Pieminister in Southwark

Lazy. Didn’t have the pie I wanted, no gravy, no peas, wasn’t offered a fork, and the pies lid wasn’t attached. Pies are just bought in anyhow and though good you can’t help thinking there’s no effort involved other than warming them up.

Be warned - there is no mash or gravy!!! I love pieminister and was so excited to take my husband there for his first ever pie experience but I guess we will have to wait until next time in the UK. Seriously, what kind of a pie shop doesn't have gravy?! Love you guys but I was devastated 😭😅

Super delicious pies! They look quite small at first, but are very filling. The pies were simply delicious. The only drawback is that there is nowhere to sit as it is a stall at the brought market. Vegan and vegetarian pies are offered

Tried the Kate & Sidney, and Moo and Blue. Both were warm and comforting, amazing pies. Would recommend

Our first pie in London, and was a very decent one! 🥧 didn’t know what to expect to be honest, and was excited to try one of their famed dishes. Ordered the fungi mushroom, and thought the filling was fairly generous - we didn’t love the sauce though, but it’s probably just us as it’s some form of cream based sauce. While it’s not a dish that we love and enjoy, it’s a good pie for a first try.

Came in to Pieminister on a gloomy Wednesday and have had a brilliant time. The food from Sam was FANTASTIC but the service from Merrick was even better. Such a lovely atmosphere, felt like we were welcome there. Definitely will be back again!

Arrived at the Borough market without knowing what to expect. Got a good feeling about this meat pie stand and gave it a try 😍😍😍 Oh my goodness, their moo pie was warm and delicious. Highly recommended.

I ordered a beef ale pie and it was very delicious! But it is recommended that at least 3 people share the meal. It is quite large. Otherwise, there are still a lot of things you want to eat at the pineapple market! I won’t be able to eat it

Super delicious pies! You can't get enough. ❤️

BRILLIANT! The Moo&Blue pie is everything that you want to eat before your last breath. Amazing combination of stewed meat and matured cheese in a unique pastry piece. Try it!

Had the steak and Stilton. Was ok. Meat was tender but the Stilton flavour was too subtle in my opinion. If you like Stilton or blues in general, then you want to taste the funk! Also slightly under seasoned, but this was probably due to the pastry being a bit lacklustre. It was thin & crisp for sure, but not at all buttery or moorish like a good pie pastry. When I lived in london years ago, this was a must visit at borough market, but after my visit today, I’d be happy to skip it. I swear there also used to be a mash/pea/gravy offering but I may be confusing this with something else. I also dislike the lack of sauce offering. I think a small dollop of sauce can really elevate a pie as it adds an element of tart and sweet to what is otherwise a very savoury experience. I’m definitely not a ‘put sauce on everything’ person, but I think for most people, a little sauce with a pie is a must-have, especially when unfortunately, the pie falls short on its own. Guy behind the counter was also pretty gruff. Don’t expect a parade or the red carpet but a vague air of ‘we appreciate your business’ is always appreciated.

Good pie. Crispy crust, rich and flavorful filling.

Great vegetarian ‘steak’ pie with jackfruit!! Maybe one of the best food we had in the UK so far 🤷🏻‍♀️

The savoury meat pies here are very good. We enjoyed the moo and blue pie with steak and stilton. They can serve cold pies for 5 or hot pies for 6 and it is one of the better valued items at the market.

If you go late, around 3pm, everything is sold out and there is only mushroom pie. But it has a lot of mushrooms and is delicious.

Ordered online, tiniest serving of mash ever produced about tea teaspoons worth

The heidi vegetarian pie was below average. Vegetables tasted half cooked. Kidney and steak seemed better.

Found 2 hairs in my Moo & Blue pie, otherwise good

Excellent pies, to try something typical English. In our case, a Stilton pie (meat and touches of blue cheese) and a very good steak/kidney. The only thing, somewhat uncomfortable, is the small number of places to sit, but it is a matter of the place.

Buena opción para reponer fuerzas mientras se visita Londres. Los pasteles estaban muy ricos y el comerlos en el mismo mercado fue una buena experiencia. Muy recomendable para empaparte un poco más de la vida londinense (aunque había más turistas que lugareños).

Had the chicken, ham and leek pie hot. It was excellent. Filling was comfort food, fresh and tasty. Crust was crispy and the structure held up to the filling. Recommended.

The pies from here are always delicious and very filling 😍 they are always worth a visit!

Great little pie stall, selling hot & cold pies. The staff were super friendly & very helpful. Bought one for lunch.... then bought 4 to take home for the family!

Had the Beef Steak and Ale pie at Pieminister in Borough Market and wow, what a great surprise! The flavors are rich and earthy, hitting the spot with just the right amount of filling. It’s served warm, making it the perfect comfort food. No frills, just really good pie. If you’re in the area, run to try it.Definitely recommended for a hearty, satisfying meal.

This little pie was delicious. Only £5.50, and it has plenty of filling and nice crispy crust. It's just a little stall in the middle of the market, so it's easy to miss.. but if you do find it, grab one and you won't regret it.

Kiosk located in the brough market. We took a normal pie and a gluten-free one. The staff is friendly and very helpful. The pies were really excellent, fragrant and succulent. We would have eaten more 😂 . Definitely worth trying, recommended for gluten intolerants.

Small stall in Borough Market just under the arch overlooking the central area of ​​the market. Very good pies and rich in filling. Possibility to buy them hot or at room temperature. Payment by card and low prices

During my 4-day trip to London, the highlight was definitely the amazing pies I discovered at Pieminister . The execution was spot-on, and I couldn't get enough of fungi chicken hot pie. Totally recommend it! :)

Very delicious pies with gluten free options.

Very friendly and the "Not bacon" pie hit the spot for a vegetarian.

had the funghi chicken and had them warm it up, it was so good!!

I waited a whole year to try a Pieminster pie. I went to the Burough Market location and the staff was awesome. Even though I got there early I was treated with respect and they let me know when the hot pies would be ready. I had the Moo and I tell you it was delicious. I traveled from Topeka, Kansas to try one and I can't wait to get back to London to get another.

Tried this at Borough Market and it was delish!

Calda o fredda? Io l’ho provata calda ed è davvero deliziosa! Una specialità britannica che dovete assolutamente provare se siete turisti a Londra…! Noi siamo andati allo stall del Borough Market (una chicca da visitare) Pagata meno di 6€

We were bumbling round the market when we stumbled upon this quaint lil pie stand, tucked away under the arches. HOLY MOOOOOO! I wasn’t even hungry and this pie forced its way into my stomach. I tried the Blue&Moo after a recommendation from a nice Italian man and his kind hearted short haired colleague. The pie has shot to the the top of my pie list, it’s just soooooo comforting, warm and cheesy. My partner is vegan and tried the Mooless Moo- She had to go to bed early because she was so happy. The price for one of these warm pockets of joy is unbelievably reasonable. Just do it, get yourself under the arches and crack on, I will be returning and bringing my family.

Beste Pie ever! Wie hatten Kevin - in warm! Könnte ich täglich essen! 😍😍

Love this place. Discovered them when I was in Bristol a few years back and SO glad they have a spot in London. Their gluten free beef and GF ale, and their chicken pork leek pies are both delicious and I wish I could take a dozen back to the states with me. And for anyone without an oven (in a hotel) - a few min in the microwave and the pie is ready to eat!

This was my first pie in the UK so I wasn't sure what to expect. The pies really hit the spot so perfectly! I tried two. The mooless moo jackfruit pie was a great vegetarian option. Get it warm because it's worth that extra fifty cents and the pies wouldn't be as good if cold. The moo pie steak and ale option was my favorite. Since all pies are the same price at £5 you should try a couple. If you're hungry two or three will fill you up.

Best meat pie I've ever had. The outer layer is crispy and airy and the meat is so flavorful. I got the steak pie and would love to try other flavors. 5 pounds for one pie. You can get them warm of cold to bring home.

Ottime con scelta variegata di Pie vegan, prezzo molto onesto.

These pot pies are AMAZING. The variety of choices were so fun and the flavors were harmonious. This is the perfect quick bite while in Borough Market. You don't want to miss this!

The crust was ok, but the beef was sagy with weird spices

Pieminister is a chain of pie shops that originated in Bristol, England. They have a number of locations in London, including one in Borough Market. The Borough Market location is a small stall for takeaway pies. The pies at Pieminister are made with fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. They offer a wide variety of pies, including both traditional and more creative options. Some of the signature pies include the Steak and Ale Pie, the Chicken and Mushroom Pie, and the Vegetarian Pie. Overall, the pies are yummy, filling, and good value for money for the location, and a great food to munch on whilst roaming around Borough Market.

Delicious pies for a fantastic price. Only downside is that they don't offer any sides like they do in their restaurants.

Really nice pies and great service!

Yummy steak and ale pie. HIGHLY recommended

During my visit to London, I tried their pie at the Borough Market location. It was so good! A few days later, I went back there before my evening flight so that I could leave London in peace. Their pie is that good! Definitely give it a try, be warned that you may get addicted!

Rude service. It’s amazing how people can ruin your experience in the service industry. Just be respectful; especially in a known tourist area.

Wir hatten hier 2 verschiedene Pie's auf dem Streetfood Market. Pie' s waren super lecker und sehr schmackhaft. Unbedingt mal hingehen

Who dares to say British food is bad must try these pies. Because they'll kill you in the best way. The top is crusty, and the filling is full of flavour. We bought the beef and Stilton one and is marvellous, the beef is tender, the Stilton is just at that point where you can feel it without being overwhelming.

Very good pies, with a crispy top and generous fillings.

Un sogno di pie!! Avevamo paura fosse secca ma invece la farcitura è succosa, la carne squisita. Insomma, sognerò questa pie fino al prossimo viaggio a Londra! Prezzo incredibilmente accessibile, circa 5£!!!

Brought some pot pies back home to Montreal after a visit to Borough Market. They held extremely well on the plane and they are honestly the best pot pies I’ve ever eaten, I wish I had brought back more!!!!

Not worth the price or hype in our opinion. Severely disappointed boyfriend who LOVES pie and mash. We travelled there on train over an hour for subpar food. The tikka pie filling is decent but the rest of the plate ruined it. My boyfriend left half of his food. The mash was runny and watery, the gravy was weird and didn’t even taste like gravy, couldn’t figure out what was in it.

I can't help loving these pies. Like...have not had a bad one. Always the first thing I eat when taking someone to the market for the first time. Meat, no meat, whatever, they're all good.

(2023.03.05 방문) 맛있었습니다! 생각보다 크고 양도 많아서 한끼 식사로도 가능할 것 같아요.

It’s in the borough market Google says it’s open. Impossible to find and it’s not opened.

Pie davvero buona, Kate&Sidney approvata a soli 5£

I used to love pieminster pies, and then became a vegan and though pies were a thing of the past. Great range of vegetarian and vegan, and you can pick up from here hot or cold.

Really nice pie! Be aware though, no gravy or anything additional.

First time we tried the pie here in London and we were really satisfied with this one. They have plenty different flavors and we tried three of them (the best one the British beef with Ale). Good price for the size of the portion.

Crusty, piping hot and delicious. Make this a must stop when you trawl through borough market.

Amazing steak and ale pie. Friendly staff. Highly recommended for someone looking for a pie.

An excellent pie. The pastry is crisp and the filling is generous. The meat is of good quality. Nothing to dislike.

Very disappointing no taste pie and as this is the only product simply terrible place.

Really cool little pie stand at Borough Market! The pies were more than affordable (4,5£) and reeeeally hefty! Those were some chonky heavy pies! Definitely worth trying, and worth the price! I took the basic chicken and mushroom. I wish I could have tried all of them, but eating even one whole is a challenge! I'm definitely coming back for more!

They don’t seem to have an actual restaurant at borough market anymore according to Google it’s permanently closed. However they have a stall selling either warmed pies you could take away, or cold pies which you can take home. My mum and I went got the pie with Stilton, not what we ordered actually but it was amazing. Great quality beef, very tasty and excellent pastry. We were super impressed, highly recommend!

Gran elaboració i varietat de Pie!!

Incredibly delicious pies at Pieminster. Got the beef and stilton - would highly recommend!

Súper nice pies! I recommend to order motherhood, with all the side dishes (all incredible) - 10£. I want to try all of them!

Très bonnes tartes/ tourtes à environ 4 pounds. Nous avons testé bœuf, rognons et bière. Excellente et servie avec des petits couverts. Ne remplace pas un repas complet mais cale bien.

Pie crust - 2.5 stars The pie crusts have an alright texture but no taste - they probably use shortening rather than butter and there isn't enough salt. Jackfruit pie - 3.25 stars Loved that they had jackfruit as a vegetarian filling but this wasn't very flavourful. Mushroom and asparagus - 4 stars Great umami filling but same comment about the lacklustre crust. Beef and stilton - 3 stars Filling was flavourful and the beef went well with the stilton but couldn't make up for the crust.

Gluten free mooless moo. Yes. All of it. Cannot recommend enough.

Has some gluten free pies but they are cold. Would be nice if they had a separate space in the oven for them. Was nice though.

From Seattle, WA to London for vacation. We had trouble figuring out where to find a good pub, after getting lost we went back towards our hotel so we stopped into this place. What a wonderful staff, we felt welcome, had a nice beer they recommended and a pie, it was delicious.

Seems to be nice, but we never found it in the market !

Friendly staff. And the pies look good. Bought back for my kids and they love them.

Stall a bit hard to spot within the market, but they serve the best pies! I had the MOO (classic Steak and Ale), very tasty!

Selected the free range chicken and portobello/chestnut mushroom pie. Wasn’t any in oven but wasn’t a problem as not eating straight away. Had it cold in hotel room and it was soooooooo delicious 😋 Perfect pastry and filling,looking forward to one of the Xmas specials when I’m back in London Borough Market in December 👍👍

Average pies, terrible staff. Borough market has way better options available. Avoid.

Great pies, veggie or meat they are delicious, never been disappointed. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Tried a chicken, bacon, and tarragon pie. It was OK, but nothing particularly amazing. I guess the pie crust was nice and crispy, but in terms of flavor it was definitely 3 stars but no more. Maybe I picked wrong. :(

Muy buena opción para quitarte la gusa.... no los calientan, por lo que lo ideal es llevar a casa, pero también están buenos frios

Delicious and fresh pies in the middle of Borough Market! We tried the “Free Ranger” with mushy peas, mashed potatoes, and gravy! The portions were generous, and the flavors divine! Highly recommend!

Nice pies but unfortunately they were let down by being cold. We asked if they could be heated but we were told they were no allowed to do so

If you find yourself in the borough market do yourself a favor and stop here for a pie

On the edge of Borough Market. Really interesting choice of handmade traditional pies. The Mowbray is stunning.

This is the second visit to the pie minister. My son like the pie . Only problem is they are cold . You hear them at home. My son like them cold .so it is not a problem.

Love this place.the pie was very good

Pies are tasty, the crunchiness of the dough is just perfect. Wide variety for all diets, both me and my brother liked them. I'd pay 0,5 pounds more for 30 seconds in the microwave, they surely taste even better if they're not refrigerated. :-).

Wandering around Southwark and stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant tucked away in Gabriel's Warf, had the "Moo & Blue" steak and Stilton pie, minted mushy peas & cheesy mash, all topped with delicious gravy and crispy onions. Had to ask the chap that served me what his music playlist was as being a 40 something guy the music took me straight back to my childhood, dancing in the living room with my parents to Rocksteady reggae! An altogether fantastic experience, great food, a full tummy and fond memories.

Love this place. The pies are amazing!

The gravy was a little overpowering, and the mash was bland, but the pie was pretty good!

We specifically went searching for Pieminister during our final day of a trip to London. Located in the amazing Borough Market, we almost walked right by the stall they were set up in. Prices were fair for the portion, so if you're looking for something to stick to your stomach for about 5 pounds then this place is for you. I also imagine that they travel pretty well. However, while we planned to get 2 for immediate consumption and 2 more for the road we decided not to get the additional 2. The pies weren't bad, they just were... that's it. They just were. Neither good nor bad. In fact, while I can tell you that we had two different pies I cannot remember which ones we got. They were that memorable. Borough Market is an amazing place with many food choices. If we went back we would probably eat somewhere else.

Not really into meat pies but when in the UK, you must have some pies. We tried the traditional braised beef in ale pie. We took it to go so we didn’t get to try the one w gravy, mash and peas. The pie was still good. Crust was flacks and buttery and the meat soft and rich! A great pie indeed

This place got the best pie in London. It is delicious and has a perfect size! I recommend getting the Moo pie.

Perfetto per una pausa pranzo veloce ed economica (per gli standard londinesi). Non si può non mangiare una "pie" a Londra, e qui le fanno veramente bene. Consigliatissimo!

En la parte posterior del caos que es Borough Markets, deberías poder encontrar el puesto de 'Pieminister'. Si al principio no lo encuentras. . . seguir mirando . . .Crecí en Engerland y ahora vivo en 'Oz' y 'pies' son una parte muy importante de mi herencia. . . y la dieta!Asi que . . . toma mi palabra para ello . . Estas son las MEJORES tartas que probablemente consumirás.Todos los pasteles tienen nombres 'pensativos'. . . hay un pastel llamado 'Kevin', uno llamado 'Heidi'. . . y el más obvio 'Kate y Sidney'. (OK ... "Kevin" es champiñones, tomate, vino tinto, cebollas y tomillo ... "Heidi" es queso de cabra, batata y espinaca ... y más evidente "Kate y Sidney" es la jerga de Cockney Rythmin para bistec y riñon.)Además del 'K & S', mi favorito es el 'Moo'. . . Carne de res británica y cerveza. Hay tartas para los que comen carne, tartas para vegetarianos, tartas para veganos. . . y empanadas sin gluten.No tienes excusa. . . bajar allí . . Ábrete camino a través de Borough Markets. . . hazte con el mejor pastel que probablemente comas y gélmelo en los escalones de la catedral de Southwark.Oh si . . . y un poco de salsa y puré. . .

Always go here for pie and mash (, mushroom and asparagus) wh n visiting guys hospital. I've only just realised it's called pie Minister, for some reason I always read it a pie Meister hehe..anyway it's good pie and mash,just wish you'd put the gravy in the middle not in the corner,that's my only moan and it's being picky. 😁
