Question Best Pies in the UK
I know that the best pies that can be bought are sold by Petchs butchers in Great Ayton, Cleveland ... up in the North East (fantastic price too!).

Now I am living in Hampshire, I really miss them ... it's a long drive to get some too

Anyone know of any other outlets that sell REALLY special pies? Petch's always have a queue out the door ... thats what I'm looking for (when the locals queue for them, they MUST be good - especially when they have been sold for over 40 years!).

So, come on, help out a bloke who needs building up

Pete

Try Sweeney Todds in Reading (run by Vicars the butchers). Best sausages from the shop on the Northbrook St bridge in Newbury.

Homemade are always the best. You know what goes into them as well. Mrs Chip makes a cracking steak and kidney.
