fergbaker

good coffee and food. prices are good and staff is friendly. have to line up in the mornings to get that coffee but you get a good one.

french stick was fresh and tasty, but the hero was the lamb pie! perfect pastry with tasty meaty filling, flavours balanced no complaints. nom nom nom

every pie is a great choice! haven’t eat pie for ages, but can’t say no to the puffy pastry, tasty steak pie, chilly pie, pork belly pie, chicken mushroom pie, yummmmmmm!

i am sure queenstown's famous burger is @fergburger_queenstown but rightttt next to it they have @fergbaker ! it is a bakery that sells their famous pies and pastries!

i got the 𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼 𝗽𝗶𝗲 (5/5) and the layered pastry was soooooooo flaky fried and buttery. the amount of gravy and chunks of soft venison just like heaven.

the 𝗯𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝘂𝘁 (5/5) is a must! i usually do not like donuts but thisssss oneeee was the bomb! the bread itself was bouncy-ish chewy and soft ans the vanilla cream was very light!!!!!

lastly the 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗻𝘁 (3/5). it was pretty norm i gotta say. the pastry was abit soft and not as flaky and the amount of chocolate was abitttt little.

ferg steak pie. huge chunks of meat and a decent amount of pepper. great pies pastry not flaky enough but good in its own right.

place was absolutely packed on a sunday. they have a huge array of bakery delights here. wasnt hungry enough but those baguettes look superb. might try pop in again before i leave

would have to be one of the best pies and sausage rolls anywhere in the world. buttery pastry and great flavor. get one while you wait in line for a burger

having already had fergburger 4 times and a ferg pie once (i believe i got steak and mushroom last time), i decided to go and try other pie flavours at fergbaker. my boyfriend recommended the venison, portobello mushroom, red wine and onion pie as that is his favourite and it was really delicious. he got the lamb shank pie and said that’s his second favourite to the venison.

firstly, the pastry was warm, buttery and crispy, which is everything you’ll want in a pie. they even had a cute pastry cut out of a deer (or a lamb if it’s lamb shank pie etc) to distinguish the difference in flavours. the filling was generous, perfect and delicious. the venison wasn’t dry and a bit sweet from the onion sauce. i absolutely loved the onion sauce as it added a kick of sweetness to the savoury sauce. i did however find it lacked a bit in mushrooms but the ratio was more meat to mushroom if you like that.

i highly recommend fergbaker if you can’t be stuffed lining up for a fergburger or want to try something new. my boyfriend said the boston cream donuts are also amazing but i’ve yet to try it!

best meat pie in nz!

the bakery is right besides the burger restaurant which makes it a complementary place to visit when you are waiting for the burger. the boston cream donut is absolutely amazing and i think it was popular in the store. they also have a variety of breads which look super nice but we are too full to try.

their steak pie is soooo goooood 😊👍🏼👌🏼 the best boston cream i’ve ever had... really really good 👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼

best donut by far i have ever had!

fresh baked bread and savory goods are always a treat when wanting to eat something without spoiling your appetite. apple pie was great and quite the large serving... beware

had the ferg pie there this morning. amazing but beef was a big chewy. also had a boston cream doughnut for desert - f ing amaze ing.

with a small latte with extra shot to wash it down. great work. only took one star off because of the chewy beef - an easy fix.

got a chili steak and cheese pie yesterday from here. to be honest, a little expensive for a pie and have had better pies. the pastry was good, i'd say not far from being on point. the pie was a tad dry for my liking and didn't have much cheese. also, calling it chili steak is a bit misleading. it had a touch of chili.

there was quite a bit of empty space which means they're going a little tight on the filling.

i love the burgers the ferg team do, but the pies could be better.

pies ok- decent amount of filling and meat tender but not overwhelmingly great.
bread is very disappointing! we tried the croissant, baguettes, twists etc and found all to be very bland, dry and did not taste like bread from a bakery should.
