LJ's Pie Cafe - LONG JETTY

This is my favorite pie shop. We always make a stop when we're coming up from Sydney. However, when we came this time, the shop was no longer there. There was no indication of whether it had relocated or permanently closed.

I finally tried this highly praised pie shop and I'm glad I did! The burgundy pie is the best I've ever had, the chili pie had a spicy kick to it just as I was warned. And the Bushman pie was a taste sensation! I appreciate that the pies are extremely fresh and not old and soggy. Stop by and grab a pie, you'll love it!

The pies were just okay; I have had better from other local makers. However, the attitude of the staff was not appealing at all, which is why I feel compelled to provide this feedback. The service was slightly arrogant, and as a customer, it was not a pleasant experience. Ultimately, how you choose to treat your customers is up to you, but because of this negative experience, we will not be returning. A bad attitude can truly ruin an otherwise good experience with a business.

When I heard about these pies I had to try them (I am known for driving extremely long distances for something special from a bakery . LJ 's did not disappoint! The family-friendly atmosphere was great, and the whole family loved the pies, even my finicky 4 year old son loved them. I got talking to the chef (quite a character! and his family. It turns out they have a wholesale side to the business with ready to bake frozen pies that they sell to other bakeries and cafe 's. I ended up bringing a whole esky full back home to Canberra. Needless to say it wasn 't long before they were all eaten, and we loved every one of them! I 'll have to take a couple of eskies next time to fit all the orders I have from the guys at work. Great experience, great food. I 'll be back very soon... Thanks LJ 's.

Now called Long Jetty Bakery! If you are after a bacon and egg roll for breakfast or a massive Double Beefy Burger this is the place to visit.
