    Parking was a bit cramped but we were able to find a spot quickly. It's located next to Side Car donuts. We tried 3 of their pies, each were $12-$2.5 each Chicken - classic and prob my favorite one. Lots of meat inside. Wish there were more potatoes inside Steak and ale- you can really taste the ale, pretty good but chicken is better Butter chicken - which is part of their rotating pie. Tastes exactly like what you think it would: butter chicken in pie crust Everything was pretty good. Decent size and very filling. I shared with my boyfriend and we didn't finish the three pies.

    Yum yum for my Tum tum!

    Pot pies are my comfort food...always has been It's a struggle to find a good pot pie...especially because a lot of the times people call soup with a puff pastry top a pot pie...yeah...no...that's not how that works... In my book, a pot pie has to have crust on the bottom and the top The good news is that Pop Pie delivers! They have a large selection of flavors and the service was very good here. I felt bad for the worker...I had a lot of questions...but you know, I needed to make sure it was what I wanted! I tried the traditional chicken pot pie, as a control. Hot, fresh and delicious, this pot pie is a real hit with my tummy! There was plenty of large chunks of chicken and gravy to make it a perfect blend of textures I will definitely be back to try additional flavors...and dessert!

    Service: 5/5. We were greeted immediately by a young man at the counter, who was also helpful with recommendations. They have a variety of heated and cold pies, and offer to heat up the cold ones if you wish. It's not just about the filling. The pastries (crusts and crumbles) are so integral to a good pie, and Pop Pie does all of them well. STEAK & ALE: 4/5. Surprisingly herbaceous and extremely hearty. My partner and I ate this around 11AM and were still full enough that we skipped dinner. KEY LIME: 4/5. Starts mellow, then has a strong acidic finish. SALTED CARAMEL APPLE: 4/5. Didn't really get salted caramel, but still really delicious overall. BLUEBERRY APPLE YUZU: 4/5. The apple and yuzu are definitely the stars of this one. BOSS BREAKFAST: 5/5. Bacon, eggs, cheese, potatoes, served with a side of maple syrup. What's not to love? The eggs have a surprisingly strong flavor.

    Ordered a Too Good To Go bag and can't complain what a good deal it was. We got to try the Steak and Chicken pies, both good savory options. The worker was very nice and gave some recommendations based on her own favorites. Will have to be back to try their dessert pies, the Strawberry Rhubarb pie looks amazing! The place is small and they share space with Stella Jeans ice cream, there's a few seats inside. ig: @cravingswithcat

    I love key lime pies but seldom ever find one I enjoy. Usually the crust isn't sturdy enough and mushy. The filling either too sweet or doesn't have that nice aroma of lime juice. Sometimes it's all of the above. So consequently, I just never bother getting any as it almost always disappoints me and I just feel ripped off. Well, not so if I get my slices from Pop Pie!!!! I discovered this location by accident when I was fixing to get donuts next door. I don't know what made me pop in to look at pies but I am so glad I did!!!! What an underrated place this is. The service was courteous and efficient. I got 4 different kinds of pies. Two savory and two sweet ones. I honestly wasn't expecting much until I took a bite out of my two sweet pies. I shared with nobody at home because it was too good. My mom couldn't snatch the fork out of my hand fast enough just to try a bite. The key lime pie was very silky and had just enough tartness and sweetness. The crust was sturdy and buttery. Just how I like them. No soggy bottoms and no wet pie sheets looking and tasting greasy. The same with the chocolate pecan pie. Not gritty and not crunchy. But still has the perfect texture and flavors of chocolate and pecans. Loved it. Also enjoyed the breakfast pie that had loads of potatoes and savory meats. This one is not something I would get again. I liked the quiche but not enough to go back just to have more of. Parking here is easy and free right in front of the shop. Amex accepted and totally worth visiting for treats. What a wonderful discovery this was and I can't wait to go back!

    This is a good pot pie! Really great crust on the pot pie- nice fluffy and not soggy. Not too salty. But at the end of the day, it's a pot pie and it's only you can eat once a year. It was good,but I don't crave it. Parking is tough and there's nowhere to sit, it's more of a take out place.

    Took a drive after so many rainy days and the sunshine was out to greet me. It was a nice drive to Costa Mesa and I thought to get a few savory breakfast pies and a birthday pie. They did not disappoint! Each one was thoughtfully explained by the friendly staff. I bought the Blueberry Apple Yuzu Crumble pie to celebrate our dad's birthday and he is going to be super pleased! Friendly customers all sharing their favorites with one another. Chicken pot pie, Poblano Corn, and many more. They have a delicious sides like creamed corn that I love! Parking is rotational switching in 10 minutes, people leave and you can find a spot. Be patient it's worth it!

    A small store front to come pick up personal size pot pies. The friendly staff asked if I had been there before and if I had any questions. The store sold savory and sweet pies with other baked dessert. I picked up the Beef and Ale pot pie with creamed corn. It was a good pairing. The beef pot pie was meaty and the crust was flaky. Forgot to take a picture of the guava pastry, which was tasty. The staff offered to heat up the pastry. The parking can be a bit hard if you go by during lunch. Had to drive around to find parking to do a take out order.

    Turkey pot pie

    Trying to clean out my freezer Turkey pot pie with cranberry sauce 5/5 This has been in my freezer since Nov? I was supposed to bake it best by 5/25, but I'm a bit shy of the date lol regardless, it tastes great. Air fried it at 350f for 30-40 min or so. Turkey is moist with a bit of texture so it doesn't feel like you're eating limp poultry. There's corn, potatoes, celery, carrots, a touch of rosemary that isn't overly creamy with the roux mixture. Cranberry sauce has a teensy bit of cinnamon and leans more sweet than tart. Crust is flakey and buttery. Not as crunchy as other spots, but solid for a pie crust. It was $11 or $12? Not bad to have this in the freezer long term. Two people can split one for a hefty snack or you can eat a whole one and potentially fall asleep.

    (D) Green Hog & Cheese & (D) Classic Chicken Pot Pie
    Kevin T.

    Came here after seeing a few TikToks about it. The interior is a small storefront with a display case of their pies and a few tables if you want to eat there. We tried the classic chicken pot pie and the green pork and cheese pot pie. The chicken was warm and comforting, though I do wish the chicken pieces were cut a bit smaller because they were kind of dry. The pork pie had a generous amount of meat and great flavor, but was also slightly dry. Overall, a solid choice and I would consider coming back to try different flavors.

    I've been a big fan of Pop Pie for years and have happily driven out of my way just to get their chicken pot pie and other delicious flavors. However, I had a very concerning experience with my most recent visit. I purchased a chicken pot pie yesterday and nearly choked on a bone that was inside. It was alarming and has made me hesitant to continue purchasing what used to be one of my favorites. I truly hope they improve their quality control -- consistency and safety are everything, especially with food. Unfortunately, this experience drops my rating to 2 stars.

When we ordered the cinnamon roll, there was no option to heat it up, so we thought they would have done it already. When it was served, it was rock solid. So, we asked them to heat it up. However, after a few minutes, it still wasn't that gooey and the inner core was still pretty tough. Perhaps they could have warmed it up so that it was evenly softened. Overall, the cinnamon roll was alright. It was a brioche roll so you would think it might be lighter and fluffy, but ours was pretty dry. However, the cream on top was insanely good. It carried the roll. The hazelnut twist was kind of what you would expect. A twisted pastry but with a hefty amount of hazelnut-chocolate spread thru the layers. We sat in a little nook, where there was a magnetic black board, where there were word tiles you could rearrange in any way. It was a nice place to just look around at all the sentences the community wrote. Chess tables were also available as extra seating. Overall, the service was good, but could be better when warming up pastries, so that the customer can enjoy them properly!

This last visit was unfortunately very different. We came in with a fairly large party, and we completely understood that accommodating a group our size is a lot of work. When we got in line, the employee asked how many people were in our party, which made sense. However, we were then told that we could not all pay separately. This was confusing because payment is taken before you even sit down, so it's not like we were trying to split a bill afterward. Rather than make a fuss, we combined everyone's orders onto one card, totaling around $400. The food and drinks came out fairly quickly, which we appreciated. The reason I felt compelled to write this review, though, was because of how rude one particular employee was during the experience. She was wearing patriotic cat ears and appeared to be one of the baristas. One of my friends ordered a latte with alternative milk, but it seems the order may have been entered incorrectly. I've worked in the coffee industry myself, so I understand mistakes happen all the time, and remaking a drink is usually not a huge issue. Instead of handling it kindly, the employee responded with, "That's how it was put in, the request time has passed, that's our policy," in an incredibly dismissive and rude tone. We were honestly stunned. My friend, visibly uncomfortable, just quietly said "Okay," and the employee walked away. Nothing was offered to make the situation right. This happened after we had already spent hundreds of dollars and tipped before even being served. I'm not someone who enjoys complaining or writing negative reviews, but the interaction completely changed the experience for our entire group. What's most disappointing is that the refusal itself wasn't even the main issue, it was the attitude and apparent enjoyment in being dismissive over a very small and understandable mistake. I'm writing this mostly out of disappointment because I truly loved this place. I also think it's important for larger parties to know ahead of time that there appears to be a policy limiting payment methods, even though I've personally visited before with smaller groups where separate payments were allowed. I genuinely hope this was just an off day, because Eller Bakery has been a place I've loved supporting for a long time.

I've never really had chile relleno, so I decided to just go for it and try something different even though there were other options that were more my preference. It was alright. Good thing it was only $5. The seafood cocktail was delicious! They did not skimp on the seafood and everything in it tasted so fresh. Pozole wasn't terrible, but just like my burrita, it was a bit on the bland side. Maybe my palate skews too heavily towards salty, but I felt like a little salt here and there would've really improved the flavors in everything we ordered. Overall the quality/freshness was there!

All you gotta do is order at a window where a cashier will take down your order and then wait in the side for your freshly made churros.
