Maureens Pie & Mash in Tower Hamlets

As an indigenous East End cockney, no visit to the UK would be complete without a visit to a traditional pie and mash shop. I was raised on F. Cooke as a kid and when I moved south it was Manzies, or Arments and a few independents like Harringtons, Cockneys, Goddard, Kelly’s & B.J’s on my travels around London. Today on this visit it was the turn of Maureen’s pie & mash in Crisp St Market, Poplar as I’d read rave reviews and it didn’t disappoint and was well worth the slog across London and through the Blackwell Tunnel. Needless to say I walked away with a couple of pots of jelled eels for later as I was stuffed.

I've become a fan of pie & mash recently--such a hearty and good-value meal. I'm getting to the point where I can make comparisons; and will safely say that Maureen's pies are the best I've had so far. This type of pie is a simple affair--but they do differ; and Maureen's somehow seemed to have more mince in them and a richer and stronger flavour than ones I've had before. The mash and gravy were also spot on; and they even do an excellent cup of tea, a crucial detail. That isn't to say the atmosphere was the best. The cafe was nearly empty, and the serving ladies were holding a conversation with each other while treating me as if I wasn't there. A few weeks ago I'd been to Eastenders Pie & Mash round the corner, which felt such a friendly, vibrant place by contrast. Their pie & mash was great too; but Maureen's was even better, unless I've imagined it. I'll be back to both in future. So glad they keep the tradition going in this otherwise depressing concrete precinct which could do with a total rebuild, in my opinion.

First time trying pie mash & liquor Usual but I’d definitely eat it again Bargain price The staff were very friendly and they make a brilliant brew

Very busy shop, which says it all really. I don't know why people have made some disappointed remarks about the mash - our pies, mash and liquor were all first class today - served piping hot and at reasonable prices. We enjoyed our first visit there today and will certainly be back for more. Special thanks to all the lovely ladies serving and those out the back, who we could spot filling the pies - lovely to know it's all cooked on the premises.

The pies were burnt..... and really poor. The mash was as you'd expect it to be when it's mashed in the same water it was boiled in....and the liquor? Definitely just for the locals. Now, I wouldn't mind so much...but I get regular updates on Facebook about this establishment. I don't want them! I never did!! I think Maureen needs to stay away from a kitchen!

Very good vegetarian pie and mash, tasty and good service. The portion was generous and nice that vegetarian option was easily available.

The best pies in the world, wow just wow. They also deliver, if ever there was a heaven on Earth this most certainly is the place.

Today (23 August) a lovely man delivered our order of 8 pies, 8 mash and 8 liquors. They were still warm. So guess what we had for lunch today? It was absolutely lovely. In fact it was so good that my husband (who originally only had one pie) had another! Thank you Maureen's Pie & Mash. We will order again soon. Highly recommended!

Went here for lunch when working in Poplar. I had 2 and 2 with liquor and it was superb. Prices were pretty decent and the pies were delicious

Absolutely the best for pie n mash liquer and jellied eels if you like them. I've tried all the big names over the years but maureens hands down for me and my family is the best. Home delivery is a must if you are not able to visit the shop.

Visited here after a recommendation was not disappointed, the place was absolutely spotless with every table and chair being wiped down immediately after someone left. We had the pie & mash and it was fantastic as was the service and friendliness of the staff. Would highly recommend this place.

I am glad everyone unanimously agrees this place is the best because it is simply the best! The liquor is the star being strong and green and so is their chilli vinegar. For a more detail read, its on my blog.

Best pie and mash at a great price. Maureen's pies are ideal when you're looking for some cheap and cheerful lunch. The liquor is absolutely yummy poured over the pie and mash. I personally eat it without the vinegary condiment as I like the savoury flavour. Would recommend, they even sell vegetarian pie!

We always use maureens pie and mash. Highly recommended. We have tried most pie n mash shops over the years but maureens is the one for our family. We have it delivered and now we can eat in, we will be there soon.

I grew up in Bethnal Green and love Pie and Mash. Maureen's is superb. I live in Suffolk now, but have it delivered. Highly recommended.

Maureen's PML is the absolute best in the world The delivery service is excellent too. Been eating theirs for over 30 years

Best Pie n Mash by far. 10/10 everytime. Good sizes pies. Great, friendly service. Been going here since I was a kid and now take my own kids who love it.

Bit of a ramble herebeing a cockney born and bred i grew up with pie and mash and every saturday down the market with mum then over to the pie shop for my pie and mash.In 2008 we decided to move out of the smoke and headed for pastures new ( ended up in Cornwall) 13 years later i finally got my pie and mash again.( even treated the missus to some so points earned theretreble pie and double mash went down a treat and ordered a bag load to take home and even got a bottle of their chillie vinegar free.now a happy bunny and the freezer has a nice stock of pies and liquer ..i am not easily please but after 13 year absence i was well and truly sated.IF you get the time get over to Maureens and get some proper food in yourself.online order in the pipeline so will always have a stock :-)

Absolutely Top Notch food. Great delivery service. If you love your pies n mash and liquer this is a must try shop. All my family use and wouldn't go anywhere else.

I grew up eating pie and mash, and have tried most of them in my 60 years. Maureen's is up there with the best. Easy to order and always delicious, if you can't get to a pie shop, I would recommend that you give them a try.

Absolutely Great food and service. I've ordered for my mum who is 80 and been in lockdown since March. She was over the moon with food. I've had delivery too. Great food, absolutely highly recommend maureens.

Fantastic. Ordered pies, mash and liquor online - great food and great service. Delivery no hassle at all.

You can’t beat Maureen’s pie ‘n’ mash! The pies are full of meat and gravy and are absolutely delicious! The liquor is on point, even the mash is yummy, no lumps, perfectly seasoned real potatoes. To make the experience even better is the staff. They’re always so warm and welcoming, proper East End style! I’ve tasted other Pie’n’Mash shops but in my opinion Maureen’s is the best.

If you want a proper East End food experience then take the time to seek out Maureens. Fantastic home made mince beef or vegetable pie and mash in a traditional cafe atmosphere. £3.30 per person for a single pie and mash which was plenty at lunch time. Tea or soft drinks to accompany. The staff were lovely and chatty and clearly a good regular and local customer following. They even did take away. Well done, great experience.

Heard about this place but never made it there, until today! Top rate pie and mash! Great policy’s in place re C19 AND they pack it in take away boxes ready to eat!! Make sure you have cash on you as they don’t take card.

A fantastic pie mash and liquor I cudnt fault it and lovely people service g a real family atmosphere 10/10

Ordered on line. This has to be one of the best I've tasted. Great pies, large and full..Mash was plentiful and the liqueur was truly wonderful. Highly recommended.

¿Dios mío, tan sabroso? atascado en la cerradura y un golpe educado en la puerta y boom 12 pasteles y licor entregados sin ningún problema, mensaje de texto el día de la entrega para que se te haga la boca agua, preparé los platos tan pronto como recibí el mensaje ?, si no puede visitar la tienda, haga su pedido en línea. . . ¿Te prometes que no te decepcionará?

El personal es muy amable, hay un sentido de comunidad cuando se come, gente hablando entre ellos desde diferentes mesas y con el personal. ¡Muy buena vibra!Ad fr la comida, ¡nos encanta! Las tartas son realmente buenas, pero lo que nos pareció excepcional fueron los sándwiches calientes de carne salada. Son absolutamente enormes, muy buena relación calidad-precio.Prueba este lugar, ¡no te arrepentirás! Pero traiga dinero en efectivo, ya que no aceptan pagos con tarjeta.

Excellent pie and mash also the choice of Salt Beef . Friendly welcoming service great atmosphere. Good value for money. Not so sure about the gravy on pie and mash liquor for us but that’s how we like it ,It’s a London thing😀

He estado dos veces y volveré otra vezGran licor, gran puré, pero el único inconveniente para mí es la salsa dentro del pastel un poco demasiado. Y eso detiene un 5 para míPero está ahí con lo mejor y podrías lanzar un sello sobre todosEel & Pie House LeytonstoneRobins WansteadGran Dunmow de Manze (familia Walthamstow)Y en ningún orden creo que tendré que hacer las cuatro en un día para encontrar el número 1El ambiente en Maureens es genial, siempre se siente bienvenido

Llegué aquí antes de un partido en casa del West Ham el sábado pasado y lo había estado esperando durante mucho tiempo. Mi última visita fue en la década de 1970. ! Desde que me alejé del East End en esa misma década y crecí comiéndolo todos los días, trato de encontrar trucos de P&M cada vez que salgo y me gustan Robins y Leytonstone Eel & Pie House, entre otros.El lugar estaba a tope, así que agarramos un par de mesas cuando estuvieron disponibles y se me hizo agua la boca al meterme en mi doble doble con vinagre de chile.Me encantó el puré, licor y vinagre y la tarta y tamaño. La calidad de la carne y los pasteles estaba a la altura, pero tengo un pequeño problema con la cantidad de salsa en los pasteles, demasiado para mi gusto. Todavía lo disfruté, pero no puedo llamarlo como el top 2 solo por la salsa.Volveremos sin embargo. ? Absolutamente. !

Been in many London Pie and Mash shops Maureens has got to be one of the best and the portions are large, my partner had some salt beef which was very good.

Me and my younger brother visited Maureens on Saturday 19th October. The staff were really helpful and friendly. We’re not local, but have been looking forward to coming down. And we we’re disappointed. We can’t wait to return!

From the moment we walked through the door the staff were superb. It was a birthday treat from my wife as I was desperate to make a visit. Absolutely loved the pie and mash and it totally lives up to my expectations.

10/10 first class . PIe Mash and Liquor with eels if you like them ! They also do Salt Beef Dinners and Crusty Rolls .

Came here for lunch one Friday. The shop is located in the middle of a market/shopping area that definitely had better days. It’s nice and clean inside and the staff are nice and friendly. The food is really nice and there’s lots of selection. I’d recommend 2 + 1 with liquor

Now live in Essex ... and get delivered... my brother lives Oxfordshire and we have to send to him to get his fix... One of the best ... and delicious food .. amazing delivery service ... Always top quality food ... yummy

Back in London after a few years, went to Maureens for lunch with my nephew, still as good as ever. Traditional east end food at its best. Excellent staff, excellent food and not a bad cup of tea, what more can you ask.

una vez en la calle, las reseñas hicieron que nuestra elección fuera fácil, el personal muy amable, el servicio con una sonrisa al este.

Fui a visitar el mercado para luego tener pastel y puré. Buen trabajo, la pastelería estaba allí ya que el mercado estaba agotado. Como cliente habitual de Robins of Romford, pensé que no mejoraríamos nada en ningún sitio, pero que tan equivocado estaba. Encantador crujiente y base de sebo en las tartas. El relleno fue generoso y muy agradable. Calificaría a Maureen como el mejor que he probado. Es una pena que vivamos tan lejos como el viaje no fue fácil, no ayudado por un viaje involuntario alrededor de la Isla de los Perros cuando abordamos el autobús equivocado en el camino a casa, pero los dos y uno valieron la pena. El personal era muy acogedor y amable. Nos fuimos sintiendo que habíamos disfrutado de una muy buena experiencia de pastel y puré. Lamento no haber tenido espacio para el sándwich de carne salada anunciado, pero otro día volveré a dejar el puré y solo tendré dos pasteles y un sándwich. ! ! !

Estaba trabajando en el área y yo y tres amigos fuimos a desayunar a Maureen. En lugar de ir a un café, esperamos a comer hasta las 100. 00 cuando se abre y comió allí.

This is one of the best. In my top five pie mash and liquor but dos'nt do eels. One hundred meters from Poplar station.

He estado en muchas tiendas de pasteles y puré con el paso de los años en el East End. Maureen es sin duda el mejor con diferencia. El personal es amable y la comida es siempre fresca y sabrosa. Elaboran su propio vinagre de chile, lo que hace que las tartas sean aún más sabrosas. Están cerrados los lunes excepto en las vacaciones escolares.

Siempre que tengo la oportunidad, siempre uso el puré de pastel de Maureen, es el mejor en el álamo

I discovered Maureens last year and endulged in pie mash and salt beef bagel while I waited for my bulk take away. Cannot tell you how much my boys and I enjoyed everything. We took our pies home and the rest of the family had a great time eating their way through pies and mash for a few months while they lasted. We live in the west country now and even some of the locals are hooked on pie mash and licor.

I live in NZ and tried several pie and mash shops in London. Maureen's was by far the best, so much so that I returned several times. I couldn't stop myself. The staff there are so lovely and friendly and the liquor was the best I had had, no skimping on the parsley here. It is very reasonably priced too. If I ever return to London, I will definitely be returning to Maureen's. I have only been back in my home country a few days and I am already dreaming and missing eating pie and mash.

Estábamos visitando el East End y estaban decididas a experimentar un pastel de puré y tienda. Maureen está en Poplar, pero irreconocible de la partera. Es moderno, que es la vivienda social Poplar con una población muy diversa, manteniendo la cálida de la gente y el acento fantástico!

El hecho de que este lugar estaba tan ocupado era obviamente una buena señal. El servicio no fue afectado por este precioso, y mujeres dispuestos a ayudar. Los huéspedes incluso parecía ser también amable jaja tal vez la comida se extiende buenas vibraciones. . . Muy buena tarta n puré, sin duda alguna!

Top quality pie and mash washed down with the best salt beef bagel in London. It goes without saying the lovely ladies in there make a banging cuppa as well.

I'm a lorry driver and always come here for lunch if within a 5 mile radius of this place. Proper pie and mash with chilli vinegar on the table.

My (Irish) friend and I were taken here by a proper Eastender as an introduction to “proper” pie n mash. It didn’t disappoint, nice mash, great pie and you have to try liquor - Parsley on pie might sound strange but it really works!

We ate here a few times while in London. In fact...we ate this as our last meal while in a black cab to Heathrow! I wish we had Pie N Mash in the USA. Maureen's is so good. Customer service is wonderful. I just love it here. If we lived in London we'd be regulars. We will be back the next time we visit. Thank you!!

50 years and still going strong. Friendly dedicated East End family that serves tasty, wholesome food. Nothing processed here ! Genuine pie and mash that you need to tick off on your bucket list however be warned you will be returning to saviour the other delicies including their salt beef dinner and beigles. Vegetarians are also catered for.

Well worth a visit great food one of the best for pie and mash. Friendly staff and very clean great value for money.

Every time me and my partner can, we go. Simple, very tasty and cheap! Salt beef bagel with all in! ❤️

been going here since a little kid. Best pie mash. The meat in the pies are lovely. I do have gravy with mine but I think I am 1 in a 100 lol. The staff are great too. Family run

Maureens se ha convertido en uno de los mejores restaurante de puré tarta y en Londres. Personal amable y un montón de mesas para comer. Prisa y quieres un coche por entonces para llevar a la parte trasera y se sirven allí así que no tienes un ticket de aparcamiento. También tienen carne salada beigal y sandwiches, té, café y bebidas frías. A CONSEGUIR su harris Chrisp Street y disfrutar.

Primera crítica. Segunda visita. Sin adornos. Mejor tarta, puré y licores en el negocio a precios fantásticos. El personal es adecuado East End folk que aprecian sus clientes. Ocurre llevar una camiseta y pantalones cuando se visita.

Viajar por los alrededores y visitar, he estado probando los encantos de pienmash en Londres. Mi informe se diga que Maureen en Poplar era con diferencia el más auténtico que nunca. Si quieres probar un verdadero pastel de puré y hacer un viaje a la calle quebradizo en poplar. Disfrutar.

Pastel de puré de generoso con preciosa. El pastel no es seco y la pastelería es preciosa y tenían. No te vas a equivocar. Comer allí, es bueno

I had the pie and mash and the salt beef bagel (they spell it beigel which must be the original version). Both were delicious. Have the pie and mash with chilli vinegar to give it some oomph. Welcoming, friendly service and old-school ambience. Tourists British and foreign should go for a taste of Cockney culture which is sadly fading from sight.

Took myself off on the hottest lunchtime of the year so far planning to grab a Salt Beef beigel. Somehow tempted myself into sitting for a Salt Beef dinner. It arrived as one of the hottest dishes I've ever eaten, piping hot and wonderfully tasty. So full afterwards that I ended up getting a Salt Beef beigel but only for my tea that night! Really worth a wander there sometime.

Visit here every other week on a Friday with the guys from work. Can't beat it. I always go for 2 pie 2 mash with liquor and it's always been 10/10. One of the other guys goes for the salt beef bagel and he swears by it! Always full throughout the day especially at lunchtime.. sometimes you may struggle to get a table but the service is quick so people don't tend to sit around for to long. Staff are also very friendly and always smiling! Will be going here for a long time to come that's for Sure!

The chaps in the office loved Maureens pies so much in March they dispatched me again to pick up another batch. This time 29 pies 14 mash plus liquor all pre ordered and ready and waiting for a prompt pick up. Great value and service with a smile from MPAMS. Will be back in a few weeks

Phoned day before to find out about prices, take away, eat in, parking and other questions. Very helpful lady on the phone pity I never got her name. Ended up having a general chat about pie and mash.Arrived at the shop next day, identified my self to the staff as the fella on the phone from the country, all the ladies on the counter were lovely and I met the one I had spoken to on the phone. Nothing was too much trouble, friendly and very very nice. Sevice and care fantastic, pie and mash great, lovely pastry with meat and gravey filling and the salt beef bagle excellant. Loads of thick and melt in the mouth slices of beef, gherkin and mustard all in a bagle.Stack of pies to take back to the country. All well wrapped and packaged,brilliant.Good food, good service and good people,( Including the pieman in the kitchen)Well worth a visit even if it is only 120 miles down the road. Wish everyone at Maureen's well and thank you.

Really friendly, polite staff that ensured we had seats and the table was clean.Good athmosphere.Pie, mash and liquor was all cooked to perfection. Loved tasting the parsley in the liquor. Chilli vinegar had a decent kick to it.Decent price.Will try the salt beef next time.Well worth a visit

This is a very busy shop sell lovely pie and mash with liquor, and you just have to have chilli vinegar with it. They also sell salt beef bagels with so much beef in it there is enough for another sandwich later. Well worth the money lovely pleasant staff.

I popped in here for a quick bite at lunch time. They were very busy so I decided to have a takeaway salt beef beigal. It was enormous and absolutely delicious. The beef was incredibly tender and went really well with the mustard and pickles. Super value too at £3.20. I'll be back.

Picked up Pie and Mash for the office today. Maureen's dished up the perfect order. Piping hot great east end grub which was exactly what the boys wanted. We will definitely use them again . Tip the pint of Guinness at Callaghans next door was superb.

Had the best salted beef bagel ever! Just can't believe people are queuing at brick lane for a grotty equivalent! The staff treated us so beautifully and the place was crystal clean! I mean I am definitely going back! Thank you guys!

2+2, 1+1 and 2 mugs of Rosy for just a bit over a tenner, what a bargain!If you've never been to a pie and mash shop before that's two pies and double mash and one pie and single mash with two mugs of tea, all for £10.80.What a great place, wonderful traditional food on a cold day with a warm welcome. Even if it's your first visit you will feel like a regular, just sit and watch the world go by as you have your dinner.

Very friendly welcome from this lovely traditional pie & mash shop, pies great would throughly recommend!

This is the top of pie shops and salt beef ! I have been to every pie mash north of the river ( wouldn't eat in South London ) savages ! She must be baking the bagels they are better than Brick Lane and a lot more meat in them , good price for what you get , service excellence , keep it up Mareens your the best in my opinion for shore

Great traditional pie and mash. Service with a smile. Good value for money. Nice clean place to eat. Recommend to anyone in the area.

I love the salt beef sandwiches they are the best ... especially when you are hungover , the meat is juicy and thick ... worth the money

What can I say, being a life long Peckham boy it pains me to say this.But after years of using Arments on the Westmoreland Road SE 17 and Goddards at Greenwich but I've crossed the river and Maureens is my local pie and mash shop and it knocks both these off the top spot for me.Great light pastry on the pies, good flavour on the liquor, chilli vinegar that has a right punch to it just hits the right spot! I always get collared to pick up a load of take away for the old boys I know who can't get out for pie and mash theses days.The salt beef dinners or beigels also offer great comfort food and are worth a try if your a pie a phobic.Theres always a genuine warm welcome when you come in and its great to see Maureens serving customers from all the diverse backgrounds you see in Poplar, some with their new bourns in tow. Which gives me hope that the tradition of pie and mash will continue for many generations to come.

A few of us walked from our office in search of traditional east end pie, mash and gravy. Arrived at Maureen's where we were served the local liquor with our mash instead of gravy... yes it appears a little odd, but with a splash of vinegar it is surprisingly tasty.The pie choice is mince or mince. But that is the pure simplicity of the place. It was packed and for under £4.00 for a hot and wholesome lunch it is great value.Go try!!

Best pie and mash in east London, you can't beat it!! Pies are cooked perfect and liquor is gorgeous with vinegar!!!

Fantastic proper pies, mash and liquor. The best. Dont get confused with the other Pie and mash shop in the market :-)

This is a friendly pie n mash shop good food excellent service pies best mash is below par too watery needs less moisture more spud in my opinion

Very well priced. Local legend. Always popular. Lovely staff. Salt beef is fantastic. Have the pickles and mustard too. All Saints is nearest DLR.

East end treasureLittle cafe in Chrisp St market and a local gem, the sandwiches are huge and the prices low. Well cooked, promptly served, the cafe is full of chatter and people talking to each other.It's ace.

Lovely Pies, Smooth Mash, Liquor, Chilli Vinegar and the lovely ladies behind the counter. You cant go wrong with Maureens! Also worth stopping at the local bakers for a cake or two afterwards.

I am so glad a friend of mine recommended this place. I was passing by every day and had never eaten there before. They have great english food/breakfast/brunch and their prices are even better. Portion are big and quality is superb. It can be easily missed because of the outdated decor and limited opening hours. But definetily worths a visit!

£5.40 with a cup of tea, best eaten when chilly outside, this is a real winter warmer, 10 out of 10 for everything, staff are brilliant! Might need to buy the shop next door more seating needed!

Recommended to try Maureen's pie and mash. We weren't disappointed. What a pleasure the staff were, so helpful and accommodating. The pies were best we had had in long time as always have pie and mash when visiting London. We even brought pies and liqueur home for our sons. We just couldn't leave without the salt beef sandwiches and bagel which again proved to be extremely delicious. We will be back. Thank you ladies for a great experience.

this is one of most friendly place to eat the staff are wonderful and very helpful the pie and mash are also excellent this is place to be in crisp street please visit as soon as possible i will be back keep up good work tony mbe

Really great pie and gravy. Good value for money. Very friendly staff and nice clean feel to the place. Will go back in a heartbeat

Use to go to Maureen's for Pie Mash and they once ran a Pie Mash shop on the Isle of Wight and that was great.Lovely pies.Great Salt Beef and the small pies are wonderful.Very friendly service and excellent prices.

The pie and mash was delicious, served lovely and hot, tasty and by lovely friendly ladies. So cheap too, great value we will return.

Since my Pie and Mash shop of choice closed in West Ham many years ago, have travelled far and wide trying to find something as good. Maureens is hands down the best Pie & Mash I've found, return as regular as I can over the last 10 years or so. If you can't get there that often, take home a bakers dozen & put em in the freezer. I did go to Manzies once, think that says it all :)

When I visit Italy, Greece or Spain, I try to avoid the obvious tourist eating places, and eat like the locals. Well, Maureen's is the place to go if you want to try East End local eating! Two mince beef pies, silky mash and liquor (parsley sauce to the uninitiated), a mug of tea (tell them if you don't want sugar), and change from a fiver! Their salt beef sandwiches are great, too, and less than half the price of West End places. White tiles, plastic tables, big bottles of malt vinegar. And if you are not a native East Ender, listen to the accents!

I haven't lived in London for a long time.. but always make sure I get to Poplar and buy pie and liquor. Can't beat this, if you want fantastic traditional east end food, make sure you visit this place.

After living here for two years we finally visited.We had the salt beef sandwich...Oh my...Huge!Delicious!Great service, great people, great prices, limited menu done well.Will return countless times.

Friendly little café in Chrisp Street market that does good old traditional pie and mash.Such a friendly welcome!!!!!Order up 2 and 2 with liquor and you get two minced beef pies, a double portion of mashed potato and loads of lovely liquor. This is more than enough to fill you up. Loads of salt, pepper and vinegar and tuck in with a fork and spoon. What could be better.Don't expect fancy pie fillings. That's not what pie and mash is about. It's not gastro, it's not pretentious, it's just honest simple grub that's fed the east end for donkey's years.Give it a try. One of the best pie and mash's in town.

Lovely food and friendly staff. The mash is to die for!! I've been going to this pie Mash shop for years and have never been let down!

Excellent & authentic Cockney grub in a friendly, bustling little cafe. The light, crispy pastry encases a tasty filling, accompanied by lots of fluffy mash & fragrant liquor, washed down by a large, steaming mug of tea. You can fill yourself to bursting & wallow in a piece of East End history, for very little money. Don't miss it.

When visiting London, people think that to try the local food establishment your only choice is Fish and chip shops. Well that's our national Dish. So how's about trying this Local specialty.Pie Mash and Eel shops are renowned around Eastand South East London as the Local Specialty. It is a filling hot meal. These restaurants are not for those who want variety of Menu. Your choices are Pie and Mash or Eel and Mash or both. Your other choice is one pie or two.Of the many Pie and mash Shops I have been to. Maureen's is by far the best. The staff are friendly and helpful, the pies are delicious. This one is not traditional in Decoration, but don't let that put you off. You visit once, I bet you go again.

Salt beef, mash, peas carrots, gravy & a cup of tea £5.40!! As a serious CEO ( Chief Eater Outer) I love my food and can genuinely say this meal is world class and you get plenty of it. Went in there for pie mash several months ago and saw someone with this on their plate, well all my xmas's came at once, in there every week since, spotlessly clean, excellent old school service, sets you up for the day, not open on Mondays though, I love it. Parking in car park across from market is free! Great meeting place.
