EDIT: the new Southwest Chicken pie is amazing! Beans, red peppers, corn, spinach, and spiced just perfectly.
Terrific tastes from South Africa, England, and America - pepper steak, chicken peri peri, spinach & feta, cheeseburger, and more - all inside the most delicious crust you've ever tasted. You might think this is a typical pot pie, but it's so, SO much more. The crust is made from scratch and all of the ingredients are fresh -- nothing is brought in frozen or pre-made. There is always something vegetarian on the menu, as well. Ty and his family run the shop and he is a friendly guy, an impeccably honest businessman, and an amazing chef. Drop in for lunch or call ahead to get your favorite flavors baked fresh just for you. And don't forget to grab a couple of dessert pies...

This is South African cuisine almost identical to what you'd experience in South Africa. The savory pies are absolutely delicious like nothing you'll find in America.
My wife is from SA and I've been there twice and when we found out about this place we made the hour+ drive and it would have been worth another couple hours.
We'll be back in just a couple days to get some of their bunny chows which are only available at certain times.
Pepper steak pie is phenomenal along with the sausage roll. But we took home a bunch of frozen ones to try them all.
This place is a true taste of South Africa in Chicago. Try it and you won't be...
Read moreThis place is amazing. You check the website for the menu and pies available that day. Call and place the order. They take about 35 minutes to bake. Arrive in 35 minutes to pickup your piping hot fresh baked pot pies to take home. We usually get an assortment of pies and share them. 3 pies serves 2 people. But usually we get 4 because they are so good. If you like spicy, then I highly recommend the chicken peri peri or spicy mixed vegetables. You really can't go wrong with any of the pies. Every one we've had has been delicious. By the way, you can pick them up to bake yourself, but we've found it's best to have him bake them right when we are ready to eat. Perfect...
