Happened to be in the shopping center on our way to a hike and picked up 2 of the veggie pasties to take as a mid hike snack. Absolutely delicious. We will be stopping by to try all the other flavors and pick up snacks for our hikes from now on. So much flavor.

We have been eating Holly's meat pies for many years. They're a great fast dinner when pressed for time, or just lazy. We usually get a dozen at a time which lasts us 4 months or so. (I ration them!) Highly recommend!
The three stars for "atmosphere" is just because there is no in-store eating area. You can get a to-go pie heated up, though. Odd that Google only allows me to recommend "All the vegetarian pasties." Everything is good!

Been here three times so far, and going back again today, for vegan pies. Glad to see not only one vegan option but two choices; including one mild and one spicy. Perfect for my wife and I. While the price for the size of the item is a little high it's not out of line with current food prices. Hopefully in the future we will see a bit of a drop--$14 for a small business hand-made pot pie is about $4.00, at least, higher than I expected. The two times we came here we bought 4 and 6 frozen vegan pies. Service is quick and staff are very friendly. We've not had to wait longer than 5 seconds for one or even two staff to ask what I wanted to order. From ordering to walking out to the car is 1 to 3 minutes; maybe. The entryway, floor and shopping area/glass is clean even with the doors open. For anyone needing a quick main dish or side dish this is a great option.

Although the crust was very good, the filling had Very Little MEAT. The price for a pie and dessert was about $15, which would be fair if there was more meat in the pie. The woman that was behind the counter helped me understand what the pies were since I'd never been there before, and was friendly and helpful.

TIP: They serve hot pies at the store, in addition to frozen pies for cooking at home.
AMAZING vegan and vegetarian hand pies! I've never been a fan of "hand pies" / pasties because IMO the crusts tend to be hard and dry. But because GTG offers vegan ones, we gave them a try. We ordered all the vegan ones as well as all the vegetarian ones. Theirs are SO DIFFERENT and WONDERFUL! The crusts are substantial enough to hold in the fillings and truly be hold-able while eating, but they are also crumbly and they don't suck the moisture from your mouth like most hand pie crusts do. The fillings are moist but not drippy, and the level of herbs/spices is very good.
Depending on your preference for desserts, you might or might not like the apple and cherry turnovers. We tried only the cherry one so far. It wasn't highly sweet and also not super juicy/gummy. We're going to give the apple a try in our next order. We probably won't order the cherry one again because we prefer a little more "thick juice" with the fruit. The pecan bar was a 5 out of 5 and the brownie bar was a 4.
Here's a tip that you might find useful. Before eating, I thawed the pies in the fridge overnight. For 2 pies, I microwaved them for a few minutes to warm the fillings, then baked them for about 20 minutes to crisp up the crust without burning them. For a single pie I do the microwaving step, then pop it into the air fryer for about 10 minutes.
I highly recommend giving GTG a try!

Unfortunately, there's no place to sit and enjoy your pie, and there's a limited number of pies that can be heated and eaten right away. The pies are frozen, so you can bake them whenever you're ready for a delicious hot pie from your own oven.

Finally had an opportunity to try Holly's Meat Pies today and decided to go with the Vegan Veggie Pasty. It was so tasty that I didn't even stop to get a proper photo for this review. Service was fast and friendly and the pie came out piping hot. To my surprise there was a serving of each of the sauces that they sell, and they were both absolutely delicious! It is safe to say that for a shop with meat in the name that they make some spectacular vegan food. The crust was flavorful and flaky and the filling was fantastic. I look forward to going back and will be recommending to friends.
Incredible! We had the beef and the lamb pasty. The filling is hearty and flavorful but what really impressed me was how much moisture stayed in the filling without soaking into the crust or bursting out when we baked it. The crust was very tasty and baked perfectly.
In short I can not recommend these pies enough. Made with love and masterful technique.
