Pie night at The Constant Service in Brighton is very good, wash it down with a pint of Harvey's.

It's on Monday's unfortunately, which is one of the nights I have my kids - so I rarely get to take advantage

An Appleton's Pork Pie from the Royal Oak at Ripon.

As a Yorkshireman the [i]Only[/i] pie is a pork pie.

binners - that pie you baked looks so yummy, maybe you should open your own pie shop, just think how much money you'd save?
Maybe profits would be in your tum though!

A student friend of mine made a "special" pie for his housemates as his mum was an amazing cook n made him meals and they kept stealing them, hey presto a chubb (shit dog food) pie was created, was consumed overnight by his housemates and they asked for another!!! Still to this day they dont know lol

Bitter End Cockermouth or Kirkstyle up the valley
both of which sound rude/euphemism.
Don't do pies in restaurants, pies should be individual sized and eaten stood up or in the wilds, cutlery should not be involved.

What about Pi in *ahem* Chorlton? More of a bar than a pub I guess but the pies are good (Pie minster)

Tebay services Donk? You'll be referring to their 'Growlers', I presume? We always stock up when passing

portlyone - I used to live just down the road from Pi, and the Pie minster pies are indeed fantastic!

quite partial to the lamb&damson myself and of course the westmorland pie - yes I know it's sold by the slice so breaks my own rules but it is gorgeous. or atleast it used to be, last one I had was distinctly average dunno if they've changed the recipe or baker was just having an off day.

Remember that Northernness you were leaking on Page 1? I think it's just run out. You need a gravy IV, and quick.

Someone keep an eye on him? If he starts asking for vol-au-vents and a nice glass of rosé then he needs putting out of his misery. It's the kindest way.

bit small. honestly go to fagans. you get the whole pie (from a pie that size) rather than a slice.

Two pubs I remember having cracking pies - the Black Rabbit in Arundel, Sussex, which did the best chicken, ham and leek pie I've ever tasted, washed down with lashings of Hall and Woodhouse ales And the Volunteer Rifleman in Bath, in a wee street near the rugby ground - think it's a rugger-bugger's pub. It did far and away the best steak and kidney pie I've ever had. And I don't even like kidney.

Mill Inn in Mungrisdale

That's the place I was thinking of....multiple pie variations on the menu plus the ability to order pies and take them home (but the website doesn't mention any of that).
Julie Bradbury was in when I went and I think I stood on her foot.

I can almost see the place from my house. Might have to give it a whirl. i hear it's much improved from days of old. It'll have to be good to keep them away from the [url= http://www.ainscoughs.co.uk/The-Eagle-Child/eagle-and-child-home.html ]Eagle and Child[/url]*

*which has had a fantastic chicken pie on now and again. but it's not the sort of pub crikey would approve of.... and none of you must go. Ever.

3 Wise Monkeys Alnwick, proper steak and Ale pies made at a small home bakers with local beer. They were designed for the pub to be the perfect pie, lots of filling and not too runny so you can bite the pie without it becoming a Banjo pie whilst enjoying your pint.

Now you can't go there tonight but all the best pies I have tasted were in New Zealand. Even the steak and cheese ones from petrol stations were amazing.
