Lovely pie and really buttery pastry. However.. this cost £11 which is almost double premium supermarket equivalents. I love supporting local businesses but this is expensive considering there wasn’t... See more

Great service & pies
Great scoff and delivery when you want…
Great scoff and delivery when you want it at a very good price. I'm stocked up for the immediate future but already planning to order more. Contrary to popular belief, pies can be part of a calorie controlled diet . And so say all of us.
Great taste, great people
Great taste, great service, really nice people. The best gluten free pies I have found in over a decade of looking. Some pies are slightly expensive hence the four stars.
Went to the pie shop on Church Street…
Went to the pie shop on Church Street Melton Mowbray sat at the table and had a browse through the menu we all decided what we wanted and went to order unfortunately they did not have any pies, a bit of a joke considering it was one o'clock. I had to make do with the potato and leek soup which might I add was Bland and tasteless (at a ridiculous price) I understand that new businesses have teething problems having next to nothing on the menu it's a bit ridiculous let's hope it gets better.
£17 for pie and mash hmmm ..
Lets face it, for pie and mash and drinks for four your looking at £100ish .
How long will this place last i wonder ?

Great experience
My wife and I attended the Ultimate Pie Making Workshop, Sunday 19th September.
Gaynor met us at the door, 16 of us!
Gaynor was very knowledgeable, patient and with a lovely sense of humour.
She made the event fun and relaxed.
We were very impressed with our efforts.
And have enjoyed our delicious Pork Pies .
We would happily recommend this experience
Some of the best pies I've had!
This is the first time I've bought from Brockleby's and it certainly won't be my last!
The pies are full of quality meat and fruit, obviously depending upon which pie you're having. I bought an apple pie that was full of juicy apples and just the right amount of cinnamon. The pastry was fantastic, thin and crispy. The steak and kidney pie was full of deliciously tender meat in a rich gravy.
The meat used has not been processed the halal way which was extremely important to me as I don't approve of this cruel practice. Sadly that is not the case with other makers so it's definitely worth asking/ checking as I did.
I would and already have recommend Brockleby's pies to everyone. They are right up there with the best I have had.

Lovely pies only one of the pies had a poor pastry.
Superb quality products
Superb quality products. As a widower I appreciate pies made for one person. Delivery is prompt and well packaged. I wish all the range included "small" versions. I am a very satisfied customer and have no reservations on promoting Brockley's pies.
Exceptional pies
Exceptional pies. Excellent service. Cannot find fault anywhere. Thanks for such amazing pies.
I bought several pies for the freezer…
I bought several pies for the freezer (a chicken and mushroom, a salmon and broccoli, a cheese and onion and a cherry pie) and while they were all OK- the pastry was certainly nice and crumbly- the fillings tasted quite bland. The ingredients seemed good quality but I think they lacked seasoning. I see that most people review the pies really positively so maybe it’s just a taste preference. The date of this review reflects the day we ate the last pie from the freezer.

Pie Making Session
We went along to their Pie Making event last night. Nigel was our Guide for the evening providing expertise, patience and light entertainment along the way! It was a large group, but by 8.30, we all felt we'd acquired a new skill thanks to Nigel and what we'd created looked good enough to eat (well, after we bake it!). This was a really well-organised event and delivered with style. We learned about Brockleby's business and their proud history, and even the sight of grown men in hair nets didn't ruin the evening! 👍😁. Cheers, Nigel - you were the perfect host/instructor. You kept us engaged throughout the lesson, and you made a complex task easy to follow, providing plenty of encouragement and input when and where we needed it! Thanks, Brockleby's and thanks, Nigel! A perfect evening!
Ordered 3 pies on 24/08
Ordered 3 pies on 24/08, was told I’d receive them on 27/08, they didn’t arrive. Viewed the order from Brockleby’s and found that no house number had been put in th address field.
Contacted dpd who told me that because they were perishable goods they were destroyed. Phoned Brockleby’s twice and emailed 3 times asking for the order to be resent or for a refund. Have heard nothing, non existent customer service.
It's always so quick and easy to order
It's always so quick and easy to order, the delivery is swift, the pies are well packaged (and packing returnable for reuse)...and the pies? Well, the pies are just such a treat. Love 'em!
The best pies!
Not impressed
We purchased numerous pies..
We have eaten the pork pie the pastry was soggy inside very very thick thicker thsn a normal pork pie and had big lumps of gristle in it...
They are fantastic pies
Misleading information
I ordered 2 x moos pie, salmon pie, cherry pie and bang bang pie less than 2 weeks ago.
I was disappointed to learn that the Stilton moo pie was made of lard so utterly waste of money. So then had what appeared to be a cooked cherry pie burnt when I retrieved it from the oven. It lacked any sweetness.
I was so disappointed say the least. I can’t believe the reviews are 5 stars. I am giving it 1 star for poor taste, having lard, poor content filling, burnt.
Disappointing for the price
We visited the Harrogate Food and Drink Festival over the Bank Holiday Weekend and loved the look of the Brockleby Pies.We were on holiday as a family of 6 adults and 2 children, so bought a Wild Beaver Pie,a Venison and Red Wine,a Chicken and Leek, a Cherry Pie and a Pork pie.
We were very underwhelmed based on how much we had paid.The Chicken pie was the best,the Beaver pie was OK, the Venison pie was bland and tasteless, the pastry was good on all of them.The Cherry pie was awful, it didn't taste of fruit!, we were so disappointed.We had bought custard to go with it and that was all we ate and the pie went into the bin.It really wasn't pleasant!!.
The Pork Pie was nice, which we would expect from Melton Mowbray. IT WAS Chunky and tasty. Such a shame for a highly anticipated family meal on holiday to be so disappointing when we had paid out so much, maybe we were just unlucky!?
