How we read reviews →Coburg's 40-year family pie shop. flaky handmade pastry worth crossing Melbourne for
A tiny, warmly-run shop tucked 30 metres inside Walkers Arcade on Sydney Road. Counter-service with a legendary pie-maker (Justin) who greets every customer personally. Unpretentious and joyful. the kind of spot that rewards those who seek it out, with the smell of fresh pastry carrying down the arcade.
Everything handmade daily on site by baker Dave to the same family recipe since 1985; tram no.19 stops at the front of Walkers Arcade; occasional rock-paper-scissors for free pies; generosity with extras (free donuts, tastings); family-sized pies, party pies and party sausage rolls available to order
A quintessential old-school Australian pie shop. 40 years of the same family recipe, hand-pressed pastry, and counter-service warmth that is increasingly rare in Australian suburban baking. The sons of the founder continue the craft.
Outstanding value at country-bakery prices in the inner north. sausage rolls from $4, savoury pies from $6.80, vanilla slice at $4.20. Multiple reviewers describe it as the best-value pie in Melbourne.
