Ivor Dewdney Pasties

Perfect pasty everytime! I took a load to a meeting in bournmouth and everyone loved them! Best pasties ever made! Full of flavour! HUGE! well priced and enjoyed by all ages!

They say the pasty filling is mixed out back of the shop in a squeaky clean concrete mixer. Who knows? But the product is basic, hot, local, consistent and not bad value.

They are THE BEST. I was brought up on them as a kid in Plymouth and whenever I go to watch Argyle we all have a GIANT! Absolutely wonderful

I think Oggy Oggy pasties are lovely, but before them the reigning champions were defiantely Ivor Dewdneys. Just seeing the bags makes my mouth water.
They still do a lovely pasty to this day, albeit a bit flat, they also do lovely pizza breads and a nice selection of fillings for baguettes.
If you want something filling then the large pasty will do just that it is massive.
The drinks prices are quite high, but there is a newsagents next door so you could always stop there but to be honest the prices are similar. I think the prices are now the norm for eating establishments.
Staff are always friendly and have been there a long time so are very loyal to there jobs and there employee which is nice.
Long ago there would have been queues but being at the bottom of the city means it is rarely busy now.
The external décor is good now too since they tarted it up, it looks very fresh.

Ivor Dewneys reputation speaks for itself if you go along there on a weekend. The queues are large but fast moving and you will get served eventually. This place makes one of the best traditional pasties in town and you’ll be able to get a small, medium, large or giant pasty size. They are all made from scratch in the back of the shop and there is always a nice smell emanating from there. This is definitely worth trying if you are a fan of the steak pasty. But if you fancy a different flavour pasty or a veggy option then you may want to pop down the road and try an oggy oggy.

Although many would disagree, Ivor Dewdney pasty shops just arent a patch on Oggie Oggie. Distinct lack of choice and just not as nice an ambience as friary mill or oggie. Feels more like a butchers than a bakery. Still, if youre hungry it is the place to go because the pasties are HUGE.

The most well known local pastie company has a pretty ugly interior, but the pasties are good. Types/​sizes and prices are clearly displayed and you’re made welcome by the staff. There is no better pastie to buy, the Dewdney family have it sussed!
One downside is the ridiculously high price of cans of drink and other ‘extras’. Sadly, this seems to be the norm for the city centre, as specialist shops always add a huge mark-​up to the other things they sell. I sometimes think they should just up the price of the pasties if they can’t make enough money without charging so much for the extras.
