Cockneys of Bromley in Bromley

There's so much bravado amongst pie & mash fans, who state there's is better, brought up on Harringtons in Wandsworth rd and Cookes Lower Marsh, then moved on to Maureens & Manzes popular shops who produce great grub, so there's none of that from me. The Old Cockney is up there with the very best, great food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere, well worth a visit.

Dropped in on way back to Norfolk from Gatwick airport fantastic place(virgin trip) the food of gods was actually the food of gods great pies proper mash and best liquor since Cooke’s Shepherd’s Bush closed down. Friendly welcome great atmosphere and even bench seating takes you back to when pie and mash was our staple diet,even got a takeaway for a friend in swaffham Norfolk that’s his Sunday dinner sorted. Back down in four weeks will need to clear out the freezer before then People we need to support these type of places before everything we love is gone. Thanks for a great pit stop the car smelt great for the drive back who needs air fresheners.

The best pie and mash for miles and the owner and staff are legends!! Very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Absolutely outstanding!

Popped in here to celebrate St George’s day expecting a faux pie and mash experience but was pleasantly surprised. The seating is authentic - wooden benches with marble tables, the welcome was traditionally warm but most of all the food was exactly as I remembered from my childhood. Tasty pies, good mash, and lashings (there’s an old word!) of liquor. The menu also includes eels. The whole experience took this Peckham boy back to better days. Thank you.

In a traditional setting, this pie and mash shop has the best pies around and the best owners too! Take a trip down memory lane with all the photos on the wall while eating fantastic food. Good size portions,great quality and a friendly, lively atmosphere.....can't recommend enough.

Great little place for all lovers of traditional pie, mash and liquor. Food is excellent. Yusuf the owner is a really good bloke and the place itself has a really friendly atmosphere. Great value too. Really recommend and will be returning.

Like many Londoners above a certain age I was weaned on pie and mash as a baby and have beautifully warm green liquor running through my veins. Naturally sceptical of any pie and mash shop that hasn't been run by four generations over at least a century my expectations were frankly not that high. However, imagine my joy and surprised when served with proper, traditional, delicious, nutricious, authentic, steaming hot, proper pie and mash. The owners are a charming chatty and welcoming couple and it was the perfect lunch served with a mug of builders tea on a cold and wet weekday lunchtime. This couple have really got the formula right and whether you are brand new to the cuisine or a Manzes snob I'd say give it a try, you will walk out with a warm glow, a full tummy, plenty of cash still in your sky rocket and a big smile on your boat race (couldn't help going all cockney there).

Pie and mash to die for, we travel regularly from Eastbourne as this is by far the best. The in house made pies are amazing, and the best liquor ever. The value for money is excellent, made an error on a previous review as only hit 4 buttons. Made no mistake this time its a 5 all the way.
