The Vegan Skinhead - Handcrafted Small Batch Vegan Foods

I produce plant based pies and 'meats' posted to any UK address. All my products are made by hand with high quality ingredients and contain no animal or GM ingredients or other ‘nasties’. I make everything myself in small volumes, and because of this there may be a wait until your order can be dispatched - but it's worth it! I also offer event catering and attend markets in Scotland - keep an eye on my Facebook page for up-to-date info

Handcrafted Small Batch Vegan Foods Most of my products are made of seitan, or 'wheat meat'. I use special blends of herbs and spices to produce the appropriate meaty flavour, proving that a vegan diet can be delicious and satisfying.

 The lamb curry pies are absolutely delicious. Steak pies too. These types are favourites so far Morag, 17 April 2019 ​ Amazing pies! You don't have to be a vegan to enjoy vegan food, would highly recommend. Clyde, 16 April 2019Had a “bacon “ sandwich and it was beautiful waaaay better than any of the frozen, mass produced ones. Going to try it with the “pastrami” on Saturday in a full breakfast, already thinking about it , had to have a sneak preview first though 🙂🙂 Chris, 21 August 2020 Just had the vegan bacon slices with our weekend full English breakfast, absolutely delicious. Will definitely be getting more. 👍 Mick, 9 May 2020 ​ I’ve just finished the four pies I bought and they were all amazing! (Honest - I didn’t eat them all at once😂) I’m going to have to buy more next time and stock up the freezer! Haggis mince and tatties was my favourite! Lindsay, 18 December 2019 ​ Thank you for the fantastic pies - great pastry and tasty filling Nicola, 25 March 2020 Amazing food would definitely recommend. The flavour and texture of the steaks were spot-on and so easy to cook! Also loving the crispy bacon rashers, a lovely start to the day, very filling. Tanya, 16 February 2020 

 We have just finished the great selection we ordered from The Vegan Skinhead. First up were the cheese and onion pasties, these were lovely, a good size with a really tasty and plentiful filling. We got 3 kinds of pie and our front runner is still the apple topped one - but we do have some varieties still to try! The bacon slices were substantial and tasty and made our regular weekend all day breakfast even better. We also had the steaks, these were delicious with a bit of mash, garden peas and fried onions. Sorry no photos, the food was too nice to have it hanging about on the plate long enough to take them!! 😋👍 Lisa, 18 May 2020 ​Recently ordered some of the pies, and man were they good! Would definitely order from again. Great communication and delivery as well. Thank you! Hâf, February 2021 Another delivery of vegan pies and also bacon, taste amazing as usual. Quick and no messing about. Highly recommended Alan, 20 February 2020 ​ OMG those pies! Love the pastry and lots of great fillings. I always look out for when the Vegan Skinhead comes to town Hannah, 9 February 2020 ​ Really nice cheese and onion roll and “steak” and chestnut pies. Delicious fillings! Will look forward to seeing you guys again soon! Laura, 17 December 2019 ​ Picked up 5 pies today - 2 of steak, cranberry & pork, Burns supper, and chilli pie. Only had the steak so far. Heated them up in the oven for 15 mins - stayed moist and pastry didn't burn. We loved them. Didn't need gravy as they were already so moist. Looking forward to trying the rest.

About image
Scooters, punk rock and vegan cooking..........
As a long-time vegan, I like creating and cooking vegan foods. I enjoy the challenge of using plant ingredients to try and create replacements for traditional animal meats. I have always loved cooking, both at home and in the catering industry where I held a number of positions in professional kitchens.
I started making non-meat pies over 30 years ago, with my first commercial food sales (of vegan bacon butties) from the front of my tent at the Cramond Island Punks Picnic in 1990. The bacon went down well and sold out rapidly. I made my first butcher-style pork pie, with meaty chunks, jelly and hot water pastry in 2012. Since then, I've invented and refined many new varieties of meat-style pies and continue to develop new recipes.
In 2018, I registered with my local Environmental Health department and passed my first food hygiene inspection. I first sold my pies on my punk music market stall, they sold so well that I decided to develop the food business further. In May 2019 I began to attend Farmers' Markets and sold out on every occasion, and the business has grown exponentially, now I send my products all over the country and deliver locally.
I live in beautiful Moray, in the north of Scotland with my family which includes a menagerie of rescue animals that keep me busy and entertained.
My other interests include the skinhead and punk subcultures, tattooing, scooters and, of course, wonderful Oi! music.
I’m glad that people other than friends and family can now enjoy my food, and have been very happy to supply some of my favourite punk bands with vegan pies. I’m also happy that people enjoy reading about my food and eating it as much as I enjoy making it.
