Pie and mash shop in south London to close after being run by same family for 116 years
Briefly

"As you can imagine it's not been an easy decision for myself and the family to come to. It has been very upsetting when it’s been in the family 116 years, but unfortunately as a family we’ve decided we need to move forward, so unfortunately the property is up for sale and once it has sold we will be closing our doors. But until we have sold we are still open and selling hot pie and mash for all our beloved customers to enjoy."
"That is incredibly upsetting news, our family have always visited your pie and mash shop, it was my nan's favourite meal! I even trek all the way down from Birmingham now to have a delicious pie and mash!"
"Campaigners want pie and mash to have Traditional Speciality Guaranteed status. The dish, complete with jellied eels and liquor parsley sauce, was popularised in the eastern docklands area of the capital during the Victorian era."
