27 Sept 2025 · Pie Review - My Baker Newcastle NSW !
9
Great flavour, let down by structural integrity - get the C&B but bring a knife and fork
$7 cheese and bacon pie (the 'Australian standard' to rate by). The 9/10 is the flavour score. It also got 2/10 for structural integrity (undercooked, fell apart in hand) and 8.5/10 for meat-to-gravy ratio. The overall graphic plots a single pie at about 6/10 in the Bakery quadrant (~$8) with 'Recommendation - Get the C&B'. The title says 'My Baker Newcastle', but the video and frames show Morpeth Cottage Bakehouse.
