| - This place is located west of Yonge and Bloor. Like, in the middle of nowhere. Probably only people that work in the area would know about it, which is a bit unfortunate: I feel that if they had a better location they would get more foot traffic. But then again, given how long it takes to prepare a batch of pies...it'll probably be like uncle tetsu on bay kind of place where you see people waiting for hours to get an item if they actually did get more foot traffic.
There's a distinct orange color theme going on in the store. There's a lot of seating, and overall well-maintained and clean. The washrooms were also nice and clean.
They offer savoury and sweet pies, along with tarts, coffee, and soup. A savoury pie costs $6, which is comparable to other pie places such as Kanga. They have a couple deals that you could take advantage of if you're looking to get multiple pies.
We came in around 6:15 PM and the person ahead of us grabbed the last 3 pies that were left in the warmers. It was literally empty. The baker informed us that another batch of pies were coming up in 15 minutes, so we decided to wait for it. Nothing better than fresh-out-of-the-oven savoury pies, right? They also sell frozen pies that you can take home to bake yourself, so that is an option as well.
The baker explained that it takes 30-40 minutes to prepare a batch of pies, so if you're planning on getting something, you should call in ahead of time so that they will have time to prepare your pies. They also do foodora so you could probably get it delivered.
From the batch of pies, several were already reserved for other customers that had called ahead, so we ended up getting two chicken pot pies, a guiness pie, and a steak and cheese pie. We also grabbed two chocolate banana pies and two apple krisp pies.
I enjoyed the savoury pies. They come with a lot of filling, especially the meat pies had more than a couple spoonfuls of meat which is quite generous. I think they have more filling than the ones from Kanga. The sweet pies were alright; I'm not a fan of chocolate banana, but the apple krisp was pretty good.
One thing I noticed is the pictures show flat square pies, but the ones we ordered were thick, square pies. I'm not sure why they're different.
Overall, it's a nice place. $6 a pie seems a bit steep, but some of the combos make it a bit better. They've also been around for 3 years so they must be doing something right.
