"I love pie and mash and even though I wasn't especially hungry I'd read about Champs and couldn't leave without giving it a try. It isn't the biggest establishment so at bust times it could prove difficult to find seating but fortunately one of the smaller tables outside was free. Very friendly service and delicious (Manze's) pies, mash & liquor. It really was delicious, hopefully next time I visit I'll be a little hungrier and I'll have two wonderful pies."

"Sarah greeted me with a smile,service was great and the most special part of my experience in this wonderful place was the PIE & MASH!!!,single pie single mash and single liqueur was the order of the day due to a roast later in the day,otherwise it would have been triple pie ,double mash and liqueur. The whole experience of eating this lovely pie and mash flooded my senses of years gone by!!!,the only draw back is having to come to Poole from Christchurch, please open a branch in Christchurch!!!10 out of 10."

"I found this pie and mash shop on the off chance and I am so glad I did! The pies were amazing along with the mash and liquor. Proper pie and mash shop. The man that owned the shops was warm and friendly and we had a nice chat! So welcoming. Safe to say if I ever do come back to Poole I will be returning. I even took pies and liquor home to freeze for my family back in London."
