Best catering in League 1?

[Cerberus Blade]

I don't mean Executive stuff because I don't know about that, but normal match day fare for the fans?

I think Chesterfield takes some beating with its locally made tasty meat pies and real ale on hand pump. But Shrewsbury do a nice cottage pie, topped with mashed potato - quite unusual!

 

[Tyler Durden]

Old Trafford. Serves a high volume of people in a timely manner.

Although Boltons queue-buster kiosk on Sunday was also very efficient. Better coffee than the pisswatter they have at the Lane too to be honest.

Didn't read the 'League 1' bit.

That strikes Old Trafford off. Whoops.

I had a pie at Chesterfield, Threw most of it away as the pastry was hard and dry. Tasty enough, but it wasnt filled with filling

I remember paying £2.80 for a battle hardened sausage roll on John street five years ago that the rest of the stand had skilfully avoided... my lad wanted it..

It fell to pieces like an old relic in the bright sun for the fist time in centuries...

bramall lane catering is shite ....in case you're wondering..

Bury do the best pie I've ever had at a football match. Special mention for Rochdale, too.

 

[Billyblade]

I make sure I've eaten enough before kick off to last me til the end of the match. I have enough body reserves to last 2 hours without eating.

This is mainly so I can avoid the overpriced wank food that is served up in football grounds (in fact it's not just football grounds it's all entertainment venues)

I have enough body reserves to last several luna cycles, but I still enjoy a pie at the game.

The pie I had on Sunday was disgusting ,cold ,just like old cardboard with some vomit inside. My mates was too hot and had a bone in it. It was seriously like sitting a bushtucker trial. Bovril was good but maybe I was comparing it.
Charlton was easily the best Ive had in years ,nice pint ,nice pie and a good cup of tea at half time. Cheerful young lasses having a laugh serving you too. I know we should have been boycotting but balls to that ,Im glad they shouldn't have equalised.

I wouldn't enjoy that pie knowing that I'd paid way more than it was actually worth and that it was actually wank

No, not really. I only buy things that I think are worth the money

 

[SE9 Blade]

Went to MK Dons v Blades at the National Hockey Stadium, seat allocation was a farce (everyone had the same seat number) but have never before or since, seen such a range of food available at a football match, pizza, fish and chips, mexican, etc.

I sort of got round the boycott by getting a cheeseburger from one of the vans outside. Bloody scrumptious it was.

If I'm being honest, the best pies I've personally had are at Vale Park. I just hate Port Vale so I didn't want to give them any credit.

Bet you've not watched united for years then!

 

[COME BACK CHED]

Hairy pie is best and it always seams to be quite hairy at Millwall . Chezzy pies rock BTW .

 

[Billyblade]

Ha! You see that's the thing. Other people may not think that paying to watch football is worth the money we pay. I, however, do.
I suppose it's the same with pies

 

[Classof85]

Oldham was good had Chicken Curry and chips for a fiver, was one of nicest generic curries ive had and ive had a fair few

 

[Pedro Verde]

Who in their right mind would want to buy any food from inside a football ground
I would rather starve

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

When we played Exeter on the last day of the 2012 season we had tickets for the main home stand and I could've sworn they had an actual Pizza Hut just inside the turnstiles.

The ground itself is like something out of non league football so it was the most out of place looking thing ever.

 

[SteveBlade]

£3.50 for a watery pie with 2 pieces of 'meat' floating in it, followed by a £1.99 Snickers and washed down with a £3 bottle of Coke.

Not even once.

 

[seanbeenstattoo]

It always baffles me why folk buy food on low cost (LOL) airlines at 20 x market price.
"FFS you won't starve to death in the 2 hours it takes you to get to Shagaluf or whichever chav resort you're going to you stupid fat cunt with your fat fucking kids" I always think.

Our lass has to do a 12-hour haul to Ecuador in April. That's 3 in-flight meals if she eats their shite.

Fully expect her hand luggage to turn into the world's largest lunch box

I came in to say bury. I lov chicken balti pies, but theirs was something else the last time I went

If she does it in 12 hours I'll take my hat off to her.

 

[ForgeBlade]

Can't really speak for L1 as I don't get to many away games any more, but during our 05/06 promotion season I conducted a highly scientific survey* of the Balti pies on offer at every single ground in the championship that season. Plymouth's pies were delicious (so good I had 2) and by far the best in the division that year.

Norwich on the other hand...despite trumpeting "Delia's Pies" for all the league to see, the balti pie I had there was frankly fucking awful. Watery, thin "curry" in a pie crust that was so thin you could see through it. Never again.

*highly scientific survey = carted my fat arse to every match that season and ate at least 1 balti pie at every match. From memory the most I had was 4 at millwall. They weren't as good as the plymouth ones, I just had more spare cash that day.

I love airline food. Not because it tastes nice but because it's like unwrapping a load of little presents that you've waited patiently to receive. And in the boredom of a long plane journey, any sensory experience other than the hum of the engines and the sight of the seat in front of you is most welcome.

I sometimes pay for the stuff too - that's how much I mean it.

pity a poor vegan

That's the one I had. Out of this world.

Really wish United would stop looking at shitty Pukka contracts and turn their attention locally. I'd pay a minimum of a fiver for a Broadfield pie at half time.

If you've not had a pie from The Broadfield on Abbeydale Rd, give it a go. You'll not eat 'til the next day.
