“I like Pukka pies and have always enjoyed their steak and kidney pies. I love kidney. One of my favourite dishes is creamed kidneys so I like to be able to taste some kidney in there. Up until now (20 May 2020), the pies have been quite nice. But this evening my pie had no kidney in it at all. That's serious, so far as I am concerned. I might try another steak and kidney pie, but probably not.”
“Thought I would treat myself to a Pukka Steak Pie,wished i had not bothered,too much gravy ,hardly any meat,very poor for the price and wont begoing there again”
“Three pieces of awfully chewy beef terrible,trading standards should be looking at these,advise folk not to buy ,hard neck calling them steak and kidney Bill from Fife”
“Awful... OK the pastry and gravy was good but the steak (in my steak and kidney pie) was tough and chewy.... every bit spat out (apart from the tough bits that got stuck between my teeth). I can only presume the kidney component is part of the gravy.
Thinking of eating one.... don't!!!”
“When Pukka pies first came out they were a quality product. I’ve just had one that was disgusting. Nothing but gravy and gristle. Why such a quality product has gone down hill is a great shame, selling such a poor quality product will be their demise!”
“Steak & Kidney Pie had no kidney and very little steak. Just felt like I was eating pastry and gravy. The chicken and mushroom pie was slightly better but the description of “chunks of chicken” was an exaggeration. I don’t normally buy ready made pies but was seduced by the packaging and marketing. As these were bought from Tesco was the quality compromised for the price I wonder ??? If these pies are the norm I definitely wouldn’t repeat the experience”
