“My review is on the new Pukka Pasty I saw in my local Tesco. As the pies are generally pretty good I thought I'd try the pasties.
The experience was was not good at all. It said ready "heat or eat" on the packet so I heated it for 15 minutes. It was horrible a bit mashed I guess for quickness of processing but the potatoes was hard even after heating it up so it was hot right trough. I tried later the other one cold of course the potato was like bullets. I sent my contact details to them and filled the form in with barcode details etc, no details could be put in but it said I would be contacted soon. That was 4th March sent. And nothing has come back from them
Terrible customer service and terrible pasties!”
“What has happened to these once wonderful pies???.No more flaky top pastry.No more stodgy bottom pastry ,and the filling,well there isnt any. Lots of regulars are starting to say the same, i for one will be looking elsewhere from now on...such a shame they have become a poor pie. pukka listen to your reviews before you loose all your customers!!!”
“If you like a pie with a tasty thick sauce, but with minimal filling then pukka pies are for you. A steak pie should have decent pieces of steak in it, not just the sauce and pastry.”
“Ok taste but where, oh where, is the meat!Only 3 tiny pieces in each pie! Shameful! They used to be great British pies. Now they are just trading on past success.”
“Absolutely awful!! Fatty, chewy and very little beef in an All Steak pie! Whats happened Pukka?? I had a Chicken and Mushroom pie too....very little chicken and the pieces I had were that of a typical uniformed chunk of cheap Thailand Chicken breast, lacked flavour too. Pukka aren't what they were a few years ago.”
“You should be ashamed of yourselves at pukka.you are ripping people off..your pies used to be so good now they are absolute rubbish.all gravy tiny bits of meat.still charging the same price for a totaly inferior product..”
“I thought they were a quality pie I could not believe how little chicken was in the pie about a teaspoon of small chunks and a overpowering smell of smoked bacon from the sauce it was our 1st and last Pukka pie never again.👎”
“I used to be a fan of these pies cos they were really bait better than rest. But no more. Just finished a steak pie that had ONE a piece of beef so they can’t be done under the trade description act. But calling it a gravy pie would be more honest. Never again.”
“I have been a fan of pukka all steak pies for ages. However it seems that when Tesco sell them on special at £1 the meat is limited to tiny pieces and not the tender chunks that I enjoyed.
Will not be buying them again until the quality improves”
“I've always liked pukka pies but they seem to of added gelly stuff not the graveyard ,we an not eat them awfull threw the lot in bin.what ever you have changed it messed up quality,we no longer buy.”
“Very disappointed in this product. I purchased a steak & kidney pie from asda. Never again . There was no meat in tge pie or kidney. Don't be fooled there gravy pies. Aldi make a better steak & kidney pie. Over rated. Made in leicester aswell.”
