Firstly, I've never eaten anything under cooked or raw at the Etihad. :-)

I've eaten a few steak pies, they've always been piping hot, and have tasted nice.

I've done hospitality on 2 occasions on freebies. The food was decent enough. Can't remember what I had.

Overall I can't fault or complain about the food at the Etihad.(bar the prices)

Food rating 4.

I haven't eaten anything inside the stadium for a few years. However, the Northern Soul Grilled Cheese and Pancho's Burritos stands outside the ground are top notch, and serve the same quality food as their cafés in town (albeit at a higher price).

Food rating for both: 5.
 
I have 1 maybe 2 at the most pies each season depending on KO time.

They're reasonable but the hot drinks and beers pull the scores down.

Food: 4.5 lack of brown/ketchup at times
Hot Drinks: 2 wrong tops jammed on, powdered crap not stirred properly
Beer: 2 wouldn't go in a pub more than once that did the quality of beer we sell.
 
The pies are actually alright and usually properly cooked and hot so can’t really complain, but they are such a rip off.

I’ve never eaten any of the other food so can’t comment on it.
 
I usually have a steak pie at the match which is pretty good. Beer is indifferent some of the stall food outside is OK but I don't have it very often.
 
The cheese and onion pie is quite tasty, the.pastry is pretty hard though which let's it down. Would give it a 4.
The chips are also good. Give them a 4.5
 
The chicken wraps are nice and well priced, the pies are pretty good. As well, done legends lounge once and the food was very good
4.5 from me

Totally agree. Both decent and much better quality than inside the stadium (non corporate)

And Dan, the boss of Northern Soul Grilled Cheese, always greets me like a long lost relative. Not sure what I've done to earn that, apart from being a regular customer!
 
I occasionally have a pie (chicken balti) which are ok but usually overcooked with almost burnt pastry. I had a Bovril once but it was so salty it was undrinkable. I usually have a London Pride which is so much better than Asahi. With the season card discount I don’t find the prices to bad and certainly a lot cheaper than you’ll pay at other grounds. 3/5 from me. I agree with a previous poster that they should provide brown sauce and ketchup
 
Quality for a stadium good 4.5/5
Cost compared to other stadiums /events is okay,compared to high street but for what it is ie in a stadium 4 /5
 
As a vegetarian the choice is poor. A few years ago they did a chips and vegan chilli - which was nice and filling and reasonably priced. But that was removed from menu and became Nachos and cheese sauce- dreadful. This year is a wrap with a pretend meat product - had it once and left an awful taste that I couldn't get rid off.

On the whole I prefer chips and peas from Maine Road Cafe - tasty, reasonably priced and supporting local business.
 
Pies are ok we’ve had better probably a few seasons ago we’re really good, chips are good not had the other stuff but it looks good The issue I have is the pies fall to bits and so difficult to eat Cornish pasties were developed to allow the miners to eat with dirty hands we need a pie technician to develop a pie that’s easy to eat without one of those PC wooded forks I rate 4
