Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I am afraid the pies do not live up to their reputation. There are many cities who claim to be pie capitals notably Wigan in England, Minnesota and Washington, but this honor will not be held by Olinda without a rewrite of their recipes. Cheap ingredients and too much salt was the verdict of my 2 daughters and myself who have been lucky enough to taste great pies outside of Australia. Sorry guys.....

😎 #Introduction
Pie In The Sky been around for years and is a good choice for lunch. You’ll need to Call in advance at the moment because of restrictions, or otherwise eat at an outside table.
👍 #TheyDoThisWell
The service (pie-to-table) was remarkably quick compared to other times we’ve been here.
The curry veggie pie and spinach and feta pie were very flavourful and crispy on the outside.
🤔 #OpportunityForImprovement
There was a great deal of confusion when entering the venue. There was very little signage and it wasn’t clear if people have ordered, waiting to order, or are just looking at the take away menu (no table service). More signage would be good - especially when there are a lot of people waiting to order.
😎 #Conclusion
The food is great and consistently great. The staff are friendly and accommodating where possible. Phone ahead to book if you want an indoor seat.

I work nearby and have noticed this place is closed and awful lot. A family or a group would approach these doors about once every minute only to regret climbing the stairs. Literally hundreds of people per day, it's sad to watch when everyone, particularly in the service industries has had such a tough year. Maybe when jobkeeper finishes the management will become more suitably motivated to open up more regularly. The pies are good there.

After lockdown we decided to visit Pie in thr sky for lunch
To our disappointment we didn't enjoy our lunch.
The wife ordered calamari it came with salad part the salad was discolored
I ordered pie an chips there was no flavour in the pie pastry pretty soft I guess it was microwaved
The chips it was more like potatoe crisp it was cut to thin.
The waiters need some training after eating one would of expected to be asked if we wanted dessert if not the bill would be given but no.
We made our way to pay no cashier we had to alert the waiter that we wanted to pay
We we'rent given any docket or receipt
Not happy

We came with high hopes for delicious pies, and elected enthusiastically upon arrival to dine in. We ordered a side of gravy and 'seasonal' steamed vegetables which were slopped flacidly to the side of our pies, clearly emanating from a frozen plastic packet. This managed to amount, inexplicably, to $35 for two. The gravy was delicious, however, and the only salve to our pie-based wounds. A quickie pie in the carpark for $8 would have been better.

They are charging full Restaurant Prices for a very poorly run take away service. They said they do not provide table service because of staff shortages, there was only one other couple there and they had three staff standing behind the counter. You have to go out to the rear car park to collect the order.
Food and drinks were very slow. One pie still cold in the middle.
We have been there before and it is definitely gone to the pack.
Overpriced and very disappointing.
Never going back!

A very enjoyable hot pie most welcome on a cold day. Light puff pastry with delicious chicken korma filling as was the creamy chicken mushroom special. Lots of variety and specials to please everyone.

The restaurant was almost empty, 4 other guests but we were seated about 1/2 a metre from another table no chance for a private conversation.
Coffee delivered almost immediately.
Food, 2 pies arrived at least 15 minutes later when coffee was finished.
Pies were not hot so had to be reheated.
Pies were very poor with little filling.
Noisy dominating conversation continued unabated beside us. We left immediately after eating.
Very disappointing.

It’s been a while since we have been here I’m not sure if it has changed hands or not . You used to get mushy peas and mash potatoes and gravy with your pies and was a nice lunch .
After today visit you can add chips ? They pies where dry no gravy in them or any randang sauce .
The sausage roll was burnt and black inside and the sausage meat inside dry ,
The custard tart was old and had a metallic taste and the lemon tart was also old and very old curd .
Will not return or recommend

Very rude staff. They don’t seem that interested in being there. We Stood there for 10 mins waiting for a table but were completely ignored by all staff who didn’t look overly busy. We just left and went to a cafe over the road. Will not go back.

Lunch on a rainy Sunday.... stock was low, wait times were long.
Pies are tasty but service needed some work.
Can sit inside or outside, but often very busy so hard to get a seat.
Coffee took ages....

Took 1 hour for 2 pies, chips and nachos, when pies came out they were burnt on the bottom and dry.
We were told by staff that we had come on after the lunch rush but really its pies and chips, should not take an hour.

so disappointing as the last time we went, albeit about 6 years ago it was great. Although its a pie place they used to do terrific baked potatoes but no longer. We ordered a pastie - far too much pastry and a meat and mushroom pie with a bowl of chips. Just as well they were piping hot as there did not seem to be any heating in the cafe and when we enquired about this, the waitress said they did not know how to work the heating!
The pie and pastie would have been enhanced by a couple of leaves of salad instead of just plonked on a bread and butter plate totally naked.
Unfortunately will not return.

Discovered this place accidentally when visiting the area. Love the Alpine ambience!! I ordered a beef and Guinness pie and my husband the pepper steak with mash peas and gravy.
Very happy with our meals. Water was served and rest room facilities clean .
Coffee was good and hot on a chilly day.
