Pie shops specialize in selling pies, but may also offer other baked goods and beverages. They are popular in the UK and Australia, but can be found in other countries. Some pie shops also offer dine-in options and serve breakfast and lunch. Meat pies and sausage rolls are also common offerings.
A pie shop is a type of food retail business that sells a limited menu of take-out or “fast” foods, but focuses primarily on pies. Although most pie shops sell traditional pies, there are some shops that specialize in other types of baked goods. Many pie shops also sell beverages and allow customers to dine in-store, despite the take-out nature of the establishment. Pie shops are probably more popular in parts of the UK and Australia than anywhere else in the world. However, it’s not impossible to find cake shops in other countries, such as the United States and Canada.
Most cake shops sell the traditional sweet cake types that we think of when we think of cakes. Depending on the pie shop, customers may find common pie types such as cherry pies, apple pies, and blueberry pies for sale. Other typical pies include lemon pies, blackberry pies, and pumpkin pies. Some pastry bakers might blend fruit to create interesting flavor combinations, or they might create unique cake recipes for their shops. Other pastry bakers might sell exotic types of cakes made with fruit indigenous to their part of the world, but uncommon in other parts of the world.
Not all cake shops only sell traditional cakes. For example, some bakeries also sell pastries or pastries, which are pastry-wrapped baked goods similar to traditional pies but with crusts that encase all of the filling ingredients. Also, not all cake shops sell sweet cakes or even cakes made with fruits and other common types of ingredients. Meat pies, for example, are similar to traditional pies but their fillings consist of meat and other savory ingredients. A meat pie might consist of pork, chicken, beef, or liver, and usually includes various types of vegetables.
Sausage rolls are another common type of food served in bakeries. Usually, sausage rolls consist of sausage enclosed with puff pastry wraps. These sandwiches could be served hot or cold.
Although many pie shops are designed for ordering takeout, some have menu items as well as tables and booths that allow you to dine in the restaurant. For example, customers might be able to order whole pies, or they might order individual slices of pie to eat in the pie shop. Depending on the sweet shop, customers may be able to order coffee and other beverages as well. A few pie shop menus make the shop a popular destination for breakfast and lunch. Typically, pie shops are not common place for lunch or dinner.
