Pies

[HibsGW]

Diabolic. Just like the defending

[HH81]

It's just a pie. Defending is a worry though.

[HibsGW]

Actually think we’ve played alright but you’ll never succeed giving goals away so cheaply. Will not be a pleasant place on here if we end up losing today, need to get Allan and Middleton plenty of the ball and get back at them

[SideBurns]

If only the defending was as rock hard as the pies.

[calumhibee1]

If only the defending was as rock hard as the pies.

When I see Scott Allan I’m rock hard like the pies.

[HibsGW]

Soft in the middle and fragile. Sounds about right

I've often taking my own food in with me partly due to me being a non meat eater, the catering in the stadium being mediocre with not much if anything that would tempt me to buy and also not wanting to spend time in a queue while missing the match.

So in short...yes no problem taking in your own food. Cheaper and better.

[Mr Grieves]

First pie in the stadium for years, not bad.

muchas gracias :aok: greggs it is

[hibbycraig]

I still don't understand why people buy the food on
offer. Everyone knows it's overpriced and crap. 2 bakers and loads of cafes on Easter road you can get stuff from and take in at probably half the price.

[staunchhibby]

Think its about time food kiosks should be boycotted.Does not look like the board or others are paying attention to the crap on offer.

[staunchhibby]

Watching with interest

[Greencore]

Were the pizzas OK? Never go for a pizza always a scotch pie. However might be tempted to switch.

100% will be improved for next season.

Worth the wait.

[Hermit Crab]

Buy hee haw from these jokers, overpriced and very poor quality.

How do you know they are poor quality if you dont buy from them!!

[bigwheel]

Not something I often do..but was in early yesterday, hadn’t had lunch, so bought a scotch pie ...thought it was decent [emoji106]

[Sammy7nil]

:aok:

[Barney McGrew]

It’s only a couple of games into the competitive season, so surely it’s far too early to be making a decision on the pies?

We should give them at least until the end of the transfer window.

[calumhibee1]

My pie was lovely.

[PatHead]

Had a pie at the St Mirren match and it was awful. Only 2 staff serving the whole kiosk. Had one yesterday and it was fine. 4 staff serving so queue moved fine.

Can't complain this week.

[mim]

Same here. There is nothing wrong with the quality of the scotch pies. The problem is that they are usually left in the heaters until the base is brick hard. I enjoyed my pie yesterday.

[Jones28]

Can we follow on from the other games threads and just have one giant pie thread for the season instead of one come up every game?

[bigwheel]

One giant pie....now there’s an idea....

[RoYO!]

Just don’t buy them. The club clearly don’t think there’s a problem.

They will if takings plummet.

[Allant1981]

Dont think the club make money from what ever the catering company sells

Ah I thought they were back in house.

[Allant1981]

Ah I thought they were back in house.

Think it's still an external company

[PatHead]

It is an external company. Pretty sure this is the last season of a 10 year deal.

Roll on next season.

[HappyAsHellas]

Which company actually supplies/makes the pies? Just out of interest, I would never approach a baker in his place of employment and tell him he was crap at his job, I mean that sort of thing never happens in polite society.

I would like to know this so I can get some for the house.

[greenlex]

I managed the whole 120 mins without the need to stuff my puss.

[Gmack7]

just get greggs to do the catering and negotiate a sell on % for any pie sold

[H18 SFR]

Greggs is rotten.

**** Greggs, Baynes every day of the week

[The Modfather]

I wish Hibs had just said this, rather than keep telling us each year catering is “under review” when the reality is we just have to wait until the current contract runs out.

[Jones28]

You would just go elsewhere eh?

FWIW the pies are decent, it’s just the price I boke at.

A 10 year deal for pies. That's ridiculous. Who in their right mind would tie us down to that long a deal for a pie. Rodders.

[Clarence]

Good for you. It’s just a wee pie at half time. Not a life statement.

[Billy Whizz]

Greggs is rotten.

I’d agree with that
Think we need to get some easy things on the menu, Chicken/Ham salad roll in the better months, Stovies in the winter
Wouldn’t be hard to make these up

[SteveHFC]

Celtic sell domino’s at Parkhead. We could do the same.

[iwasthere1972]

Do they get a double one?

[cabbageandribs1875]

we should have dominoes at ER, set up tables in the concourses, sommit to do whilst the game is on



i'd play anyone for a crisp £20 note, anyone

rumoured to have his finger in a few pies :) but anyway, i thought it was only jim McLean that used to offer several year contracts

I've said numerous times that I've normally taken my own food with me. Partly due to me not eating meat and not fancying anything on the menu. I've tried the chips but they're like wooden clothes pegs. Occasionally I think there's been soup on the menu but that's sold out quickly. Probably only made one pot full. Goodness knows how long it would take to me up a roll. The food is expensive mainly due to the short window that they have to sell it.

[SquashedFrogg]

Good for you. It’s just a wee pie at half time. Not a life statement.

To be fair, when in ordinary life does someone eat a pie inbetween lunch and dinner? Always found it quite a strange concept.

Also, if you stuck one if these kiosks outside the stadium (on Easter Road for example) would anyone actually buy anything from it?

Rhetorical questions I guess.

[Bostonhibby]

It’s only a couple of games into the competitive season, so surely it’s far too early to be making a decision on the pies?

We should give them at least until the end of the transfer window.Couldn't we get some on loan from Kilmarnock? Or maybe an English Club from no lower than the top end of the Championship or the EPL, none of that lower league crap.

Sat in the east today for a change from my regular West lower seat. Had a steak pie at HT and mine wasn't bad at all.

No pie is really worth £2.90 but I still bought and enjoyed it.

[we are hibs]

Only time i eat at games is if ive been drinking pre match. Always feel starving and keep forgetting the pies arent very nice

These guys have still got to earn a crust. What about the pies we had ten years ago. Could they still do a job for us?

I don’t know what to tell you mate. This is a world where strange things happen. Some fish fly, some birds swim and some people don’t keep to regular mealtimes on a Saturday when they are out with their pals.

[beensaidbefore]

Try stories doon the walk...great hawkeyes 😎

Had a mince on Friday, had to chuck it, undercooked. Stories usually pretty good though

I completely forgot that pies were the food of choice when out on a Saturday with pals.

Cool response though 👍 I'll probably pinch it for future conversations 😀

More like a 10 year deal for the service, equipment, staff and the "consumables". Lots not wanting us the invest in infrastructure would go appoplectic with rage is we started splurging on catering equipment and deep fat friers instead of wee Jase😋

[Scouse Hibee]

Different pies at Killie now, Brownings stopped supplying them a couple of years back after dispute over trademarking “Killie”

The Brownings version are however still available in Waitrose as are their bridies :agree:

[iwasthere1972]

So how much is a pie at Easter Road?

They're £3.50 In Barbados, £4.00 In Jamaica and £4.50 in Puerto Rico.

That's the Pie-rates of the Caribbean.

:greengrin Just think of all the money that you will save. You could of course buy them from somewhere that sells them and just cook them at home. Pop them in your pocket just before you leave home.

Steak pie in west upper at HT yesterday - felt like a little more gravy than before, but pie was able to lifted from casing without collapsing, albeit requiring to be held at a 45 degree angle to do so. Decent effort and an 8/10 from me.

My pie was also an 8/10. Same as every week. Good meat to gravy ratio, the pastry was solid and it was served at optimum eating temperature. Splash of brown sauce on the top and it was a splendid lunch.

[BILLYHIBS]

Got two piping hot Steak Pies from Baynes on Easter Road only £3.20

Nice warm succulent and tender in ma jaicket poakit at half time

Gave one to the laddie of course

10/10

[staunchhibby]

two chicken & ham pies Lawsons at Uphall princely sum of £2-50p:wink:

[Fuzzywuzzy]

Went to the ice hockey tonight. Purchased the following

2 slushies
2 hotdogs
1 bottle of water
1 cup of tea

£7.50

Our equivalent would be double that. Although, kids wired out their nut on slushies at Easter Road is the thing of nightmares

i think it was yourself that answered a while back that we can take food in ? it was a lovely day so just stood outside op the club shop, is this "fact" food is allowed to be taken inside the stadium ?



p.s. i can confirm sausage rolls purchased at greggs bathgate branch travel well :)

[mca]

Mid to late 1980s ... I can remember a tabloid newspaper articles saying that - Hibs Pies were voted better than Killie Pies...


Was like a scottish football Pie Table of who had the best pies... Hibs and Killie were always near the top for about 4-5 years...


Does anyone know - Who made our pies back in the 80's.... ???

[iwasthere1972]

Yes it was me. I've taken food into the stadium on numerous occasions. Normally veggie sausage rolls packed away in my jacket pocket. Three in each pocket as a balanced meal. Never had a problem with taking them into the stadium and I can't see anything in Hibs rules and regulations saying that you can't. Says in Rangers rules and regulations (theirs came up when I googled :"Are you allowed to take food into football stadiums" that you are allowed to take in food within reason. Covering themselves in case someone buys 36 sausage rolls from the Govan Greggs and tries to sell them in the ground.
