Patrick’s Pies Goldstar Bakery Bethlehem

Love this pies! Always dream about them and try to make sure to have a stopover in the town when we drive through. My favorite pie is … nah wait ! I can’t even decided!!

Very disappointing experience, porc belly pie was in fact cheese and fat with two very little pieces of meat, taste was very average, we will never come back

We actually found this place by accident when we stopped here to find a quick snack for our family.Whilst looking for parking, we noticed this pie place because they proudly displayed their awards in front. Winner of the best pies for many years!My wife already ate, so she said I could pick the pies and she'll just have a few bites. As soon as we walked in, we saw a large display of the different pies they had. I picked two of their award-winning ones.Their famous mussel pie and I can't remember the other one because the mussel pie was too good. This is coming from someone that doesn't like seafood!Filling creamy and seasoned well, with delicious mussels. The pastry was pretty good too, but not as flaky as we liked. Also, I found them a little stingy with the filling.In saying that, they were the best pies we had in NZ and wish we could try more of their pies.

Man the pies are so nice. Went twice during my 3 day stay in Tauranga

Would not recommend brought a pie with mince and cheese on the package when i took a bite it was steak took it back to get it swapped over and they wouldn't swap it or give me a refund. bad business practice if you make a mistake fix it especially when we are paying over $6 for a pie. Will never be returning

Midweek late lunch so next to no cue (unlike when I've previously been there midday Saturday when it's very busy) an large range of award winning hot pies still a good selection even though it was later. A good range of cold soft drinks choose from to wash down the pie. Other baked goods available but I did have any, just a great mince pie and bottle of drink!

Pork belly pie filling to pastry ratio. Grim. More pastry than anything else.Upside : The pork pieces were nice as was the ample cheese but no apple sauce to speak of.

It was really good.Popular spot. Constant flow of customers.My mince and cheese pie didn't have much cheese.Husband was super happy with his seafood pie and his custard slice.I had a pink cream donut. Fresh.Husband had a s/roll but wasn't warm.

Awards everywhere!Before you get in you see banners hanging across the giant panes of windows. Take a step inside and you see a huge collection of awards; you can tell this dude Patrick is the real deal.Wasn't too busy but the staff was somewhat friendly? No small talk or anything not even a hello just the transaction and a thank you.I tried their supreme awarded sausage rolls and their chicken wings. The chicken was a bit of a greesy mess and it didn't have a lot of flavour. I ended up just caking it in tomato sauce. Wouldn't recommend the fried foods.The sausage roll was good. The pastry is what I think won it the award. Very nice, wouldn't drive all the way from Hamilton to try it but it's definitely worth a visit when you're by the Tauranga.
