A unique food shop in the Bay Area. Walking into the store, you have a sense of personality to it. The owner of this shop reflects the friendly atmosphere of it. The cook too. I got two pies from there, you can get it either frozen or cooked. This place has the most unique pie flavors and classics of course. I found the curry the most unique, and fresh. There is both indoor eating and outdoor eating, and parking wasn't an issue when I was there. I would recommend this place. Love the food, and friendly staff.
I have been meaning to check this place out for some time but always forget due to the limited hours that they have. However, I finally had the opportunity to give them a try. I ordered the classic chicken, curry chicken and the beef shepherd pie and they were all really good and phenomenal flavor. My only letdown is that the bottom part of the crust wasn't crispy but rather a little doughy which I understand can be a little hard to achieve when you have filling sitting on it and the pricing is a little steep per pie considering the size in my opinion but then again, I guess with inflation, everything is going expensive these days when you eat out. All in all, I would go back as I am a huge fan of pot pies and curious to try the other flavors available. I would recommend giving them a try.
I have just started my adventure into the array of different flavors they offer. So far, the all American chicken and the beef were great! The staff is great! Helpful and polite. I am looking forward to tasting many more flavors.
I finally stopped by to try this pot pie shop near my workplace. I found them while searching for local eats and was really intrigued by all the different flavors they make into pot pies, since I've only really tried the classic chicken pot pie. Unfortunately, they were pretty much out of most of the flavors but I ended up getting a ready to eat bavarian roast pork pot pie. The lady at the counter explained most are sold out right now due to timing of the farmers markers they sell at and the holidays. But you can always call in to check what flavors they have! The bavarian roast pork pot pie I got was 5" and was about $12 total. I believe they charge a small fee to heat up the pot pie for you, as you can buy frozen ones as well. The pot pie was nicely baked upon pulling it out of the bag (I ordered togo). The top was crispy and perfectly golden. After removing a part of the top, I was really surprised to find that the inside was loaded with toppings! Huge chunks of pork as well as carrots, peas, and potatoes. They really didn't skimp out even though the pot pie is only 5" and I'm super thrilled about that. I thought the pot pie had good flavor and the filling was cooked well. The only things I would say is it probably could have used more salt and the dough on the bottom and sides were a bit soggy. I think it's par for the course but I would have liked it a bit more crispy so that it could hold up to the filling better. The store has a seating area if you want to dine in and staff are super nice. They have a TV display showing what's available so you choose what you want. I'd definitely go back to try more unique flavors!
My client said he'd buy me lunch if i promise to drop him off at his stylist after our appointment. According to Yelp, this restaurant is along the way and i like pot pies so we stopped here for lunch. We ended up getting the Tuesday Lunch Special of Swedish meatballs & noodles for $12.50. I wanted the pies but my client placed the order & paid before i made up my mind. Oh well, now i have a reason to come back
It was a pounding rain storm... getting to Hayward was treacherous indeed Man this better be freaking worth it I said gripping the steering wheel ever so tight. Totally nothing else around but factories warehouses and the bay salty swamp area. If navigation wasn't zeroing in as I got close o would have said there is no way and Not at all what I expected! Inside is like a typical diner gone bonkers; aka salt water fish tanks plants growing outta control. It's obvious they have been here a bit. The staff was prompt and courteous. Unfortunately there were no lobstah pies left. It's ok there's dozens more to choose from. I opted for a couple of goulash pies bae wanted lamb shepherds and a couple of classic chicken pies The chicken classic was on point and the goulash was spicy and filling. Perfect amount of flakey crust top n bottom with a nice rim around the edges. The instructions are lacking for frozen pies as thawing them out in the fridge would take decades if ever. But I did the first part aka 2 minutes on high Then used sensor reheat button till they were brown bubbly goodness! Don't have sensor reheat I'd recommend 50% power for 5 minute increments till the center is hot using a knife to test. If that doesn't work bake the sucker in the oven. Either way, on a cold windy rainy day like this was, there isn't much that can substitute for a home made (by them not me) pot pie!
Cute little pie shop and deli, hidden in an industrial building in Hayward, with plenty of savory options for lunch last week. Got the classic american chicken pot pie, and it was served hot (50 cents extra for heated pies vs frozen) and ready in less than 10 minutes. It was delicious, filled with large chunks of white meat free range chicken and potatoes, as well as bits of carrots and peas, the pie crust baked just right with a nice buttery flavor... a perfectly satisfying meal. A welcoming atmosphere where the staff felt like family. The space is bigger than it looks, including indoor seating and a fish tank with various fish I heard the worker, possibly the owner, telling stories about to a customer. There's even an additional room full of tables and seating and lovely decor and artwork on the walls. Hours are limited (only open till 3pm), but the steady flow of customers on a Thursday afternoon, many of which were seemingly regulars, tells me that this place must be doing something good that has people coming back for more.
What a GEM! And a hidden one at that. Celebrated Thanksgiving a bit early with #ThankYouThursday and decided to check out pot pie paradise after seeing the great reviews on Yelp. I'm not normally a pot pie type of person, but with the cold weather, it was definitely the way to go. Pot Pie Paradise is nestled in an industrial part of Hayward so it's a bit of a drive through back roads to get there. They've got a decent parking lot and when I stopped by after lunch time, it wasn't too busy. They have a really helpful menu that shows all the options they have for pies, sandwiches, and other lunch choices. It's also updated to show which pies they're sold out of. I wanted to try the bulgogi beef but unfortunately they were sold out that day. Instead, I went for the Thai chicken curry. The Thai chicken curry pot pie ($10) had noodles, green beans, chicken, and carrots in it. It was delicious! I don't usually have noodles with thai chicken curry but it worked here. It's a pretty good portion for lunch and can maybe even be shared with two people. Though for me, I ended up just having the rest later for dinner. The service was great and the staff was very helpful. I loved reading the newspaper articles they have posted around the shop as I waited. They've got lots of seating inside if you prefer to dine in but I opted to take it to-go. Such a great local business! I'll definitely be back to try other pot pie options.
Found this hidden gem on a drive one day going to work and I knew I had to make time to stop by. I was very excited to try the various pies given the range of flavors and options! I decided to go with the classic American chicken pot pie, because I figured you can't go wrong with a classic for a first try. And it definitely held up to my expectations! The crust was flakey, buttery, and so savory and the chucks of chicken were hearty and plentiful! Paired with the peas, carrots and melt in your mouth potatoes. It definitely hit the spot on a gloomy day! I ate it in the store so there's an additional $0.50 charge for that but they also have plenty of frozen pies as well! It's a cute little shop ran by some of the nicest staff and the sweetest owner who is often seen at the register. If you have the chance, make sure to stop by to find your favorite pie! It may be hard to locate because it's in a very industrial area and on the corner of a warehouse type building, but once you find it you'll be glad you did!
