piefection gourmet pies

good pie. good service.. i was in mount gravatt and had heard of piefection. i drove past it and on to mansfield (my destination) then headed back to have a jack daniels pork pie. it was yummo. now, i normally only eatpieswith tomato or bbq sauce so when i eat a pie without added sauce and i like it ..... it's a good pie. my only suggestion would be to add small applepiesto the range.

overpriced, overrated.pieswere luke warm at best. chilli fries had potential, if they weren't frozen chips. never again.

thesepiesare awesome, wish there were more places like this in brissy. i had a slow cooked beef bourbon pie it was just so much better than the typical reheated garbage many bakeries are putting out!

just got a sausage roll, coke and a pie for $16. the pastry is terrible, the sausage roll was so light i thought it was going to blow out the car window, the pie was watery gravy and a couple bits of beef.. matt yourpiesare shit. for a good pie go 5 mins down the road to stone artisan bakers greenslopes.

i'd have given a lower mark if there was one available. this was without doubt, the worst pie i've ever tried. i asked for a chunky beef and the pert reply was 'all ourpiesare chunky - $6.30 please'.

it had exactly two small pieces of gristle in the pie. no meat at all. two pieces of carrot and possibly a piece of potato. the rest was thickened gravy.

the experience was all the more disappointing because of all the hoopla advertising 'by chef matt roman' - he should be ashamed of himself - and by the long period of time i'd waited before trying this (the wife doesn't care forpiesso i had to wait for a solo expedition - and the crappy parking had already put me off a couple of times).

i will definitely never be back, except perhaps to complain and demand my money back. i've had betterpiesfrom the supermarket.

if you really want a good pie, go north to stones corner and stones artisan bakery where the wagyupiesare to dream about.

seriously guys, just close the shop if you're going to serve up such rubbish.

i've been trying to get to piefection - either location - for several months. finally made it in today on my way back from the gold coast.

there was a short line, which i took as a good sign at 1:15pm on a sunday afternoon. that said, when it was my turn i was less than inspired by the limited selection available and the state of the remainingpies- they looked nothing like the photos i've seen on zomato and piefection's facebook page...more like they had been in the heating case for several hours.

still, i've been waiting to try them for months, so i wasn't leaving without a couple pies. thus, i ordered the french beef cheek bourguinon with wagyu beef (i had to try the beef cheeks, right?) and the char siu pork belly.

the french beef cheek bourguinon's crust was soggy and couldn't support its own weight. no worries, i have spoons, but the filling was really soft and mushy as well - more like a soft paste. the flavor hinted at what i assume are quality ingredients, but the overall pie was very disappointing. this rated a 2.5 and might have been the only time i've ever fed my dogs beef cheeks.

the char siu pork belly pie that ended up in my box looked quite unappealing. the pie's upper crust had fallen and the red char siu sauce had soaked through it. the pork belly within was quite tender, but the meat was swimming in the char siu sauce, which was really really sweet (this looked and tasted similar to sweet and sour sauce in a chinese restaurant). this too rated a 2.5, but the dogs loved it.

i also grabbed a bottle of grubb bros cold brew coffee with milk. there was something very wrong with this coffee - the best way i can describe it would be 'muddy tasting'. i thought maybe i hadn't shaken it enough, but a little extra shake made it even worse and after lady meatball confirmed my assessment (don't you just love it when your partner asks you to try something to confirm that it is terrible or gone off?) i was left with no other option except to pour this out. this rated a 1, but i acknowledge that piefection only stock this product, not bottle it. i will independently fire off some feedback to them and haven't let this influence my overall rating for piefection.

that said, my overall experience was pretty poor - definitely not pie perfection. i would have liked to try the triple prime beef with mashed potatoes and gravy, but that was not available. based on the lofty ratings from others, i'm sure i'll give them another go at some point, but i'll make sure it is early in the day and i certainly won't go out of my way to return.

pies from piefection are perfection. they look amazing and taste even better. choices are abundant and all very interesting. it was very difficult to pick one over the other, we ended up having threepiesat the shop and bought another six frozen ones to bake at home.

we were already impressed with our eat-in picks. after cracking open our take home pack tonight, they completely sealed the deal for our 4.5 score, highest we will ever go. the shop itself is very humble looking with nothing extra from a normal pie shop we are familiar with. but i can guarantee you that piefection'spiesare not an average of sort. they are above and beyond. they are extraordinary. fillings combinations were chosen carefully as well as ingredients for the pie itself. for example, honey-baked ham, tomato, and jarlsberg sandwich pie, instead of using thinly sliced ham we all expect, they use thickly cut ham and the cheese was oozing deliciously.

as we explored more and more flavours, we found that each of thepieswere packed full with quality ingredients. seasoning was spot on. pastry was flakey and unlike many other pies, i was more than happy to devour the whole thing without leaving any crust behind. we have come to a conclusion that it doesn't matter which pie you choose here, they will all taste great and very indulgent. take your time to enjoy them one by one or you could be like us, save yourselves some trips and buy nine of them at a time. i cannot imagine anyone will be disappointed with their creations.

absolutely delicious! we had the jack daniels bbq pork rib and it was absolutely worth the $. since eating here i think about and crave thepiesall the time. i would highly recommend this place to anyone in brisbane.

i love a good pie and i have been known to travel miles in search of a satisfying pie experience. thankfully these guys are just down the road from my house (which could be a bad thing for the belly and the bank balance) and they make excellent pies. the aesthetic of the completedpiesis nothing to write home about, but none of that matters when you taste them - my current favourite is the jack daniels bbq pie. the price points are not cheap but they do offer consistent high quality ingredients and flavours.

chef matt roman's passion forpiesis so clear upon visiting piefection. the innovative range ofpieshere is great. our absolute favs are the lamb shank and rosemary and the jack daniels pork rib pie omg amazing. we have made the mistake of ordering the animal fries and two pies, don't get us wrong the chips are to die for but it was way too much food haha.

so we popped into piefection on the weekend after saying to ourselves we really need to try thesepiesout! we've heard tonnes of great things, so we're very keen.

they're located on busy logan road, so it may be hard to find a park, but we noticed a sign afterwards that they have parking around the back, so if you can't find one try that. the store itself is not the most modern stores around, it feels very 1990's like a classic takeaway shop. but we are eatingpiesafter all!

so on to the pies... i tried the jack daniels bbq pork topped with mash potato and oh. my. god... it was amazing. it's not cheap at $8, but it's well worth it. nice big chunks of meat, beautiful sauce and the pastry is excellent. it was hard to fault!

mrs atetooomuch had the plain beef and whilst it was good, it wasn't as good as mine. we went about 2pm on sunday and they didn't have many left so if you intend to go, do so before lunch so you get a full choice.

oh, and my biggest tip here, is that don't come thirsty... they're drinks are insanely priced. $5 for a 600ml coke? yikes...

beyond belief !! these are the craziest and most interestingpiesi have ever seen and eaten !!!
the man behind the magic is a dude called matt roman and he appears to be a mad scientist !!!

2nd time round. i am very disappointed as we have been there a few times and goodpiesnot great service.
i gave it time before i went back to buy 1 pie and 1 spinach and fetta parcel, great parcel full of spinach and flavour but the pie we bought was so dried up , it wasnt worth eating, wasted 5 80 on the pie, hopefully you will get it better next time, we do like the pies, please make them full of meat and flavour.
thankyou,,

bestpiesin the city.. the best pie i've had in brisbane came from a place i've driven past every day, but never really thought was worth checking out. i figured it was just another strip shop bakery. looks can be deceiving.

my choice (the jack daniels pork pie) was superb, as was the beef pie i purchased on another person's behalf. in both cases, a deliciously moreish crust surrounded the generous and no-nonsense fillings; it's really worth emphasising that the fillings are chunky and of a high quality, unlike anything i've seen in a bakery-style pie.

this place is on my daily route in to work, and i'm seriously concerned i'll be stopping by way too often to buy a pie in advance for work lunches. you need to try this place.

a bit bumpy at first.. decided to go for lunch. the girl behind the counter was obviously quite new as she wasn't aware of the menu options yet (i'm sure i got overcharged for a meal but that is neither here nor there, mistakes get made) when i asked for a bag because i couldn't holdpiesand cans of drink with only two hands she put thepiesin sideways instead of putting the drinks in which would have been more sensible. however when i did get home what i found was the mash potato they make is seriously some of the best mash i have ever had seriously it's amazing it made it worth every hickup i would take sidewayspiesevery time for that mash.

every time. ..
