Home Pie Bakery & Cafe — Restaurant in Ontario

Loved these little Chicken Pot Pies!!! They totally tasted like something I would make at home. I ordered the Chicken and Vegetable, which had peas and carrots and my Dad ordered Chicken and Mushroom. Both pies were filled (and I mean FILLED) with tender white meat chicken, in perfect little bite size pieces. Not a chewy or dark piece in there! It had just enough sauce to keep it moist, not little chunks of meat swimming in sauce like you get in a frozen pot pie. Also not too salty or overly seasoned - I added a little pepper to enhance the flavor. The crust was good, not super thick, and was fresh. I can always taste preservatives in those pre made crusts. The filling was 90% chicken and 10% veggies, so I thought it was worth the $5.95. (BTW - I am totally a veggie person, I eat meat maybe 2 or 3 times per month, and I was more than happy with the proportion of meat to veggies.) Served piping hot in the little foil container it was baked in. They place it in a Styrofoam box, so it would be easy for take out or for leftovers (of which there were none!) They have the pies in a little warming oven at the front, and while we were there one of the employees came out from the back and said she needed to bake up a few more pies - so they obviously bake them throughout the day instead of a massive batch in the morning. Nice and fresh!! We arrived around 1:15 and there were only 4 or 5 in the warming oven, so I would guess if you have a large group or wanted to take a few home it might be good to call ahead. They also had beef pies, smaller hand pies, and salads available, as well as both bottled and fountain drinks. I think they had some little desserts too, but we were too full. I was also very pleased with the customer service. We were greeted with a big smile when we walked in the door. I found the employees to be very friendly, helpful, and patient with the couple in front of us who asked a lot of questions and wanted to take some pies home in addition to their lunch. Everything was super clean: front counter, soda area, tables and chairs, floor, and restrooms. It is atmosphere is very basic, not fancy at all. (Feels like a Subway or similar.) But since it is located in an industrial complex, this seems appropriate. Food served on plastic trays with plastic forks, but none of this detracted from the delicious pies. My Dad was having some medical tests done at Kaiser Ontario (about 5 minutes away) and we needed to grab some lunch. I don't eat fast food, so I found this little place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. I would...

I came in today to get some lunch. After looking at the brief menu I decided on the Porchetta Sandwich. There weren’t any sides listed, but the owner was quick to offer a side salad, and that was perfect with me.

The bread on this sandwich is light and airy, with enough bite to hold it’s contents. The pork was tender, and flavorful, and the pesto spread along the bun gave the sandwich the perfect amount of savory flavor. Patty (the owner) put spicy sauce on the side, and it seems to be a oily, chili, concoction, but it was delicious! It wasn’t salty, and it had the perfect portion and flavor to blend with the pork, lettuce, tomato and pesto.

The side salad, came with a sweet poppyseed dressing, that was absolutely incredible, and the salad had assorted greens, with kale, bean sprouts?, raddichio, and carrots. It was super fresh, and for the price, I think it was absolutely fair!

I also had a chocolate chip cookie, and at first I thought that it may have been overcooked, but it was GBS, golden brown delicious. It wasn’t cooked a second longer than it should have, it was crisp enough for a crunch, but soft enough to have an excellent chewy texture.

I will definitely be back to try the various sandwiches and pot pies; who knew that there was a hidden gem like this alongside all of these warehouses in lil ole’ Ontario.

Patty is the best, she was willing to answer questions and be patient with me while...

OMG OMG OMG okay so my boyfriend and I simply googled “bakery near me” and Home Pie Bakery & Cafe came up so we decided to take a look see what they had. We got an apple pie, a pecan pie and 2 beef empanadas. We devoured the empanadas when we got home so I don’t have pictures of those... everything and I mean everything was so amazing. The crust on the apple pie was so buttery and delicious the apples weren’t over cooked at all, the pecan pie!!! Okay the pecan pie was perfection. To be honest I have never been a fan of pecan pie but this pie was so enjoyable my boyfriend and I are going to be fighting over it. The woman behind the counter who I’m assuming is the owner was the sweetest lady ever. I didn’t get her name but will definitely ask the next time we go. She let us have a piece of carrot cake on the house, the cake was super moist we both enjoyed all of our desserts. I highly recommend Home Pie Bakery & Cafe. Thank you for everything we promise...
