Pie shop
[1] A form of specialised bakery, or in more recent times purely a retail outlet selling reheated cooked pies, pie shops in Australia usually sell meat pies, sausage rolls, pasties and other pastry-wrapped baked goods.The growth of hot bread shops (direct sale bakeries, often franchises) in Australia has largely supplanted the specialist pie shop.Pie shops are mostly concentrated in the North of England, particularly the North West and sell meat pies, sandwiches, fresh soups and cakes.In particular, Wigan and Bolton are home to local chains, including Greenhalgh's Craft Bakery.In recent years, companies such as Greggs and West Cornwall Pasty Company have taken the business model used by independent pie shops and expanded nationwide.
