I've not tried the burgers, sausages, or noodles, but out of the pies my favourite is the christmas one.

The pies made by the chef at Morecambe sell on their ground at £2.50 but one of the big London stores, think it was Fortnum and Masons has taken them so I read, and they will sell at £12.99 each. I would love to try one so I hope we draw them away in the cup.

I dont like the one we sell as I think that they are too dry with insufficient gravy. As they say each to their own but they are not for me.

I've tried all 4 of the main pies (despite only ever ordering two!) and my order is:

Chicken and Ham
Chicken Balti
Steak and Ale
Vegetarian (although still quite nice)

TBF it's all shit and if you bought it anywhere else you'd send it back in a heartbeat ... but it's a footie stadium I guess so put me down for a Balti but not that friggin Xmas Pie which was utter cack

I think that may a bit unreasonable as I have found, particularly, the chicken & ham and steak and ale pies particularly satisfactory (remember where we are)

Agreed the Xmas pie was a little bit disappointing !

I think that the club are obsessed with pies.over the season I think there must have been 6 or 7 different flavoured pies on offer.
While winning awards for these pies is great the world does not revolve around pies.

I understand that the club has to offer food that can be mas produced.

I love burgers and surely they can be sold in more varieties.ie chilli,bacon,mayo how easy is that to do just change the topping.

Pizza it's flour,water,tomato sauce & cheese how hard can that be to do

It was Harrods and they are £9.99, but accurate apart from that!

Yep, maybe harsh but the novelty has worn off a bit and I get too many either too dry or too cold or both. I'm not grumbling though, had far worse!

The burgers were nice at the start of last season, when they used to put a big thick slice of tomato in plus a bit of lettuce. Then they changed them so you just got a smear of relish and they've been shit since then.

The burgers from The Swan BBQ.........it's very very near the AMEX so it sort of counts. And knocks ten types of shit out of the burgers at the stadium. Failing that. Chicken & Ham

I was a steak pie man for most of last season til I stuck my neck out and tried a balti, which I also enjoyed. Can't really pick between the two, just depends what I fancy on the day. Both delicious!

I know what i'd like to eat at half time...unfortunately Gullys Girls are too busy to indulge me :smokin:
 


None of it now, not sure why but every type of pie gives me heartburn and the taste of herbs repeating on me for about 24 hours afterwards.
Burger was rubbish.
Hot dog was probably made of dog.
Even tried the noodles, which were ok but not seven and a half quids worth of ok.:rant:

I have increased my beer consumption to compensate the shortfall of food purchase.:thumbsup:

They are brilliant and excellent VFM. The beer is also very good in there. I went in there for the first time pre Birmingham game but will make that a must every game now.
