Arment WJ & Son in Southwark

Top class pie and mash shop and one of my favourites. Friendly staff, not too expensive and the food is always fresh. Highly recommended.

There are pie &mash shops and there is WJ Arment, from the moment you walk through the door you are greeted with a smile from the friendly staff. I’ve been using this establishment for over 55 years and there’s just no need to change. I get served the perfect plate of pie and mash every time. If you ever in the area go it a go because you won’t be disappointed.

Ordered a delivery for my father's 80th birthday, excellent food, he was over the moon with the delivery. Thank you Arment's for making his day, he had not eaten pie and mash in 40 years as he had moved to Yorkshire, thank you for making his 80th birthday special. Keep up the fantastic work.

Received my delivery today everything was perfect from the freshness of the food to the packaging and heating instructions, the liquor containers were completely full and wrapped in bubble wrap I have eaten pie and mash from Arments for over 60 years I even weaned my children on it, I can honestly say it is the best pie and mash ever and highly recommend you try it.

We had to leave a review about Arments fantastic online ordering service. We have used this service a number of times and it is absolutely brilliant. If like us you live too far away to visit in person and you are craving your Pie Mash and Liquor you can't go wrong with ordering some of there fantastic Pie & Mash etc. Easy online ordering and brilliant overnight delivery. All the produce is fresh and packed perfectly. If you've never used this service before and are thinking about it, stop thinking about it and place your order, you won't be disappointed ! Highly recommended.

Another lovely visit to sample the best pie and mash anywhere. Served with a smile and the quality of the food is 100%, the two pies, double mash and perfect liquor went down a great. I can’t recommend this food highly enough, it really is the best.

Proper pie mash and liqueur, friendly staff and great atmosphere, steak pies were full of lovely meat. They sell their own chilli vinegar - we got a bottle along with instructions on online orders. Well recommended for an authentic experience.

We cannot fault the customer service of Arment & Son Pie & Mash. They were badly let down by their courier who completely failed to deliver Pie & Mash! No surprise there really. Lorraine from Arments took it upon herself to deliver the Pie & Mash personally, driving from Walworth South London to Bromley Kent. Absolutely brilliant! We have used Arments for our Pie & Mash deliveries for a while now and the quality of the food remains as good as ever. We really cannot recommend Arments highly enough, their food is excellent and their customer service as shown by this review is second to none. Definitely be ordering again in the next few days. Thank you again Lorraine, it made my Mother-in-laws day.

We have just received our order of Pies Mash and Liquor and, of course, devoured a plate full with Chilli Vinegar, more required on the next order! Absolutely fantastic!

Delicious homemade pie and mash and liquor with great service, in fab place. Family run. Just go and try it!! They also deliver, and take good family holidays for staff, too.

The best Pie n Mash ever!! Quality of food and best customer service! We have been using Armentts for 80 years and will continue to do so!

After hearing so much about the traditional pie and mash I had to give it go. Loved it really enjoyed the simplicity of it all! Service was good food was great. Best lunch I've had in London.

I used to live in North London and always went to Manzes pie and mash but moved to Bournmouth we don't have anything here but I did order pie and mash from Arment it was brilliant, going to do another order.

I and my family have been going to Arments for several decades, without question the absolute best Pie & Mash ever. I have tried other venues but none come close. Great staff, all pies made on site, lovely mash and Liquor. It`s a must every Saturday with my mates before watching the mighty Lions at home. If you think you know your Pie & Mash, give Arments a try and then ditch the rest.

Good honest food. I bought a pie, mash and liquor. The pie was made nicely and the service was kind and quick. Something which alot of shops could learn from, the ladies behind the counter sand the patrons are fantastic. For those that are used to big flavours, this isn't for you. The use of chilli vinegar is definitely a must. I am yet to visit Manzes (trip is in order soon). So I can't compare. I just love how it is true to tradition and a lovely establishment. I certainly will be returning to try the stewed and jellied eels. It's filling and nicely priced. I just feel it's not everyone's cuppa tea but I understand the appeal and the return customer (some who have been coming here for 50+ years). However a decline in the traditional pie and mash shops continue. Does it need a revamp? Probably, but keeping those on the menu already for its steady clientele.

Had my usual double double again today (for people who don’t know, it’s two pies, double mash and liquor) Served with a smile and all I’ll say is if you haven’t experienced WJ Arments pie and mash yet please do, you won’t be disappointed. Superb food at a great price.

I had a box of pies and liquor due to be delivered today for my sons 40th Birthday , there was a mix up with the delivery but a member of the shop team drove all the way to Westgate on sea in Kent to deliver them direct !! Fantastic service wonderful pies Thank you Arments pie and mash co

Visited Arments again today and it never fails to hit the spot. Quality pies, mash & liquor every time, served with a friendly smile. I’ve used this establishment for over 50 years now and see no need to change.

Top grub ...perfect as it should be ...clean premises faultless pie & Mash ......not for are Dorris's but they soon latched on to the cherry 🍒 pie & custard ....😂👍

Due to COVID we have had to order a delivery. Absolutely fantastic, such a reminder of our London life before we moved to Surrey. My husbands family had stalls in East Lane so Arments was just an every day thing. Now its such a treat the food was delicious the service was outstanding and loved the little note THANK YOU SOPHIE and the Love Heart sweets what a thoughtful idea. Will definitely be ordering again THANK YOU ARMENTS!!!

Back in England after 16 months away and I am sitting here, waiting on the delivery of my Pie Box, that was ordered last Monday and the anticipation is killing me!

Been using this pie and mash shop since 1960's still the BEST pie and mash in London period Fantastic traditional food, lovely staff and great service If you haven't tried it you don't know what you're missing Highly recommended

Always been a favourite of mine😊. I would highly recommend everyone too go and enjoy the experience of 1 London's greatest traditional eateries ARMENTS PIE&MASH 👌

A big thank you to Sophie, the Crimbo card was a lovely touch. The veg pies were delicious with a lovely buttery pastry, not a soggy bottom to be had. The mash was generous as was the lovely Liquor which took me back to my childhood. It was delivered on time and packaged well. I'm going to order a delivery for my brother for Xmas.

Very pleased we ordered this. The pies had been packed with care and marked as to what the filling was. The liquor containers were full and wrapped and sealed with bubblewrap. The pies were amazing as was the liquor and by far the best we ever eaten. We would recommend this company for pie and mash lovers. Very easy to order and service was efficient. A great find.

I’ve been eating pie mash ever since I was a young girl mum took as here every Saturday no one can beat this shop it’s one of the best and wit me staying in Scotland just found out they deliver here so hers to happy ordering best thing u fone as there a lot of English people staying in Scotland just wish now use could open a shop here but hey ho

He comido en esta tienda de puré de pasteles varias veces. Vivo en Surrey y solía venir a Arments cuando era niña con mi madre cuando vivíamos en el suroeste de Londres, pero aún así viajé a Walworth Road hasta esta tienda, ya que creemos que es la mejor que hemos comido. Ahora probé su servicio de entrega de excelentes pasteles y licor, hago mi propio puré. La entrega es absolutamente brillante. El empaquetado y los problemas que toman es sobresaliente. Hoy en día no es barato, pero mucho más barato que subir en tren y traerlo, además me entregan una carga porque se congela perfectamente. Amo este establecimiento. Y felicitaciones por su calificación de 5 * del consejo hoy.

Primera vez que estoy aquí desde enero.Honestamente, puedo decir que todas mis reseñas saben exactamente igual que cuando era niño. mantener el recibo igual mantiene a los clientes contentos y regresando, es encantador ver al personal nuevamente también, siempre agradable y con muchas bromas. No se puede vencer a Arments 7 por un doble pastel y un puré muy razonable y de excelente calidad. Gracias chicos, no cambien nada.

¡Me encanta Arments Pie & Mash! Es mi favorita y la comida reconfortante. Especialmente necesario en estos tiempos sin precedentes.Sin embargo, nunca me lo han entregado. Hasta hoy.Bien empaquetado. Buenas instrucciones de recalentamiento.¡Comida sabrosa como siempre!Sé que Arments ha reabierto recientemente para llevar, lo cual es genial. ¡Si viviera un poco más cerca estaría allí todo el tiempo!

Debido al Coronavirus, no hemos podido obtener nuestra 'solución' habitual del mejor pastel y barra de puré. Usamos el servicio en línea por primera vez y fue brillante y fácil de principio a fin.Conseguí esto como un regalo familiar para nuestro primer cumpleaños en la calle de nuestros nietos (5 adultos en realidad, pero una buena excusa). Sabe tan bien como siempre y una adición brillante para todos los londinenses de Sarf que ya no vivimos en la zona. ¡Definitivamente lo usaré de nuevo hasta que podamos volver a nuestro restaurante favorito en todo el mundo! !

Recibí otra entrega de la mejor tienda de pasteles y puré de cualquier lugar ayer y nuevamente fue excelente. Debido a COVID - 19, disfrutar de esta excelente comida solo se puede hacer en casa, pero es igual de bueno. Los alimentos están bien empaquetados, refrigerados cuando se entregan y se incluyen excelentes instrucciones de cocción. Me encanta visitar Arments y comer en casa, pero esta es la mejor alternativa. Buena comida a muy buen precio, he disfrutado de su tarta y puré durante más de 50 años y continuaré.

Omg this has to be the best pie n mash I have ever tasted. They pie is lush and the mash is tasty. The staff are friendly and the owner Roy is a nice man

most wonderful service - super friendly staff - delicious pies and mash i recon number 1 in the uk - many thanks to Roy and Paul keeping the lovely tradition going

I grew up in Brighton and spent 21 years of my life there. My mum was from South London. So I always grew up on pie and mash but not just any, Arments. It has been my pie and mash shop for 35 years. Now I'm just pleased I live closer as I can go more regularly. They have the friendliest of staff and we have never had a bad meal. Family run, so they actually care. Arments is amazing!

Four generations of my family and wider family have grown up eating pie and mash at Arment's so you could consider us connoisseurs.Back in the 1970's my late father brought his die-cast toy collector friends from the USA to Arment's to get a real taste of London after a sight-seeing tour of the capitol.Arment's is an institution, just as important to London as our Royal Family and the Raven's in the Tower of London.You have not really visited London until you have tasted the very best pie and mash in London. It should be given a Michelin Star.

Excelente servicio al cliente y simplemente excelente comida bien preparada. Al igual que muchos de los otros clientes, he estado en bastantes tiendas de pasteles y purés a lo largo de los años y Arments recibe algunas palizas. Comida caliente servida en locales limpios con cremoso puré de licor sedoso y crujientes pasteles cubiertos. . . ñam!

Iv been going to arment since I was a small child.i now live in Berkshire but my daughter had it delivered to my house.this place is really clean ,the food is lovely and fresh.its a great place to take children.it has pie mash.stewed eel.

Delicious, prompt and great value for money. The pie crust is the best! My son loved it. A brilliant solution to ‘what’s for lunch?’.

Pies to die for. White mash absolutely top. Liquor so tasty. Still number 1, i mean, who has gravy in a pie mash?

Wow delicious Pie Mash with hot eels. Normally have take away but this week we had Pie & Mash at the shop. The quality of the food & services is first class and the food as always outstanding. Been using this place since I was a little girl. Oh I forgot to mention the chill vinegar.

Am 40 years old and been eating at Arments once a week for 35 of those years (When theirs no tennis on for Roy 😂😂) . Best pie mash around

It's not often your expectations match reality but at Arments they strive for excellence every time and achieve it. Drove up from Kent and bought 25 pies and liquor today to take to Cornwall, so had to have some while I was there. Busy at 11.00 tells you everything. Fast, consistent service and they are always washing their hands ! Have tried all over the South East and nowhere comes close. Plus the added extra of eye candy in the shape of Lorraine today.

I have visited many pie and mash shops in both north and south london and in my opinion Arments is the best. I now live in West Wickham but still travel to Westmoreland road when I need some proper London Soul Food. Also used the delivery service to send pies and liquor to relatives in Leicestershire

I can’t praise this establishment highly enough. Every time I visit it’s double double and the food is superb. I’ve eaten in many pie and mash shops over the years but none of them compare to WJ Arment. The quality of food and service from the guys here is first class. Been using this place for over 55 years and will continue to do so.

Tastes great and always has done, but the costomer service regarding enquires to ingredients used is shocking to say the least. Every other food chain has all the information available.

Considered by many - especially in South London as the very best in traditional Pie & Mash . Long established , pleasant decor , friendly helpful smiling staff and even a delivery service . The pie was hot and tasty , mash plentiful and the liquor was genuine parsley sauce . Eels also available if you like that sort of thing - stewed or jellied .

Popped in again last Saturday for my usual double double (two pies, double mash). And as always it hit the post, pies - crusty on top with the perfect soft base. Mash - perfect mash, nothing added just good quality potatoes. And the liquor was superb. The staff here always greet you with a smile. Been using this place for over 50 years and see no reason to change. It’s the perfect pie & mash.

Had the lovely Vegetarian Pie & Mash. Perfect hot fayre after a day shopping in the cold. Lovely people and lovely place too. Highly recommended. Will definitely be back! Thank You!

I’m 51 now and I’ve been eating pie and mash since I was a baby. I moved to Eastbourne 15 years ago so have really missed Armets but just found out they now deliver I’m over the moon. So as soon as I can save up the money I will be placing my order this is the best news I’ve heard. This is the best pie and mash in the world. No one could say a bad word about this pie and mash. Thank you for being the best

Arments has been our family favourite from Walworth Rd to Westmoreland Rd. Love the pies, mash, liqueur, eels both jellied and stewed, oh I just love it all!

Decided to visit Arments having heard so much about it over the years. Modern rather than traditional interior, which was bright and jolly, lovely staff too.

Very tasty pies, good creamy mash and vibrant liquor. Stewed eels were good too. Not something to eat every day but another great British experience

I travel a round journey of 4 hours to come here. I love it and manage to come 5 times a year. It’s cheap, amazing food, full of history and a privilege to be able to eat there. I always get 2 days worth of take aways as well. Having come here since I was a child - it’s very emotional to attend and reminisce. Thank God it stayed open. Best pie n mash in London for sure.

Double double with liquor and vinegar, there's nothing better. Sometimes we eat in the shop, other times we order online. Always perfect. Staff are always friendly. We love Arments.

have just ate 2 of the pies that was sent out to me this being my 1st order just reminded me of being back in London when i was down there working for 20 years brought back so many memories will definately order again once i have finished the other 2, so easy to order and so cheap

Mi papá viene a Arments desde que era un niño, cumplirá 85 años en octubre. A lo largo de mi infancia escuché historias de lo deliciosos que era Arments Pie and Mash. Habló sobre doble, doble y licor y, para ser sincero, ¡realmente no tenía idea de qué era este "nuevo lenguaje"! Nos mudamos del área y un viaje en automóvil de 15 minutos se convirtió en uno de 2 horas. Sin embargo, cuando me di cuenta de que hacían "pasteles postales", me sentí muy aliviado. Pedí un mes para él, y estaba tan sorprendido que fue como Navidad para él. Tratar con Lorraine en Arments cuando hace un pedido, ha sido un verdadero placer, el servicio al cliente es de primera clase y realmente se preocupan por sus clientes, incluso una vez que la entrega no apareció, se ofrecieron a llevarlo a él. Para su 80º, todos lo visitamos e hicieron un pastel solo para él con 80 de hojaldre para la parte superior. No hace falta decir que, como regalo de cumpleaños, volveremos a visitarlo para su 85º en octubre. Gracias Arments por hacer muy feliz a mi papá cada mes con su entrega. Ustedes son personas realmente encantadoras.

Enjoyed my double double yesterday and as per the norm it was cooked to perfection and served with a smile. Thank you all at WJ Arment. There is no other pie and mash that comes close to this.

Pastel y puré encantador todo el personal sonriendo buen ambiente pero un miembro hasta no hay servicio al cliente en absoluto

Thanku so much Arments for ur punctual delivery to albins for the double pie mash and liqueur and jellied eels for my dad for his very very last supper....💔

Pies are still the best in town and mash potato uses real potatoes. However, the liquor recipe has varied since stock from the stewed ells is no longer used to make it.

Si te gusta el pastel clásico y el puré, este es el lugar para ti. Todo cocinado fresco en el lugar a la orden. La alta rotación de clientes mantiene todo fresco. El licor es fantástico y complementa muy bien el pastel, el puré y las anguilas guisadas. ¡A mi esposa filipina también le encanta!

Working nearby, so popped in for a quick double pie and mash at Arments. Had heard good things about this place and wasn’t disappointed at all, good friendly service and great food all prepared fresh on the premises, highly recommended!

Used this place for over 50 years, double double every time. Classic pies with the perfect mash and that beautiful liquor. Always hits the spot and served by very friendly staff.

Visited yesterday lunchtime for a quick double double. Just great, not had p & m for at least 35 years, used to go every Saturday afternoon with my Dad, and it was just as I remembered

Best pie and mash in London, hands down! The staff are always lovely and the food is always exactly the same, never a bad day!

I had to come up to Kings College Hospital today for an appointment and decided to treat myself to a traditional pie & mash afterwards. I haven’t had pie & mash in a few years and had heard good reports about Arments - it didn’t disappoint! childhood memories came flooding back. I had a traditional pie, mash and liquor and it was piping hot and yummy, I was even offered a bowl of extra liquor which was a lovely touch. I will definitely be back when next in the area. Authentic pie & mash traditionalists will like it here.

There is alot that I like about Armets, it is the smiles that greet you and people having a chat and sharing a joke while enjoying some of the best, most tasty pie, mash n liquor. It is also that the place is spotless and clean. The prices are reasonable and it worth going out of your way to visit. Also, the hours are longer than most pie n mash shops.

As a family we love Arments pie mash husbands from London but the best bit is we live 4hours away and to find out that they do delivery is amazing, they go above and beyond to make sure it is delivered to you on your date you choose they do many different pack options too, so for any pie mash liquor loves this is the way to go

Acabo de recibir mi entrega de Pie / puré y licor.

Excellent pies and liquor, ordered on line via web page under bespoke orders. Pies arrived well packaged and with all instructions to heat up. Tasted great, great service from staff, great for party catering!

I have grown up with Arments and it is what I judge all other pie shops against they are simply the best fact

been brought up on Arment's Can not be Beaten. if you love good quality Pie and mash 100% Arments IS the Place for

This is a traditional east end meal, right in the heart of London borough of Southwark. It has ample busses to and from the venue, and is just off the walworth road, which has lots of shops. I had two pies, mash and the traditional green stuff (Liquor), and I have to admit, i loved every minute of it. The staff are kind, and the venue is clean, and always has seating. I often get a take away when I am leaving. I would highly recommend, Keep the good work up!!

Just visited this place today and it failed to disappoint.

I been going to this place since I could walk and it's still the best Pies are fantastic Liquer is really nice And staff are even nicer

Just went here for the first time after a friend kept saying how good it was. Wasn’t let down. Food is excellent and the service was great. Will definitely be back.

Petit restaurant qui ne paye pas de mine mais avec la queue pour entrer et pas de touristes.

We try to take in a visit to Arments, on every trip from the West of England. The quality of the Pie, Mash, Stewed and Jellied Eels, are beyond compare. Well worth a visit.

Me he perdido la comida tradicional de Londres después de viajar mucho. Entonces, qué mejor que almorzar con amigos siguiendo la recomendación de un amigo para una pastelería local.

Realmente amamos este lugar La comida siempre es excelente y el personal es el mejor. Vale la pena viajar, ya que no encontrarás mejor Pie y Mash en ningún otro lugar. Abrieron mis ojos a las delicias de Pie y Mash y visité tan a menudo como sea posible.

Very long established family run business- where can you go and get two meals for less than £10 theses days - I had double pie and mash while other half had just pie and mash - stewed and Jellied eels available and even a dessert pie.

Used to eat at arment's over 55 years ago. Being a Londoner on a recent short break I just had to go and indulge in Pie ,stewed eels and mash with liquer it's still as good as it always was. Congratulations for still producing great traditional food.

I live five minutes from Arments and it is a godsend. The pie and mash is delicious and has to be eaten with lots of chilli vinegar and pepper. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. I take it as a treat to my brothers as he lives in Surrey. I have also had it posted to Essex. Here's to the next 100 years

I now live in Norfolk and don't get much chance to visit Arments, but my Brother who lives on the outskirts of London came for a visit and brought me a present of Pie & Mash with Liquor with a bottle of Chilli Vinegar, oh joy, it's been a year since my last fix and it was LOVELY! Not only that but he brought enough for 2 more meals, oh I love my Brother!

Smart and clean pie and mash emporium. Decent pie and mash at excellent prices. I will get brave and try the stewed eels. Never had them before.

I used to live near this pie shop and love it ,,I often take some back home with me When visiting London ,,a blast from the past ,,love it so much

Went here yesterday for my regular fix of Arment’s Paige and Mash!

We have been eating Arments Pie & Mash for over 60yrs in all of their original 4 shops, [sadly, only 1 remaining] our children and grandchildren have been brought up on them. The pies still taste the same as they always have, DELICIOUS! The meat is of a very high quality, and appears not to have any artificial addition. We shall carry on patronising Arments for as long as we can.

I don't normally write reviews however, felt compelled to add mine after having visited Arments earlier this week. I was recommended this pie & mash shop by a friend (who knows that I am bit of a connoisseur when it comes to pie & mash!)...I have been to a number of 'shops' over the last few years however, this one is head and shoulders above them all. This is traditional Pie & Mash at it's best....The service was efficient with friendly staff and the place was spotlessly clean. I love the fact that I can order on line and have the pies delivered. I'm having a 'Big' birthday in a couple of months and will certainly be making use of their 'Postal Pie Boxes'. Well done Arments - excellent job well done on all levels!!! :-)

This really is a UK place. Zero tourists, zero trade. It is a place of other times, where you will see regular customers, who know each other. The pie is one of the best that I have ever eaten. And I have eaten many as I love pies. The menu has little choice, but honestly it's not a problem. The price of lunch is very low, for high quality food. I suggest it for lunch, or even take-out for a pic-nic in one of the beautiful London's parks.

Really lovely hot pies with great pastry and meat Plenty of mash served with it Topped with great liqueur Try with loads of black pepper and chilli vinegar

A bit out of the way, this simple but clean restaurant has hardly changed over the years. The pie & mash is very good as you would expect from such a long-standing institution, and great value for money. Loved the chilli vinegar which gave the liquor an extra kick.

Without doubt the best pie shop left in London always top quality and friendly staff, great eels and also the veggie option

love arments pie and mash best there is tried loads of different ones but none compare ive been going there all my life and dont plan on changing converted loads of ppl all have said best theyve tasted xx

Travelled a good 30 mins to find a good pie and mash shop and this didn’t disappoint. Really old school feel in the place with nice pictures on the walls of when it first opened and the history. Had the double steak pie and mash...

Arrived here after having spent a good hour looking for the non-existent Borough Market location. Was expecting a flaky, fragrant pie filled with savory meat...got a soggy, undercooked pie stuffed with tasteless minced meat...at least the vinegar did its best to help. Eels and mash...

Been brought up on Pie & Mash and this is the best you can get. Also brought my son here since he was a baby and he loves it. Getting bit pricey used to be cheap eats.

I've never had 'pie & mash' before, but tried it without the liquor. No gravy available, sadly. The pie crust was like concrete and the meat filling tasted awful. Advertised as steak pie, it was minced, very pink meat that looked and tasted nothing like beef. The mash was basic, no milk or butter, but I expected that. However, I didn't expect to have to pick out the black 'eyes' from the mash. I left the pie and ate a little of the mash. Maybe I just expected more, or local

Traveling all over London looking for one of my favorite foods Pie and mash with liquor also stewed eels in liquor I've eaten in different ones all over London but I've always cane back to this one Arments & son the cleanest and best around no doubt .

Used this place for over 50 years, double double every time. Classic pies with the perfect mash and that beautiful liquor. Always hits the spot and served by very friendly staff.
