Best pies in Auckland in New Zealand

"When in Kingsland, there's really only one stop to make for gourmet pies - The Fridge. Recipient of many, many awards, it's righteously popular and a great place for a coffee too. Must try pie: Bacon & egg."

"Muzzas Pies is an Auckland institution. Located in Howick Village, this smallish shop has one of the best range of quality pies out East. A local's favourite for many years, Muzzas is always right there on my list of top pie spots. Their slogan is "Buy one or we'll both starve!". Must try pie: Mexican style with chill."

"This was my must-stop pie shop when I worked in Parnell. Ok, it's much more than pies here - awesome coffee, panini sandwiches, cakes and more - but it's the pies that kept me coming back. Must try pie: Curried lamb shank"

"A fairly new addition to the Auckland pie scene, it's not just the award-winning pies that are awesome here - check out the range of cakes and pastries, and the great coffee. Must try pie: Mince & gravy"

"My local bakery when I lived on the Shore, I never had to go far to get my hands on a great pie. A traditional local bakery, there's a good range of filled rolls and sandwiches here, plus lots of sweet treats (try the apple turnovers). Must try pie: Steak & cheese."
