John Gale… Beano Burgers and mushy peas !!!!

Elaine Venables… John, Glad someone has posted this up. I remember this fish & chip shop also the beano burgers. Used to love them wish I knew where these people that ran this had gone, as nobody does those now.

John Gale… I had a beano burger sober once, never again

Tim Moose Bruce… They were made at Buss foods at Ponswood Estate. Also Sheppies, which were minced beef with sauce in a casing of mashed potato and coated with breadcrumbs. And Chickies. Same as a Sheppie but with chicken in white sauce instead of beef. Used to work at the factory as a maintenance engineer from 76 to 88.

Elaine Venables… Yes I remember the sheppies as well. Don’t remember chickies though lol. Are buss foods still on Ponswood Estate do you know & do they still do them. Would be good to know.

Tim Moose Bruce… Sadly no. They got bought out by Anglo Dutch Meats who went under.

Andy Clarke… John, 26p for a beano burger

Geoffrey Head… John, yes lovely Beano Burgers. Eat 2 no charge if i remember right

Lee Elliston… They were made on site by the owner. Bernie. They were as he always said, beefburger,beans,sandwiched in bread, battered and fried. Nothing called sheppies was ever sold there. Soz mate no brake brothers
