Holland pies have changed for the worse, just had a meat and potato and the pastry was terrible, it was almost burnt and very thick, I’ve never seen that in all the years, I’m done with them.

Well I'm vegan myself

Well I'm vegan myself. So get Hollands pies for my dog only. Having given my dog different Hollands meat pies. I'd probably say the 'Meat Pie' small round one gets devoured the quickest. Not a conventional review per se, but there it is.

What has happened to Holland pies

What has happened to Holland pies? I grew up eating Holland pies and they were famously great. Not now. I’ve never tasted anything so bad. That’s all the pie flavours. Are they using cheap dog food? 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Large pice of sharp bone !

My grandson found a large piece of bone in his steak and kidney pudding . Sent it back to Hollands who think that £10 postal order and an unwillingness to communicate is acceptable for this major choke hazard ….😡

Cheap rubbish

I have just had a Holland minced steak pudding and I have to say it was terrible. Why have they go a sweet taste? The meat was rubbish and tasteless with funny texture. I had a meat pie a while ago and it was like dog food. What has happened to Holland products? A tip would be charge more for the pies but make them like they used to, not by using cheap ingredients. People would rather pay £1.50 instead of £1.00 but get a really nice pie. A local bakers near me can do it so why can’t you? I pay over £2.00 for theirs but go back over and over again.

Don't be fooled by the picture on the packet.

Bought a 2 pack of Holland's peppered Steak pies, expected the pie to look a little like the photograph on the packet they where in. First time I had ever bought the pies and was so disappointed when it came to eating them. The filling was a beige coloured gravy with no pieces of steak, I would describe it as a load of tasteless mush, totally un-appetising. A week earlier I had bought two packs of holland's mince pies which were quite thin and again filled with a mushy gravy so due to the peppered steak pies showing a photo of pieces of steak and dark rich looking gravy I thought they would be ok. I won't waste my money buying Holland's pies in the future.

Shrinkflation rip off!

Got a pack of 4 meat and potato pies from our local Herons freezer shop.
£4 for 4, used to be £2!
Opened them up once home, the size of 2 pence pieces!
All dry pastry with no filling.
What's happened???
Never again - Pukka Pies from now on...

Had these for the first time tonight for tea bought from Iceland. They were tasteless very dry with no gravy filling it was the worst pie I have ever had it ended up 3/4 in the bin it was horrible won’t buy any hollands pies again and the rest of their pies are going down hill on quality. Not Like They Used to Be.

Holland's Pepper Gristle

I regularly eat Holland's Meat, Potato and Meat and Cheese and Onion pies, so expected the Pepper Steak pies to be on a parr with the other varieties.
My first pie contained one piece of steak and four or five lumps of gristle and a pepper flavoured gravy. I thought it may have been a one off and decided to try one more. The second pie was worse than the first containing only gristle and gravy.
The quality of the 'meat' (or lack of) was very disappointing. The rest of my pies are now in the bin where they belong.
I will never buy a Steak Pie from Holland's again as the meat content is disgusting and inedible.

Meatless and potatoless pies, Thought I'd try a meat & potato pie…

Thought I'd try a meat & potato pie today, I bought a pack of four Holland's, what an disgrace they were, absolutely daylight robbery, there wasn't a trace of meat in them, not much of any potato either, how Holland's stay in business god knows, they were terrible, the pastry was as if raw except the rim around top which was as hard as wood, the others will be going in the bin 😡

Very disappointed Hollands pies

Having not bought Hollands pies for a long long time, fancied some so bought a pack of 4 peppered steak. First one cooked in the oven, came out very dry and found some filling tucked in a corner; no gravy at all. Second one I thought I'd reluctantly try the microwave method. They did come out a touch better, not quite as dry but far from what Hollands used to be like. Can't say I'm looking forward to eating the last two, maybe after a night out and need some stodge; after all, anything taste alright after a load of beer. Can honestly say I won't be buying hollands again, stick to supermarket branded ones, at least any disappointment is easier on the pocket.
