Piecaramba! in Winchester

I found Piecaramba on google when looking for a non-boring place to eat given that we were only visiting Winchester for the day and i didnt want to go somewhere that i could just go whilst at home. Piecaramba did not disappoint. I booked a table and the staff were prepared, very welcoming, warm, friendly and just very tentative to what we needed. The restaurant itself doesnt look much from the outside but is bursting with personality inside and the food is exquisite. The fact that i was able to play the original playstation (which i very much played in my youth) with my kids while having pie and mash (not just a standard one either, really flavourful) and a cheeky spritzer was just amazing! I felt so at home here. Really cannot emphasise enough how much i loved this place, gutted there is nothing like this where i live. Really recommend. My kids had the best day! Thankyou.

The guys at Piecarumba catered our wedding for us and we couldn’t have asked for better food or nicer people !!! The pie and mash was amazing and they’re so good at catering for allergies !! If you’re looking for someone to cater your event then I would 100% recommend these guys ! We’ve been to the restaurant a few time and also bought pies to take home and it’s always fantastic!!! Best pies around and an absolutely amazing place for Gluten Free !!!! I just wish we lived closer !!!

We used Piecaramba! for our wedding breakfast for 85 guests. We had numerous guests from Continental Europe who had never eaten pie before. Our guests really liked them, mentioning how delicious they were. We had an on-table service, which went flawless. We'd definitely pick Piecaramba! again for our wedding if we could do this all over again.

We booked a table for 2.30, our food eventually arrived at 3.15. Two other tables of 3 and us, a table of two. Took ten minutes to order our drinks, one of which was then forgotten and we had to ask for it again. One table of three had their food delivered and they all sent it back due to being tepid. Food was returned to table, one sent back for still being tepid and one jug of liquor missing. At around 3o’clock we were told that there was a problem with our ‘ticket’ and that our food would be 5 minutes. 15 minutes later, it finally arrived. Pie was hot but peas /mash tepid. Gravy was hot so ate our food. Gravy was meant to be onion, but thin and watery. Wouldn’t return or recommend.

Small friendly, quirky, simple but great place. Great wholesome filling food and extremely well priced. Pie choice was superb.

Great little place with delicious pie and mash, old school games and extremely friendly staff. Would recommend to anyone and will be back!

This place was recommended by our daughter who is celiac and of course there are GF options on the menu, great for people with special dietary requirements or veggie/vegan. We had the chicken and mushroom pies with mash, mushy peas, and gravy. The pie crust is amazing and the filling is delicious, but equally the mash, mushy peas, and gravy, are all heaven on a plate. We liked it so much we went again the next evening. Sadly we had to return home and can't avail ourselves of such luscious pies in our neck of the woods. Every town/city should have a piecaramba.

Don’t use Piecarumba’s online booking request form. I received an email from “Rob” confirming the booking, but they had no table available when we arrived, claiming they had not received our booking.

This themed venue is definitely unique and will attract a market of not just traditional pie eaters. Very relaxed and casual place to eat, chat, meet. We only visited Winchester for the day and having had finished brunch around the corner, partner squeezed in a single pie with peas and mash. I witnessed a belly buldging sacrifice… It’s interesting what comfort food and rave reviews can sway someone.

Fantastic pie! Loads of cool stuff on the walls from Jaws to Toy Story. Great service. We played a couple of PlayStation and Nintendo Snez games too. Definitely worth checking out the Star Wars toilet! Thank you.

Very nice pies, the missus said the classics steak was lovely & full of meat, the liquor was yummy & not like the typical pie & mash. You can’t bet a pint of green tea. To top it off our table had a console on it & enjoyed Mario kart & street fighter. The decor is a surprise especially the toilet. Romantic setting upstairs with dim lighting which was nice

Cracking pie, mash, peas and gravy! There’s loads of geeky stuff to look at while you wait for your food.

A perfect place to have supper with our son's family. The girls were agog at the decor and games. Great, tasty pies and lovely accompaniments. How anyone eats the stacks or two or three pies I don't know - just one pie and its extras was very satisfying. Lovely staff, really attentive and... well, just nice. When one of us had an unexpected health issue (short lived and not too serious) the concern shown was remarkable and heartwarming. We live too far away for regular visits, but we'll be back when we can.

We waited about 45 minutes until they came to tell us they’d forgotten about us because our ticket had fallen behind something in the kitchen. To be fair they did apologise, but the atmosphere felt like they were so preoccupied with being quirky and edgy etc that they’d forgotten they were actually supposed to be running a restaurant. When the food arrived it was okay but not spectacular, and we didn’t have that much time to eat because they close at 8.30pm. We knew about the closing time in advance, and that’s why we’d booked the table for 7pm but so much of that time was wasted. I also think they should pay a bit more attention to the shared games. We played Connect 4 and it was full of crumbs and could’ve done with a good clean out.

The Holy Cow is made from organic beef...I love that! Unfortunately the meat in mine was grizzly and fatty. Their special Piecaramba is delicious! The crust was outstanding! I am intrigued by a few of their other flavors and will return to give them a try. Customer service is excellent. The restaurant has a following, customers were enjoying the games that are available to play as you eat. For me to give Piecaramba a 5 I would have liked the mash to be made fresh not brought in in a bag. The peas are from a tin, I hypothesized that is more normal than not in this area.

Piecaramba catered for my Son's wedding in Melbourne last weekend, and were magnificent! Aside from the fact the various pies, mash and peas were truly delicious, the service they provided was faultless and way above and beyond what we expected. An extremely friendly, funny and hard-working team, they helped enhance what was already a fantastic day. I had steak in ale pie which was delicious, my wife had chicken and mushroom which was equally delicious, and we received nothing but positive feedback from the other guests. Think twice about having meat and two veg for your wedding breakfast, and give these guys a try. No-one leaves the room hungry! We live in an area renowned for pies, and Piecaramba would make the local piemakers very nervous! Well done team and thank you so much for everything you did.

The pies are delicious, there is a wide range of choices on the menu with classic options and also more "out there" fillings. The pies are gluten free and there are various veggie / vegan options so all dietary requirements are catered for. Amazing quality and always great to support local businesses!

Thought I’d try this quirky and pleasantly off beat restaurant. I’m a very satisfied customer who will come back. Tasty and well priced food, served quickly and with a smile. I now intend to work my way through through their tempting looking lists of pies - classic comfort food.

My husband and I had dinner at Piecaramba and it was both tasty and filling. The pie crust was some of the best crust we had ever had. It would be worth going for the crust alone. The pies and sides were generous portions, we...

We've eaten at the Winchester Piecaramba a fair few times and it's always been a fabulous place which caters to the complex dietary requirements of several of our social groups. Most pies being GF means it's one of the few places my husband can have...

Really tasty pie and mash! Seating not very comfortable as benches so no back support which after a while wasn’t comfortable. Decor is great - loads of fun. Reasonably priced. Don’t have the slushy cocktail unless staff can assure you that it’s properly chilled -...

My friend and I walked past and couldn’t resist! The theming drew us in and then once we smelt the pies there was no going back. Our lovely server was Emma, she was so helpful. As we hadn’t been before she gave great recommendations for...

My husband and I have been meaning to try this place for a few years and finally booked a table to celebrate his birthday. We had a lovely meal and enjoyed the decor and games. However, we were not informed that they closed one hour...

This place is a hidden gem. Great pies, great food at a good price. Lots to choose from. Staff are really friendly - and the decor is too interesting. They even have Snes machines that you can play on your table (mario kart in our...

We went to this restaurant because it was so highly rated. Unfortunately the food was not very good. We got the mac and cheese pie and the vegan porky pie. The pies were very dense. The mac and cheese was overcooked and stodgy. The pastry...

The pies,mash and mushy peas we ordered were amazing and as a coeliac it was great to be able to enjoy gluten free dining. The staff were brilliant and so friendly. Highly recommended and will definitely be returning.

Fantastic little pie shop, quirky, retro games and fab decor. Pies were immense, full of flavour and plenty of choice for vegetarians as well as meat lovers! Staff looked after us really well, my daughter and I loved the Top trumps in the cutlery caddie,...

Great pie and super friendly service. Took the family in for a treat tea and will definitely be making a return trip. The Blue Steel pie is particularly good!

This restaurant was right up my street! It was super fun with nintendo games to play and endless top trumps! The food was super tasty , really good hearty pies! Service was excellent! Really recommend the experience here!!

Loved the vibe of this little restaurant. A great concept of your choice of pie and mash plus extra bits, couldn’t be simpler. Very cool decor with so many movie references and a PlayStation to use whilst you wait for your food!! Food tasted great.

I don't normally write reviews but I was so disappointed by the lunch today, I'm really confused by the good reviews on here, maybe it was just a naff day today?? Came in with my husband and our baby. I've been waiting months to visit...

I’ve visited the winchester restaurant and they also catered for my office party at Christmas so I knew it would be very good quality. This was the reason why I decided to use Rob and his team for a surprise birthday party for my wife...

This is pie heaven even before you know most of the pies are gluten free - which makes it all the more marvellous for us coeliacs. Superb staff (one of who also coeliac) really helpful and knowledgable to make you feel at ease. A great...

Booked table in advance, on arrival given a very small table with stools that is right next to the toilet. I feel like a table with stools should be flagged when booking as not appropriate for everyone. The table was sticky and one seat had...

Great service, a lovely visit. It's a fun environment, there's lots to keep you occupied. Great atmosphere. Thank you

It’s difficult to describe this environment and do it justice.Suffice to say it’s qualitatively qwerky .The tasty food reminded me of days gone by.What made this visit even more memorable was the attentive customer service.Very reasonable prices too. Please visit Piecaramba next you are in...

Simply the Best pie we have ever had, do yourself a favour if you in the area and go to this place it’s just amazing, had the steak pie n chips and mushy peas and gravy was such a delicious treat wow, great friendly service...

We were visiting Winchester for the Christmas market then looking for somewhere to eat when my friend found this place by chance. Amazing food!! Loved the Bounty Hunter pie. They had lots of variety for for vegetarians as well. Definitely worth a visit and don't...

I highly recommend this amazing place not only for the fabulous pies but also for the outstanding service, friendly staff, value for money and imaginative decor. The restaurant made us smile as soon as we walked in and I’ve never laughed so hard when I...

Another great meal at Piecaramba. Brought family who were visiting from Spain and Piecaramba did not disappoint. Despite it being very busy with a large Xmas party, the service was outstanding and only a 15/20 minute wait. Christmas pies were amazing. Highly recommended and don't...

Rob & team were fab. Booking was made very easy for our group of 18 & we all placed our food orders in advance. Super mario karts and connect 4 kept us entertained as we waited for all of our group to arrive - and...

Fabulous place just off the main drag. Great selection of pies and mash and mushy peas. Food excellent, real comfort food. Excellent for vegetarians and vegans. Decor if great fun and you can play an electronic game, top trumps, connect 4 etc whilst you wait...

Busy chrimstas time but everything was delicious, we waited only 15minutes, great atmosphere and prices. Thank you

so glad we booked - with only 6 tables we'd not have got a place. Really friendly staff, great food with an excellent selection of pies. A hidden comic book gem with lots of fascinating info on comic book characters on the walls ceiling and...

All round excellent pie experience, we booked ahead for a restaurant that I had read had limited seating and were warmly welcomed. Food was quickly provided after ordering, we had a Pie Meal each (including choices of mash options and beans options) and a Woolverine...

Seriously good pies. Would love to go back. Great fun for kids too. Darth Vadar handdryer (who knew) and fun memorabilia.

My husband and I had lunch here. An amazing menu, delicious pies. I’m coeliac so strictly gluten free so I was gobsmacked to find all the pies were GF as well as the gravy on the side. The pastry was delicious, far better than any...

We visited really out of curiosity because my coeliac husband was interested in trying a gluten-free pie not made by me, which is normally his only option. We were surprised at the good quality of the pies and excellent gluten-free pastry. Not convinced by the...

Had a meal there today, really good and 4 clean plates. Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back.

This is more than a restaurant, it's a super-fun experience. If you or your children are into video games, movies or comic books, then this is such a great place to visit. And the pies are tasty too!

Great vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options. Real food without any fuss. Great atmosphere and very friendly staff. We have also taken advantage of the take away frozen pies to heat and have at home.

I love pies, my wife not so keen, but even she said this was one of the nicest meals we had. Lovely meal, would highly recommend.

We went there for date night off the back or trip adviser reviews and was not disappointed. The meals were delicious, so much to choose from and very good value for money. Such a lovely quirky little place, we play connect 4 whilst eating and...

Surprisingly wide range of pies. Several good veggie options. We had beef, chicken and two veggie. All were delicious as were the mash and minted chilli mushy peas. Would go bac. Great winter meal

We tried this restaurant based on the Tripadvisor reviews and weren't disappointed! Just off the main street, wide range of pies including vegetarian and vegan options. Went with teenagers and had a fabulous time, the Mario kart at the table was a hit as was...

A wonderful welcome awaited us when we popped into today. A wide choice including vegan options, absolutely delicious pies, mash & minted chilli mushy peas. So much comic memorabilia to see in this quirky welcoming restaurant, toilet is fabulous especially the Darth Vader hand dryer!!...

Absolutely wonderful pie and mash. Can’t rave about it enough. Really solid meaty filling and delicious gravy and gluten-free!! Wow

Very nice pies and sundries, well recommended!! Service great too. We were all hungry and not anymore!

We were new visitors to Winchester and looked up places which were gluten free, and found Piecaramba. The menu is short just pies really, but they were really excellent, and as the non gluten half of the couple I wouldn't have known. The place is...

Super yummy food and fantastic service. The food was delicious, and I was pleasantly surprised with the great range of vegi and vegan pies! As a vegetarian I sometimes struggle to find pies that are yummy, but there was definitely plenty to chose from here!...

If you like a good pie, then this is a must. Selection was good, friendly staff and excellent value for money. With a choice of different Mash and mushy peas, gravy or liquer and many choices of fillings within the pie, this is a great...

We arrived after walking around the Winchester Christmas markets in the rain and we were freezing cold. It was lovely and warm in there, friendly staff, quick service, explained how the menus all worked. The food was to die for - just what we needed-...

Friendly staff. Excellent food, very reasonably priced. Fun decor. Loved the top trumps. Would recommend to pie lovers and nerds alike.

Piecaramba! is a unique place. Literally, they serve pie, mash and your choice of either beans or mushy peas. But it takes that simple premise to another level. The pies are all amazing. Literally had to think long and hard before choosing. This is matched...

What a find! Super warm and friendly welcome, loved all the different movie and gaming paraphernalia surrounding us, clearly great fun for all ages. And the menu was such a treat; basically you get to build your own plate. If you are a meat eater,...

You won't leave hungry from Piecaramba. Tiny restaurant serving brilliant pies with a variety of mash, mushy peas/beans and gravy. Loved the decor, service was really attentive and the pies were great as was their tea. Amazing value for money, so pleased we managed to...

Awesome pies and amazing decor! I spent way too long taking it all in….and the bathroom…has to be seen to be believed! Can’t wait to return!

Booked for my works leaving do, there were 18 of us we had a lovely meal and evening. The service was really good highly recommended

Piecaramba! catered for our 120 person wedding, serving a feast of delicious pies with mash and peas. They were professional, attentive during the planning process, and delivered exceptional pies that our guests gave us many compliments on. Would highly recommend Piecaramba! for event catering. Excellent...

Awesome. For those of you who have avoided pies for the last few years as they never quite match up to the memory of a really good pie, come here. I had the Holy Cow Pie, which was not only organic but also gluten free....

Just moved back from Ireland and was looking forward to some great pies - not a thing over there. Somewhere called Piecaramba had to deliver! At best these were terrible. Dried out, overcooked meat inside, and kids pies that had a contents of 4 beans...

First visit after reading so much about it online. We turned up without booking at around midday and were promptly seated the the relatively small but cosy restaurant. The kids loved the decor and had fun pointing out characters while we waited. The menu was...

I can’t review the food, so I’m giving a 2 simply because we were really let down by Piecaramba service yesterday. We had booked a table, all confirmed but when we arrived (on-time), our table had been given away. We were offered a table outside,...

We visited as a family during a trip to Winchester. Service was friendly and quick, the children (and adults) loved the decor - everywhere you looked there was something else to spot. Top Trumps on the table would have been a hit, but service was...

Located in trendy Parchment street a one minute walk from the main High Street is Piercaramba. This place is seriously quirky in terms of design and layout with cartoons and superheroes all over the place. The main feature is that it serves pies and only...

We visited the whilst passing through Winchester. Really are amazing pies in an awesome friendly environment! My husband is gutted we don’t live closer. Really are the best pies.

Very good indeed, been to the one in Southampton, this one is just as good, loved the decorations, service was good, pies are really good, nice mash, peas and gravy. I had a go at 2 pies, really struggled, how people can eat 3 is...

Even though we are not obviously part of the demographic that this restaurant would appeal to, being in our sixties, we really enjoyed our meal. The pies were very tasty and deep, the service was super- friendly and the price was very good. Slightly off...

What a fab place. Visited on the way home from our holiday in Dorset. Husband was bereft that he had not found a decent pie to eat and then like a true superhero I saved the day when I stumbled on this place! The pies...

Great space with lots to see and ‘The Dark Side’ loo. Pies well filled and very tasty. The liquor is not the liquor I know and love though. More like a cream sauce than traditional liquor and I would have liked to have a choice...

It was great in here. Fab for geeks like me with lots to see and talk about. Especially going into The Dark Side to use the loo! The food was very nice with the pies filled to the brim with crisp pastry and tasty filling....

After a recent diagnosis of coeliac disease I was so pleased to find a restaurant serving Gluten Free pies and with so many to choose from it was hard to pick just one. The portions were generous and the food was very tasty with great...

Our son-in-law discovered this place by simply searching for a value-for-money family lunch in Winchester. Us grandparents, with our vegetarian daughter, said s-i-l and two grandsons had a great choice of pies with mash and accompaniments. It was all very, very good and tasty. We...

The restaurant is not wry big but has a unique decoration and the bathroom is really worth a visit. Some tables have TVs with a Nintendo system that you can play. We did takeaway and they had run out of our first choices (we arrived...

Found Piecaramba on the web whilst looking for a lunch venue in Winchester, what a find! A great welcome was followed by some excellent pies. Loads of interesting things to look at too. Seems to us that they've got things just about right here and...

Excellent, what a fantastic experience will definitely be recommending to all my friends hopefully be back soon

My wife and I regularly eat in Winchester but for some reason this great restaurant had eluded us. We are so pleased to have found it, what an incredible quirky place. We booked online and promptly received a friendly confirmation. The decor is amazing, you...

Lovely pie and liquor shop on a side street. We were going to visit a chain, but so glad we supported this little independent instead. Spent a while talking to the owner about his collection of movie memorabilia, which makes for entertainment whilst waiting for...

Good quirky little pie shop. I’ve visited a couple of times you don’t have to wait long to eat and you get to play a game of top trumps while waiting.

Had supper this evening with my daughter. Service was excellent. The food was fabulous, great pastry, great pies, the mustard mash was so delicious and the onion gravy. Nice big potions and clean plates at the end. Will be back very soon.

Excellent selection of pies. mash and gravy,served in quirky surroundings and situated in a central location. Recommended.

I was lucky enough to get in here at short notice (thank you so much to the person who didn't turn up) during Eat out to help out. Great atmosphere with really friendly staff who seem to want you to enjoy your visit.....no problem there....

Dined here whilst staying in Winchester. Don't expect fine dining but do expect extremely good pies with generous fillings served with good mashed potato and gravy. It's only a small place with most of the business seemingly for takeaways but the people were very friendly...

Spent an amazing hour and a half in here. Was unsure venturing out in this new normal world we live in. We were immediately put at ease when we entered the restaurant, a warm greeting from our masked server who explained how everything works. The pie (blue steel - beef and blue cheese was perfect and without fault, crispy flaky pastry with beef in a rich sauce with blue cheese melted into it. The mustard mash again amazing and copious amounts of thick gravy made this a plate of heaven. Counted fault the whole experience. A fantastic Monday evening treat.

Great place to eat. Excellent pies of all sorts. Even a gaming machine on one table. A must for anyone looking for something different!

Great food and service . Staff were amazing and friendly really upbeat place. Would recommend and return

Called in for some lunch with my partner without a reservation. We were told we would have to be gone within an hour due to a reservation, but that we were welcome to eat. Waitress was really friendly and talked us through the menu. Food arrived quickly and was great - we will definitely be going back.

Stopped in today for some pies. Several of the tables were reserved but they snuck us in which was appreciated.The young lady that provided the service was wonderful. She took our drink orders and then our order.The meals came in a reasonable time - probably 15 minutes. However, my pie was barely warm and the mash and beans were about the same. They brought gravy on the side and I tried a few drops but it was more watery than any gravy I have had. Disappointing. The rest of the group was satisfied, just not as good as it could have been this time round.All these things are easy to fix to improve the rating. Just being honest.Fun decorating in the restaurant and even more fun washroom decor.

This little gem is amazing! Stopped off on the drive home and had the best food!! If we lived near would be there all the time! And the cherry pie for pudding was delicious!!! 😋 great place and excellent service.

Pies and comics, what more could you want? We visited with our children and had a wonderful meal. Everything was delicious - we tried Blue Steel (steak and stilton), Holy Cow (steak and ale) and Billy the Kid (steak and kidney) with various combinations of mash (you can have plain, cheese or mustard) and peas/beans. It all came with the biggest jug of onion gravy we've ever seen! Service was lovely as well. The decor delighted our teenage son, and both children loved the Star Wars-themed toilet. Shame there isn't one of these local to us - we would spend a lot of time there.
