They used to be great years ago in their stand-alone shops - especially in the shopping malls. However never bothered with them now, as I only buy Herbert Adams and or on the very odd occasion on special through Woolies bakery.

Pie face literally went broke 3 times before being bought by United Petroleum. Now it's a completely different business and only exists at their servos.
@@roddevereaux1830 It's actually an interesting story with lots of twists n turns, and it'll only take you maybe half an hr to research. The fact that it still exists is remarkable.
lol a few weeks ago I pulled into one of their servos painted with "pie face" shit all over it advertising themselves as some kind of bakery just because I wanted to quickly grab some bread. All they had was loaves of tip top that expired the same day for about 5 bucks.
I had a good hack for the Pie Face near my old work. They would have 2 pies for 7 or 8 bucks, after 8pm or whatever time it was and I worked nights, but they would always be cooking fresh stuff. So I just hit them up after that time so the price was well worth it. The butter chicken is pretty good, I rate that.
I like Pie Face pies too but the only big brand pie I buy on a fairly regular basis is Vilis. It's a South Aussie brand that's been operating for over 50 years but you can buy them in most Aussie states including at Drakes supermarkets in Queensland. Vilis pies have nice pastry and quality innards and offer a decent range of flavours but my favourites are the curry pie and beef mince pie. I pay $3.70 for a Vilis pie at my local Woolies in Adelaide and then take them home and heat two in my air fryer. I then enjoy them with an ice cold VB or XXXX. Give them a whirl and tell us what you think.
the best pie iv ever had used to come from an Asian bakery at merrylands in Sydney, pies used to be $1.50 for a really large pie ( 90's) and they were screaming hot.. like dangerously hot .. never had much since that can match it even all these years later
There used to be Pie Face stores everywhere in Melbourne CBD, like it was stupid they were all so close to each other - but I really liked them, they used to do a floater with mushy peas which was great, but 50% of the time they'd say they didn't have any peas. Also their brownie was kind of amazing and I would always buy one if I had time between trams. I haven't had them since they became a part of united though.
HAHAHA Greg yah make me laugh. I wish you could be down here in Sydney for one of the best pie shops in Australia. Really... the best pies i have ever had. I might do a video myself.
@@GcTheHardstyler seriously, three for a quid here from a supermarket. A fancy butcher/ baker might do you for a quid fifty for one in a tourist spot, but that would be the “fuck off” point for most decent humans.
I just had a chicken cheese pie from pie face and I told my mum they are my favourite pies. My brother in law brings over really big expensive pies whenever he visits but I don’t like them. I prefer the pie face ones
god there is nothing better than watching greg and having a meat pie. i've heard about pie face for a long time. im glad it's greg approved because i never would've gone there otherwise. thank you for your service greg. a world without greg is a world without meat pies, and that's not a world i would ever want to live in. didn't even need any dead horse. #gregkingofthemeatpie
I recently tried Pie Face being two hours past lunch and low on gas. Like this bloke said, price was way up there and my pie was the equivalent of a home brand generic frozen pie. Even though the display looked the goods, I had to wait a couple of minutes for some sort of heating process to be conducted. Might or might not have been a departure from their normal methods, who knows? I won't be back. At about seven bucks, the pie was rubbish. Arse Face would be more appropriate...
Greg can you do a first and whack a table and chairs in the back of the ute and go to the drive in movies and do a food review from inside the tray of the ute? You could get there when they first open and have 30 mins or more to film b4 movie starts. Be awesome to see you in the back of the ute with the screen behind you. Would be an epic Grego video #420Grego
Meat pie chewing gum? Why is that not a thing?!? Haha If we can send William Shatner into space, then we can certainly create a chewing that emulates the flavour of eating an Aussie meat pie. 🤣😜😜
Greg! Ive got a request/recommendation. I'm from Canada, and when i was 18 my friend and I travelled to Australia and spent 2 months camping up the coast from Melbourne to Brisbane. We were on a tight budget but every once in a while we would treat ourselves to burgers. I had the crazy idea to add peanut butter at some point, and our own little Australian burger was born. every few nights for 2 months we'd make burgers with peanut butter, caramelized onions, mayonnaise and white sliced cheese. It sounds kinda weird, but the caramelized onions, peanut butter and mayonnaise combine to make an amazingly creamy, sweet, and salty burger. I know its entirely not Australian and completely a creation of our own but I've continued making it to this day, and because of those arbitrarily personal reasons, its always been nostalgic of Australia for me. I know you like experimenting in the kitchen and making crazy combinations, so maybe one day you should give it a shot, in or outside of a video. Cheers from Canada
@@davideirth3688 maybe I’m misunderstanding your comment but it totally works in the same way a proper chicken satay with peanut sauce does. Peanut butter when it meets the heat of the burger melts down like a peanut sauce and totally compliments the meat
G'day Greg, and thank you for your review! 😊 Could you please send us your details, we would love to send you some of our new products to review... Looking forward to hearing from you.
They make a decent jumbo lamb and rosemary sausage roll too. Goes well with one of their iced coffees. We get a free choice of sauces up here in Darwin.
Probably Herbert's frozen is as good even for 4.40 each full price. I rarely have pie face and I have one in walking distance might have to walk and get one or two 😅
Disappointed there is where size does matter lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣 we got this out my way menulog and the prices are terrible....looks rich in bland lol yeah no thanks ...good on ya grego good volg...4 for me .
When United Servo's changed to pie face my company did the refurbishment of the cabinetry and service counters in 2 of their stores in Adelaide... The bastards took forever to pay, but despite all that their pies are good.

Wish they sold meat pies here in the U.S.
Saw them in LA and New York. Australian themed cafes though.
What hapd to his Asian Mrs?
The pastry on Pie Face pies is sooo f... good 👍
I reckon Greg has actually scored the Pie 6.5 but gave it 2 extra to keep the in-laws happy.
Smart move!!!

Yummo Greggy, I don’t mind a small meat pie as long as it tastes great & has a fair dinkum true blue Aussie meat pie taste.🥧🇦🇺
I've never had a pie face pie, but I've had their coffee a few times. it's pretty good 👍
All their pies are top notch and have lots of flavor.
It's a pity they're too darn expensive.
Last month I bought a curry beef pie at penrith bakery for $4 and it had chunks of beef and not one single bit of fat or grissle.
Which bakery was that from? I'm always on the lookout for a good curry pie 👍🤤

Good review Greg pie face didn't last long in nz they closed down
Pie face are the worst I've eaten to be honest, I had one 2 years ago and they were bland and tasteless. They may have changed since then to be fair.

Ask for "mince pie''in the USA and even if they have it it will be mincemeat,XD.Beef pies here have diced beef,not ground beef typically.
Mincemeat is the classic pie here in New Zealand as well. USA says ground beef.

60% more 2nd rate ingredients

They have a Jesters there? If so you should try the Cheeseburger Jalapeño pie. It’s limited though.
I've never seen anything like it before, I have enjoyed a good old fashioned mincemeat pie, but it was chunkier, not so sludgy 🤔
Grego try the Rosemary and lamb sausage roll from Pie Face, i love it. Once again a bit over priced.
