D. Petch Butchers - Middlesbrough

Amazing pies, all freshly made and filled to the brim with delicious ingredients. You can choose from a variety of options, sourced from a local butcher.

The best pork pies ever. This is an outstanding butcher and the highlight is their pork pies. They are packed with top quality meat and, if you warm them, there is very little fat running off. Quite extraordinarily good and so far from supermarket mass produced stuff that you query if they are the same thing. Eat one and die happy, you will have eaten the best!

The choice is great at Petch's but my money is on the chicken mushroom it's divine! Lovely lady on the counter also gave me bones to make my own stock for free! Don't know why this is listed by TripAdvisor as a restaurant it isn't though they'd make a bomb if they opened one and don't know why it's listed as the High Street in Middlesbrough because it isn't there, it's in Great Ayton and as far as I know, Middlesbrough doesn't have a High Street!

The pork apple pies and fruit scones at this restaurant are absolutely delicious. They are light and flavorful. However, I did encounter a slight issue with the staff being too busy chatting amongst themselves, which made it a bit awkward to place my order. That being said, the freshly baked goods are excellent.

We ordered pork pies on Saturday, December 28th at 10:30 am. Unfortunately, the pie was cold and the contents were almost inedible. We also tried a corned beef slice, which was also cold with overdone pastry. We had high expectations for this place, but were disappointed with our experience.
