Haffners Pies sponsor Colne FC stadium.

[Dressinggown]

Pity that they are not available on the Turf.

However, they are available at a number of outlets in the Burnley and Padiham area. Check the website for details.

The Meat & Potato and the Meat & Onion are just the best.

I live close to Bertwistles in Padiham which does great pies but still no match for Haffners.

[ClaretsPadiham]

Haffners are the best about, I love a cold Meat & Potato.

Clayton Park are decent too, Peppered steak.

[Tribesmen]

How much are pies these days ?

For those of you who love a haffners pie (I do, love em) then try out the steak and potato pie made by Milltown pies up near queens gate bus depot. Superb they are.

About £2.50 at a reasonable outlet. Be £5 on the turf for the same pie….

Aye, Milltown Pies are in a different league.

[fatboy47]

I like a pie now and then.

I saw something posted the other day that a pie & pint was going to be £10

[Funkydrummer]

Haffner's pies are not available on The Turf but are available in the
little kiosk in the fanzone.

If a pint was £6 last season that sounds likely

They'd put their prices down if people didn't buy 'em.

[BurnleyFC]

Haffners pie and peas was £6.50 in the fan zone last season, but only 3 quid at the little butty shop across from the Park View.

[bumba]

They only put them up due to premier league prices so going off there price rise I'm thinking we'll have the original price reinstated for championship prices
I won't hold my breath.

Absolute rip off for cheap crap pies and lager on the ground.

[Bordeauxclaret]

The queues seemed to be noticeably down last season whenever I saw them so they’ve either got incredibly quick with the service or people are voting with their feet.

I think speed of service can safely be ruled out, if it is the same staff next season hopefully they have spent the summer training

I've given up on my HT pint, and haven't bought anything to eat on the Turf in years. Anyhow, this will most likely be our last season as season ticket holders. We have other commitments and those 12.30pm KO times sure mess with them. Fans are secondary when it comes to TV rights, but we all know this.

Sadly football clubs bow to TV companies and the non attending fan is more important to the them than match going supporters.

Found out a couple of weeks ago that my Grandma used to make Haffners pies!

[GetIntoEm]

Milltown are generally decent if you can look past the hygiene rating, i like them a lot.

far better than Haffners, which i've always found to be a bit of Urban Legend, they are ok, but nothing special to me. You'll find better in most butchers/bakers shops. and i know my pies.

[karatekid]

Go to the Haffners bakery shop on marlborough street in Burnley. It is in the actual bakery and consists of a table surrounded by lots of pies just out of the ovens and a price list. It’s open until 1pm. Can’t get fresher than that.

That's great to know. Thanks for the heads up.

We had been going to Haffners for years, we even went when they had their bakery on Clarence St, but nowadays I prefer Milltown, Hanson, or TD Laws in Hassy or Alpes in Clitheroe.

I'd be happy with a Haffners pie if I was watching footie in Colne.

oh yeah, dont get me wrong, a haffners trumps any football stadium pie everyday.

i just dont think they are the "Lord and Savior" of pies like some people talk about them.

Alpes is a good shout, if you catch a warm sausage roll from there you're in for a treat.

[Steve1956]

I just miss a good Lancashire pie,all I get up here in Scotland is rock hard pastry mashed potato topped with baked beans pies ,I've seriously considered returning home just to get a decent pie...but the wife wouldn't consider moving back to Lancashire....I suppose I could divorce her.

[ALHAMBRA 1925]

Great shout for Alpes sausage rolls K'in awesome.
Alpes is a quality butchers over in Clitheroe.

I regularly smuggle pies across the border to stock up.

One of the hardest things about living in Scotland as a Lancastrian is the complete lack of decent pies. Especially difficult for someone who at one stage lived and worked in Wigan, where the good folk are known as 'pie eaters' by those in less enlightened nearby towns.

I may visit an alternative supplier to stock up in future, but have done so on the journey north at a bakers just off the A65 between Skipton and Kendal before joining the M6; Endmoor Bakery in Endmoor.

[Tribesmen]

Funny you see very few pies over here in Ireland , now seen them in Tesco's but never bought one .

[Clovius Boofus]

The one good thing about the colder months - it gives me a good excuse to have pies more often.

[ŽižkovClaret]

mmmmm pies

[Foshiznik]

If you are ever over the Fylde coast, i would highly recommend a pie from The Pork Shop in Poulton-le-Fylde.

I will second that recommendation!

I had one today, on your recommendation. It was magnificent. Thank you.

[Quickenthetempo]

Let's hope the sponsor fee is enough to pay for some new drainage.
They can't be having all them games called off again this season.

This thread wetted my appetite for an English pie,so I went to the CO-OP and got 4 Hollands frozen ones I know they are a pale imitation of a pie but in my current crisis of having to eat bobbins Scottish ones any port in a storm,I find it incredulous the Scottish are clueless when it comes to making a tasty pie.

[Dressinggown]

Hollands are possibly the worst pies I have come across.

The Meat & Potato (Potato & Meat ?) consists of soggy pastry filled with some form of potato soup.

Rank.

I know they are rank but less rank than the pies you get up here,mashed potato and baked bean pies lived here 5 years now and still waiting to enjoy my first Scottish pie.

Try and find a scotch pie. Like an old fashioned meat pie but in water pastry, really tasty

[firstclaret]

Kilmarnock pie available in ALDI Scotland. I want to try one.

You sure you didn't microwave it? That sounds like a microwave pie to me. If you cooked it properly and it still came out like that, my sympathies. at least you'll know not to buy them again.
