Doctor FinnBarr Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Where can I find the best pie? I don,t mean football pies, we all know the so called merits of the Killie pie, I mean out and about pies, pies that you can buy any day of the week. I think I know but maybe someone knows better! The best one that I,ve found is in Lanarkshire,in the Village bakers at Kilncadzow (not Poland) on the A721 between Carnwath and Carluke. Mince pies to die for, the pastry ain,t big enough for the mince and gravy! Take a spoon! And as for the merangues...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambos are go! Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 The Butchers in Juniper Green near the Victoria wine or Haddows does a very good pie similar too the excellent Bains version.

Carl Fredrickson Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Robertsons meat factory at Eskbank - they supply loads of chippies but you can buy them direct.

holymoly Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Baines at Stenhouse Cross for me too, superb!! Another vote for Baines. It's not a regular scotch pie though, with the minging grey goo. They have quality mince and gravy in their bad boys. Superb. If they served them at tynie, season ticket sales would go through the roof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant believe my pie sniffing senses didnt pick that up on a windy day The best part is....Im friends with the production manager! (our friendship wasnt based on where he works!) As well as amazing pies, they do steak pies (most of the "home made" ones in chippies are made by them), sausages, black pudding, burgers etc. Great when you are doing a BBQ as they will put a pack together for you and the meat has NO un-natural additives. A dozen quality mutton pies for under ?6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
