Re: Stadium food
At the stadium, the pie and mash is fine, probably the best of a bad bunch.
Elsewhere better if you have time.

Re: Stadium food
Last time I had a hot dog it had mutiple misc chewy things in it. Burgers are bland and boiled. Haven’t tried the pie and mash.
Really weak area the club just don’t seem interested in improving. Weird considering Nigel’s background is the food and drink industry

Re: Stadium food
Not sure I’d trust the grub at the ground Ron
If you chance it, don’t forget to pick up a copy of Panda in case it doesn’t agree with your gut and you get caught short.

Re: Stadium food
Food at the ground is appalling.
Some good suggestions on this thread already - 5 lads is excellent value and very quick service.

Re: Stadium food
Depends where you sit....I'm in the South Stand mainly and don't eat in the ground, but when I have gone in the West Stand, the chilli cheese dogs are my go to food. I cannot resist them as they taste so good!

Re: Stadium food
As an East Ender Ron you will enjoy the pie & mash. Don't think you are a Five Guys Burger person. The Turkish(Anatolia) and Italian (figo) places are nice but dearer

Re: Stadium food
The food options around the ground have made a quantum leap in quality in recent years. In the ground it's as pony as it always was.
Pie & Mash indeed best of a bad bunch, and that's pretty average. No idea why some people make a big thing of it.

Re: Stadium food
We often use The Lion and Key Ron, it’s an excellent pub / restaurant/ hotel and much cheaper than Figo’s which tends to be overcrowded on match days.
Don’t often eat in the ground but might chance the Pie and Mash if I really had to.

Re: Stadium food
I quite like the pie and mash, but I'm a simple soul with simple taste.
Wouldn't really eat in many of the places around the ground. Anatolia used to be ok but last time I walked past it was £12 for a wrap of about 6 chunks of meat. Usually have a meal deal at Sainsbury's or a maybe something to eat with a beer in Loughton if I park up that way

Re: Stadium food
Opted for the pie n mash in the end , not great , the pie was difficult to cut up with the wooden utensils supplied and the hard crust on the pies , also it could have been hotter as it was only lukewarm , don't think I'll bother with that again

Re: Stadium food
I also had the pie and mash for the first time. I agree with you Ron. The crust was a bit difficult to deal with given the wooden utensils but my pie was pretty hot and quite tasty so might go with that option again. Quite a few people near where I sit seemed to be giving it a go.
