There are 2 that I know of. The best one I think, is in Greenwich and I have attached a link for you. But there is another great one if you are north of the river and that is Clarke's in Exmouth market near the Angel. This one is far less touristy and set in a loving street which has great food markets on a Friday and Saturday.
Both of them have tons of charm and are the real thing. I'd never had pie and mash before moving to London but I feel in love with these places. Great people watching too.

I haven't been to London in years but I used to go to a Pie and Mash shop in East Ham High Street, it was very good.

I'm glad that 'useless' has called it right. Don't mess about on the wrong side of the river. Come to the Roman or Bethnal Green, or even Crisp Street for 'proper' nosh. Maureen's in Crisp Street still does a wicked boiled beef and carrots, all freshly made on the premises. Being an oldie I can still remember the cubicals with the bench seats and cast iron and marble tables, and the stewed and jellied eels.

Goddard's, but not the one in Greenwich high street. The better one is in Deptford High Street. They only do meat pie (don't even ask about any other kind, they get all evil eyed) and don;t expect anything other than gravy or liquor on your mash. Also, don;t expect and deserts. You can have tea or soft drinks.... that's it. Simple, to the point, no messing about, and the pies are amazing. None of that sour pastry that you get in Goddard's in Greenwich (they always make too much and use it the next day, so it goes stale).

Definitely Walthamstow Market E17, Proper old fashioned shop, fantastic tiling and furniture, self service, tea or soft drinks only, still selling eels and mash (not live ones outside the shop tho' like when I was a kid!) Everything pie and mash should be.

Harrington's at Selkirk Road, Tooting. Then go to The Selkirk Pub,
now called The Frog and Firkin or something, for a real good Saturday all-day session
