I am going in the morning on my way back up the road. Meeting in Bolton first thing and then hunters for some supplies and home. Will probably go to Paul’s as well and get some frozen pasties for the freezer at home. Bennetts lane is a decent chippy isn’t it. Silly prices It is cheap and decent, I usually get chips, peas and gravy with loads of scraps for 2 quid, if you want a decent fish though, you need to go Whitesides down the road Quote

(also £2.45 for a meat pie) Their potato cakes are ok but can't get near my sister's home made. I think they were about £2.70 last time I went. Scandalous really, although I’m always hearing about how badly run the company is, so I suppose they need to sell at premium prices. Agreed on potato cakes. My dads are the best I’ve ever had, but he refuses to make them now as he makes such a mess. More flour based compared to Greenhalghs. Quote

Escobarp Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 Oh and meat and potato pie 5/10. Place is a myth. Not saying it didn’t use to good possibly but it is sub standard now Quote
boogs Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 Missed a trick not getting the beef scotch pie. The gravy in them and strips of meat are tasty as. Used to work round the corner from there, not been for about 18 months or so. Probably did my waistline a favour moving work places. Quote

I won’t be trying the pastie today as I’m out for a Thai meal tonight before places shut Quote
