"If you’re venturing further south to Milford Sound, you won’t want to miss Miles Better Pies in Te Anau. The perfect road trip snack, these are some of the best pies in South Island and, arguably, New Zealand. Try the curry chicken pie and thank us later."

"Venison one and Lamb and Mint were both delicious - packed full with nice tender meat and with light pastry that you hardly noticed. So if you're visiting Te Anau a Miles Better Pie is a must!"

"We headed to Miles Better Pies for the best meat pies in NZ. We thoroughly enjoyed the amazing hearty pie on a bench along Lake Te Anau."

Chu On Dish

"Encased in a flaky, buttery crust was really tender, moist pieces of veal with a savory gravy. After my first bite, I immediately wanted to stop the bus to go back for more. I never thought much about meat pies but I guess I just hadn't eaten one that was made this good."

Kristina Connolly

"Warm and delicious meat pies!"
