Mottie Pie and Mash in Sevenoaks

A lovely pie and mesh but counter staff Gemma absolutely rude I do not like the girl never been back since get rid of sarcastic rude staff

Pie and mash good old traditional serving, had three pies and mash and a drink £12 thought that was a fair price if I’m honest. Good service hot food, and friendly staff

Pie mash excellent. Staff very friendly. If others dont like the variety of food they should go to a cafe. Leave the rest of us to enjoy our pie mash. The traditional way.

Cold dirty seats and tables, crockery looks like it needs to go on a hot wash. Poor quality bread eggs etc. And to top all this a rude pseudo suffe London attitude, could and should be so much better.

2 prawn jacket potatoes came absolutely SWIMMING in mayonnaise sauce. Was it to hide poor potatoes or very few prawns I wonder? One taste, it was inedible. Took them back to the counter, the lady said ‘Next time ask for not much sauce’, I’ve never had to do that before ANYWHERE. Then she came to our table and said customers come in every week and love it! No offer of anything else, no offer of a refund. As though it was our fault. Extremely poor customer service. We will not be back a second time and will spread the word.

Stopped of at motties while in town shopping and was surprised at the range of food available. My daughter had pie and mash with cold drink, my wife had a full breakfast with coffee, and I went for their mixed salad with tea. All were served quite prompt considering the amount of customers already seated. With friendly staff that were having a general chat with everyone there it felt although we were amongst friends. Would highly recommend this Cafe for a stop over. The only down side I could see was that it is quite packed making it difficult for anyone using a mobility aid ie: Zimmer/wheelchair although staff were happy to move furniture around to accommodate.

Had Pie and Mash Here and Quite Honestly you cant Beat it , Used to Go To Arments at Walworth Road and Manzes Tower Bridge Road , But can Hand on Heart Say This is Just as Good !!

Popped in for a cuppa, sat down, got served one cup out of three and then told we cant stay as we are not eating. We usually order drink first then food. The Staff were rude and said it is getting busy. There were many tables still empty. I told th very rude non server we wont be coming back. Dont bother very rude

Lazy staff, inattentive. Half an hour to not serve a breakfast. Can't recommend you avoid this at all costs.

I have been coming to this place for a few years now Always have really good good Usally have the breakfast which is excellent or the pie and mash which I love too Today opted for the omelette was not disappointed Service is friendly and welcoming

Always receive brilliant service the girls are so friendly and helpful .. Pie mash lovely .. regular customer dint go anywhere else for our pie mash !! Well done Motties 👍

I went to the counter and ordered, they said “it’s the best breakfast in Swanley” and they didn’t lie. Bacon, sausage, beans, mushroom bread, tea and bubble... oh the bubble! It was gorgeous! All good quality ingredients and all prepared just like mum would do. It’s got an old fashioned lo-fi feel with plain wooden benches. No major frills or mood lighting, no over the top designer gear, that might add to the price of the meal. It’s like an old fashioned traditional pie and mash shop. The service is also old fashioned - in that they take the time to talk to you, keep you happy, welcoming with a “darling” and a “sweet”. It’s like stepping into the good old days of good service and good food and has me quite nostalgic. I’ll be coming back for another best breakfast in Swanley.

Good service. Good portions. You get what’s on the tin. Pie and mash. Traditional. Expect to pay £5 for a pie and mash

Really friendly here with a warm welcome. Lush coffee and good food. Would come back. They have no customer toilets but you can use Asda over the road.

Great place very friendly Family friendly good food at a good price I would highly recommend Thanks kids love it

We’ve been here many times and always thoroughly enjoyed their pie and mash. The staff are always cheerful and helpful and although the serving plates are usually cold they will heat them for you if you ask. They also do a good selection of other meals but I cannot review them as we only go there for the pie and mash. Decor is basic, with wooden bench seating and in the summer have tables and chairs outside.

Found the pies sweet and the mash to creamy, also quite expensive,. still a better option than a fast food outlet, as a cafe there are other food options

Just look at the photo of that awful breakfast, and that sums up this eatery perfectly.You will come out with clothes smelling of the awful fry up.Dont waste your money here,Asda is opposite offering cheaper better cooked fare.

Mottie been there for a very long time, they serve the pie and mash the old fashion way, even the shop itself is old but the staffs and the food are very good, it’s lovly when you don’t have the time to sit in a restaurant , it’s inexspen, good for a quick lunch.

This is a great little restaurant and ideal if you love pie n mash we visit now and again when in the area as its always a reason to visit Swanley fab food

Awesome pie and mash. Free cuppa cos we waited for fresh pies. Had loads from here. Always great! Highly recommend for any food they serve!! ☺️☺️

My family and I always have pie and mash at Motties on Christmas Eve. It’s been our tradition for years. We never go anywhere else. Quality food for decent prices. Ive seen their breakfasts as well and they look amazing.

Got in to take a way 2 burger meals with chips and drinks then rain started and we decided to stay in and eat ...., then the guy did not give me 1 portion of chips because he asked me to pay £1.50 fee for eating in the cafe ! Very unprofessional and rude as we was gonna take away and go but rain started so he decided not to give us the chips and nothing said about it !

Been using this for a few years. Traditional and flavoursome. Well worth a visit. Staff are friendly and helpful.

This place is brilliant If you don't visit you are missing out. The breakfast is fantastic much better then you'd get in most cafes Good quality sausages and bacon and nice grilled tomatoes The pie and mash is excellent too and filling

If you want proper pie mash do not come here. Not authentic pie and mash. Their fry ups are better. This is more a cafe than pie mash shop and the mash tastes like instant mash!

The food in here is no frills,but very tasty no nonsense good food. The owners and staff are really friendly and helpful,and will adapt the menu to you taste without any fuss.

As a child I was brought up on manzies pie and mash. Motties is fabulous very authentic!. Pat the owner is a delight

Grey liquor and tasteless pies one of mine contained a 20p piece!

Pequeño café muy agradable con un personal fantástico pastel y puré. Nada más que decir, pero en si su cerca de pop. Buenos precios, dentro y fuera para comer. Incluso tomar órdenes por teléfono a recogerse más tarde.

Great full English breakfast and a proper cup of tea or coffee, great welcome and great service I would recommend Mottie's any day

Nice little cafe, good home cooked food and very pleasant and friendly staff. No toilets but close to asda that have got public toilets so not a problem.

More interested in answering the phone or talking to people in the kitchen and concentrating on the customers. Get the impression you are in the way and you shouldn't really be bothering them, seem friendlier to locals could do with a custom skills course under their belt. Pie & mash somewhat now expensive so at least like the service to match the price...

Motties is what it is. A good, honest pie and mash shop. I usually have a fry up there and it is really good, crusty bread and proper sausages. It isn't fancy grub but as east end style cafe's go its up there.The ladies who run the place are friendly and down to earth.

I guess Swanley will never be high on the list for anyone to go to, but this café in the centre of the pedestrianized area come highly recommended. The front of it is one large window and inside the walls are tiled, as is the floor, and there are plenty of framed photographs of local scenes on the walls, along with six large mirrors. My meal, an all-day breakfast was quickly served (and the coffee was huge) and there was plenty of food on the plate. The tomatoes were fresh, the bubble and squeak well-cooked and the sausages contained meat and not "filler" (always the sign of a decent café!!!) and did not explode when cooked. The food was very good and the café was clean. My only small moan is the seating which are is the seating, which is made up of wooden stiff-backed upright chairs/benches and it is a bit cramped. That aside this café come highly recommended and the prices were reasonable too.

Pie mash in Swanley town centre. The only good thing about the town centre if I say so my self.The pie mash is traditional Pie mash and the liquor is one of the best.You can also have anything else in there from sandwiches to cooked dinners.The sandwiches are made with proper bread so big chunky doorstep bacon sandwiches are a must.The jacket potatoes are great value for money and fillings are plenty full.Highly recommand this establishment and the wonderful lady who runs it.

Another great pie and mash, had it a few places now over london and theses pies are the best, salad and jacket potatoes are really good and fresh too, not microwaved

Living locally it is so easy to just pop up the road and treat ourselves to a lovely pie and mash, the owner being a Londoner knows what pie and mash is all about. The food is good the shop is clean and tidy and the atmosphere is good. Almost my second home.

was visiting swanley from the isle of wight to look at a puppy. we needed a bite to eat. couldn't believe it when I saw a pie and mash shop there. rushed in and sure enough it was the bees knees. if you don't want the hassle of inner London then go here it really is the pukka place.

Having a member of staff from London really helps this shop and is the best pie mash shop you will find in Kent without question, is the closest thing you will get to traditional london pie and mash Would recommend any one from kent who is looking for a good pie and mash shop here is the best have used time and time again and the portions are more than ample!Great work guys! From a bermondsey boy

I've have visited many numerous pie n mash shops over the years (Kelly's, Robins, Manzes & Roy's) and this is up there with the best of them. Priced quite reasonable as well. Well worth a visit!

Authentic Pie and Mash shop, nice food. Also serve eels though I have never tried them. There are other choices of sandwiches, breakfasts, jacket potatoes, etc on the menu for people who don't like the traditional pie and mash.

Have used Mottis for years, when shopping or at The Market but my last visit wasn't the best , the place seems to have gone down hill dirty tables food not cooked properly cutlery grubby and some new mugs wouldn't go a miss and never get a serviett come on Motties sort it out

Probably serves one of the best tasting pie and mash dinners available. Very friendly and polite service. Well worth visiting to taste this old London tradition. This shop has Costas coffee on one side and Subways on the other, they had better be worried as this place takes some beating !!

Always really friendly and full. Great, simple food and the bacon and egg sandwiches are fabulous. A truly authentic, simple, no-frills experience.Good value for money and all of Swanley can be seen there

Lovely Pie n Mash shop in the good old London tradition. Although in Swanley, Kent it keeps all the tradition of this Cockney meal going. Worth a visit.

What is there to say.... it was an experience. First time in a Pie and Mash Shop. Often wondered about the jellied eels, pie and mash. The mash was ordinary and slightly cold. The eels were non existent (so maybe it was a blessing in disguise), the pie was slightly charred - the mince was real beef and the liqueur nicely congealed with no real flavour. I am not an expert so I have no idea what and how it should be. I got the feeling that it was all delivered in and the ladies simply reheat and dish up. The actual place was a little run down and the booths were to American for such a British set up. However, what I have to say is immaterial because it was heaving with people. All of them happy and content, most of them in for a chat and a good ole laugh. So what do I know???

Ok let us first talk about the elephant in the room. Mottie's is not much to look at, the decor is dated and you sit in home built booths (American Diner Style). For me this is not an issue and adds to its non pretentiousness. On the other hand it has a 5* food and hygiene grading which some major restaurant/food chains struggle to achieve (go look at beefeater London road). The food is fresh, traditionally English and very yummy. It is not a fast food restaurant by any stretch of the imagination but if you want freshly prepared food that is good quality it takes a little time (10 - 15 mins). I had a breakfast sandwich of bacon, egg & mushrooms on fresh, soft hand cut bread that was absolutely delicious. Fresh cooked bacon over pre-cooked is a no brainier. The egg was cooked just right so the yolk was still soft and gooey. The mushrooms like butter melting in the mouth. All in all just a very good simple restaurant serving really good food - what more do you want?

Food is ready almost instantly. Clean place but very busy on market days (Wednesdays) but worth the wait. My friend joins me there and travels all the way from Maidstone especially. Been going there for years!

Mottie's Pie and Mash shop is what I imagine English folk would call down home cooking. There is nothing fancy about the food or the restaurant. The menu offers b'fast and other lunch items but as the name suggests pie and mash is the mainstay. The choice of pie is one pie or two pies. They are all beef pies and they are good. I like mine with gravy but everyone else in my family loves the liquor. Good value for solid meal.

Pie & Mash, a favourite cockney meal. Motties not bad but expensive for what you get. Have had better.

popped in here for first time as work in area occasionally , wont be only time, pie mash liquor and a cuppa under a fiver and was generous helping too.. after seeing breakfasts that has to be tried on my next visit ! staff are friendly and proper old skool restaurant feel to it

Love the food in here, great pie and mash and breakfasts, best bubble I've had. I always eat here when I'm in Swanley, the doorstop sandwiches and salads are excellent and good value, the staff are friendly and I like the fact they use proper bread and sausages and the ketchup doesn't taste like vinegar!

Stumbled upon this pie & mash cafe by accident, glad i did. The place was really busy always a good sign. Complete mix of people inside. Friendly and helpful staff, quick service and great pie & mash.

We have visited a few times as we are fond of pie and mash. The service is quick and the staff are friendly, the food is tasty and and at £7-40 for pie and mash twice an inexpensive lunch while doing the shopping is a handy treat. There are also a couple of tables outside weather permitting which is a bonus. Enjoyed our lunch and will no doubt return again.

I have been eating in pie and mash shops in london all my life, started eating here when they first opened and have been going back ever since. Great food, and the staff are really friendly and always welcoming.

Those who love to do their own mash will love this place as the pies and liquor are spot on, the mash however was disappointing but overall £5.40 for double pie single mash and liquor was a worth while visit
