Had Pop Pie before but first time at this location. This spot is a great place to hang out with its outdoor seating. Have to take it to-go though if weather doesn't permit. Ordered the Green Hog and Cheese pie and the Classic Chicken pie. Both were sooo delicious and flavorful. Out of the two, I think the Green Hog had the most flavor mmm. A must try! read more

Pop Pie - (D) Key Lime Pie - Slice - Desserts Near Me - Carlsbad, California

Nyla Lopez did a great job helping me with my Pop Pie order. I got 2 Pop Pies and 2 big family style kale slaws. She made up the kale slaws with expertise and we talked about how much we loved them. She gave me suggestions on where I could find flowers for my hubby's birthday. Nyla even asked me what I would be doing the rest of the day since she knew I was getting ready for my husband's birthday the next day. She was so super friendly and kind and thoughtful. I messed up by not giving her a really big tip which she deserved. I wish there was a way that I could show her how much I appreciated her really great service and kindness. I hope she will be working the next time I go to Pop Pie in Carlsbad. I love the pies and am grateful to be able to get a vegan pop pie. The kale slaw is so amazing too, especially when Nyla makes it. Thank you for this great pop pie shop and wonderful employees like Nyla. read more

We have brought both sides of the family to Pop Pie Co and everyone is obsessed with the chicken pot pies here. My family now requires me to bring some of their frozen pies when I come home to visit. I also LOVE their chocolate walnut cookies and can't recommend those enough! Love this business and really hope they one day sell gluten free pot pies so my husband can enjoy them too! read more

Pop Pie - Chicken pop pie + mashed potatoes - Desserts Near Me - Carlsbad, California

Drove down to SD to try Pop Pie with some friends and it was good, but a bit salty. Unfortunately when we got there, there was only the chicken, steak & ale, and aussie pot pies available. The chicken pot pie was your average pot pie, however the chicken was a tad bit dry and was as mentioned salty. Theres three sides that you can add to make it a combo for an extra $3.50, and I would skip the mashed potatoes. It was good, however overly salty compared to the pot pie. Service was good and theres plenty of picnic tables and tables out in front of the store next to a bunch of other stores where you can dine in. read more

Pop Pie - Desserts Near Me - Carlsbad, California

I love the concept of a pie shop that serves both sweet and savory pies, so I was very excited to try this place for the first time. It came on a Saturday and decided to stock up for the weekend, so I ordered a slice of the egg quiche, a steak and ale pie, a side of creamed corn and an agave/cream cheese hand pie for dessert all for takeout. it was all absolutely delicious. Really great filling to crushed ratio, the crust was crispy and buttery as expected and super flavorful. I was also delightfully surprised by how good their cream corn was, and it paired really well with the steak pie. The size was pretty decent too for the price, as I ended up eating the steak pie for two different meals because it was so big and hearty. The dessert hand pie was VERY tasty too, although it was kind of sugary so I ended up not finishing the whole thing. Overall, great stuff! I love that they have really unique flavors of pies, and I can't wait to go back and try more. read more

We ordered a steak and ale pie to share. It came out hot and flaky. Flavor was good and I loved the crust. There wasn't too much meat in the pie though. This was big enough to share between 2 people as an afternoon snack. For the price I wish it included a small side. read more

Finally got to check this place out. I've been to their SD locations before but having it this much closer is a definite plus. Tried the Australian beef and it was very good, the pie crust was very flaky (how I like it) and the meat was tasty. The bake/heat time was pretty quick as well. I also liked the location. Plenty of parking surrounding this little outdoor "food court" and did not have a hard time looking for seating. read more

Pop Pie - Australian Beef (yum!) - Desserts Near Me - Carlsbad, California

I loved the Chocolate Chip Walnut cookie! Like, it's one of the best cookies I've ever had. This place is a walk in, order at counter deal. Open air-ish. There is a little courtyard area to sit. The Chicken pop pie was really good. It did NOT have too many peas and carrots, which is what ruins most pop pies. The crust is flakey, buttery, and yummy. I will be back. If you are a cookie monster like me, go check it!!! read more

I love this place. One of my go-to takeout spots. The pies are very good no matter savory or sweet. Flaky, lots of meat inside, and the side dishes complement them. I recommend the secret item ask for half mashed potato gravy and half creamed corn all in 1 side dish. Goes great with the meat pies. The kale salad is great too. Quick service and always helpful. The outdoor hangout is a perfect place to enjoy for dine in. read more

This is a hard pass. Food was dry. Did not seem to get my moneys worth. It was meaty but no gravy. Small and not very filling except for all the pie crust read more

Oooooooooh la la I do enjoy a homemade chicken pot pie & this 1 was mighty tasty with nice chunks of white chicken & a flaky,buttery crust Price range is $11-$12 for a small pie. Could share. There are both savory & sweet pies.They have options for Vegetarians & Vegans too. Quiches & sausage rolls are also on their menu. And, there is a freezer of pies if you want to take a couple to go & make them at home later. I couldn't pass up on a chewy chocolate chip cookie afterwards which really sealed the deal. Friendly service. Very cool shared patio for dining. Pop Pie is tucked behind Shoots Fish & Beer in "The Cottages" on Rosevelt. Might have to try the sweet pie next visit. Oh, and check out the cute ice cream shop next door called Stella Jeans read more

not a perfect dining experience. gave 'em one more star than they probably deserve. at this location POP PIE is the new kid on the block and still working out the kinks. as you can tell from my photos, everything spent too much time in the oven. rather than tasting smokey and slightly caramelized like a good, thin-crust pizza, everything had a slightly bitter aftertaste. GBD (golden-brown-delicious) is the industry standard and at least on our visit, theirs was closer to the dry and burnt end of the spectrum. MUSHROOM and LEEK QUICHE (roasted oyster mushrooms, leeks, sun-dried tomatoes, eggs, and crème fraiche) was a hit with my meatless kid. not an enthusiastic two-thumbs up but in fairness, Jules would appear taciturn holding a winning lottery ticket. the BOSS 2.0 (applewood smoked bacon quiche with eggs, cheddar, jack cheese, chives, and spiced country potatoes) was a hot mess. picture a Denny's scramble in an overcooked pie crust instead of a small, cast-iron skillet. we also had a whole (5 slices) HAM, BACON, CHIVE, and CHEESE QUICHE (smoked ham, bacon, chives, jack and cheddar cheese, eggs, and crème fraiche). it was really quite good. partial to quiches that are light and fluffy, and POP PIE's are dense, but the flavor was there. 5" CLASSIC CHICKEN pot pie (chicken breast meat, garden vegetables, pearl onions, and creamy herb sauce). easy to see why this one's a "classic." I think Costco's clumsy version is better value and nearly as good. 5" STEAK and ALE pot pie (slow-braised beef, barley, mushrooms, carrots, and dark ale gravy) was not great. I understand and appreciate the impetus for including another classic on the menu (even after omitting the kidneys so it's more approachable for American palates) but there's a reason why British food doesn't top anybody's last meal list. will go back after they've settled in and figured stuff out. they also have a freezer full of take-and-bake pot pies and LOTS of sweet options to try. read more

A small So Cal mini chain of handcrafted pies both sweet and savory. Shares a lovely little courtyard with their sister company, Stella Jean's Ice Cream (so you know where the ala mode comes from). Love a good slice of pie so this was our evening dessert stop. Pies by slice or whole, hand pies, quiche, savory 5' pies and breakfast items. The selection on this stop had been reduced a good bit during the day so we chose the one sweet pie available that was not refrigerated-Salted Caramel Apple Crumble. This featured diced apples (three types?), an all-butter crust and some warm spices, predominantly cinnamon, and an oat crumble on top. Plus a drizzle of a caramel "sauce". The pie itself was very good. Crust was moist, the filling held together well and wonderfully appley. I will say the cinnamon flavor was very upfront, more than most pies imo. Didn't really detract from enjoyment, just and FYI. The one disappointment was the sauce on top. Barely any flavor of caramel at all. Again, did not detract but did nothing to enhance the flavor profile. I would try other items here again on a next visit without hesitation. read more

This was THE BEST key lime pie I've ever had! The girl was so friendly and helpful, and found a way to recommend almost everything in the shop. Somehow the pie wasn't overly sweet or tart but had the perfect balance and the buttery crust was amazing. I'll be going back with a bigger appetite next time so I can try the savory items and hopefully a hand pie next time! read more

IMO the pies could have some more juice or gravy in it. I got the meat pie and it was pretty dry. Flavor was good, but a bit more gravy would make it worth coming back to. read more

Go! This place is sooo good! I grew up thinking I hated pot pies, (thanks to Swanson's frozen ones) We recently moved around the corner and I can't tell you how many times we walk over there. My favorite is the Curry Veggie one, the crust is sooooo light and delicious. (ps: I don't like crust usually) Our other favorite that my husband and I share is the Green Chili! So amazing!!!! I'm also obsessed with the Keylime Pie! My husband always gets the cookie a la mode. Sometimes he goes just for that when he has a sweet tooth. read more

Newly opened and has a good selection of savory and sweet pies/quiches. They need to work out the oven situation as when it gets busy the line for heating gets long, and items do not heat up in the same way. Service is friendly and there is a good variety of options. They also have frozen pies to take home. I tried the leek and mushroom quiche, guava/cream cheese hand pie, and the apple caramel. All were yummy. They don't serve coffee or tea, but have a variety of cold drinks. No cash accepted. read more

Delicious chicken pot pie that I actually went back for THREE times last week! I normally only get the AMAZING Piescream, but decided to go for dinner and dessert. Best decision I ever made..... but now I'm totally hooked! read more

I'm obsessed with their Key Lime Pie! It's creamy and delicious. I also tried their Steak & Ale Pot Pie with Mashed Potatoes & Gravy and Creamed Corn. Their savory food is okay in my opinion. The Steak Pot Pie is a bit dry for me but it went well with the mashed potatoes and gravy. I can't get enough of their desserts though. The server was friendly and my order was ready fairly quickly. The outdoor seating area has a good amount of shaded area and heat lamps. read more

Ordered two pies to take out for dinner. Chicken Pot Pie and Hog Pie. Both very tasty but very very dry. Need to buy a side gravy to moisten. I have tasted frozen buys from the grocery store that were better for half the price. This may be a one time bad experience, but they were so tasty, I would try them again. The chicken chunks were way bigger than what I prefer in a pie. Others may like the large pieces. read more

I have no other words but to say I am obsessed! Typically eat my pie too fast to take a photo for a review haha. The green hog and cheese pie with a side of kale is my go to, but everything else is also amazing. From the breakfast menu, the breakfast the sausage rolls really hit the spot. Every sweet pie I have had has been amazing as well. Service is always very friendly and helpful. Super cute fall decorations are out right now, along with the new seasonal sweet pies! I cannot wait to come back! read more

These places are new to me, but a great idea! So many choices it crazy! Worth the try! Food & service good!!!

I was so disappointed in my chicken pie. I ordered it because it clearly said white meat chicken. I can't stomach dark meat chicken, so when I took the first bite it didn't taste right to me. I removed the top crust and it was nothing but dark meat. I brought the pie home to my husband and he asked me why I ordered a dark meat pie, and I told him that the description said White Meat! He looked into the pie and said "I don't see any white meat at all". He didn't want to eat it either. Why would this restaurant describe it as white meat when it was all gross dark meat? I will not return! read more

It's great to see Stella Jeans/Pop Pie Co expanding to North San Diego area. The area was surrounded by other kitschy shops and a shaded patio area with assorted seating. The shop itself is super small - could use better cordoning of waiting for food vs waiting to order food. We went when they had hit a busy rush, 3-4 parties. I imagine they had a food backup. The other one I went to in Costa Mesa seemed airier and a better managed workflow. read more

Great service and a good pie. The area is busy but very nice atmosphere outside. They are generous with the meat inside the pies. Would recommend. read more

For a person that wasn't a fan of pie this one is good. Place were busy they run out of pie so needed to wait till a new batch is cooked. Waiting was worth it. We had the Aussie meat and steak and ale. Finished with a swell soda. We had a blast. Pie is too big, enough for two people. It was the only food that my boyfriend willingly took home for as a to go. Place in carlsbad is like a mini market place with a cute ambiance and family hang out. read more

Very cute pie place. We tried some of the pies as well as the desserts and everything was fresh and delicious.

So great! Such a cute location convenient parking and lots of outdoor seating. The girl we spoke to was very nice and welcoming and I loved the vegan options we got, we will definitely be coming back! read more

The food is tasty and I love the concept (I love pot pies). The staff wasn't really friendly though. I think I got the Gen Z stare from the woman behind the counter. It was like pulling teeth to get her to explain things to me about the food and what was available. read more

Their chicken pot pies are good and flavorful. Friendly staff and clean environment. We enjoyed their baked apple pie too.

We have been here on many occasions and usually love the pot pies, however, today 6/7/25, we we extremely disappointed. Perhaps whoever was on the kitchen was having a bad day. We got the classic chicken pies and they were very dry, just not enough sauce! And the chicken was cut in much larger than usual pieces. Not a good experience! What a bummer! The good thing is, it's doggy friendly and there are several outdoor seating areas. Street parking & restrooms available. read more

I've been to Pop Pie in University Heights a few times but this was my first time trying this location. I was in the area for work and decided to stop by for lunch. The service was great! The staff had a great attitude and were very welcoming. They don't have any sitting inside, but have a shared dining area with the other business in the complex. I got the steak and ale savory pie and a slice of the salted caramel apple crumble pie. Both were very tasty. The savory pie was great and had a lot of crust, which I am a fan of but others might not agree. The apple pie was great warmed and wasn't too heavy on the cinnamon. read more

Great little gem, especially for a slice of pie. They also have pot pies for a meal too. Order at the counter and enjoy your pie in a great outdoor space. We were there in the evening and enjoyed the relaxed feel with the lights strung over the outdoor seating area. Great for families, friends and couples. They do have heat lamps to keep you warm if it's a cool night read more
