To be fair the pies aren’t that bad, apart from the price. Used to love a Clark’s pie
Dad missed the cup final in 1927 as grandad only had 2 tickets, and Dad had an older brother!

I always thought their story could be a film. :lol:

Family arguments split the business in two, one keeping Cardiff and the other Bristol.

I think there was even another falling out with part of the Cardiff family keeping the name and Grangetown and the other called Victoria Park Pies and in Canton.

Anyone else put the lid between two slices of butter...... no, just me.... I'll get my coat.

These pies should have DOP status and increase the filling by atleast 50%

Rees's pies from the butchers in Canton up near the Clive are the best for me in Cardiff. Always queuing out the door so if you don't get there by 1pm they're normally sold out.

Not the oddest thing to eat that at all. Clarks pie lid between 2 slices of bread and butter sounds nice.

Now me - I have banana sliced lengthways on toast with masses of butter.....with English mustard spread over the banana - now thats odd! But weirdly nice sweet and sour taste to it.
But this I swear, before you and before Almighty God, that when we go into battle, I will be the first to set foot on the field, and I will be the last to step off, and I will leave no one behind. Dead or alive, we will all come home together, so help me God.

You're right - that's very weird! Used to have banana sandwiches in school but the mustard :o Not sure about that!

Pickled onion sandwiches were delicious too!

Are those lovely onion rolls

Quick pee in the open cold air bofs in the cold nights you'd see steam rising .

Smell of tobacco wafting through the air.

TV men climbing the gantry on the bob bank

Back to the game

Sliding down the grange with feet off the floor .

Floodlights on .

European Special Nights .

Singing with no help .

What a feast .....

Yep. Steak pie is absolutely top notch, plus a couple, or 4, mini corned beef pasties to eat while you walk home with your pie.

Some of the "guest pie of the month" selections last season were virtually inedible.

Bring back the matchday Clarks Pie!

I say Kevin's pies as it is his name but Rees is the shop go there. His cooked ham is the best in Cardiff as well. No family or financial interest but I just want top notch local business to survive in this hard environment.
