Blake's Shepherds Pie!!! The pro's and cons. I give them credit for some things. It's made from Beef raised without antibiotics,all natural ingredients, gluten free.However to me it is very small. Also this is made with corn, generally as I recall it was made with peas. I think there's actually more food content in various pot pies. Shepherds Pie originated somewhere between England, Ireland and Scotland a few hundred years ago. There are a few different versions of it. Some is made with lamb, some beef,and I've also heard pork. My family originated in England. The Shepherds Pie I had through the years was made with beef, peas and mashed potatoes on top. Simmer the beef, then warm the peas in hot water slightly, whipped mash potatoes on top, then bake. It's one of my all time favorite dishes. I've been known to get the iron skillet out once and awhile and put on a kitchen performance, LOL. Blake's was tasty, but small, non-filling. read more

Blake's All Natural Foods - It's tasty, but very small. - Specialty Food Near Me - Concord, New Hampshire

I'm a bit of a pot pie snob, this is without a doubt the worst I've ever had, a tiny little bowl of veggies with a nasty gravy, and only pie crust was a cap on top, I'm sorry but that is not a pie, the veggies and gravy should be enveloped in an entire pie crust. The price of $5.49 for a tiny crappy little 8 oz bowl of not a pie. read more

This was perhaps the WORST frozen entree/meal I have ever tried. It was flavorless, it was dry, it has no redeeming value. I tried adding liquid, I tried adding fat (as in BUTTER), and no help. I ended up throwing it out, and eating dry cereal. It had more flavor, and more moisture. Perhaps I should have at least eaten the packaging! read more

Review of a Blake's 8 oz chicken pot pie...only had 1 piece of chicken that had a weird black spot. It was dried out because all of the sauce boiled out. Expensive...so I expect better. First two I had were a bit better. Quality control is lacking. read more

See all

This brand was sold to Conagra a few years ago. As a result, the quality has really diminished. Don't waste your money on this brand. It's on par with Banquet; another trash product from Conagra. read more

Awful. Really not good. Was very dry, no taste and not worth the money. Really, I was very disappointed. There are so many low calorie frozen foods that are so much better. read more

3/24/20 I have had Shepard's pie on my mind for three weeks now. Ever since the idea of one of my characters loving the pies, I have been craving it. Now that I have finished one of Blake's Shepard's Pie, I can say it was good, but not the best. Frozen is never as good as having it at an Irish Pub. The best one I have eaten was at the Irish Inn.(Bethesda Maryland Glen Echo) Still, for the way I was feeling, Blake's pie hit the spot. I am only sorry it did not last very long. A bigger pie would have been nice, but I will control my desire for more. There are three more pies and I will have to make them last until the end of Friday. Great work on the Shepard's Pie Lucy Blake. Now we can all have more...next time with a little blue cheese.:) read more

Blake's All Natural Foods - 3/24/20 Tonight is Blake's Shepard's Pie with a little cheese and bacon. Yum yum. - Specialty Food Near Me - Concord, New Hampshire

I bought 2 frozen dinners thinking they'd be better than other brands! Wrong! I tried the meatloaf and the chicken! Both nearly inedible. Live and learn I guess. read more

Homestyle meatloaf with gravy roasted potatoes and corn. Gravy very good and tasty. Roasted potatoes very good quality and taste. Corn was dry and a little chewy. Meatloaf was very bland, and a little tough, nothing like homestyle. However I will try a of their other meals out of curiosity. read more

Turkey Shepard's pie delish. I used to cook all my meals but over the last 4 years I haven't cooked much and trying to find foods that are made with good ingredients and healthy I give Blake's 5 stars! read more

i got the shepherd's pie and it was the worst I've ever had. it was 90% corn, the meat didnt have any gravy and looked like cat food. Also 0 cheese. These ingredients were nowhere near 'natural'. read more

This is one of the BEST Chicken Pot-Pie I have ever had! Where have these baking Gods been all my life? Don't get me wrong, now I can make a good chicken pot-pie. But after having Blake's I might not ever need to make another one. There I was at the store... shopping hungry, when I was hit with a comfort food craving. After the hellish day that I endured, I already knew I wasn't about to go home and chef it up! So naturally I went searching the frozen food section to find a chicken pot-pie to throw in the oven when I got home. The regulars (Swanson, Callender & Banquet) were there in bulk and I just looked right past them when I spotted Blake's. Now I don't know if it was their box, my hope for a meal-win or me just not wanting to buy one of "the regulars" then have to add a bunch of spices to it to make it taste better. So I buy the Blake's pie and figure "what the heck...If it tastes like a jail house kitchen creation I'm sure the garbage can won't reject it". Obviously my expectations weren't too high. When I say the smell of this pie took over my house in the best way, I mean it! I began to look around for one of my Grandmother's because there was no way a frozen pie could smell that good! Boy...was I wrong. Blake's Chicken Pot-Pie has the most flaky crust and the filling is so flavorful. I was pleasantly surprised by how great this pie was. I'm officially hooked on them and would recommend them to anyone. read more

Tried a frozen Shepherds pie. Not tasty at all, very bland, not what I was hoping for

Super high quality (and a bit pricey) frozen meals like Mac 'n cheese (alone or with chicken or with veggies) and flaky caloric pot pies. I buy the Mac 'n cheese at Whole foods and take it to work for lunch. So delicious - but as I said - expensive compared to other brands (but it is made with all good stuff!). Update: They have Blake's on SALE at Whole Foods during July 2011 - so rush over there and try the Mac 'n Cheese with Chicken & Brocolli - it's Soooooo delicious! YUM! read more

I purchased a Turkey Shepherds Pie at Publix. I didn't mind paying a premium price because I eat heat and eats a lot for my lunch at work and enjoy decent food. If I could give this meal no stars I would. It was awful! It was very bland and the turkey (that looked like ground beef) was crunchy as were several of the peas. The directions said to cook it between 5 and 6 minutes in the microwave. I only cooked 5 minutes so it wasn't a matter of being over cooked and burnt. I will never purchase this product again. Maybe they have other good meals but BEWARE... this one is awful! read more

I have had a lot of bad luck finding good gluten free foods. I tried their chicken pot pie for the first time and loved it !!! now I just need to find out where to get other products of theirs. this was the only one I found c.m. montana read more

Blake's chicken Pot Pie First time I tried this pie because it has organic veg. and crust. The pie had 2 small pieces of chicken and mostly peas with a small amount of carrots. Gravy was just so so. Wouldn't buy it again. Usually buy Willow Tree. A lot better! read more

I just purchased my first Blake's Chicken Pot Pie and I absolutely loved it. I was impressed by the quality and the quantity of delicious chicken breast that was in the pie. The vegetables (carrots and peas) were wonderful too. It was the perfect amount and the chicken pot pie tasted homemade. I am trying the Shepherd's Pie tonight. read more

Blake's Chicken Pot Pie This is the most disgusting pie I think I have ever eaten. The gravy is weak as water and it smells watery as soon as you cut into the pie. The whole pie tastes bland. Even dousing salt and freshly ground black pepper onto it doesn't help. I must have eaten a very different product to the ones given such rave reviews. Never again. Lesson learned. Should have stuck with Amy's. read more

Blake's Shepherd Pie is bland, tasteless, completely unappetizing, and way overpriced.

The best. I mean tasty to.the last pea and of crunchy piece.of crust. I wish to.tell the Blake family if they could expand.their line and offer a.larger size. Let's say a pie.for.3. I swear I'd pop.in oven and eat it all myself read more

If I could give it no stars, I would. So many good reviews here, it makes me wonder what else these people would eat that is tasteless, dry and tiny. Guess tiny is ok because I could not eat it all and gave it to my dog. read more

This is the worst frozen dinner I have ever eaten--and, as a recent widow, I eat a lot of frozen dinners. The meat was ground up almost like baby food. And was completely unseasoned. Totally unappetizing. I would give it no stars if that were a choice. And I'm going to tell my Stop and Shop they should not carry it. read more

The Shepherd's Pie is not worth the cost of $5.plus. It is dry and mostly potatoes. The beef has no sauce and is very dry and not much of it. You feel like all you are eating is mashed potatoes with corn. What a disappointment. I would not recommend buying this product to anyone. Don't waste your money. read more

I LOVE this company! Why? Because they sell GOOD tasting food at lower sodium levels! With high blood pressure the first thing I look at is the sodium content! Most food companies are close to 1000 mg! Talking frozen food here. As an aside what I do not understand is how "organic" soup contains ridiculous amounts of sodium? read more

Love this company! It's also great that most of the ingredients they use aren't crap! The only thing that really is the soybean oil, but oh well. Oh also the palm oil they use is sustainable. Blake's All Natural Foods seems to be harder to find these days. Blake's claims they're product is at the whole foods near me, though I've only seen it in Target. I do wanna find the organic version though. I haven't checked if my Albertson's has Blake's. I usually get their chicken pot pie and it's awesome! I've recently gotten their Mac & Cheese and Chicken and Dumplings, so I need to try those. read more

I must say, I'm thrilled by the incredible honor code of this company! Not only is their food amazing, yet they accepted & honored MY mistake (I bought a not so great brand cleverly located nearby in the frozen food section at WholeFoods market, using the exact dye markers on the label). I was too tired too notice, until I, & my Dog Eats Everything couldn't eat it. They make excellent food & mean what they say concerning quality & customer satisfaction! STRONGLY recommended!!! Especially their Shepard's Pie! read more

We just discovered their chicken pot pie and shepherd's pie and REALLY love them. I hate cooking so am thrilled to find REALLY good frozen food. The chicken pot pie has a great top crust, flaky but just deliciously slightly crunchy around the edge, and no bottom crust, which means there is a LOT of good food in there--the veggies look and taste fresh, and the size of the chicken pieces will make your eyes bug out! I couldn't believe it. There's even enough chicken in it that we can share with our cats and no one feels deprived!! Great balance between veggies, chicken, gravy, and crust. We are going to be eating this a lot, I'm sure. It's even better than the homemade chicken pot pie I used to make many years ago. We also like the shepherd's pie. Great flavor, great balance of meat and corn and mashed potato. Just yum. read more

I just discovered their frozen dinners. I usually don't eat processed meals but was so impressed with both the ingredients they use and their taste. Really good. I just found the Shepherds Pie in Publix (Florida supermarket chain) and will try their other meals. It's wonderful that more organic foods are making their way into the frozen food cases! read more

I discovered Blake's a month or so ago, and I've really become a huge fan. I've tried everything offered at my local Publix, and I just can't believe how delicious these meals are. The seasonings are perfect...none of that 'off-taste' that frozen meals usually have. The ground beef in the Shepherd's Pie is high quality and plentiful. The chicken in the Marsala and the Dumplings and the PotPie has a fresh and 'real' texture. The vegetables taste just-picked. Amazing! If I didn't know better, I'd think my Grandmother is cooking in your kitchen. Keep up the good work. read more

Worst pot pie I have ever had. Filling was not filling, no flavor, crust bland. waste of money.

I was not impressed with their chicken pot pie. It is no better than banquet pies, and a lot more expensive. Also there was not much flavor to it. And there was not much chicken--one larger piece and two small pieces. read more

The shepards pie was terrible hamburger tasted bland and cheap. It looked nothing like the photo on the box. DO NOT BUY.

Purchased a turkey pot pie, it was HORRIBLE. Dry, flavorless, no gravy had 4 pieces of dry turkey and cost $1.00 more than my normal brand. Put it in the garbage. I'll never purchase another one of their products. Waste of $3.79. Very disappointing. read more

I purchased your company's mac and cheese today. Not a big fan at all. The sauce was watery, bitter and would not cling to the pasta no matter how much I stirred it. Did you start the sauce with a base (bechamel) or did you just make a milk slurry and add cheese. Anyway, the dish was unappealing and extremely overpriced for what you got. I definitely would not purchase this product again and will encourage my friends and family not to purchase this product. read more

This is the best frozen Mac & Cheese I've ever had!!!! Wish it came in a bigger serving. Absolutely AWESOME!!!!!!! Worth every penny. (I don't check prices anyway.) read more

I love Blake's products. I have tried the Shepherd's pie, which I love and now is in my weekly shopping trip, so now I just tried the turkey pot pie and I must say it is great! I love the portions, for being a single person, but what I love the most is that it is all natural. I expect to pay more for natural, so that is not a problem. I do hope that they will expand their line to some new stuff. read more

Best frozen entree I've ever had, makes me wonder why all the other can't be better. I had the shepherd's pie, can't wait to try the others.

Very tasteless, to many peas, very watery not think gravy like a pot pie should be and crust was only on top and tasted more like phyllo dough vs pie dough. Would not buy again. read more

Regarding Blake's 8 oz. Chicken Pot Pie, the flavor was delicious and the quality of ingredients seemed high. However, there was almost nothing in the pot pie...certainly not enough for a light eater's lunch. There was less than 1 ounce of chicken, 25 peas, less than 1 small red potato (3 pieces, each one appearing to be 1/4 of a tiny potato), less than the equivalent of 1 baby carrot. I called the company and was told that ingredients are weighed during assembly and that there should be 1.6 ounces of chicken. I don't know how much of the other ingredients there was to be, but this pot pie would just about serve a small pre-school aged child. read more
