About Bakehouse Pies
We have been making and baking our pies and steamed meat puddings supplying the better end of the licensed trade for more years than we care to remember.
Some of our recipes go back over 40 years and we still use the same ingredients and cooking methods that we did all those years ago. We make everything from scratch in our own kitchens from the short crust and puff pastry through to the fillings which are prepared daily by our cooks.
We are known for the quality and quantity of our fillings, as an example our Tavern Pies are larger than our competitors, they weigh around 320 grams, packed with flavour and very generously filled.
Our customers return again & again and with over 80 UK Pie Awards we must be doing something right!
Over the years some of our customers have moved to other locations outside of our own van delivery service and were unable to obtain our products as we normally only supply our customers direct to their kitchens. However, we are now able to offer a weekly delivery service to most parts of mainland UK.
If you do not know our products or have not tried the quality, we are always happy to send you samples as we firmly believe that the ‘proof of the pudding is in the eating’.

We offer one of the UK’s largest hand crafted pie ranges
FULLY BAKED TAVERN PIES 320g
These hearty Pies are packed in boxes of 6 and come in to you with 7 days chilled shelf life.
Like most of our hot eating Pies we recommend serving them with a separate jug of gravy when presenting the pie to your customer as we tend to fill the pie with the filling rather than pad them out with gravy.
All our Pies can be frozen – just freeze off on the day of delivery and defrost before reheating.
FRESH FULLY COOKED STEAMED SUET MEAT PUDDINGS 420g
These ‘Puds’ are a substantial 420grams and traditionally steamed cooked, they just need microwaving for 4 minutes (in its container). They are now ready to serve, once again we recommend serving with a separate jug of gravy.
There are 6 different fillings in the range.
Due to their size of 420g there is normally a bit of a wow factor when the ‘Pud’ is served to the customer.
All ‘Puds’ arrive with a 7 day chilled life and will freeze perfectly – defrost before reheating.
DELI PIES 220g
These fully baked 220g Deli Pies are the smaller brother of our successful larger Tavern Pie. The fillings are made to the same exacting standards and are suitable for the smaller appetite or a lighter meal.
INDIVIDUAL HAND RAISED PORK PIES 230g
We still use the same recipes and methods for making the traditional Hot Water pastry and pork fillings that the company’s founders used some 50 years ago in the making of this time honoured range.
Our hand made pies are exactly that – Handmade. Not too many bakers can make Hot Water pastry successfully. This is a skill that is normally passed down the generations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How soon will I receive my pies after ordering?
Order any day up to midday on a Tuesday and we will make and bake your order which will be with you by the Thursday. Call Martin for specific delivery requirements on 01865 600 652
How long do the pies keep in the fridge?
Pies come with a minimum of 7 days refrigerated life.
Can I freeze the pies?
What temperature do I set the oven?
185c for 20-25 mins. Always ensure the pie is piping hot before consuming. If you prefer a crispier pastry, you may want to take the pie out of the foil to reheat.
Can the tavern range pies be reheated from frozen?
For best results we strongly recommend that you reheat from chilled/defrost.
However, if you do reheat from frozen cover the pastry lid with foil and reheat in the oven at 180 degrees for around 45 minutes. Important: Do check the centre of the pie is at least 72 degrees before serving.
Can I microwave the pub range pie?
For best results we recommend reheating in a conventional oven
How do I reheat the suet meat puddings?
Place the Pudding on a microwaveable dish pastry side down (leaving the black container on the pudding ) add water to the dish say a fifth of a cup, this will cause the pastry lid to swell sealing the pudding in the container and preventing the delicious filling from spilling out.
Microwave for 4 minutes on full power, leave to stand for 2 minutes, the pudding needs to be piping hot and we recommend the core temperature be 72 degrees.
Using a kitchen slice remove the pudding from the dish leaving the residual water in the dish. Place the pudding on a plate, remove the black container and you are ready to serve. Like our PUB RANGE pie we recommend serving a separate jug of gravy with our puds, for presentation pour a small amount over the top of the pudding prior to serving.
Our Puds can also be reheated in the traditional way by placing in a Bain Marie, we recommend this way if serving a number of people.
Preheat oven to Electric 180 degrees or Gas mk4, using a roasting dish place puddings (in the black container ) in the dish pastry side facing up. Fill the roasting dish with hot water halfway up the side of the black containers, cover roasting dish tightly with foil and place in the oven.
The object here is to reheat the Puds by steam and the reheating time will depend on how hot the water is that you put in the dish, the Puds need to be piping hot to 72 degrees, say 25/30 minutes in the oven, don’t worry if you leave in longer as this method of reheating will not spoil the product.
Make sure you take care by using oven gloves both for placing in the oven and for removing from the oven, bearing in mind that the dish contains very hot water.
Leave the tavern range pies in the foil or not?
It depends. If you prefer a crispier pastry, you may want to take the pie out of the foil to reheat.
Do you supply Gluten Free products?
Unfortunatly not at this time.
