The Top 7 Pie Shops in Vietnam to Get That Unexpected Slice of Delight

Pies aren’t probably the first thing that comes to mind when we talk about foods in Vietnam. There aren’t that many spots in the country, but I strongly believe that these flaky and buttery delights deserve to be recognized. 

Many expats have brought their own pie traditions with them, giving Vietnam the chance to try out their own version of “home” and “comfort food.”

So, if you’re looking for something different than the usual street food, these pie shops in Vietnam deserve a spot on your map.

Address: 63 Nguyễn Cừ, Thảo Điền, Quận Hai, Hồ Chí Minh 

Phone: +84343430994

Operating hours: 

  • Monday to Saturday 8:00 am – 8:00 pm
  • Sunday 8:00 am – 7:00 pm

It all started in 2020 when the founders from Australia were missing a taste of home, so they decided to bring authentic Aussie pies to Vietnam. 

Unlike some cafés that only include a couple of pie flavors at the back of the menu, this shop is all about it.

Their menu has some classics like creamy chicken, Aussie steak, and chicken curry — but there are also some fun flavors that you don’t always find in Vietnam, such as salmon or the hearty bird pie.

What most people love about their pies is the perfect balance of flavors — and yes, you can grab mashed potatoes or peas on the side to complete that classic Australian pub experience.

Their pies are freshly baked daily, and you often find their popular items, like the Aussie steak, sold out early.

Pro tip:
You can order their frozen pies and bake them at home. It’s convenient, especially if you don’t live near the shop and you suddenly crave their flavors.

Address: 137 Nguyễn Đình Chiểu, Phường Võ Thị Sáu, Quận 3, Hồ Chí Minh

Phone: +84769907991

Operating hours: Monday to Sunday 7:00 am – 10:30 pm

The Melbourne Café offers a lively café comfort with an Aussie spirit right in Saigon. It’s the spot where a good coffee pairs perfectly with a hearty Aussie pie on the side. 

True to its Aussie roots, its pie selection doesn’t disappoint. Their options include meat pies with chunky fillings and a buttery crust. There are no fusion flavors or anything, just their faithful take on the authentic Melbourne pies.

They offer three variants of Aussie pies: beef and mushroom, beef, and vegetarian. Alongside these options, you can ask for extra cheese or a side of fries. 

Pro tip:
Beat the brunch crowd if you don’t like longer waiting times. Many suggest early hours or late afternoons if you want a more peaceful vibe.

3. The Pie Shop Hanoi

Address:  The Clubhouse, G2&G3 Ciputra International City, Hà Nội, Tây Hồ

There aren’t many specialty pie shops in Hanoi, or even in the whole of Vietnam. But if you ask around for the best place to get tasty pies, whether online or from the locals, The Pie Shop in Hanoi is always at the top of the list.

Their pie menu is pretty diverse. If you’re a classic lover, there’s bacon and cheese, chicken and mushroom, peppered steak, and more. 

But if you’re looking for something different to the taste buds, there are special flavors like steak and kidney, spiced curried veg, and more.

These pies can be perfectly paired with sides like mashed potatoes or hand-cut fries. There’s a lighter option too, like the fresh green salad with balsamic vinaigrette.

They sell frozen versions, too!

Pro tip:
The shop also makes mini pies available in all fillings. These are perfect for parties or to keep in the freezer for a quick and easy snack.

4. Union Jack’s Fish and Chips – Hồ Chí Minh

Address: 10 Nguyễn Bá Lân, Thảo Điền, Thủ Đức, Hồ Chí Minh 

Phone: +84767286183

Operating hours: Thursday to Tuesday 9:00 am – 9:30 pm

Union Jack’s Fish and Chips is known for their hearty, comforting food, just as you’d expect from a proper English-inspired kitchen.

Hearing the shop’s name makes you think about battered cod and thick-cut chips, but let me tell you that Jack’s pies also steal the show.

The steak, ale, and blue cheese pie is the savory powerhouse that many frequent customers love. It’s rich, and it has that kind of flavor that would require a pint on the side.

If you want a specialty flavor, you can opt for the Jack’s Fisherman’s pie. It’s made with ling cod and snapper fish in a creamy velouté sauce and topped with mashed potatoes.

Their pie lineup lies on the heavier side, so you make sure you forget about calories when you come here!

Pro tip:
Most of their pies are often sold out early. The trick here is to pre-order via their website before the shop opens.

5. Pate Chaud SGC Saigon – Hồ Chí Minh

Address: 05H Tôn Đức Thắng, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh

Phone: +842838200705

Operating hours: Monday to Sunday 7:00 am – 9:00 pm

If you’re not feeling these hearty Aussie or English pies, maybe Vietnam’s own version of pie will do the trick.

Unlike other meat pies that are traditionally large, these are smaller and hand-held.

The Vietnamese pie, locally known as Pâté Chaud, is a flaky, pork-filled version of the classic French-Vietnamese “hot pie”. 

Pate Chaud SCG is one of the pioneer shops of this local favorite, running since the 1930s and led by the fourth generation of the same founding family.

Their pies are coined as the classic “childhood snack” by many locals in the area — the kind of afternoon snack that parents would bring home to their kids after work.

Today, the Pâté Chaud has become a popular breakfast item among office workers, so the shelf is often emptied out as early as 10 AM.

Pro tip:

Try to head early in the morning if you want better chances of scoring the pies. Otherwise, you can always go for their frozen packs to bring home.

6. Appie Saigon – Hồ Chí Minh

Phone: +84868840887

Operating hours: Monday to Sunday 2:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Appie Saigon is that low-key spot in Saigon that offers sweet and savory American pies. Everything, from crust to fillings, is made from scratch daily.

In addition to their signature salty and sweet series, they also launch seasonal flavors with fun and quirky variations.

Their pies come in four sizes, from 7 cm minis to a full loaf measuring 23 cm in size.

Appie puts its pies first before anything else, so their dedication to freshness means that once the pies sell out, that’s it until the next batch.

Pro tip:
Appie offers free delivery within an 8 km radius for combo orders or a minimum order of two medium-sized pies.

Address: 168 Khánh Hội, Phường 9, Quận 4, Hồ Chí Minh 

Phone: +84777383979

Operating hours: Monday to Sunday 6:00 am – 10:00 pm

At Sugar Town Bakery, you would walk into a display of birthday cakes, frosted creations, and other elegant desserts. However, in their pastry lineup, you’ll find them offering the classic Vietnamese pork pie, Pâté Chaud.

The flavor of their Pâté Chaud leans toward clean and fresh, with just the right amount of spice and saltiness.

While their pies are not considered the bakery’s signature item, regulars know it’s worth it. Locals often grab  Pâté Chaud as a grab-and-go bite in the morning with a takeaway coffee.

Pro tip:
Grab a Pâté Chaud along with something sweet from the shelf. It’s a fun savory-sweet contrast that’s worth a try.
