Served at gatherings and pubs worldwide, shepherd’s pie is a dish born from resourcefulness – evolving leftover roasted meats into comfort food that brings people together.

We keep the spirit of the classic but reshape it into a party-ready crispy platter:  golden mashed potato bites, savoury minced filling and all the cosy flavours of a pie, made for snacking and sharing!
