Ashby Pies

My husband wanted to try the pies here because of the online hype. We went fairly early around 8am but the two pies he wanted to try, one was beef cheek, we're sold out already. I had the Mince and Cheese cost $11 - had lots of cheese, mince was nice, pastry is really good. He had the Slow Roast Pork pie cost $13 - he said it was nice enough, nothing to write home about, was pleasantly surprised by the piece of crackling on the top of the pie. We also had the Pork, Jalapeño and cream cheese sausage roll cost $6 each. I liked it, but I'd prefer to taste each ingredient in each bite. The cream cheese is only on the left of the roll so you only taste it when you bite the left, but then you get a mouthful of only cream cheese rather than a bit of cream cheese and a bit of pork filling in each bite. Overall the pies were just OK but not good enough to warrant the price. Service was good, ladies were friendly.

Absolutely lives up to the hype. Great value for quality of ingredients and flavour. Was lucky enough to try the Salmon Benedict before it was taken off the menu. Great coffee and friendly service. An excellent stop for a morning pick-me-up.

Amazing, Authentic NZ pies, not the ones which has flaky exterior.nnBear in mind, these are expensive from the usual pies which are available in NZ, starts from 11$ for basic pie and goes up to 13$. But the taste justifies the price tag. I’ve had the steak and cheese classic. The steak was juicy and flavorful and it had an amazing cheese pull.nnHighly recommend if you are near by St. Heliers.

Big lover of pies and seen this place on Instagram, it didn’t disappoint, pies were well made with plenty of filling, also had a cake and roll

5 stars isn’t enough.nnEveryone knows the pies are next level.nnPeople are sleeping on the cinnamon buns though. Every time I smash one of these cinnamon buns I straight up transcend . They are hands down the best cinnamon buns in Auckland. Unfathomably delicious fr.nnStaff are always super lovely.
