935 the Queensway yes - but come around the block from Canmotor and the backend of the building via Queen Elizabeth to park and access the storefront from there and park there too. That is probably the only thing that will fool those who are directionally challenged. This is not a proper place to really eat as the counter is tiny and there's just stool seats inside (3) while the outside does have some places to sit down I'd imagine as the weather gets worse you may not want to eat out there. The parking is right in front but also off to the side as well being that this storefront does not face Queensway. The area in front of the storefront doesn't appear to be paved and could become muddy if it gets wet. The food is something a little different. I love pies and yet I'm not a dessert person so go figure. While they have pies hot for the ready to eat savory as well as sweet ones on display their other offering is take home frozen pies which run roughly 7.50 a piece. A 4 pack box will cost about 30 bucks give or take as their seems to be a surcharge for braised beef pies of 50 cents more. These products are great and the pies are 7.50 for a reason and if I had to answer that it's because you can create a market for people willing to pay 7.50 for 5" pot pies because they taste oh so good. These are NOT Swanson frozen pies these are much better and are completely in a different league. The crust is light and flaky and the insides or oh so tasty. We came rather late and much had been sold out but we did manage to get 2 braised beef and one seasonal one with pork and squash. I had ordered 2 each of braised beef and beef and beer frozen to take home. The cards there have the baking instructions and it doesn't seem that hard to make. For a really good frozen why not try these instead of your typical grocery store preservative ridden frozen food? Yes they take a long to make but it's worth it. The baking of the crust is not something that you can compromise by trying to microwave it. It would be the difference of trying to boil something that is intended to be fried... just not the same. If I could wish something I would wish 2 things actually. One would be that they have a way of actually identifying what pies are what when you order them whether it be take out hot and ready or take home. The pies all look the same so we couldn't tell them apart. For the frozen ones that's another issue since there is no breaking them apart because they are frozen solid. A way to tell what is what would help. Another wish list item would be for the frozen pies to be sealed or bagged. I don't mind doing it myself but it's not like we can just take the box and throw it in the freezer like that exposed. Besides those wish list items the food here is fantastic and I look forward to cooking a few at home on a day that it doesn't look favorable to go outside - this is probably as close to perfect comfort food that's not chicken noodle soup. read more

First time at this place and it was definitely an experience to remember. My girlfriend and I got 4 pies, 2 Braised beef pies, steak and cheese and the lamb shank, also the chocolate pie, oh and also a small fries and poutine and some drinks... a nice Saturday evening dinner. It's pretty awesome how you can also get the pies frozen and bring them home to warm up at your own home if your ever feeling the need for some meat pies. We ordered the ones that were already baked, and ready to go. You can also make your own pies which would take about 30 mins but who really got time for that unless you order on the phone. Now to the pies, The lady who helped us said the braised beef and the steak and cheese were there best sellers, so I would put the steak and cheese #1 definitely has a different taste and texture, the braised beef, which is thick and meaty, and the lamb shank I guess it really depends how your feeling, the lamb shank definitely has that savoury taste and it's a meal on its own The price point isn't that bad if you really think of it, if the pies were a bit bigger they would go for $10 all day but for 8.95 to 9$ it's not bad... unless you smash two pies and then your wallet will definitely feel it each time The French fries, are great fresh, but once it's over an hour... there straight to the garbage. There handout fries so it wouldn't be the best of the best, the gravy is made in house and it's nice rich and thick. Would we come back? Probably next week! read more

Stouffer's has nothing on The Pie Commission! Take everything that you remember from your childhood, re: meal option when your mom hasn't cooked, uni staples, etc., burn, then bury them. Location: Around back of a block of retail stores, including Delux Paints and some hair salon. Just east of Islington. When you see the sign "PIE", pull in OR go south of Canmotor to access the parking lot. Menu: There are only a few staple pies on the menu, but plenty of specials, including soups, sides, and even a coupla desserts. Ordered: Braised Beef ($7.45) & Butter Chicken Pies ($6.95) with a side of fries ($2.95). Fries are chip truck quality and therefore, yummy, and an absolute MUST if you even have the slightest craving from fries! I only had a coupla nibbles of the Braised Beef, but I think I preferred the Butter Chicken. Crust was delicious, buttery, & flaky! I think both pies could have used a tad more salt, but had good flavour. I remember The Pie Guyz having a better Butter Chicken filling, but then again, the owners there are Indian, so...crust at Pie Commission was flakier. Great stop for a snack/in between/heavier lunch/lighter dinner-type meal. Obviously not for those on a health kick! ;) Tip: Primarily takeout as there is only a few stools with a counter to eat at. read more

Considering this place has dozens of reviews, I'll keep it short. The pie crust is about the best I've and made with real butter. I had a special which had beef brisket, cheese and glazed onions. I don't want to overstate it, but the beef was incredible - along with everything else. Both people I brought with me were beyond impressed. It's 'close your eyes when eating' good. The side of fries is just over $3 and they're fresh-cut fries at a generous portion - enough to share between the 3 of us. Only downside is knowing one pie is more than enough if you're remotely conscious of your health. I almost left sad knowing I'd have to wait to try the chicken/mango/curry, along with the sweet pies. read more

Wowowow! Came here, thanks to Yelp. Absolutely love pies and now that we found this place, we're IN LOVE!! Pies of all sorts, Jerk chicken, Butter chicken, pulled pork, braised rib, etc. Ethnically palatable! A little pricey but worth it! You get what you pay for. read more

The pie commission. Walking into the pie commission is like giving your olfactory senses a spa day. The smell of baking meat pies literally makes u think ... "Why is this not a scent I can buy as an air freshener?" My first stop at the pie commission was an interesting one , because I was in Toronto working . I Yelped "best restaurants near me" This odd sliver of a restaurant popped up. I immediately thought , " Meat pies ?" Delicious ! There are no places in Alberta that sell delicious meat pies . Sometimes you'll find them at pubs but not a stand alone pie place. And if you do find them they usually own sell "Shepards Pie" The pie commission had over a dozen savory pie choices ! The problems were it closes at 7pm. That's right 7pm. I had to grab a cab after my training course and have the cab waiting to take me to the airport . Knowing my timeline would be tight I called the pie commission ahead of time to have my pies ready. That is correct my pies, as in multiple. I knew I wouldn't be back to Toronto anytime soon so this would be my one chance for meat pies . I called ahead and talked to westjet and the security at the airport . "Can I bring a frozen meat pie through security?" I'm sure I must have made them all laugh that day. The answer is yes , you can indeed bring frozen meat pies through security in your carry on. The only caveat is "no liquids " or "gravy" When I pulled up at the pie commission they had my hot pie Andy frozen pies ready. The frozen pies were double wrapped and didn't leak. Total for 5 pies $40 Knowing I've got frozen meat pies from pie commission waiting to be eaten ? Priceless ! #piecommish read more

These pies are as good as it gets! If you're in the mood, don't hesitate to pull off the Gardiner, exiting at Islington and head down the first road north off the highway. The crust is flaky and awesome. The ingredients tasty and nicely salted. I had the Great Lakes / Beef pie which has caramelized onions and was rich and delicious. This is a popular lunch spot in the area with lineups at their window in the summer, and room outside to eat. Bonus points for well thought out packaging which lets you grab your pie in a cardboard sleeve and eat it like a sandwich. They need to have the obligatory warning 'caution filling is hot' because even though we walked across a windy cold parking lot in front of the Cineplex theatre, the pie was still plenty hot after I toted it in one of their paper handle bags. The selection of sauces and condiments was intriguing and needs further investigating. Hooray for meat pies! read more

The address is 935 The Queensway but you won't see this along the Queensway because it is at the back of the building. This place is not really a dine in place. There is 1 table, 3 stools inside and a table outside with beach chairs. We had the pie of the day Steak and cheese pie and the Butter Chicken pie. Serving size is individual size, good enough to fill me up. The pie is flaky. Butter chicken has a hint of spiciness. Personally, I liked the Steak and Cheese pie better than the Butter Chicken. You could get side orders of Coleslaw, hand cut fries, or salad. We tried the chocolate cherry milkshake. I believe this is just a summer special because it says on the sign, last day today. Generous whip cream topping. I like it but could only enjoy a few sips because it's too sweet for me. The place is busy for take outs. From the time we walked in until we finished our 2 pies in about 30 mins, the place was never out of customers. I didn't have time for dessert but the dessert pies looks good. Would definitely come back. read more

My first time trying their pies and I was not disappointed! Had the pleasure of trying their braised beef rib pie. Delicious buttery crust with a flavourful and tender beef filling. Don't let the size of the pie fool you, I thought I wouldn't be full when I first opened up the box, but it is quite filling once you start digging in. read more

Been a customer since day one. Almost 4 years. Went today took home a 4 pack special taco and cheese X2, steak and Cheese and beef and beer. A lemon mirangue desert pie. Always friendly service. They know my name. Lol. Great place read more

+1 for Lambert's parking suggestion The original hole in the wall location is great for take out but dining in isn't recommended. However, that doesn't change the fact that they have some pretty darn good pies! Plus they come in the cutest and convenient take out boxes ever. I've tried both the braised beef and the pulled pork, but pulled pork is my favourite (for now...). read more

not bad.. lot of HYPE, but overall wasn't cheap and food quality was DECENT. Nice unique spot, friendly staff.. read more

I miss them when we moved away from Etobicoke to the east end. Great pies, fresh cut chips. Outstanding stuff. Will have to go back for a visit soon. read more

This place has always been on my To-Go List. I got the Braised Beef and my brother got the pulled pork (which was their seasonal pie). The Braised Beef was my favourite of the two. There were nice chunks of beef and I believe there was sweet potato there as well! A good pie needs a great crust and this pie delivered. The crust was flakey and buttery. It was just a delight! There were a lot of condiments to choose from, which is a plus and the service was quick as well. There are limited seatings indoors but there are seating outside! read more

Tried the Beer and Beef, Braised beef and Coconut pie. All were delicious! They are easy to pop in your mouth with no knife and fork needed, the slide out package it comes in is perfect!

Yup. This hits the spot. I admit only been here once but the pies are amazing. Got their signature beef pie and wow, incredibly awesome. Extremely heavy as I assume all pies are. It looks small but I guess it just expands right up. comes in a cardboard container for easy busy eatting. Be aware this is takeout place with little seating. There are ledges to sit on outside tho read more

Sooooooooo good, I love it, I want more of their piessssssss, we tried the meatball And it gosh darn good, mouth watering, I wanted to eat my girlfriends other half....they have different pies made everyday and you can add a side of fries, coleslaw or mixed greens with it, they should open a food truck for this place Definitely a must try read more

The Pie Commission - Butter chicken pie to go! - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Had to try this place based on reviews and now I am a true believer of reviews and a dedicated reviewer for YELP. I ordered a baked steak and cheese pie for myself and purchased 4 unbaked (2 braised, 1 butter chicken and a steak and cheese) for my cousins family to try it out. The service was quick which I loved. I came straight home and had my pie...now i'm not so sure if i want to share the rest lol....the pie itself is just so flaky and buttery, best pie i've ever had to be honest. I'm not a fan of coleslaw so the coleslaw was okay to me, next time I will probably have it with fries. Had a bit of trouble finding the place since it was my first time and they only have outdoor seating so it will definitely not be a winter spot. read more

Me and my boyfriend were looking online for a place to buy chicken pot pies and we came upon a list by BlogTO. We saw this place and kind of kept it in mind but then went out to do some errands. Along the way, I started craving pot pie more and more. My boyfriend said it was near where we were and sure enough, when I saw it on the maps, it was about a minute up the road. I quickly checked their hours and saw 7pm...looked at the time, 7:03! NOOO. So we went on our way and then I checked their twitter and saw their summer hours were now in, and they were open until 8!! So on our way back, we stopped in. As I kind of expected for going that late in the day, they had none that were already cooked. But we decided to take 3 frozen ones to go and just have a late dinner. I went with the butter chicken and the bf got the beef n' beer and the beef short rib. After about 40 minutes in the oven, they were perfectly golden brown and we couldn't wait to dig in. The pastry is really delicious - flaky, buttery, and almost a sweet note to it. I definitely enjoyed the butter chicken, and it had a nice bite to it. My bf said he couldn't pick the one he liked better, as they were both great. Service was friendly, and I like the signage. And while they don't have a classic chicken pot pie, we'll be back to this place in the future. read more

Definitely a hidden gem, but with no shortage of customers walking in as we were eating our pies. Lived up to my expectations for sure! We ordered the the braised short rib pie, lobster and shrimp pie (seasonal), and chocolate Nutella banana custard pie. The braised short rib was amazing! It was flavorful and the pie itself was flakey and melt in your mouth. I didn't like the lobster and shrimp as much. There was little to no taste. I liked the filling of the chocolate Nutella banana custard pie, but didn't like the pie crust as much because it was harder. I was expecting a crust as fluffy as the savory pie. Will definitely go back to try the BBQ beef pie and get frozen pies to make at home! Take out is advised as there's only 3 stools to sit on and the restaurant is very small. read more

I had lunch here yesterday. The staff were really friendly and accomodating I was a first timer. Everyone else that came in were regulars and all agreed anything off the menu was amazing. I got the pulled pork pie which I ate immediately and a steak and cheese to heat up at work later for dinner. The pastry is so good and the flavor of each pie very delicious. I was expecting to be fumbling with a knife and fork while driving but was very impressed with the packaging that allowed me to eat it like a burger ONE-HANDED. AWESOME! read more

The Pie Commission - Pulled pork One Hander! Yeah GOOD! - Fast Food Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is as good as it gets. Everything about this place is just perfect. The food is out of this world and the service is always amazing. The sweet ladies working there always have a huge smile and are always ready to guide you through the menu selection. I usually order their limited time offerings but their regular menu is solid too. I shared the steak and cheese pie and the pulled pork pie with a friend (best way to enjoy more than one flavor). The steak and cheese pie was really good but the star of the show was the pulled pork pie. The crust is just too good. The filling was really flavorful as well. Overall, I would recommend this place to everyone because hey, who doesn't like a proper pie? read more

My mother brought me here on a Saturday afternoon recently. I am not a huge fan of pie or pastry at all but wow these guys have got it right! We were one of the first people there when they opened at 12 noon and they were quick and efficient with taking our orders. They were all incredibly friendly and gave us excellent recommendations. I tried the braised beef rib pie and my mother had the butter chicken pie. Both were absolutely delicious! My favourite was the braised beef, the pastry was flaky and baked wonderfully. The filling was just perfect! I would definitely go there again! The location was easy to miss so if you are heading down there just make sure you are paying attention! They are not actually located right on the Queensway but behind a block of stores. You can make a right off of the Queensway onto Canmotor Avenue and then another right on Queen Elizabeth Blvd, the store is on your immediate right. read more

Reasonably priced. Best suited for take-out as there is not a lot of sitting room. The food is very tasty - and let's be honest, it is a fairy innovative concept; how many other places are selling delicious, ready to take home, pies of all kinds of varieties? A little hard to find so be patient and don't give up too easily - it took me about 5 mins of walking around in circles to find it, but when I did I was sure glad I did. read more

The pie commission is known in Etobicoke and I finally gave in and tried it. It was great. Recommend all of them. We ordered a few for our family and it is worth every cent.

Not a lot of places that sell Meat Pies...but there really doesn't need to be with this place around. DELICIOUS savory meat pies that are INSTANTLY ready for you to eat, or frozen for you to take home and bake yourself. There aren't TOO many choices so deciding isn't an issue, but there is definitely the right amount of choices and they all sounds perfect. The food is served literally instantly. The price is cheap.

Lobster and shrimp pie is the bombbbbbbbbb! So tender and flakey and full of meat! Fiancé had the chicken with mashed potatoes and was less impressed. I don't think it's the pie's fault. Instead of sauce it had mashed potatoes so he was really missing the sauciness of a traditional chicken pot pie. Overall would definitely come back! Another highlight is their fries! What a big surprise! Must have! read more

The Pie Commission entrance is actually on Queen Elizabeth Blvd., despite the 935 The Queensway listed address. There are parking spots either at the front of the store, or at the lot on the corner of Queen Elizabeth Blvd. and Canmotor Ave. The store is a few steps down from street level. Outside at the front there are two picnic tables, two sets of tables with chairs and a couple of Adirondack/Muskoka chairs, where you can savor your pies after purchasing them. The store itself is tiny and consists of a cashier counter where you order the pies, and a small high table with three chairs tucked in the corner. The regular menu consists of seven pie offerings (braised beef rib, beef n'beer, butter chichen, chicken cheddar bacon mash, veg-ilicious, pulled pork, sweet potato masala), sausage roll, poutine, sides (fries, salad, soup, gravy, mayo) and desserts (pies, ice cream). They also have seasonal pies. The buttery flaky pastry is to die for. My personal favorite regular pie is the chicken cheddar bacon mash, and my favorite seasonal pie is the smokey steak & cheese. The dessert pies are also very good. Sometimes I get fresh or frozen pies and bake them later at home. I get them fresh if I'm planning to bake them the next day; if I'm planning to bake them later, I get them frozen. If you purchase 4, you get a $2 discount. Baking from frozen takes about an hour, is super easy to do, and the results are as good as the ones baked in the store. My friends are always impressed when I bake them at home and serve for Sunday brunch with a homemade salad on the side. Decadent! The only negative in my opinion is the price. But I'd rather pay more for a quality product than having them cut corners to lower the price. Recommended! read more

"Overall, not many seats outside (and none inside as we soon discovered), but dining-in did not appear to be the focal point for Pie Commission." "A loud "Bloody Good Pies" sign welcomed us along with a plenty of black and white signage and an illustration of a moustached gentleman with a bowl hat. " "Our Beef'n'Beer pie was heavy, meaty and a bit on the dry side. We saw the chunks of onion through the homogeneous content of the filling. We preferred the meat option due to a more flavorful taste, the veggie one could have used a bit more of a flavour spike." "All dessert pies were sold cold including the Strawberry, Rhubarb Apple Crumble we bought. It came sprinkled with oats and crumbs - so be careful not to let them get away." Just a few bites of our experience.. read more

3.5 out of 5 Hey, I was in the area for a pick up and seen this place the second time, so I decided to try this place for lunch. Small and compact place which is everything is in front of you(Dessert pies and Hot fresh pies). Ordered for my friend and I the Beef Rib and Butter Chicken Pie(s). Pie could have been a little bigger. Flavours for both pies are done well, especially the buttered flaky crust. Less 1.5 stars are the price point, could be cheaper by a dollar so you can get more customers in or buying take out. Happy Nom-ming\!! read more

Hella Good Pie. When that Steak & Cheese comes up on the menu, do NOT miss it. If you think "I don't really like pie" it's probably because you haven't had the right pie. I don't really like pie myself, yet I find myself so darn excited to pick out which one we'll try that night, and drooling myself into a food coma an hour later. There's fresh and frozen and there's no reason not to get two... each... and then more. read more

People love these pies. They are tasty. But leave me feeling like I'm going to have a heart attack. Maybe once every 6 months is all I could handle. read more

Delish at least the traditional ones are solid. Good crust. Well made with tasty ingrediants

The sweet pies are never fresh. They mark the dates down on the bottom of the tin by color coding and then they sell the older pies first. They are always frozen and then thawed out in the display case where they sit and stay. All the sweet pies come from frozen. The savoury pies that are unsold and baked are frozen and resold later. Most of the savoury pies come from frozen and then thawed out in the fridge for baking so you're never actually getting a fresh pie. For the vegans and vegetarians every pie is wiped with egg wash. The oil for the fries is never changed and the sides like the salad can sit for days in the tray. When paying, the debit machine prompts you to give a tip everytime you choose to pay with your card. Even if you're not eating in and you're not being served a tip is always asked. Everything is overpriced and it's not exactly the healthiest choice of food. I'm personally not impressed with their products. read more

The pot pies from here are amazing, but pricier than your local supermarket... but, then again you're buying a fresh made, or frozen-fresh made meat pie with some fun and exciting pot pie flavors. It's a take out joint more than anything...but, they do make a mighty fine pot pie! read more

I have never had a bad pie from The Pie Commission, and I have never a better pie anywhere else. I'm serious. I've had all manner of sweet and savoury pies from many, many places, but I will purposely go out of my way to get one of these pies. I will drive from Oakville during my lunch break just to get one and have to eat it while working when I get back. I will leave the downtown core while it's rush hour and have to sit through traffic just to taste that flaky buttery crust. And if I'm so fortunate to attend a meeting or conference that is being catered by them (which I have), you best believe that I will carry as many of them as I can home. You cannot go wrong with anything on their menu, and their frozen take home pies come out amazing. Seriously, if you've read this far, you've wasted precious time that can be had eating their pies. I'm salivating thinking of the next time I'll get to have one. read more
