Review:
DUB Pies offers a taste of "down under" on the Brooklyn waterfront. This cafe/bakery known for its Australian and New Zealand-style meat pies is a great alternative to a burger and at under five bucks, quite a steal, especially for young families with little ones in tow. We saw quite a few on our visit.
A classic Shepherd's Pie comes topped with perfectly whipped mashed potatoes and is almost too pretty to eat. But dive in for the pieces of beef cooked in a savory sauce. DUB Pies calls it the perfect "pub grub" and we'd have to agree. We also tried the Chicken Pie. Think classic chicken pot pie with tender slices of chicken, potato, onion and carrots in a thick chicken gravy.
DUB Pies also makes a Steak and Cheese Pie, a Curry Vegetarian Pie for veggie lovers, and for breakfast - a bacon, egg and cheese pie. All come with a flaky and quite buttery tasting shell making it extremely difficult to eat just one!

Great Aussie pies
Having just returned from Australia, I was missing my fix of meat pies. The Dubpies crew delivered steaming hot authentic goodness within an hour of my call, and the product was superb as always. No hesitation in recommending the food or the service...

Abysmal sausage rolls
Don't go there expecting Australian food. This place is all New Zealand all the time. I don't know what they think they're playing at, but at $3.00 I expect a sausage roll to be longer than 3" and have some taste. Barry McKenzie needs to go home for a while I think.

Superb food and service
As an Australian living in NYC, I've found DUBPies to be a lifeline. Superb pies - love the Bacon & Egg breakfast ones especially, authentic coffee (I was dying for a Flat White before I found DUB), and great just to be surrounded by the accents.
