A must stop on Hwy 87 - even if you already ate! Phoned in from 600 miles away and the owner was helpful. Upon arrival, the staff was just as friendly and helpful as the owner. So the food I ordered: Pies-Banana Cream and Apple. Empanadas: Chicken Pot Pie, Breakfast, Beef and Red Chili, and the Chorizo and Bean. My family was pleasantly surprised that we arrived with hot empanadas for lunch. None were too spicy, all were full flavor, and each was unique from the other. I covered the Empanadas first because I could smell them from the highway! I purchased 17 Empanadas for 8 people; great finger food! So good, they were gone in minutes! Now the pies! The Banana Cream was bananas! Artistically creamed up, with a delicious crust! The Apple Pie had a crusted top and the Apple filling was spiced to perfection. When presented at the party, again, these pies were gone in minutes. Hence the reason I don't have any photos of the food! That would require me to have a free hand; which was nowhere to be found! read more

Such a treat to have a homemade empanada from the PieBar. We chose chicken pot pie, mountain man, and mountain mamma--so good! The chipotle lime dipping sauce was our favorite. We shared a pineapple (creamy with chunks of pineapple,) strawberry and cream and brought home a cherry and a lemon. We also brought a few home--reheated in the toaster oven at 250 degrees for 20 minutes. Perfect. read more

This place is amazing! We went back 3 times during a three day stay in Pine! The Green Chilie Pork and the Strawberry Empanadas are to DIE FOR! I normally do not particularly enjoy empanadas or pie (my husbsnd ordered the mini apple pie) but this crust was amazing! I can't explain it. This is place a must! You walk up and order and there are outdoor places you eat. There is a variety of soda, teas, selters, hard seltzers, wine, and beers. I can't wait to go back! read more

This little hidden gem is amazing!! My husband and I got the artichoke empanada, an apple empanada & hot chocolates and it was so good!! Not greasy or as heavy as I would've expected. We will definitely be back!! read more

You would not expect to find such a great stop in such an out-of-the-way place. The empanadas are fantastic! As a border girl, I've been exposed to the traditional Mexican empanada most of my life so I know what they should be and these are definitely it. The crust is nicely crisp and flaky and the fillings are generous as well as unexpected. You have to try The Mountain Baby if you love mac n cheese - sounds not right but is oh so yummy. The Quiche Lorraine for breakfast is fabulous, the Loaded Baked Potato and Peach Empanadas are wonderful. And the Berry Blossoms are to die for. Love them! They were trying a new flavor when I was there and let us "test" it. So good! It was pulled pork and if they make it a regular menu item I would definitely come back for it all the way from Houston, TX. I picked up a whole pile of empanadas to bring back with me and do not regret it - they reheat beautifully if you put them in the oven. The service was quick and super friendly. All of the girls were chatty, helpful and professional. The outdoor eating area provided a beautiful, peaceful setting to enjoy the meal and the bathrooms were super clean. If you are ever in or near Strawberry, Arizona you cannot pass this place by. Absolutely worth the stop. read more

Cute shop with tasty pies and friendly service. Tasted pretty much all the varieties of flavor that were available for the the day and everyone of the pies/empanadas were delicious! A must go if in the area. read more

Delicious "empanada" hand pies similar to Cornish pasties. Many sweet and savory flavors. I liked the green chile best. Wife and I stopped in for just a snack, but went back for seconds, and then split a dessert pie too. Nice people. They keep it spotless, too. My wife is an OCD-level neat freak and noticed how clean the bathroom was. read more

They do be making pies for everyone. And the pies do be BOMB. The staff is very interactive and friendly. We got bean and cheese, panda, lemon, cherry, key lime, mountain man, mountain mama, and when we finished we had to get MORE. and now we are STUFFED read more

Empanadas were fabulous and the brewed coffee was excellent. Very engaging and enthusiastic staff. Fun little stop!

Went in to see what a empandas was, (since i dont speak spanish). When i asked the question, she turned into A KAREN, yelled at me, ruffley pushed a napkin holder at me, said read this. She could of just explained they were like a tart or small meat pie. No way was i spending money there after being yelled at. I read some reviews, I've not beenbthe only one treated badly.​ read more

Holy heck! This place is so freaking cute! So many different and great flavors. I wish I could try them all! I had the pork and pot pie and my friends got some dessert ones that they said were very good, but I would stake my life on the chili pork and pot pie! The seating is outside though, so weather permitting, it's not too bad. read more

Was doing some vacationing around Arizona on our way to Tonto natural bridge, when we stumbled upon Pie Bar. Friendly staff, good selection of food, pies and drinks. It was Easter Sunday so I was surprised anything was open, the lady with the black bunny ears told my kids there were probably still eggs out in the seating area, fun. Red Chile beef empanada was delicious and so was the peach and strawberry and cream. I would recommend if your in the area or on your way to Tonto Forest stop by for a well deserved treat.

We had a hard time choosing what to order, so the girl at the counter gave us some recommendations. I'm pretty sure everything on the menu would be delicious. We'll definitely be back on our next drive through Strawberry! read more

Love this place! Have tried many of the empanadas and haven't found one I didn't like but Mountain Mama and lemon are my favorites so far!

I cannot recommend Pie Bar ENOUGH! A friend and I drove from Phoenix to Strawberry just get these Savory and Sweet miniature pies (I.e. empanadas). I has the Mountain Man and Chicken Pot Pie empanadas and they were BEYOND DELICIOUS! The best pie crust I have ever tasted. The service was excellent - everyone working there was very helpful and knowledgeable about each of the flavors. The ambiance was cute, a brightly colored building that had an immaculately clean bathroom. Do yourself a favor and make the trip to try this place! Take your appetite and take some of the home because they heat up great too! read more

The pies are awesome! My family likes to try different pies and they did not disappoint! We had the lemon, dutch apple, blueberry, and mixed berry! All were delicious! Service was awesome! We plan to make another stop before we head home. read more

Just stopped in for a coffee and ended up buying 3 empanadas. Already scarfed down the first one-artichoke dip. Amazing!! They have fruit and savory empanadas and pies, all home made. Highly recommend stopping in if you're driving through town. Thank you Pie Bar! For the great afternoon snack. read more

Wonderful hidden gem! We drive 2 hours to get these amazing empanadas!! The Apple is a great choice!

Piebar was outstanding for the best pies, employees and atmosphere. My husband and I were craving something sweet. So we picked a fresh blueberry pie . It was delicious. I use the word "was" because we ate the whole pie in 2 days lol. If they had 10 stars I would give it a 11. Thanks piebar. Now we know exactly were to go when we're in town read more

PIEbar AZ - Best pies in Payson/ pine 100% - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Strawberry, Arizona

Delicious empanadas. Chorizo and bean my favorites plus the strawberry empanadas for dessert. Great cute location!

The best pie I've had in a while! I think we pretty much tried everything on their menu and they all were delicious.

Very, very good savory empanadas. Wide selection of hot and ready hand pies. Nice people. Very fast to get in and out, faster than most drive thru windows. Great road trip stop. Nice outdoor seating area. Highly recommended. 2 of the empanadas made a fine meal, but they were so good I got a 3rd and was stuffed. Pretty good beer selection. Only neg was paying $6 (!) for a can of coffee. Will most definitely be back for the food, but won't buy that drink again. If you're hungry while headed north through Payson, skip the fast food chains there. If PIEbar will be open when you get there its well worth it to push on through to this little gem in Strawberry. read more

These hands down have pie that makes me drive from Waddell Az every day thank you pie bar

My wife and I went twice during our recent trip to the area. The "Mountain Man" is easily the best pick up and go breakfast before a hike that I've had in a while. What a great addition to Strawberry! read more

YUMMY AND AFFORDABLE! Must stop when visiting. Staff was super friendly and the area was very clean and cute!

Best place in town. I go every time I am in Pine, which is a lot. . Breakfast empanadas are one of my favorites.

Stumbled upon this gen after a long drive and a need for a pit stop. Soo happy we did, we tried the Buffalo Chicken, Chicken Pot Pie, Green Chili Pork, Pumpkin and Pineapple Upside down empanadas. We loved all of them, the dough was perfect in shape, color. texture and taste. Staff was friendly, out door seating was beautiful. read more

Wow was this good! I got the strawberry & cream pie... Hands down the best pie I've every had! I'll be back tomorrow

Very good. Many are spicy though, so if you don't like spicy keep that in mind. Definitely recommend.

This is a wonderful place to get authentic Empanadas that taste wonderful. My favorite is the "Mountain Baby" and Cherry ones. They made 50 of them for a big family party, everyone loved them and some even went to the PIEbar for more later!! Thank You, Kim and your staff for being so helpful. read more

Tried 6 different empanadas and loved them all. The sauces available for each were also really nuanced and Full of flavor. Mountain man and chicken pot pie were my favorite. The strawberry cream and Dutch apple minis were amazing... read more

This was our second time visiting the Pie Bar and it did not disappoint. The first time was a year ago driving through Strawberry on a road trip. This time we made a point of going there. We enjoyed several different pies and sat in their out door seating area. All of the varieties were delicious. This is a perfect lunch place especially if you want something other than sandwiches or burgers. They do hand pies/ empanadas like nobody else! read more

I heard so much about this place and how great the pies are. I am not sure what all the fuss was about. The crusts were not flaky and tasteless, a little egg wash and some sprinkle sugar would of helped. The fillings were barley there. Sorry to say we won't be back. read more

Outstanding Mt. Business live the Pies and Empanadas. Go for the Mountain man and for little one the Mt Baby!

This is empanada heaven!!! We are willing to drive over 200 miles for one of this empanadas. I am an empanada lover, I have tried empanadas from Chile, Argentina, Ecuador and Colombia and I can tell you that the empanadas in Strawberry Arizona are just as good as the ones mentioned before. Worth the drive every time. Their flavors and combination of ingredients are unique and each bite is an explosion of yumminess in your mouth. The mountain man, the buffalo chicken and the panda are my faves. The ladies taking your orders are always nice, talkative and fast! Good service and the MOST amazing comfort food. read more

Great food and really nice people, I eat there once a week. Try the molten chocolate you won't be disappointed.
