[Food] Best pies in Sussex?

[Hugo Rune]

The Family and I pass Turners Pies in Rustington on way to and from the AMEX so stopped in on our way home on Saturday. A fine pie shop and no mistake. Got me to thinking where does the best pies in Sussex?

What better thread could you get during British Pie Week??

What’s your favourite filling?

Turner's meal deal, a superb pie with mash, peas and gravy!

Baker Street. The lamb and mint *drool*

Another vote here for Bangers lamb and mint. In fact I've just been triggered into going to get a couple for me supper. All the pies are superb there, including this month's special: a glorious Hunters Chicken

There are threads when we will miss BG completely and this is one of them !!!!!

Yes. I feel I shall have to try and take up the torch ....

Pukka Pies. They should sell them at the Amex. Way better than Piglets and will earn more money as they're much more popular. I've been told the only reason we sell Piglets is because Martin Perry made a deal with the Piglets founder when we were at Withdean and Paul Barber has been unable to re-negotiate it.

You think Martin Perry signed a 10+ year contract with Piglets or something? Pukka Pies are pretty poor quality anyway.

Did Martin Perry put Piglets into Arsenal, Leicester, Southampton etc too? Far from a big Piglets fan but I do appreciate the fact Albion are supporting local businesses where they can - rather than mass produced, low cost, bottom feeder food.

Not sure where Duke of Wellington get their pies from, but they are pretty decent.

Hmmmmm, fingers in pies. Very messy!

I've only had one pie from Turners, an individual minced beef and onion pie. It was full to the brim and very good.

If what you have just said was to be taken seriously, then l take issue with it. Piglets Steak & Ale is on a completely different level to Pukka's Steak & Gristle counterpart, with much better quality ingredients than Pukka.

I'm surprised frankly that Piglet's haven't been mentioned before, a complete taste sensation when they were introduced upon the opening of the Amex, and provided yhrey are eaten when still fresh, and not been subject to standing under the lights on the server for an hour or more, are still one of the best pies produced in Sussex in my opinion.

With apologies to my late friend Brian, who l know was a confirmed Pukka man.

No of course it wasn't serious, Jeez. I even said I was 'taking up the torch' and made a post in BG's style as a homage to our dear departed friend, knowing he'd always stuck up for Pukka pies.

But yes, when the Amex opened I thought that the pies were among the best, no, were THE best pies I'd ever had. In my opinion (just my opinion) the standard has slipped massively since those early days. To stress again, just my opinion, before someone says indignantly that they think they're still as good as ever.

Classic pies, the new ones are a bit too fancy. Expensive.

I met the owner and his wife a few years ago, lovely couple.
