Often praised
- foodMy experience at this restaurant was truly amazing. The food was so good that I didn't just eat it, but truly took my time and enjoyed every bite. The atmosphere was calming, contributing to a wonderfully relaxing bite.
- piesThe pies here remind me of those I had in the UK; crispy pastry texture with gooey and savory (often maybe too savory) inside ingredients. In that nostalgic context, I really loved the pies here. But I can also imagine that these aren’t really types of pies for everybody, as some people could find the flavor too greasy and/or strong.
- steak and mushroom pieSince I was in a hurry to continue our city tour, she efficiently recommended her favorites and suggested a meal deal that included a drink, which was perfect as we needed to hydrate. I chose an apple juice to go with the recommended steak and mushroom and chicken meat pies. We devoured them on the go, and both my sister and I were very impressed.
- meat piesMy experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It offers the best happy hour on the pier, with great priced beer and tasty meat pies. It's a perfect place for a quick stop while walking the waterfront.
- crab dipOur server, Karen, provided exceptional service. We enjoyed the crab dip and steak pies, which I highly recommend 😋.
- FoodWe tried the steak and mushroom pie and the savory chicken pie, and we both enjoyed them very much! The food was excellent.
- pastiesget the pasties for $6 bucks, really good deal
- coffeeWhat a pleasant cafe for a short break! I enjoyed the excellent coffee and a huge cookie. The service was great, and the overall experience was tasty and pleasant.

Frequently criticized
- crustThe first time I went, I thought the pies were amazing and came out steaming hot and fresh. Unfortunately, the last time, we ordered a shepherd pie and it tasted reheated and uneven at some parts, and the crust was a little hard rather than buttery and flakey. It definitely had the makings of a good dish, but I’m not sure what happened here.
- fillingthe filling (beef/cheese) I didn't care for
- foodMy experience at this restaurant was disappointing, particularly regarding the vegetarian options. The mac & cheese pie and curry vegetables were severely lacking in flavor and, unfortunately, weren't served hot. This made the meal less enjoyable than I had hoped.
- meat pie20 min meat pie, leather shell w mush inside
- Shepherd's pieShepherd's pie was completely cold in the middle
- piethe pie wasn't larger
- piespies were small portions and bland and falvorless
- Aussie pienot quite like the Aussie pie
- bland fillingWhat is this bland filling?
- burnt foodeven a bit burnt
If you're craving a hearty, flavorful pie with a great crust, this place is definitely worth a visit. Just be aware that some experiences mention inconsistencies in flavor or temperature, so manage your expectations for every single dish.

- serviceThe tomato soup was pretty good, but the rest of the meal was a complete miss. The only redeeming aspect of this meal was the great service. However, I dislike that the restaurant charges separately for the “increase to minimum wage” which occurred quite a while ago.
- staffThe staff was very friendly, and helpful as well.
- AnnetteAnnette was a rock star pleasant professional upbeat informative
- serverMy experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The food was good, and the server was very sweet. However, the service was incredibly chaotic.
- KevinMaya provided warm and cordial service with wonderful energy and a beautiful smile. Kevin was not only the king of the kitchen but also a full-on utilitarian, even playing tour guide for a couple of minutes. PMP gets 5 stars from me!
- ServiceService was excellent
- MayaI had the best team food experience ever, thanks to Kevin, Maya, and Parker. Kevin was incredibly helpful, Maya was so sweet, and Parker had a great vibe. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for delicious food and a great atmosphere.
- customer serviceKaren went above and beyond to locate the order, and when we discovered it was the wrong location, not only did she call Renton to let them know, but she and her team pulled together 30 pies in under 25 minutes, got them all labeled and offered me a Guinness for MY troubles. Truly incredible and solution-oriented customer service. 💖 They have my business forever!
- friendlyThe staff was very friendly
- kitchenthe kitchen were quick
Frequently criticized
- serviceI had reviewed the menu, which appealed to me greatly, and was looking forward to my visit. However, upon arrival, I was abruptly told, "we are closing in 3 minutes, to-go only. " As a former chef and bar owner, I find incorrectly posted hours, especially on platforms like Google, to be quite upsetting.
- waiting timeit would take 16 and not 8 minutes
- staffGiving plenty of grace here because the wifi was down and two of their four menu tvs were down. Perhaps at a shift change because staff was very otherwise occupied. Windows said they did smoothies, and we needed just a small snack before an early evening harbor cruise, but the paper menus didn’t say anything about that.
- Google mediaa LOT of what is posted on Google by them is poorly proofread for accuracy
- My Pie. With Two. Spoons.Brings. My Pie. With Two. Spoons.
- Unprofessional staffUnprofessional staff who don't value the time
- another set of forksoffer for another set of forks
- apologyvery rudely with zero apology
- attitudenasty attitude girl present
- businessIt was a few days before Christmas and freezing cold, yet there was no apology or offer to wait inside. If this is how they operate and treat people, I'm glad I didn't give them my business, and neither will my friends, family, or business partners.
Overall, you can expect a largely positive service experience, often marked by friendly and efficient staff. While there are occasional hiccups with wait times or professionalism, the good usually outweighs the bad, making it worth a try.

- checkdon't tell you until you get the check
- menu pricesraise menu prices rather than charge separately
- minimum wage adjustmentthey tacked on almost ten percent for a "minimum wage adjustment"
- overpricedVer overpriced for the size and lack of quality
- portion sizespretty pricey for the small portion sizes
- pricesHowever, the side order of chilli was good. Do yourself a favor and don't pay stupid prices for poor food, unlike we did. You have been warned.
- save a few penniesNot a smart move to save a few pennies
If you're looking for a good deal, focus on their happy hour or early bird specials, as those seem to offer the best bang for your buck. Otherwise, be prepared for potentially higher regular menu prices and keep an eye out for additional service charges on your bill.

Disappointing Experience, Rude Service
My wife and I stopped by on our way to the airport, hoping for some pies and fun before leaving Seattle. We arrived a little after 11 AM, but the sign indicated they opened at 10: 30 AM, and the website stated 11 AM. The doors were locked, though we could see kitchen staff working.
When I called, a woman came outside and very rudely, with zero apology, informed us that someone called in sick and they were running behind, asking us to come back later. It was a few days before Christmas and freezing cold, yet there was no apology or offer to wait inside. If this is how they operate and treat people, I'm glad I didn't give them my business, and neither will my friends, family, or business partners.

Excellent Pies and Service!
My experience at this restaurant was excellent. The service was excellent, and the food was excellent and very well made. I tried the Guinness Irish Pie with a side of Chilli, which was a generous portion and definitely worth the nap afterwards.
They offer a wide assortment of beverages to pair with your meal. I really wish they had merch, like a T-shirt or hat. I would definitely stop by regularly if I lived here.
Give them a try, you'll be glad you did. 👍

Amazing Food and Unbelievable Service!
My experience at this restaurant was a solid 10/10! The food was absolutely amazing, perfectly prepared and served piping hot directly from the oven. All the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh.
I highly recommend going for the full experience, which includes a pie, a topper, and a side. Be warned, the portions are generous, so come very hungry! If you ask for the house gravy, you're in for a real treat.
I tried the beef and mushrooms pie last time, which was fantastic, especially with the gravy and loaded tater tots with cheese and bacon. The service was unbelievable; they truly take good care of you. It's one of my favorite places in the waterfront, though it can be a bit hard to find – I actually missed it for a couple of years before recently discovering it.
They mentioned a happy hour from 2-5 (though please don't quote me on the exact times), where you can get pasties for $6, which is a really good deal if you want to try something new at a great price.
