Reviews
I am so glad that MacEwans came under new ownership a couple of years ago or so, and Niall stepped in to manage the shop. He's a good bloke, friendly with the customers, and knows his stuff! Their traditional Scottish and British fare is great - sausages, meat pies, scotch eggs, bridies, pasties, black and white puddings. Their bangers are the best in the city, period, and MacEwans is the ONLY place to go for your haggis! Don't mind the older, negative reviews. The business has been around for a long time, and unfortunately the guy that the original owners sold to several years ago put out some sub-par product, and had abysmal customer service skills. Since it changed hands again, Niall was brought on board and has done a great job of bringing the product to new heights, and rebuilding customer relations.
Just a heads up. This store appears to be closed. Drove across town for scotch eggs today. Arrived to find it closed up, empty and a for lease sign in the door. Neighbour next door says MacEwans is closed and no idea if someone will take it over or not. No mention that they are not operating on either the website or Facebook. Bummer.
Love their black pudding and would drive from anywhere to get it! Can't wait for them to re-open. I think their Facebook page need to be updated with their grand reopening date....it has some outdated information on it.
Picked up black pudding yesterday, tried it this morning, loved it. Messaged my mother to break the news Ive no reason to ever fly home again because Ive found the perfect black pudding .haven't heard back from her . Perfect blend of spices in it nicely sliced not too thin not too thick. Knocks the socks off anything like Denny's or galtees puddings from home.
Since the new guy took over a big improvement. It is now a pleasure to go shop here. Nial is very sociable you are made to feel welcome. The scotch eggs sausage rolls pork pies proper back bacon sausages pies all a great taste of Britain. For those people who knew the old owner please give the new guy a chance. It's a whole different experience .
Every time we go there, I always pick up bangers for myself and some to bring to my parents. They’re delicious! Niall is an awesome, friendly guy, great at his job! I recommend this store to everyone whenever it comes up. Absolutely delicious!
I popped into this place after driving by it a few times on Elbow Drive. I got some sausage rolls and they are fantastic just scarfing them down. I liked the product selection and the service was great. Had a laugh with the chap with the Irish/Welsh accent ha!. I'll be back soon. Side note regarding some of the negative reviews from the "Karens" of the world giving 1/5 ratings: I think all those issues could have been resolved with a calm conversation. No small business willingly wants to damage its own reputation.
*Update* Sept, 2013 5/5 Tried a new batch of breakfast sausages. They are now tasty and the meat has been minced more. The size of sausages are now longer and a bit bigger. Very pleased with the recent batch and will continue to enjoy them once again. These are breakfast sausages fit for an English breakfast. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aug, 2013 3/5 I used to love this place when it was owned by the Scottish people. The new owners have the same food but the recipes are changing. The breakfast sausages chipolatas have changed. They are more coarse and less tasty. More typical of a Canadian meat sausage. I will try again and update my review if it gets better. The black pudding is the same and I love it. Pies are made well and have good pieces of meat, but are pretty tasteless. Perhaps because they are not using flavor enhancers which is good. Taste like a pie a relative would make. I will go again and try there products to see if the blandness is due to the new owners getting used to the recipes.
Their haggis is delicious, I eat it just about every day for breakfast. Tried the new haggis recipe with lamb as well and it is the closest I have found to the haggis in Scotland. The new shop owner is really lovely. Highly recommend!
I don't usually write reviews but this needed to be heard. I have been shopping here for awhile now being from Shropshire it tastes of home. Ever since the young Irish guy took over things have really improved. Haggis, Black pudding, Pork Sausages are fantastic but i was in during the week and the Irish guy was serving an elderly gentleman. The old man had gathered all his bits and was than asked "if he was stuck for anything else" and he replyed, "toilet roll" but he didn't want to go to the co-op" the Irish bloke proceeded to explain to him that he had ordered extra things like that in case anyone was stuck. I am very proud to be a customer of a shop that sells great produce and has a genuine concern for its customers and community to help anyone and everyone. Thank you
