B’way+8th) which hasn’t been mentioned very much lately… Popped in there the other day and as an Aussie I have to say it was disappointing. They only wholesale to this store now and so the selection is as big. Frankly the pies weren’t up to scratch, though i have to say i have pretty high pie standards ;) The sausage roll was all right though.

It was interesting. I probably wouldn't get it again. You should try one though if you haven't already. I can't wait to go back and try a meat pie. They have Thai curry meat pie on the menu. Hmmm!

You should try a lammington, meat pies (like steak or steak and gravy) MUST be eaten with tomato sauce, chicken pies are good without.
