The Pie Tin

Those who take a detour from King Street do so with a purpose, and that purpose is pie. These generous-sized, golden beauties are baked often and in small batches, so the menu changes frequently. Go ahead and try Moroccan lamb with chickpeas and cumin or the signature slow-roasted shredded pork with apple and barbecue sauce, served on a tin tray with buttery mashed potato or mushy peas. Sweet pies include brown butter pecan, passionfruit cream and an enormous apple pie. Coffee is good, while timber and exposed brick add to the artisan feel of this busy Newtown gem.
