London Pie & Mash Shops
|
|
Visiting London in a couple of weeks and fancy a P&M. Unfortunately literally all the ones I used to go in seem to have shut down over the past few years.
Googling seems very unreliable, throwing up loads of outdated info, and a Time Out article from less than 12 months ago contains 2 which were closed last time I was in town.
Preferably quite central (staying in the West end). Seems there's a Cookes in Hoxton but hoping it's not presenting itself as a hipster gluten free type place?
Thanks in advance, any info appreciated, yfc, discuss etc. Thanks

I vaguely remember a saveloy & pease pudding stall in Leyton opposite the old bus garage as a kid. I know my old nan was a fan, so it must have been quite popular back in the day.

Question for some of the older boys on here - wad Pease pudding and saveloys more popular years ago? I ask because Lionel Bart (born in stepney) put them into Food Glorious Food and you've got that remaining outpost on Chris street and I used to get fed the stuff every week with ham as a kid.

Maureen's doesn't do the Savloy and Pease Pudding in Chrisp St, it's Ivy's cafe that does that.

Yeh, the Bow rd pie mash was on the front by Bromley high st.
There was one in Burdett road donkeys years ago as well, which passed the test.

Wansteadman is right it was at Bow Church. I was home in April and wanted P&M and was taken to one in Hornchurch,it was terrible so if anyone is thinking of going there - don't!

Noted Pie and Eels in Leytonstone.....£5 for a double double. I believe it used to be Georges of Canning Town.
One thing I want to try is the saveloy and pease pudding at Maureens.

Re: London Pie & Mash Shops
Anyone been to "Cockneys" in Ladbroke Grove? The name puts me off a bit but it's closer to the hotel and sites than anywhere else.

its great - real old school pie n mash shop. Huge vat Of mash on the go - salt of the earth types both sides of the counter. Alot of qpr go there now that cookes has shut - that place was pretty awesome and had a great history with The Who and all http://www.getwestlondon.co.uk/news/business/end-era-pie-shop-closes-9739495
Now of course the winds of change in the area with everywhere becoming a fucking fabric shop or bush meat ( geddit?±) parlour followed by gentrification means theyve gone forever
