a month agoFantastic pie shop! I heard about them from my colleagues about how delicious their pies were, and I had to see for myself. I got the Sweeney pastie and steak and ale pie! My husband and I enjoyed both, but the steak and ale pie was his favourite! Full of flavour with perfect pastry! Will be coming back to try the other pies. My only regret is that I haven't visited sooner.

a month agoUpon arriving, you're greeted by a nice lady at the fridge counter where you can buy pies for takeaway. These are about £5 each and a decent size. But if you casually walk towards the back, you'll find a large seating where time has stood still - giving victorian Coach House meets Westend pub. It was a bit unclear how things work, but I overheard that there is table service. We arrived about 12-1, and the pies were a bit limited due to cooking new batches, but it wasn't a big issue. The pies are £10 when dining, which is steep jump from a take-away, we ordered chips (these are home made from fresh potato) and you'll get a bowl of chips, we also ordered gravy and two pies. Refreshingly, there is no service charge, which I think was fair given the markup and ultimately little service needed or given (not that it was bad). Would I return? Yes, it's quirky, cool and decent quality. We also got some to take home. I wish the pies were heated in the oven when eating in, rather than a microwave to keep the bottom of the pastry crisp and not a bit harder when cooler, but It didn't majorly cause taste issues. It is worth a try and support an independent business.

a month agoA must do tradition in Reading is visit Sweeney & Todd for one of their amazing pies. A great meeting place for catching up with friends as well! The pies are delicious and come in a wide range of choices, with veggie options available. My personal favourite is steak & stilton but there are so many options to choose from!

2 months agoI absolutely love this place! Their pies are amazing - I always travel miles just to get them because I honestly haven't had better pies anywhere else. Me and my partner really appreciate that it's a friendly, family-run business where the staff actually knows what they're talking about when it comes to their products.Can't wait to come back!
