Pieminister

Duck into Duncan Street and you'll find yourself in a proper working bakery where the smell of butter and pastry hits you immediately. Pieminister does exactly what it says on the tin: brilliant pies, made with actual thought about flavour and ingredients. You're looking at everything from classic steak and ale to seasonal veg numbers, plus sweet pies that genuinely justify the calories. The place has that unpretentious, slightly chaotic energy of somewhere that's actually busy because people rate it—stools crammed by the counter, folks grabbing boxes to take home, locals who know exactly what they want. It's the kind of spot where you can grab lunch for under a tenner and actually feel sorted.
