My last 4 tins of Baxters over priced soup.. Chicken Broth - rotten veg was found. Cockaleekie soup - soil grit found in the leeks because of the way they cut and prep the leeks. You are not suppose... See more

Vile & Disgusting

Absolute joke of a company
Absolute joke of a company, used to be really good but now they clearly don't care about their customers or product. Bought a tin of chicken broth for lunch and there was one measly piece of chicken in the whole watery slop they call soup,
RIP OFF PIES
Frey Bentos Steak and Kidney Pie should be called Frey Bentos Water and Gravy Slop, I think they are ripping customers off with their so called pies
Then are the best in Scarborough and…
Then are the best in Scarborough and the staff are very friendly and helpful and the food is the best and very good aswell I loved it
A shame
Have bought Baxter’s soup since it first was sold.Had tin of leek and potato today and did not enjoy. I am looking for another brand now because it was not good enough.I am 92 and always bought baxter soup what went wrong. I fetched tin from bin to check it was Baxter’s just to be sure.
What happened to the quality ?
Bought a can of Baxter’s Minestrone soup in mid December with no pasta in it whatsoever. Not sure if it was a faulty batch.
Very watery and flavourless too.
Emailed them and they said they would send through a Baxter’s voucher as a gesture of good will. Never received it.
Sign of the times unfortunately.
Now like dishwater.
Used to be my favourite, now like dish water. Avoid and stick with Heinz.
Baxters Minestrone
Baxters Minestrone. What happened???? It was always my favourite, bought it regularly. Now it tastes like tomato cup-a-soup - cheap and nasty. I see my experience isn't the only one. What's going on at Baxters? It is definitely not an improved recipe.
Supposed to be chicken broth I have had…
Supposed to be chicken broth I have had thicker bachelors cuppa soup pathetic never buy again

Even the dog did not touch it lol
Yuk yuk yuk

New Recipe Baxters Cream of Tomato soup - YUK
Just opened a tin of Baxters new & improved Cream of tomato soup recipe. What a disappointment! The tomato flavour is now so tangy and over powering that I wont be buying it again. The original recipe was far superior to other tinned brands, It was creamy and flavoursome but now it tastes like the Heinz slop!
Baxters you've lost another customer.
Just had a tin of Baxter’s Spicy…
Just had a tin of Baxter’s Spicy Parsnip Soup. It’s changed completely. Thin, watery and tasteless. In common with their other soups, it’s now also under seasoned.
Not Souper
I have just poured away the larger part of a can of Baxters Royal Game soup.
I don't eat/drink oxtail or Brown Windsor soup because I don't like the taste or feel of either and they always look so unappetising. Baxters Royal Game soup is worse than either!
It really didn't taste of anything much, certainly not game, but the feeling in my mouth was very gelatinous - like I imagine a half-boiled donkey would feel on its way to being turned into glue.
I urge no-one else to go through what I went through and Baxters to trace all retailers and have them withdraw it from sale.
Souper it is definitely not.
I love your soup range and they are…
I love your soup range and they are really good to help me when I've lost my appetite due to my health problems. I particularly love your minestrone. Which is like a meal in itself. But there is one small problem, in my opinion and that is the peas you use. They are hard on the outside and then powdery when you bite in to them. May I recommend an alternative. Why not swap the peas for sweetcorn. They would provide even more colour and a touch of sweetness. I understand factory processes cooking the soups and believe the swap wouldn't cause you any major changes. You will always be my choice when buying my groceries even with this high inflation we are all suffering. Thankyou so much for a top quality product x dinky rogers
Another disappointed customer!
Oh dear Baxters, you've turned your Ministrone soup into a watery standard based vegetable drink with penne pasta in it...yet another company's standards gone. I'm making my own soups from now on at half the price and double the quality! You need consumer feedback to improve your product before going under....
Country Garden soup
Country Garden soup
Finely diced carrot and potato, a few peas, some rice, but mainly watery liquid. They must make a huge profit on such cheap ingredients. Not a satisfying lunch and poor value for money. Will not be buying again.
Complete and utter waste of money all…
Complete and utter waste of money all you get for your money is soggy pastry and brown water
Highland broth, more like highland sloth
I cracked open a can of good ol Baxters, hoping to satisfy my sore throat. Much to my dismay, I was not awarded with the promised 1.5% beef or mutton, I'd dare say there was barely 1%. As for the handfuls of veg, it was neither succulent or packed with flavour. Please avoid this brand at all costs.
P.S. there is such a thing as to much pearl barley
