A friend is coming to visit from overseas. He says what he misses most about UK food is a good pie. So where's the best place to go for a pie and a pint in Lewes or surrounding villages. Extra points for good beer. Cheers!

The best locally made pies (in shoreham) are to be found at the AMEX stadium and they do a deal pie and a pint.....

I`m a fan of the pies at The Cock inn just outside Lewes. Decent beers as well
You might even get to enjoy the garden if you have an indian-summer day

Home made! Pub grub mainly comes frozen from Booker or Brake Bros. Not many would make their own from scratch.

None of above pub pies are made locally.......

The pies from the Amex are made at Piglets Pantry in Worthing. Higgidy Pies make pies in Shoreham. Both are excellent but not sure where you can get them near Lewes.

Bangers Pie shop in Baker St Brighton (just off London Road). They actually make the pies on the premises. Cheap, full of meat and gravy. Plus “flavour of the month”.

I spy, is it tinned meat they use or do they cook their own filling from scratch? I used to work in a bakery, the pastry was pretty made in powder form (we had to add water) and the fillings came in catering sized cans. Still, I suppose you can call them hand made if you have to mix the pastry product and tip in the canned gunk!

Holmansbridge farm in Barcombe. The best pies in the area by a long stretch. All home made!

The Roebuck in Laughton normally do at least one pie on the menu, the last one I had was gorgeous. Burning Sky & Harvey's plus other guests.
If that's too far, The Anchor at Ringmer also have served a nice pie in the past. I think they also serve Burning Sky.

For a traditional pie and pint, go to the Gardeners Arms in the Cliffe. The pies are not the usual commercial fare, but are sourced from local quality butchers. Add a good range of beers; it is well worth trying.

I suspect he wasn’t talking about your pastry with filling kind of pie.

The Steak and Stilton pie at the Green Man in Ringmer is the beast. They do others aswell and ate all good.

Thanks all. Ended up in bangers in Brighton, took steak pies to a nearby pub. It was absolutely fine for what it was - the kind of pie you eat with your hands. Not going to win any prizes but tasty and cheap.
