PUTNEY PIES

Putney Pies is a classic example of British comfort food done right, with a menu bursting at the seams with pie offerings. The beef wellington had a flaky embrace that could make you weep with joy. Christina and her friends devoured the mac and cheese balls and chicken pies, while Pippa, the star server, made sure no one went home without leftovers wrapped tighter than a mummy. But let’s be real, it's not all sunshine and rainbows; some punters have pointed out that the place is starting to show its age, and the décor is more shabby than chic. If you're in the mood for a lively vibe, give it a try, but don’t expect Michelin stars here; it’s all about the hearty pies.

But beware, the toilet situation isn't winning any awards and the atmosphere can get raucous later in the evening. So, if you're looking to have a quiet dinner, you might want to pencil in your visit early on. Overall, it’s a solid choice if you want to indulge in a pie that’ll have you feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.
