Pie shop


A pie shop is a take away outlet specialising in pies, especially meat pies. They are common in parts of the United Kingdom and Australia.

Countries

Australia

A form of specialised bakery, or in more recent times purely a retail outlet selling reheated cooked pies, pie shops in Australia usually sell meat pies, sausage rolls, pasties and other pastry-wrapped baked goods.
The growth of hot bread shops in Australia has largely supplanted the specialist pie shop.

United Kingdom

Pie shops are mostly concentrated in the North of England, particularly the North West and sell meat pies, sandwiches, fresh soups and cakes. In particular, Wigan and Bolton are home to local chains, including Greenhalgh's Craft Bakery.
In recent years, companies such as Greggs and West Cornwall Pasty Company have taken the business model used by independent pie shops and expanded nationwide.
