Bains at Stenhouse Cross.

Bald Baker at Oxgangs and Slateford is alright too but some pies are a hit and a miss.

Might try some M&S ones. They're shortbread is incredible so their mince pies must be good as well.

Absolutely to die for, can't beat an Xmas mince pie. 

Have to say Baynes version was pretty good, haven’t tried the Greggs ones.

Butchers are supplying pubs with pies , Mark McGill in Curry is superb for everything.

No been to Greggs for about 3 years.

Their prices just went ridiculous 

Supply issues due to Brexit.

“I don’t like Greggs, so I’m going to insult people that do”

 

The level of snobbery on this forum is incredible. 
No doubt those same people will be all over this post with their awesome wit.

I don't mind a Greggs steak bake now and again but the price now is way beyond what they are really worth. Baynes or the Stephens bakeries all over Fife are better than Greggs most of the time anyway.

I'm confused.  Are we talking about actual mince pies containing minced beef/pork/whatever... or the wee Xmas things that contain "mincemeat" spicy fruit stuff ?

Me too.

 

I read the thread title, but not the OP.

 

I (wrongly, it turns out) assumed it was about 'Scotch pies'.

 

Christmas mincemeat pies are a whole different thing!  I love them.

 

I've never had one from Greggs though.

I agree re Stephens,  but I only buy Greg's foe the mince pies, everything else is quite poor

Savoury mince or sweet mince (Xmas)? Asking for a friend. 
 

 

Tell your friend it's the Christmas one.  :thumb:

 

The OP mentioned Xmas, so I assume its the sweet 'mincemeat' one.

Roger, quite like a sweet version/Xmas ones. M & S normally do decent ones, not sampled any this season however. 
 

Never in Greggs these days but will swing by to try them. 
 

This thread has potential for tracking Xmas mince pie recommendations. 👍

Love their pies. They took over malones on Slateford as well. Also, Mark is a PHM
