The best pie in Lorne, highly recommend if you are fans of pie. A variety of pie available. Price is reasonable. We tried Guinness beef and cheesy meat pie, both are good, but Guinness beef is outstanding.

Exceeded expectations. We had a variety of pies amongst the 4 of us.. steak & onion, beef & Guiness, garlic prawn, steak bacon & cheese, scallop mornay and cheeseburger pie. They were all delicious and I can describe as generously chunky in rich sauces... the prawns, the beef, the scallops. Service was friendly and fast. Latte was good. oh yes, and my little girl finished off lunch with a delicious chocolate-rainbow-sprinkled donut. Only regret is too full to try the rosemary lamb pie. Great value, thumbs up :)

Very nice coffee, such pretty take away cups as well. Bacon and egg roll was filled to the brim, no skimping on any ingredients, really nice. The lady that served us as well was really good at her job, great customer service :)

I just did a full lap of Australia in my EV rating vanilla slices along the way and the Great Ocean Road Bakery has hands down the best vanilla slice. The pastry was perfect as was the custard, soft and creamy, and the passionfruit icing was, well, the icing on the cake! The egg and bacon rolls are fantastic too and the Lorne pier the perfect place to consume said items!

Amazing pies! Had the curried scallop and a creamy prawn pie and both were amazing. Not cheap at $12 and $10 but worth paying the extra. They don’t charge for sauce either.
