Just been to Tiger Town to get coffee and decided to try the Paua Pie. I'm normally a traditionalist with my pie choices, mince is my go to. OMG the paua pie was delicious, so creamy and tender and the pastry was perfect. Highly recommend this pie, and I'm sure any flavour would not disappoint. What a local treasure Tiger Town is.
It's harder and harder to find really quality handmade pies in New Plymouth, but this is the real deal. No mouthful of jelly here. The pies are filled with delicious, savoury stews and big pieces of meat (aside from mince, that is). The cabinet is filled with about sixteen different kinds of pies, from standard favorites like mince & cheese to interesting variations like steak, mushroom and blue cheese, lamb and mint sauce, and mussel seafood chowder. The owner Pip is really dedicated to her work, and it shows. Please support this business- there aren't that many real pie shops left and we need to support the ones that are doing the real work of keeping this part of Kiwi food culture alive.
Best pies in New Zealand!!! Really pleasant surprise. We visited the Paritutu rock and wanted to get something for the road. We couldn’t start driving until the pies were finished 😆 soooo good!! With a lot of filling, quality ingredients and great mix of flavors. None if the liquid, gelatinous filling that other pies have. I had the amazing Eggs Benedict pie (has gotten reviews specially for it) and my husband had the Lamb one. We were so happy we will definitely come back!
