Reviewing the BEST PIE & MASH SHOP in LONDON! INCREDIBLE VALUE!

Today, I take a trip to Poplar in East London to visit Maureen's, a lovely little pie and mash shop. Now, I've been to some pretty good Pie and Mash shops on my travels so far, can we get a new entry to the top currently held by Goddards?

What I like about Gary is not just the videos, how he takes the time to reply to many comments. A personal touch like that. Cheers, Paul.

[@andrewroberts4736]

Totally agree. He's a proper bloke.

[@Dan23_7]

Agree

[@Makarsenal]

@@andrewroberts4736 what about macmaster? He also replys and likes all comments.

[@garethconnett7672]

Gary is very good at replying at comments he is one of the good guys

[@chrisryanst]

Even though I agree, I'm sure he won't be replying to every comment when he hits 50k subs and 1k comments on every video, which will see a lot sooner that we think😮 😂😂

[@pkyid]

Delighted to see Maureen’s still going strong. The food there has always been fantastic. I was born in the east end and unfortunately due to a mass exodus of locals (understandably) places like Maureen’s are now very rare. I wish them all the best and should make the effort to get down there and support them. In fact I will !

[@taraelizabethdensley9475]

I might have to take a trip to Poplar and go to Maureens, all there is near me are kebab shops ( yuck)

[@GaryEats]

It’s going very strong. Enjoy your visit!

[@walterekurtz4320]

Same. Also from the east end but became part of that exodus a few years ago. Nice that places like Maureen's and Pellicci's are still around to prove it hasn't all disappeared.

[@mainfish88]

Don’t know if I’m one of the exodus as my family moved over 20 years ago but why? What wrong with poplar?

[@JoeMarshall23]

Why is there an (understandable?) exodus of locals? Not trying to be divisive, as a Scottish plonker I'm genuinely interested.

[@self-preservationsociety7057]

You don’t have a successful family business for 50 years without what you showed us Gary , great service, clean environment, wonderful food and awesome value, well done to the owners and thanks for another great video mate

[@GaryEats]

Indeed. You're spot on!

[@bganonimouse2754]

In this day and age its outstanding to see a small, local business doing so well with their traditional menu. We should all be supporting companies like these, while enjoying their excellent food and cheap prices. Its a win win!

[@GaryEats]

Indeed. You are spot on!

[@sebgold5841]

I moved to the UK from the US 15 years ago and the first British cuisine I fell in love with was the good old pie. I'm partial to the steak or steak and kidney. I do like mine with chips but thanks to Gary, I will visit Maureen's and have it with mash... Thanks Gary!

[@GaryEats]

Excellent to hear Seb. Go and give it a go and let me know what you think!

[@sebgold5841]

Thanks Shaw, will do.

[@sebgold5841]

Will do Gary, thanks.

[@stormchaser3115]

I’m from South Africa where a pie can be a road stop or high class cuisine. It’s part of our blood. Looking very forward to trying out this pie, will take a tube there soon.

[@MichaelcookeSUFC]

There’s a reason Gary’s going stratospheric with subscribers it’s his honesty and that he’s not influenced by big names fancy prices or titles keep it up big Gaz your disrupting food reviews and reviewers in such a great way

[@GaryEats]

Wow. Thank you mate, glad you're enjoying the videos!

[@sabejreid2072]

Great!

[@walterekurtz4320]

Exactly Cookie. Gary's channel is a breath of fresh air. He reviews places across the price spectrum and rates them on their own terms - according to what we might reasonably expect from a certain kind of establishment. Of course a Michelin starred restaurant will have better ingredients, more attentive service, etc., than a greasy spoon, a chain pub or a pie and mash shop but he understands that they all have their role and judges them accordingly. I only hope he has an exercise bike, given all those fry ups and roasts he's getting through!

[@gothicgorey]

What I like about Gary he is honest and does a proper review unlike other channels. 👍

[@GaryEats]

Thanks my friend! 👍

[@jeffjones9792]

That looked proper food by proper cooks for proper people. Four round the telly here, four thumbs up. You certainly gave that one a go. Thanks for taking us along.😊

I've never given London pie and mash a second thought as the liquor puts me off as it's always too watery, and being a northern lad I'm a lover of thick gravy but seeing that luscious liquor my mouths watering. And why no knife and why am upsidedown pie. I love these local traditional quirks. Thankyou for sharing Gary. And I can't get over the price, or the beautiful looking bagel.super,super cafe.

[@GaryEats]

No problem mate, excellent value isn’t it? You can have it with gravy, just expect a lot of stick in these parts Paul 🤣 all the best mate.

[@Forestgravy90]

Pies should be eaten upside down as the bottom is softer and easier to cut into ans the thicker crust flipped over absorbs the gravy

[@Ziggylyle]

Oh wow!!!! £9.70 what an absolute bargain, and delicious as well, your face says it all, you really enjoyed it so much. You are so good at this Gary, your programmes are great, and so enjoyable. I thought it would be a 10, and deservedly so.

[@GaryEats]

Thanks so much my friend. It was a bargain and delicious all in one!

[@davidparr4556]

Hi Gary. I gave that a 10 like you. Where do you get that quality for that price? On another note, I've binged watched your entire catalogue over four evenings! I haven't done that for ANY KZbinr - nobody. The reason is simple. You are the best food reviewer on KZbin. You have also mastered the video length and getting to the point straight away, with humorous and accurate reviews delivered with fairness and integrity. Your popularity is going to skyrocket off the dial. Absolutely top draw. Keep them coming. It must be satisfying that there are no other people reviewing establishments in the way you do. You've set the benchmark. No doubt about it.

[@GaryEats]

Wow. David, I don't know what to say but thank you so much. I'm very grateful that you've spent time going through my videos to watch them (are you not bored of my face by now?) It means an awful lot that you think so highly of myself and the channel. Lost for words, thank you. All the best.

[@ftumschk]

Trivia Corner: One of Jack the Ripper's victims, Liz Stride, ran a coffee-shop with her husband in Chrisp Street, Poplar, during the 1860s. Great review, Gary, and the food looked wonderful; I really must visit Maureen's the next time I'm in the East End.

[@GaryEats]

Wow. Nice info and thank you mate. Please do!

[@donnienlefty]

Definitely, you won't be disappointed. The salt beef bagel or sandwich is another level.

[@mikedown1250]

Being London those prices are amazing. Like that owners rely on their rep and quality rather than ripping off tourists. Nice review Gary as always.

[@martindunstan8043]

Yes, the whole London pricing winds me up something rotten🤣so a down to earth wholesome cafe with great food and equally great prices deserves success 👍

[@GaryEats]

Agreed Mike. A wonderful place to eat!

[@donnienlefty]

Most local places outside of central London and the west end are reasonably price.

[@Ian-lq9mf]

Excellent video Gary - Maureen's is one of the best, if not the best. They deliver UK-wide and it just so happens that I have a Maureen's pie in the oven warming up with spuds on the boil and the liquor warming through😍, and now I get to watch a video about 'Pie Central' itself😊.Great people and great value. I'll be down in London in a couple of weeks for another 'Pie and mash-athon', visiting as many pie houses as I can in 3 days ! If you want to try another great plate of pie and mash, try G Kellys on the Roman Road in Bow.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you very much Ian. They're absolutely superb... I will try G Kelly's in the future!

[@deborahharris6769]

Great review Gary .. Always good food in Maureen’s deserve that high score .

Absolutely. Cheers Matthew!

[@nimmichagger165]

Mate, that meal is amazing value and looked absolutely delicious! Great review of a dying London delicacy. As an aside, I was in Windsor yesterday and decided to to go next door to Slough Steakout ONLY on your recommendation. Gary, I couldn’t have been happier! I got exactly the same steak you had, and it was perfection. The staff were amazing and so helpful. I mentioned you and they all pulled up your channel on their phones! They remembered you and your cameraman. I think you’d get free food for life there, mate! They all love your channel and were gushing about how lovely you were. Absolutely brilliant to see your channel growing and the restaurants you visit genuinely love you. All the best, mate.

[@GaryEats]

Amazing to hear that you also had a good experience of Steakout mate. The staff were lovely when I went and couldn’t be happier to be of service. Thank you for mentioning the videos and I’m glad they were full of praise. All the best my friend - thanks for sharing this with me!

[@AdAstra78]

As always Gary, a real pleasure to watch. Cheers for mentioning the seasoning of the mash too! I brought that subject up last week and you were kind enough to respond. You're fast becoming a bit of a legend! Keep up the great work and thank you so much for doing what you're doing.

I had never wanted traditional pie and mash was always put off by the liquor. but decided I needed to take the plunge and wow was surprised at how nice and fresh tasting it is. That meal looked amazing so generous with the salt beef.

I'm lucky, it was the first solid food I ate as a baby.. back in the 1960's 😅

Glad you’ve ended up having it Jason. It’s superb!

[@andreashaynes3346]

I’ve got to start with one word Gary, WOW!!! The pie and mash looked superb, as did the beef brisket. The price of the food was outrageously cheap. You can tell the quality is first class, judging by how many people came in. Thank you so much for sharing with us. That has made my evening 👍💎👍

You should! Hello to Sweden 😊

[@tomasarfert]

@@GaryEats Hi Gary! Like your videos a lot! Naturally I eat Surströmming from time to time (tastes a lot better then the smell you got when you open the can). It is however harder to find, because of to much "industrial fishing" with big ships, that leaves fewer Strömming (small Baltic herring) to the local fishermen in Northern Sweden, with smaller boats. A shame.

I always appreciate traditional shops with a good history that are there for the people and if you want to know if a business is for the people then have a look at the prices. So cheap really in today's Britain. Take note rip off businesses who aren't there for the people? Good review Gary as always

Spot on Gareth. Thank you for watching!

[@paulclaisse6732]

Liquor is traditionally made with juice from stewed eels.

[@GaryEats]

Yep.

[@charlietaters9331]

Remember Gary, you only need the knife for self defence. A lot of these shops are in the less salubrious parts of the capital. Pocket the blade and have it to hand as you walk towards and away from the restaurant. You’ll only need it until safely back inside your vehicle.

[@TelThePower]

Gary, Absolutely superb mate! The Pie & mash looked so delicious, & the Salt beef incredible! ✅ Price for the London area, amazing! ✅ I think you showcased Maureen's Pie & Mash shop to perfection, spot on! Cheers 🍻

Glad you enjoyed it Tel. Means a lot mate and thanks for your constant support!

[@relaxingwoody05]

Maureen's pie n mash is, and by the sound of your recommendation still, the best you can get! I moved away from Poplar 22 years ago and nothing can compete with their pie n mash that I've tasted since. Not many things I miss about East London, but this is certainly one of the few things that make me want to stop by when I can! 👌

I travel down from the north east especially for pie and mash. Love the stuff 😍😋

So good and I’m glad you go back and back. It’s excellent!

[@carolgriffiths1682]

One of your best reviews Gary. You got everything perfect and the food looked equally perfect. We’ve followed Maureen’s on FB and hope to visit - think you’ve started a new trend tho - salt beef Beigel now a must side dish for pie and mash 👍.

Wow, thank you Carol. They deserve big praise 👏🏼

[@NatsuMatto]

Cheers, Gary! Been making it a mission to try all the best pie & mash shops in the city, but still need to go to Maureen's and Manze's (your reviews helped push them higher up on the list). As an American, I haven't ever experienced liquor on my pies before, and have been a bit worried to go "full force." Glad to see Maureen's offers both liquor AND gravy. I try to get to London as often as I can, and finding your videos has been a real treat.

[@GaryEats]

You're more than welcome my friend. Please do give them both a go as well as Goddards. In my opinion, they are the best!

Have you visited Harringtons in Tooting yet? Undoubtedly the best pie shop in London.

My dad was from the east end of London and used to say that the pie, mash and liquer was a lovely meal, I have to say that here it looks really nice and I'm gunna have to try some when I'm down London next, he also liked the jellied eels but I'm not trying that! Thanks for this mate, I have no idea why you was in my recommendations but I'm glad this was! Cheers!! 👍 Ps meant to say that all of that food was less than a tenner?!

I have eaten there & can honestly say with hand on my heart, that I have eaten in nearly every London Pie N Mash shop, but you simply cannot beat " Cooke's " Hoxton Market N1. They were the biggest in London and every shop family run. The last one left is Joe Cooke along Hoxton. They still bone their own beef to make pies and same crust recipe for over 70yrs. Just the best. Also bloody pricey now.

Hi mate. Glad you enjoyed it there, all the best. Thank you for watching!

[@stewedfishproductions7959]

You’re too kind as always Dale. Thank you 😊

[@taserrr]

I'm from Belgium and whilst wo do joke about the food in Britain, I can still recognize a lot of similarities, especially with the old style dishes. This actually looks great, and really well priced I certainly didn't expect it to be in London. I'd love to check it out next time I visit, but that may still be a while nowadays, needing an international passport and whatnot after brexit. Anyway, I've watched quite a few of your videos Gary, you seem like a lovely person with an in depth review. I'm sure I'm not the only international viewer! I do have to ask, almost all your videos seem to be London focused, which I understand if you're from there. But have you considered visiting some other places? Maybe fairly close, like up north, or even Scottish stuff, would love to see you have haggis :D Also, not sure if you do travel or not, but would love to watch a video about some international dishes too! Have a good one Gary!

[@GaryEats]

Of course. I’m planning to go to Yorkshire this week, I’ve been to the Cotswolds, York, Brighton, Birmingham and more so far but I will be going outside of London more for certain. I love haggis so will be trying that when I go to Scotland! Thanks for watching from Belgium and all the best.

Salt beef is silverside, it is immersed in salt solution for days to give it that taste. Lovely with pease pudding carrots and boiled potatoes.

Hi Gary - a brilliant review of both pie & mash an a salt beef bagel, many thanks! Those two dishes take me back to my boyhood days in London. Although I'm a South Londoner - my dads roots were in East London back in Victorian times & he would take me sometimes on a Sunday to Petticoat Lane / Brick Lane to buy smoked salmon, fresh bagels and rye bread, cheesecake, proper pickled cucumbers, pickled herring & all manner of foods that could not be found over in South London (We lived in Herne Hill where it joins on Ruskin Park and the famous Fox on the Hill pub on Champion Hill). My dad would buy us a Salt Beef sandwich usually in Blooms or Strongwaters. (both long gone) My acquaintance with pie & mash was mostly back in South London in the East Street / Walworth road area & in Peckham (in or off the high street were one or 2 p&m places ) but I do recall eating in East London at a pie & mash place (that also sold jellied eels) near Roman Rd market - it was very similar to your plate in Maureens - if I ever manage to visit London again I will look for Maureens as a place to have some good quality traditional London grub at a reasonable price!

I used to work round the corner from Crisp St. (Poplar DLR) and have eaten there quite a few times. Always has been a 10. Great review mate.

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Mark. All the best!

[@seantynan1]

Definitely on my list for the next time I am in London! Thanks Gary, excellent review.

[@GaryEats]

You’re welcome Sean. I hope you have a good time.

[@ajaxtelamonian5134]

Love the chilli vinegar was about to comment what about the chilli vinegar haha but yeah wish there were more pie and mash shops around affordable food out is quite a rarity.

[@GaryEats]

I really liked the chilli vinegar. Gives it a good flavour!

[@selhurt]

Looks fantastic, good honest run business. I will definitely be visiting

[@GaryEats]

Great to hear. They deserve the custom that they get!

[@Johnny-Bhoy]

Hey Gary m8, my wife is Cockanese, and she said your pie n mash looked epic. I’ve had it once on a trip to Swanley, to me it’s an acquired taste. Great review m8👍👍

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Johnny this caters for all as you can have gravy if not into the liquor sauce 👌

[@Nickpaintbrush]

Absolutely loved that review Gary, hands down beats any of the fast food rubbish out there. I actually prefer places like this with good honest food and prices to some of the places that charge the earth because it has some top chefs name in front of it, for example, and charge 3 times this for barely edible food. Definite 10 from me!

[@GaryEats]

This was great value Nick one I’d highly recommend

[@kylaodonnell5016]

Hi Gary, we love watching your videos! We watched 4 in a row the other day, your reviews are great 👍 love the range of food of places that you go to. Best wishes 👍🙏

[@GaryEats]

Thanks so much! Best wishes to you and your family.

[@user-lz4wj6cd8y]

[@GaryEats]

[@grahamelgie9281]

what a great find and great value ....pie an mash are on my next london visit....this place looks great. Good work Gary another great review

[@GaryEats]

Thanks Graham 😊

[@jshaers96]

Brilliant review, Gary, one of your best. It's great to see these long established places deserving their reputation. It looks like one of those places that genuinely serves the community rather than being an overpriced hipster hang-out.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you my friend. Very kind of you 😊

[@acheface]

Another great review. What a bargain. I'd have to forego the liquor though. I can't stand parsley. That bagel looks awesome. Definitely a ten!

[@GaryEats]

No problem mate. Not to everyone’s taste - thank you!

[@CheshireCat6639]

Looks absolutely yummy, and for London VFM🎉 Ty for staring 🎉

[@GaryEats]

My pleasure 😊

[@ems9097]

[@GaryEats]

Brilliant, thanks so much. Hope you enjoy your trip here

[@richardjennings3049]

It has always been Arments East St pie n mash shop and brick lane for salt beef beigels but I must say Poplar now runs a close 2nd on the looks of that lunch. Cheers Gary

[@GaryEats]

No problem Richard.
