Rolling Pin Pies & Cakes — Restaurant in Ocean Grove

Obviously we had to try these award-winning pies, although every bakery reckons its pies and vanilla slice win awards, right?

Over our Ocean Grove holiday we were loyal Rolling Pin customers and went back multiple times: my friends were obsessed with the mushroom and truffle pie although I didn’t try it myself.

I liked the lamb and rosemary pie (which included peas and carrots) and the pepper steak pie, which had a mix of mince and juicy chunks. These were oval-shaped. I also had the beef, cheese and bacon pie but that was less special: a square pie much the same as at most other bakeries.

My friends liked these pies so much they would go back for a second pie in one sitting, and bought more to take home where they were much appreciated!

What was this brown substance I hear you ask?? AVOCADO! never in my long life have I seen such a repugnant thing. avocado is green for those of you who...

Very sneaky misleading business practice. A free pie isn’t really a free pie under there reward loyalty system.. I brought a sausage roll and a pie not even one of there so called award winning pies, And paid $7.00 for a very average sausage roll. When I questioned why a $4.50 sausage roll cost the price of the pie I was told they go off the cheapest item.. So not really getting a free pie.. Also a 1.5 % surcharge on all cards which is excessive and illegal according to the ACCC have been going there for years but won’t...
