After travelling around Australia and eating pies every day for six months, Pieminister founders Jon & Tris returned to the UK with one thing on their mind: to make great British pies. They opened a small pie shop in Bristol, making all the pies by hand in the small kitchen using only the finest quality, sustainably sourced ingredients.

The shop was a hit and is now one of 9 Pieminister restaurants. The small kitchen expanded to a busy factory (still based in Bristol) where we now produce around 100,000 pies a week(!)

To this day, we still only use 100% British, free range meat in all of our pies and all of them are Great Taste Award Winners too. We believe everyone deserves to try one of our pies, so whether you’re at one of our pie & mash places, in a pie pub, at a festival or at a market, you can still indulge in a proper Pieminister pie.
