Fat Bastard Pies
Invercargill's legendary pie shop — crafting bold, flavour-packed pies from scratch daily on Tay Street since 2015.
A Pie Shop Like No Other
Fat Bastard Pies has earned a cult following across Southland and beyond for their unapologetically bold approach to the humble Kiwi pie. Founded in Invercargill in 2015, this family-owned bakery on Tay Street has grown from a local favourite into a nationally recognised pie destination — winning multiple awards at the NZ Bakels Supreme Pie Awards and building a loyal fanbase that stretches well beyond the deep south.
Every pie is made from scratch on-site using quality New Zealand ingredients, with a focus on generous fillings, buttery pastry, and creative flavour combinations that set them apart from the ordinary bakery pie.
The Menu
Signature Pies
The lineup includes classics done right alongside inventive creations you won't find anywhere else. The Steak and Cheese is a bestseller — packed with slow-cooked beef and a generous cheese topping. The Magic Steak & Mushroom is a fan favourite with its rich, savoury filling, while the Skinny Indian Butter Chicken Pie brings a fragrant twist that's become one of their most talked-about offerings.
Beyond Pies
While pies are the star, Fat Bastard also serves sausage rolls, sweet treats, coffee, and a small selection of cabinet food. It's a proper bakery — just one with an outsized personality and a laser focus on doing pies better than anyone else.
Pie Club — Nationwide Delivery
