    I had stumbled into this place by chance because I had just dropped off my friend and her pet's remains at the animal hospital in the same building for cremation. My friend was just in tears, sobbing and angry and I thought to myself, hey maybe a pie would help. Well, it didn't really, but that was to be expected if you had to drop off your dearly departed pet baby to be cremated but at the least after she looked at the pies in the fridge she stopped crying for a minute to ooo and awe and picked a pie. I myself picked the Elvis which was really good! I think it was banana, peanut and chocolate? Whatever it was, the King would have approved! These pies were quite pricey, but the quality made up for it. If I were to go back, I would probably buy a pie by the slice because it is cheaper than buying an individual pie and seems like it is only slightly smaller for about half the price. This place is somewhat hidden as it is at the back of the parking lot in the basement. But at least there is free parking.

    The Pie Hole is a neat little shop. Pre-ordered & it was ready to go when Si arrived. Bought this Blueberry Cream Crumble for a gathering. Hope it's worth the cost! Cut a slice for my son....tasted a bite. It's flavourful, but not sure I would spend that much on a pie in future. Was worth trying.

    Turkey Dinner Pie ($43): Thanksgiving in 9" round!
    Jack W.

    === 1. VERDICT/VALUE 4.5 stars: you're not in Walmart land of pies any longer - man, the prices are high but quality doesn't come cheap! If you're looking for a variety of unique flavours in good pies and good service, the only hole you should be going into...is The Pie Hole! === 2. FOOD If you're looking for exotic and standard flavours of pies, The Pie Hole may have what you're looking for - frozen/fresh in 9" size, in a mini (4"?) format, or in a hand pie format (it's like a Stromboli). On this latest visit, we tried: Raspberry Cream Crumble ($32): one of the signature pies - a great dessert - a lot of raspberry with not-too-sweet cream in a thick, flaky crust. Bourbon Pecan Pumpkin Pie ($34): a neat twist on the traditional pumpkin pie with pecan crumble drizzled with bourbon - a nice touch indeed! Chicken Pot Pie ($7.50 hand pie): better than the Costco version - moist, yet just as thick and chunky! Turkey Dinner Pie ($43): like someone wrapped Thanksgiving dinner inside a pie: shredded turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce all in one - surprisingly good...but bring a little extra gravy/cranberry with you :) === 3. SERVICE The service was great on the phone and in-person. Easy pickup is available for pre-orders (especially during Thanksgiving), and service is good and fast for fresh/frozen pies you order in-person. === 4. ENVIRONMENT It's really a storefront; walk down stairs to the retail level and be met with freezers containing pre-orders and a frozen pie selection, a fridge with mini pies, and a display case of fresh pies. It is spacious, but I would leave the wheelchairs and baby strollers behind given the descent into the retail area. Parking involves a spacious private lot (which is full on holidays).

    Bacon cheeseburger hand pie. So good
    Carolyn L.

    Still my favorite pie place. Just tried the key lime pie and it was to die for! It was tart but not overly so, with just a tinge of sweetness. Super delicious. For the savory pie, my go to is still the bacon cheeseburger. Just so yummy. Somehow I prefer the hand pie version more than the usual pie. Maybe it takes a shorter time to heat up in the oven so that my tummy can be filled faster? Check the website for the pies available. Ask the staff if you do not see the pie you wanted in the store. It could be in the kitchen area.

    Banana Cream Pie
    Eric C.

    If it's a pie, they probably offer it. This past weekend, my wife and daughter wanted pie. So where do you go for pie in the Burnaby-New West area? There's only one answer to that. The Pie Hole. After hmming and hawing over what to get from their vast selection of frozen as well as freshly baked savoury and sweet pies, the family chose a Banana Cream Pie. It looked absolutely delicious. Taking the pie to a new level, they sprinkle banana bread over top which not only looks pleasant but also adds another texture and flavour to the pie. When dessert time came, we busted that box open. My daughter cut the first slice out, albeit crooked and mildly infuriating (LOL), and I could see the luscious filling with lil banana slices in it. I haven't had a banana cream pie in ages and almost forgot what it tasted like. Once I got my piece and broke away a piece of the super flakey crust, I remembered why I don't get banana cream pie. It's really sweet. This is not The Pie Holes fault. The quality of the pie is excellent and it tastes very nice. It might have been the best banana cream pie I've ever had. It's just banana cream pie is sweet and I lost my sweet tooth decades ago. It's been a while since I tried their savoury pies, but I know I enjoyed them. If you're like me, stick to the savoury ones. If you enjoy the sweet pies, you'll find some awesome ones here.

    Handpies $7, beef bourginon, sooo tasty
    Liz O.

    This place smells like heaven. Every pie I've had here tastes amazing. The handpies, sweet and savoury are all fantastic! Try the turkey dinner pie. Amazing!

    Simply the best pie I have ever mowed...so moist and chocked full of spritly peaches nestled between a flaky sweet crust similar to shortbread. Lovely staff, superb pie! Put Pie Hole pie in ur face-hole.today!

    vegan chocolate hazelnut pie (Halloween breakfast in bed)
    Emily S.

    Their Vegan chocolate hazelnut pie: the filling is amazing the crust not so much. I can't remember the last time I didn't enjoy a dessert crust. Just too lumpy and bumpy bad texture and didn't add anything to compliment the filling. If it was just on filling it would be a five star. I look forward to trying their other vegan options and potentially changing rating. Very excited to find new dessert options in new west/Burnaby area.

    Hot chocolate festival feature, pie and cookie display

    I attended The Pie Hole today for their hot chocolate festival. I tried both the; milk chocolate banana flavoured, and white chocolate apple pie featured options. Each one was paired with a small pie. The banana chocolate pie was delicious, as was the apple pie. Both were made with care and quality ingredients. The beverages were equally as tasty, and the vendor perfected the flavours. Their staff was helpful, friendly, attentive, and excited for the festival. Ambiance was comfortable and casual given the location. I also purchased their Thai chicken savoury pie to go. Their baked goods selection was hard to resist. A must try for any pie enthusiast.

    Vegan chocolate hazelnut pie
    Poonam R.

    Omg this pie is delicious! You won't even notice that it is gluten free and vegan. The chocolate mouse inside is creamy, light, and is screaming chocolate goodness in every bite. The crust is nutty and surprisingly doesn't break easily when cutting it into slices. Can't wait to go back!

    I was too late to pre-order online so had to make sure I got there at opening yesterday to snatch a pie. Got there about 10 mins prior to opening and there was already a lineup! I was lucky to snatch this amazing Apple Brown Butter Rosemary pie. It was a hit with the family as there were no slices leftover. I was planning on taking a picture of my slice with ice cream but completely forgot cause I was too excited to eat it and I devoured it without thinking. Added bonus: Got 10% off because I was already following @thepiehole on IG! I also decided to grab a Chicken Pot Pie for lunch. My first time trying one of their savoury pies. It was delicious as expected! Packed with great ingredients, and can't get enough of that crust! Will definitely grab the larger size next time.

    Fraser location.

    You'll have to shut your pie hole after having these pies! They will leave you speechless! I recently checked out the Vancouver and Burnaby storefronts and in both occasions, I was welcomed with the glorious whiff of the baked crust goodness. The smell was so intoxicating, I could hardly wait to try them out! Their offerings include hand pies, savoury pies, pies by the slice, and whole pies (fresh and frozen) that you can take home to enjoy with family and friends (or if you want it all to yourself, that works too!). They have traditional pies like good ol' apple and blueberry pies, to super creative ones like a bacon cheeseburger pie (say whaat?) And even vietnamese coffee pie! My partner and I tried out the potato and leek hand pie, and a slice of their blueberry basil and goatcheese pie. A helpful tip: WARM THESE BAD BOYS UP! It makes such a difference and brings back those crisp, flaky textures that great pies have. I have to commend them on their crust: it's just soo good that writing it in words does not do it justice. You'd have to try it out yourself!

The menu has shrunk considerably and their business days/hours are also a lot less than what it was previously. The drinks were not as tasty as they used to be. My Blue Rose drink was the best of the bunch and I would say even that was just OK. I enjoyed the Lychee jelly in my drink. That was probably the best part of the drink. The liquid part was kinda "meh" for me. I think the best thing we ordered was the matcha soft serve ice cream. On the flip side, there was a guy playing piano there and they were taking requests. I suggested Demon Slayer and the guy played the famous "Gurenge" song by Lisa from season one of Demon Slayer. That was kinda cool. He was a very good pianist. Great way to liven the atmosphere. Also, there was a guy who came around and gave us all tiny paper cranes. It's nothing much, but still always nice to be gifted with anything at all. Business must be hard for them. It would sure be nice to see them return to how they used to be, with a bigger menu, tastier drinks and more days/hours again. We love this place for the manga/ anime vibes that it exudes, and love the Matcha soft serve ice cream they sell here. Really wanna give this place a higher rating but the drinks were really not up to par this time, and as much as we love the Matcha ice cream, it is not by itself enough to warrant giving out a higher rating. If they could just improve the quality of their drinks again...then even if they menu remains limited, at least if everything they serve is of good quality...that would be enough to merit a higher rating.
