"They have a fish pie on the menu that’s loaded with the best seafood and creamy sauce. You’ll feel like you’ve died and gone to heaven after just the first bite."

"If you're here for drool-worthy comfort food, the fish pie is guaranteed to hit the spot."

"The pastry on the pie was out of this world – it was perfectly made and tasted buttery and magnificent! I could sit there eating this pastry all day. Inside it had Smoked Trout, Prawns, Rockling, Sorrel – all these were baked in a creamy sauce and the addition of each individual flavouring from the prawns, trout and sorrell made for a great dish."

"Best of Melbourne: We find three of the city’s finest fish pies: Builder Arms ― Since the bar/bistro re-opened in 2012, the dish has cemented itself as a menu mainstay, where chunks of seafood — smoked salmon, prawns, rockling, gurnard or hapuka depending on the season — meet a zesty white sauce with a golden lid of flaky puff."

"The fish pie's chunky with lightly smoked trout and prawns and topped with a golden pillow of pastry, and fork-tender shoulder of lamb is big enough to keep Fred Flintstone satisfied."

"The best pies in Melbourne: Builders Arms Hotel ― Plump seafood pieces (depending on the season they could be rockling, ocean trout or prawn) are enveloped in a creamy lemon, dill and sorrel sauce. It’s all baked into a ramekin and crowned with a dreamy flaky puff pastry lid (make sure you save some lid for sauce mopping). This aristocratic pie has been on the menu since 2012, and we suspect Fitzroy would revolt if it were removed."

"Try the fish pie at The Builders Arms in Fitzroy. The filling is a seafood feast and includes smoked trout, prawns, rockling and sorrel. It is one of those meals that every Melburnian should try at least once in their lives."
on Meat Pie
"Order the fish-pie which is sensational and will sate the appetite of even the most corpulent."
on Meat Pie
"It was delicious and filled with fresh seafood (smoked trout, rockling, prawns and sorrel), a creamy but light white sauce and flaky pastry on top. It was a substantial serve as well and I was high fiving myself big time on my selection."
