Bought a large Handleys cheese and onion pie from my local shop. It has to be the worst I have ever…read moretasted. The description should be "Handleys lumpy mashed potato pie" Virtually no cheese or onion in it and the lumps were simply uncooked pieces of spud. Given the price (over £3.00) it broke my heart to throw it in the bin but it was the only place for it.

Fantastic produce, all freshly made on the premises. It is now the best place for pies in and…read morearound Chorley! Don't believe me? Just check out the queues! Pie heaven..

Small bakery Shop. Busy little shop, sell nice pies and…read morecakes. Would be great, but for some reason they stopped selling the curry pies. Never saw it the same after that. And for some unknown reason i always end up going in when I'm really hungry and all the pies have gone.

This shop has been established since the 1930's, and is a family run business. We have been buying…read morehere nearly all our lives. The Eaves lane shop has recently undergone a dramatic refurbishment when the main shop was taken over by the Spar group, leaving the main pie and sandwich shop intact. Avery busy venue, the quality of its produce speaks volumes, we use it as a weekly treat and enjoy meat and potato pies, with a jam slice. You can aslo choose hot soups, cakes, sandwiches and if you have a special occasion they will make and ice birthday or celebration cakes. They have also further branched into the catering business and cater for outside events. They also run a couple of small outlets. Ever popular,i can't see them ever going out of business.

Saw this place on our way to Lidl a few times and thought we would pop in…read more We got there earlier than it opened so we waited around the back, the staff were all hush and sorting things out from the bakery and what not and the stuff I saw them with looked lovely. We went in, sat down and the breakfast menu was pretty good. Got ordered and when it came it was great. I just went for a basic sausage barm with an orange juice as it was super hot. The barm was proper home made ... but if a chew to it which was awesome and the sausage were lovely. Also got some basic toast and it was home made bloomer with butter than that was delicious. The cake and pastry cabinet by the film looked lovely. We were the first in so it was quiet, but a bit later on a few more people came and it looks like it can get really busy but it's a good place so deffo will get busy.

All You Knead is a great quality artisan bakery, specialising in everything from cakes and focaccia…read morebread, to hot sausage rolls, novelty bread crocodiles, and amazing hot cross buns at Easter! They're constantly making fresh batches of loaves, cobs, bloomers and buns, and all for a great price. They have a few shelves of "yesterday's bake" so you can still catch things while they're fresh (and they're still soft and perfect!), and a "grab them whilst your can" set of shelves, where you can grab the items which are at the end of their selling life (but again, still perfect and soft and amazing! Any other shop would have these as 'fresh' still), and you can get them at a reduced price... ie a lovely quality white or wholemeal loaf may only be 50p on this shelf, and pack of 4 hot cross buns on the 'yesterday's bake' shelf are £1, so for £1.50 you have an artisan loaf and fresh artisan hot cross buns (which will spoil you so much that normal hot cross buns from the supermarket will just not compare ever again!). I highly recommend them. They have friendly and knowledgeable staff, great variety of products, and you can occasionally find them hosting a stall at food festival markets.

It's a nice tea room, of the bunting and cutesy signs type, with an odd addition of a teddy bear…read moreand toy section. It's hidden down a quiet driveway off a side street, giving it a lovely secret feeling. Service was friendly and prompt, and the food and drink was pleasant, but nothing to write home about. I was a little disappointed that the brown toast I ordered was 2 slices of very cheap brown bread, and not the rustic chunky seeded bread my partner received with his Ploughmans, (which was nice quality, but again quite basic. Very nicely presented though). The tea choices were nice, and although not loose leaf, the apple and cinnamon black tea was very enjoyable. Although we didn't get chance this time, the cakes and other treats on the menu looked lovely, and it'd be nice to visit again to try them. It was also nice that despite us finishing right near their closing time, they didn't make us feel rushed to leave.

Over priced for what you get, it's a very average afternoon tea at a high price (nearly £40 for 3)…read moreThe cafe is stuffed full with trinkets and 2nd hand items for sale. My son accidentally broke a money box, which was at a three year old's height. No signs were up to say that items needed paying for if accidentally broken. I spoke to the owner saying that he had broken something and that it was close to the edge when it fell off. I was very apologetic about the matter and honest. However the owner ( a man) was aggressive and said that I needed to pay the full retail cost for the item before leaving. As he was so intimating and overpowering saying that I couldn't leave without paying the full retail price and wouldn't accept the cost price (which is against consumer law). I was so scared and upset by this, and had to pay nearly £40 for an afternoon tea for one adult and two children. A really wouldn't buy or go to this cafe again.

The sausage rolls are horrible and when i asked for a sausage roll i expect sausage meat in my roll not just pastry! However the mince and steak pies are to die for. The staff are friendly enough especially a girl called Lindsey. The sandwhiches are dry and when i asked for a ham salad i got one slice of ham, one slice of tomato and one slice of lettuce! Everyone should avoid this shop and go across the road to another deli.

TL;DR - Local pies, baked on site. What's not to love?…read more This is a pretty much no frills place - a counter at the back serving pies, and an option to sit in if you want. There are a variety of hot pies on offer - steak, meat and potato, chicken and mushroom... plus some cold whist and pork pies. There's also a small selection of cakes and sweet things too. The pies are baked here on site (Bowen's bakery is in the rear) so you won't get fresher than this. The other big win here is that you can find that particularly local delicacy, the butter pie, which most folks won't have heard of if they didn't grow up within spitting distance of Preston. I love a butter pie, and whilst I've never found one which matches the ones I had in the 1980s, these are a pretty close match. Parking right outside, cheap prices and lovely photos of Chorley in days gone by on the walls. Not suitable for vegetarians or dieters, but plenty of Lancashire fayre to put a smile on your face.
