Lovely coffee, big selection of pastries and breads, ready made sandwiches and pies. Went here a few times during our stay for coffee and sweet treats. Fruit danish and choc croissant recommended! Yum.
Delicious pies. Great choices. A little pricey, but the best pies I've tasted and I love my pies. I'm so fussy when it comes to them, I live in Wellington. I would travel to Wanaka just for their pies. I was happy to compliment the girl behind the counter and say keep up the great work. Thank you very much to the staff of Doughbin for your lovely food. I feel liked i made that girls day, as i know its not often you get verbal compliments in the food industry, its nice to know that your doing a great job once in a while and i love praising good, hard work. Best pies I've tasted so far. Keep it up!
An absolute must for hikers and early risers in Wanaka. The store offers freshly baked pies, cookies, muffins, slices, scones, and carb-based breakfast items for cheap. The muffins are warm, soft and absolutely mouth-watering good. Their coffee is pretty delicious, too! The seating is limited (2 tables) so I prefer takeaway, but if you can get a table, you can enjoy a view of the lake. They sell day-old bread and slices for half off, which is great for people heading into the mountains on a budget.
Nice fresh and interesting loaves of bread. Staff member serving was friendly and efficient. I like the flags on the loaves of bread so you can see what you're buying.
UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP.
Great-Did I say Great-I mean G-R-E-A-T Pies.

And the best part-These exclusive Pies are locally made right here in Wanaka

Growing up in Wanaka was an amazing experience, and the Doughbin was one of the constants of the town.
An iconic bakery, serving up hot and fresh fare on a daily basis. Countless weekends where we would call in here after a game of rugby for a pie and a cream doughnut.
Well.... 40 years later and the doughbin is still the best bakery in town.
Visiting Wanaka for my mums birthday, we decided to pop into town for lunch.
The display was packed with fresh produce, and was a delight to see.
I chose the classic mince pie and of course a cream doughnut.
We also ordered a steak and cheese and a lamb and mint pie.
The pastry had changed slightly (to be expected after such a long time) but I think this was for the better. Light and flakey, it certainly provided a good flavour base for the pie fillings.
The surprise favourite pie was the lamb and mint, with everybody demanding another bite!
The highlight, as expected, was the doughnut. Oh, and the friendly sparrows, always present as they know good food when they see it!
All in all, a fantastic lunch in an incredible setting. Grab a pie, go and sit at the lake and let all of your worries fade away.
What a lovely place, with so nice staff.
Great and tasty pies, bagel, sweet bakery all you want for great breakfast or chill after nice walk around the Wanaka lake.
A great place for dessert. If u are a fan of Doughnuts n don’t like oversweet doughnuts such as Krispy Kreme. Give it a try here. U won’t be regret. Their doughnuts are great like long cream doughnuts. Creams are manmade so creamy n tasty. Omg. Pie also great to try. Their panini tend to be little dry n coffee is too milky or star ranking will be higher.
Real good pies you can get while in Wanaka, it says award winning, many varieties to choose but I always like the beef mince and it came out salty and sausage roll was okay. The staff were lovely and smiling.
Beautiful pies and breakfast food. Quick and a good variety. Lovely staff. Good coffees too. Can sit outside and enjoy the Wanaka lake and the mountains!!
Must visit. Pies are so yummy and affordable. Staff were friendly fast and efficient. Store was clean and tidy so much so we decided to sit in store and have our food. Our little girl lived her gingerbread man. We will be back next time in wanaka from the north island.
The pies were delicious! The crust were just nice and the fillings were generous. There were many varieties and our favorite was butter chicken pie. We bought it on all 3 days which we were in Wanaka. A little sad that we would not be able to eat it again. The best pie I have eaten!
Very good pies. Some of the best in NZ. Yummy deserts too. A couple of vegetarian options, but I wish there were more. No Vegan options. A must stop when visiting. Even if you eat elsewhere, get something from here for the road!
Pretty average gravy style mince and cheese pie, and a bland, dry spinach and feta roll. Coffee was pretty good though!
If you want a good pie, go to Adams and Eve's, on the edge of town heading to QT.
I ate some really good pies here. Such a memorable few days: skiing in the morning, then a drive back down here for pies on the banks of the most beautiful lake, dreamy really. I particularly enjoyed the roast pork (I think it was), a butter chicken and all of the others.
Decent pies at around 5 dollars. As someone who has eaten many pies I wouldn't really class them as 'award winning'. Pastry was nice. 50 cent tomato sauce was a bit steep. Good for a cheap snack on the waterfront as most other eateries in the area are pricey.
Tried the mince and cheese pie and a sausage roll. We enjoyed both they were more of a classic style with the mince being a bit saucy and the cheese in a gooey layer on top. I also had a latte which was delicious. The pies were good but not the best I’ve ever had. I’d still say that’s a win and I recommend this place if you are in town. Bonus it opens super early so you can grab one before you head out for an activity or hit the road.
Steak and cheese meat pie was delicious and the Danish was amazing. Just watch out for the begger birds outside the shop or else you'll get swarmed.
Good variety of sweet and savoury options, and friendly customer service. The food tastes good, but not on the same level as Fergsbakery. Still a good breakfast/ lunch option if short on time and wanting something simple.
The Doughbin is iconic, and for many international tourists, the 1st time they've ever had a meat pie. Honestly, the pies are the star here. The sweets and sandwiches are okay, but the pies have a range that will allow anyone to find something they like. They're only 3*-4* pies; often a bit light on filling, but the sheer range of flavors make up for a lot.
Their cheese rolls are awful. Don't get cheese rolls here.
Best pies I’ve had in nz so far! Very good price too
