Had this place bookmarked for some time as BF has been on the hunt for a comparable place to his beloved meat pies from England. We were able to stop by for weekend lunch. Parking in this plaza can get crazy because Sidecar Donuts is in this plaza, right next to Pop Pie, and is pretty popular. For the time we were here eating our items, we saw quite a lot of people arriving to get some donuts next door. Anyways, onto Pop Pie! We wanted to eat our hot items right then and there, so it was good that they had some counter seating by the window. There's two tables outside too, but it was easier to dine indoors. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that they bring you the items on a metal pan that they take back and that they offer metal utensils for you to dig into their pies! They also offer a large water jug with non-single use cups, so that was another bonus. BF and I ordered 4 items to share: * sausage roll ($6) * steak and ale pie ($10.50) * classic chicken pot pie ($10) * aussie meat pie ($10) We had asked for the difference between the steak and ale versus the aussie meat, and it was that the aussie meat pie is a bit sweeter (think sorta like a sloppy joe kinda taste and consistency). I liked both and one would stand out over the other depending on what you're in the mood for (e.g. the aussie meat pie would speak to me if I was craving a sweeter savory pie that day, and the steak and ale would taste the best if I wanted a savory hearty pie). The chicken pot pie is a really solid pie here, with tender tender chicken, soft vegetables, and an excellent creamy sauce, wrapped in flakey goodness. I think out of it all, the sausage roll might be my least favorite since compared to the others, it was not as moist, but I do like the taste of the seasoning in the sausage. Even though we shared the items, I was sad I had no room to try their desserts. The key lime pie sounded really good. read more

My wife and I were really excited to come here. Had the chicken pot pie and were incredibly disappointed. Not sure if we got a bad batch but the pot pie was not creamy. Was dry and tart. Way too tart. We got 3 pies in total and all were the same. Will not come back again. Can make them better at home! read more

This is such a great breakfast place! I love starting my day with the ham, bacon, chive & cheese quiche. It's so savory and delicious especially when eating after it's been warmed up! The staff here are always so nice and welcoming. And it's always so nice to try out the things that they recommend. Been going here for over 2 years now and they never disappoint! It's also located in a great spot being in between an ice cream shop and a donut shop. It also has tons of parking nearby! Would recommend to all my friends. read more

Sometimes, excellent service; sometimes, sleepy service. It depends on your luck. -++ Classic Chicken: Perfect crust--buttery, fluffy, flaky, and tasty. Love almost everything about the pie, except the giant blocks of chewy, dry chicken meat inside. I wouldn't mind eating this without chicken inside. Could replace the chicken with mushrooms. +++ Mashed Potatoes: They've mastered this perfect mashed potato; it's a must-order for me. Tasty, perfect in texture, and most importantly, not overly salted. --+ Veggie Pot Pie: Drier than I thought. From its description, I thought it would be like a classic chicken pie without the chicken, but there is little sauce inside. Very dry, with too much dried-out broccoli and Brussels sprouts inside. Maybe just mushrooms would be fine. --- Green Hog & Cheese: Didn't like the raw jalapeno fragrance overpowering everything inside; the meat is dry. Didn't like the weird flavor either; it tasted completely different from what you read in the description. It's not attractive in its taste or texture. --- Steak & Ale: Just like the other beef pies, way too dry. Another funky tasting pie. I'll definitely pass on that one. All the crusts are perfectly done, but the meats are way too dry. They could've been more tender and juicy. Maybe the meat choices are too lean? Sometimes, the pie and mashed potatoes came out lukewarm, even though you told them that you were going to dine in. Can't wait to try their sweet pies next time. read more

Pop Pie - Excellent chicken pot pie, mashed potato and disgusting chili pork pot pie - Bakeries Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Review Title: Extra Crust Please Overall Rating: 4.5 Favorite Item of Choice: 5/5 ~Salted Caramel Apple Pie (Full or Slice) Loved the taste of the crumble on top paired with variety of apples in a nicely coated caramel sauce. After bringing it for a family occasion, it became a fan favorite! Notable Mentions: ~Chicken Pot Pie: Mini Sized Lunch Pies What strikes me most is the crust is really amazingly done. It's quite flakey while not being too soft either! Reminded me of a perfect Pâté Chaud (Puff Pastry). Everyone was really good except a few pieces of chicken were super dry unfortunately. I'd love to come back to try some of the other pies. Vibes & Parking: ~Really great place for a quick lunch, picking up pies for a party, or even just cause you love pie. Parking is not too shabby here, but definitely busy with all the other awesome places in the plaza. Overall great place to try out in Costa Mesa for fellow pie lovers! read more

I Stopped in on Thanksgiving to pick up a pie around 11:30am. They had limited selection which was to be expected so I decided to go with what I thought was the best pie available. It was their Cranberry Apple Ginger Crumble pie. I was told they had to charge me per slice for the whole pie making it more expensive ($48) but I accepted that with the expectation to have a good tasting pie. Unfortunately me and my guests were disappointed with a pie that tasted like it was left open inside a fridge for a week. We pulled only 2 slices out that we did not finish because of the bad taste and had to throw away the rest. After contacting the store the next day because they closed at 2pm on thanksgiving, to ask for a replacement or refund, I was told by the store manager they do not have authority to refund or exchange my pie. Instead to contact their corporate representative Which is info@poppieco.com for anyone else that has future issues at the 17 St Newport Beach location. After emailing my experience to their representative the owner "Steven Torres" replied to me expressing his apologies regarding my experience and assured me by ruling out having a freezer or fridge tasting pie could not be the case because they make all their pies fresh daily. Well im sorry but I'm not someone to complain unless theirs a good reason and my pie tasted bad and I have guests who also agreed. His offer of exchange was to gift me 4 slices of pie to compensate me for the bad experience I guess because we partially consumed 2 slices of the original pie?! Well I thought I'll take what I can get if that's all he's offering and replied with my acceptance of his offer. Unfortunately I have not received a reply after 6 days of waiting on his reply on how I can receive my 4 slices of pie so unfortunately a bad review was made because of this. Even though my 2 other experiences there were positive there. Buyer beware! read more

Pop Pie - Screenshot of the amount charged to my credit card. - Bakeries Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Been here a few times so this review is overdue. Good portion for the individual pies, the flavors are great, the pastry is buttery and flacky as it should, and the server is friendly. They also sell take-home pies with raw dough for $1 less per. My party got the Chicken Pot Pie and Steak and Ale, along with a Cold Brew. I enjoyed the chicken filling but my party said the chicken was overcooked. The Steak and Ale had large soft chunks of steak, very pleasant to the mouth. The Cold Brew was too sour. I did not try their pies or ice cream (the ice cream shop is connected to the restaurant), but it's hard when a popular donut place (Sidecar) is adjacent to the restaurant. I drive out to this plaza only because these two (Pop Pie and Sidecar) are destination shops. read more

Just because a restaurant's food is pricey doesn't make the food good. I didn't enjoy the taste.

Love the pies here, they have always been the best. And today, I found out they have the best and nicest employees too. Went to pick up 2 pre-ordered holiday pies; husband accidentally dropped the pumpkin pie on the way out. Two of the employees helped us with the mess, and then replaced the pumpkin pie free of charge. I didn't catch the names of the employees, but wanted to give them a shout out and say thank you so much for all of the help and kindness, and amazing pies! read more

Visited about the 9th time..each visit not as pleased as the previous in subtle measure... This time , the employees were lackluster and unable to answer a few basic inquiries re ingredients.. The young lady helping me had dropped something on the floor twice and each time she picked up the article and brushed the Palm Of her hand on the floor she would only wipe her hand off against the front of her top .. I was thankful the young man who was her coworker reached in the case and brought out my three pop pies!!! Now... the beef was extremely salty, the chicken had desecrated peas and the curry was bitter .. similar to a gritty bitter taste.three out of three!!' Thank you read more

my husband and I were craving an apple crisp last week on a cold night. So we called around and found this place. They warmed it up and added a scoop of ice cream and it was absolutely delicious. We split it and it hit the spot. I would return again for sure. read more

Listen.. pot pies are one of my trauma foods (Thanks dad) and I've avoided them for years. Today I stumbled across Pop Pie and after speaking to Nick - I thought you know what why not heal my childhood trauma on a casual Saturday afternoon. Let me tell you, this was probably the best food I've had in a very long time. I could not recommend the Green Hog more. I also want to give Nick a huge shout out too because talking to him felt like I was talking to a friend. He's so friendly and inviting. 15/10 type of person read more

Worth the wait and price (for most of the full pies and single slices) I recommend the chicken pot pie and key lime pie. The Guava and cream pie is better at McDonalds Only 4 stars as the Pies are pretty small, and not enough to fill you up. read more

Pop Pie - Key Lime Pie Slice - Bakeries Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Order at the counter and enjoy your pie at one of the few seats or take to go. We had the steak and ale pie, aussie meat pie, sausage roll, and key lime pie. Steak and ale was somewhat bland, but the aussie meat was very flavorful. The Aussie meat pie tasted higher quality and fresher than the fast-food ones in Australia. Crusts were nicely buttery and flaky. The sausage roll was disappointing as their meat mixture was crumbly, dry, and overly seasoned with herbs. Key lime pie was fantastic but the crust was slightly too thick making it hard to slice through. Will definitely get the Aussie meat and key lime pie next time. Pop Pie is a cute little spot, but I wish they would clean their tables off. When we arrived, there wasn't a single diner, but each table had crumbs strewn all over. read more

I love a good pie especially a savory pie so I was excited to try pop pie and their chicken pot pie which is a favorite in our family. Each pie is $12 and it's roughly 5" wide at the top, 4" where the filling actually starts, going down to 3" at the bottom. For an additional $4 you can have a side of mashed potatoes or creamed corn. The pie is delicious. The crust is flakey, there are a few large chunks of chicken, I would say roughly 1/4 piece worth of chicken breast with pearled onions, peas and carrots with gravy. But to me this wasn't large enough for a meal and adding in mashed potatoes or creamed corn as a side would only serve to be used as a cheaper filler since the pie itself is rather small. The price point is steep for the size IMO. This should be an $8 pot pie with all things considered. For $12 I would say the sides need to be given not additional. Overall if you want a snack, by all means the savory pies are great. I don't think on their own it's enough to say it was a meal. read more

My boyfriend's dad's favorite food is pie, so for Father's Day this year we decided to treat him to 8 different types of pie! We are celebrating Father's Day out of town, which is why I was thrilled that Pop Pie carries frozen meat pies that you can take home and bake yourself! We ordered everything through their website's East online ordering system, and our order was ready for pick up within 15 mins! We ordered their 5 pack of assorted frozen savory pies (you can choose whatever combination of flavors you'd like), and a few different slices of their sweet pies to sample them. You can also order full sized sweet pies, I believe you just need to call ahead for availability. The frozen savory pies traveled super well in a freezer bag, are wrapped & labeled individually, and can be baked in a standard oven defrosted or from frozen. Instructions on how to bake are printed on each pie. Baking at home was easy peasy and the crusts came out beautifully golden brown and flaky! 1 single pie is plenty of food for 1 person, or shared between 2 people if you also have additional sides. We roasted our own veggies at home. All the savory pies were delicious but this is my personal ranking of all the pies we tried: 1. Chicken Pot Pie (we got 2 of these) 2. Green Hog & Cheese 3. Aussie Meat Pie 4. Steak & Ale Their sweet pies are a must try, and I can't wait to try new rotating flavors! We tried the strawberry rhubarb, caramel apple, coconut cream and key lime. Each pie was superb! I would totally order an entire caramel apple pie to eat by myself next time Can't wait to come back and try Pop Pie fresh in person! I'm especially excited to try their famous coffee with my slice of pie next time I'm there. read more

The pies are amazing! Cant go wrong with the chicken pot pie. And the apple crumble pie is fantastic. 100% recommend!

Came here yesterday because I was craving something sweet and Pop Pie seriously hit the spot! My friend had recommended it and mentioned that they serve Stella Jean's ice cream so I had a feeling I wasn't gonna be disappointed. Conveniently located between Stella Jean's and Sidecar, Pop Pie is soooo cute! They have a great variety of sweet and savory pies, as well as random other desserts and drinks. My boyfriend and I got the guava cream cheese hand pie, steak ale pie, and an iced matcha with vanilla rose syrup. Everything was SO GOOD! I really loved the size of the hand pie; it satisfied my sweet craving but didn't make me way too full. Can't wait to come back to try their key lime pie and chicken pot pie! read more

Food was ok. When I was Australia years ago I had pie face and that was so good. I was hoping that this would come close to it but it wasn't. First bite and I can see the difference. It's quite dry and doesn't have the gravy and tender steak I had expected. Service: the front counter person was having a bad day or something but when I was standing there they kept walking in and out without saying anything to me. After awhile they finally came out with this wtf can I get you like my presence was a bother. It was night and day attitude compare to sidecar where the person helping me was so sweet and friendly. read more

Situated right next to Sidecar, it's hard to skip this spot if you're grabbing doughnuts and coffee. Plenty of parking available as well. They have a variety of baked and frozen pies. Majority of the pot pies have meat, but their curry veggie option is my favorite. The size of their pies is perfect for two meals if your hungry (lunch and dinner or my favorite, dinner and breakfast). If you're starving, one pie will suffice. The service is always great there. Everyone is so nice and if you need help deciding, their opinions really help. They have savory pies, quiche, sweet hand pies, dessert pies, and coffee. I love that the pot pies are warm and ready to go. They're the perfect temperature if you need to drive 10 min or so back home. The hand pies are also great to satisfy that sweet tooth or for a heavier/sweeter breakfast. A great go to spot if you're looking for a takeaway lunch or dinner that isn't a typical sandwich. read more

I have tried steak & ale , aussie meat , guava cream cheese , and lemon curd & mixed berry. Imo the aussie is a 5/5 steak 3/5 and both the dessert a 4/5. This is the first time I tried a pot pie and now I'm a believer. read more

5/5: Aussie pie: tender, flaky, this is the best. 5/5: horchata matcha with soy milk: amazing! Excellent combination. Try this! Who knew matcha is so versatile? 5/5: bacon ham leek cheese quiche: amazing fluffy eggs, and excellent seasoning on the thick crust 4/5: super ale forward. Yummy, I'm glad I tried it, but won't return for it. 3/5: guava creme cheese pie: filling was excellent, but the crust was off: underbaked? 1/5: sausage roll: crust was over done; filling was bland. Service was quick and friendly. I would come back to try: curry pie and green hog pie. Parking is difficult, be safe. read more

I LOVE POT PIE! Nothing like a comforting chicken pot pie. Loved this little store in Costa Mesa. They have a good variety of pies, I went with the Classic Chicken Pot Pie and the Aussie Meat Pie. My favorite was the classic chicken, but the Aussie meat pie was also good. The mash potatoes with gravy were heavenly. For desert I got the Guava Cream Cheese Hand Pie. Honestly, was a little disappointed in this. I would try another desert next time. Overall, really like this spot. You can order hot pie ready to eat OR get some frozen pies to enjoy at home. FYI, Very small spot, only a few tables outside. read more

Had the Curry / Veggie pot pie and cream corn on the side. It was very tasty! Service was fast and the quick interaction I had with the person was pleasant.

I stumbled across this place by accident. AMAZING!!! This is a great idea. They have sweet, savory and even vegetarian options. They're mostly known for their chicken pot pies. I had a bit of a sweet tooth so I chose a Salted caramel apple pie slice. I was very tempted to get the strawberry rhubarb crumble... But I went for the popular. They had one of the best crusts I have ever tasted. Buttery, flaky and crunchy. I honestly ate it a day later and it was still in great shape. The apples were nice and firm. The Carmel drizzle was not overpowering. I will definitely be back. read more

it was AMAZING. i got the classic chicken pot pie and a side of creamed corn. they do NOT skimp on the chicken. it was soo creamy and smooth on the inside. the crust was flakey and buttery and not too thin which i like. it had a nice crisp to it and the pie was still very hot when i got it, smoking hot. creamed corn was alright. i wish it was a bit of a thicker consistency though what really got my attention was the customer service. idk if shes the owner but she literally knew her customers' names when they walked in. this is a small place and i got it togo but ate on one of the stools and she still checked up on us. so nice and attentive. whoever she is, she takes pride in her job and the quality of the food was phenomenal too. it is difficult to find businesses these days who truly value and love their line of work. i know alot of reviews say that the key lime pie is good. i think i just dont like the flavor bc i couldnt even finish it tbh. i think it was a texture thing for me. the salted apple was sooo good though. BTW the parking plaza is horrible, good luck finding a spot read more

A wonderful little restaurant nestled in the heart of Costa Mesa! I needed to run an errand in CM with my family and stopped for lunch. I found Pop Pie on Yelp and felt it would meet the varied dietary needs in our family. I was right, and as my dad noted, "I wouldn't mind coming back to this place!" The pot pies might look small, but the food is filling and delicious! The pot pies are packed with food and not just sauce, as you'll find in a lot of pot pies these days. The pie crust is absolutely heavenly! There are items for vegetarians and even your pickiest of eaters can find something they like. I had the breakfast pot pie, while my family had the Classic Veggie Pot Pie and the Classic Chicken Pot Pie. We were all satisfied with the meals we recieved and two of us had leftovers. The Classic Chicken Pot Pie does have quite a bit of pearl onions, so if that's not your thing, you might want to try something else. I haven't even mentioned the best part-- dessert! Unfortunately, no pictures of that, as we scarfed it down. My dad said the Key Lime Pie slice was one of the best he's ever had. I had a seasonal flavor called Pear, Huckleberry, and Chai Spice crumble. I found the chai flavoring to overpower the fruit a bit, but it was still good! There is a ton of free (!) parking in a large lot. The folks working at Pop Pie were wonderful and patient as my family asked nine million questions about the menu. I also love that there is outside dining! read more

I've eaten all these delicious pies from the original shop from San Diego, and it's such blessing that this cafe is the perfect shop to stumble across in Costa Mesa during COVID time. Nothing makes staying at home better than delicious comfort food baked fresh with a mouthwatering scent. The alluring crust comes flaky with puff pastry on top, and smells amazing with butter on every part that makes you want to savor every inch of the savory pie. You can't go wrong with the Classic Chicken Pot Pie, but definitely explore the more peculiar choices when the season comes around! read more

Before we arrived I assumed the pies were much bigger. They ended up about the size of a large hamburger. That was more than enough to fill me up though. The service was really good even though it was almost closing time. This place is nestled between a doughnut shop and a ice cream place so it's perfect for a full course meal I wanted to try a coffee but it was too late in the evening for caffeine for me. Come down and try this place. It's back in the corner behind another building so look for the signs on the street. read more

Great pot pies with lots of variety. I love picking up the frozen pies for an easy weeknight meal.

Came here to celebrate Pi Day and it was a great experience! Here's what we got: Savory Pies: Smoked Duroc Pork + Red Curry Pot Pie Steak & Ale Pot Pie Sweet Pies: Coconut Cream Peanut Butter and Jelly I loved how unique and delicious each pie was! My favorite pies were the Smoked Duroc pork + red curry pie and the Coconut cream pie. The worker there actually recommended the coconut cream because she said it was her personal favorite and now it's one of mine, so shoutout to that worker! It's been a really long time since I've had pot pies and Pop Pie Co. has made me fall in love with pot pies. As far as the sweet pies, I've always loved them and their coconut cream pie was just perfect. It wasn't too sweet and was very light and flavorful. The peanut butter and jelly pie was a Pi Day special, but it was just okay to me because I felt the peanut butter was too sweet and overwhelming. I'd definitely come back to try their other pot pies and sweet pies though! Highly recommend checking this place out for a delicious meal or dessert! read more
