    People are vainer and want to watch their waistlines these days I suppose. We do support our local traditional pie shop but it's a once a month thing, it's the calories see?
    I fear all the people who like eel pie and mash have long since moved from Deptford to places like Basildon and Saahfend

    I'd rather have pie, mash, and liquor < or maybe hot eels> than avocado quiche and chia seed with Goji berry.

  • 'Hipsters killed my traditional pie and mash shop after 128 years'

    Walking up to A.J. Goddard pie and mash shop, it’s clear that you’re entering a traditional sort of place. The St George’s Cross flies proudly from the shop front in Deptford, south-east London, and the word ‘traditional’ is emblazoned in large white letters onto the windows (in case you were in any doubt).

    Inside, walls are adorned with old photographs of the cafe’s historic clientele, including local train and dockyard workers.

    According to locals, “old-timer” Goddard has served as a bastion of traditional English cuisine since it opened in 1890, dishing out pie and mash to Deptford’s locals for just £3.50.
