41. Author: red-star-par Date: Tue 8th Jul 2025. 18:43 That`s a cracking deal at Ayr United, 35 quid for a match ticket and 5 pints. When you consider the match ticket is probably more than £20, there`s not many places you can get 5 pints of Moretti for 15 quid Reply
42. Author: Playup_Pompey Date: Wed 9th Jul 2025. 09:22 they are league cup games so imagine £10/£15 match tickets still £5/£4 a pint isnt a bad deal. Reply
43. Author: GJS93 Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 10:58 A spokesperson for Stephens said: "The club has made the decision to partner with a hospitality firm, who will now be responsible for both the corporate hospitality and kiosk concessions at Dunfermline Athletic. "Therefore, Stephens will no longer be involved in operating the kiosks or supplying our products at the stadium. "We’ve greatly valued our relationship with DAFC over the years and sincerely wish them every success moving forward." https://www.dunfermlinepress.com/news/25323480.stephens-bridies-will-no-longer-sold-dunfermline-athletic/ Reply

However, the quality in recent seasons has been becoming poorer and poorer and things had to change. Wonder what the new offerings will be Reply
45. Author: P Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 12:58 Best news of the summer, used to love a Stephen’s bridie at a match but they’ve ripped the P for a while now. Reply
46. Author: kozmasrightfoot Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 13:20 Tremendous news. Only people that enjoy eating absolutely anything can defend Stephens the bakers. The new scran is pretty much guaranteed to be great, its always is at the beginning. Let`s hope the standards remain high and dont slip over time which happens often. Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan. Alternative rock fan. Not a fan of much else. Reply
47. Author: red-star-par Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 16:14 Yep. Bit of a shame that a local company couldn`t be getting a slice of the pie (pun intended) from the catering. Stephens used to offer a good product at the match but the standards have slipped quite badly over the last few seasons, to the point where I wouldn`t even bother getting anything even if I was quite peckish, or had had a few pints. It`s a shame for them, but in my opinion they have let their standards go, and really, ripped this p1ss, so they only have themselves to blame Reply
48. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 17:01 I say this as a fan of Stephen’s and someone who very much believes in helping local businesses, but as has been said, there’s nobody else to blame for this than Stephen’s themselves. The standard of food has been poor for years, as has the range. Go down to other grounds and you’ll find a more interesting range and better quality than we were getting at Dunfermline. Our food choices were still stuck in the 90’s, and the quality was substandard. They wouldn’t sell what they were offering in their shops, why sell it at EEP? Reply

I think part of the problem was that they were selling at EEP the stuff left over from the shops. Reply
50. Author: Par Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 20:29 It is the end of an era but Stephens have been poor at EEP for a while got lazy and complacent, so their fault. I wonder how much they will lose from this. Reply
51. Author: jake89 Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 20:57 Stephens won`t lose much but the staff will. Hopefully they can get jobs for the new outfit. Stephens have a great history in Dunfermline and at EEP but the famous bridies have been a shadow of their former selves for over a decade now. The offering by Stephens was also really quite poor by modern standards. I`d argue some of that was down to the space made available to them though. Reply
52. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 21:27 Food over the years got worse and was barely edible last season, meanwhile the prices inside the stadium for it sky rocketed to ridiculous levels. No love lost for them departing and hopefully the new options are better value for money. Reply

54. Author: buffy Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 22:41 That’s rubbish, Parrot. Where did you get that from? Digs posted this on (another thread re Stephen’s Catering a while back). “The pies sold at east end are made in Rosyth. Fresh, the night before.” I know a couple of people who’ve worked behind the counters in the kiosks who will tell you the same thing. The food is NOT leftovers from any of their shops. ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Reply

Have to say they never tasted fresh, 70% pastry 30% meat and what they were charging was a joke for a sub standard product Reply

58. Author: buffy Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 23:45 That’s down to the ancient warming equipment in the kiosks. The new catering company will hopefully be replacing them. ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Post Edited (Fri 18 Jul 23:46) Reply
59. Author: Never10yairds Date: Fri 18th Jul 2025. 23:48 I’m convinced there was less steak in the bridies Stephen’s sold at East end compared to the ones they sell in my local branch. Anyone else think this? Reply
