Should be no problem then. 

You would think Spain with great pork could make a decent snorker.

I really miss Lashfords Royals. 😔

Maybe a bit of a trek from Cabo Roig, but Brown's in El Campello make home made pasties, pies and so on.

On the contrary Pix Elated, I think the Spanish do make decent salchichas. Can’t comment on the pork pies. Here in the U.K. I’d say nothing compares to my very small village bakery pork pies. It all a matter of taste I guess 🤪🥂

I used to buy from Reeves at San Luis, but they ruined their pies by starting to use thick and stodgy pastry.

I now buy mine from Bells Butchers at La Marina. Because I'm so busy at the moment, I order online and collect at a pick-up point. In fact, I did that this morning, and met Sean Bell before he went to do a load of deliveries down your way....

...

All their pies are good, as is their meat.

To see when and where they deliver, look at:

I agree with Jim. Bells sell delicious pies, pork pies, pasties, quiches, all made by McJ's Bakery in Fortuna. The pastry is excellent, as are the fillings. Highly recommended.

I expect there are other outlets that sell them if you're not close to La Marina. Maybe check with the bakery in Fortuna (www.bakerymcjuarez.com)

Spainsh snorkers are dreadful, I've tried them from nearly all the Supermarkets not one comes close to Lashfords.

That's my final word on the subject.

Hi folks, can't believe no one has mentioned Welch's Snack Bar,  Plays Flamenca, Welch's have been making home made pies & pasties for a while now. Home made  long crust& short crust, fresh every day with traditional & diverse fillings, all in house with own pie press etc,,, not a major pie man myself I can thoroughly recommend it,,, lovely people too btw,,

Hope you enjoy them, we certainly did,,,
