We had a great time selling our pies at the Taste of Birmingham event in Cannon Hill Park from 16th – 18th July. Our Pieoneer’s were on hand to serve hungry customers and array of our top selling pies.
Pie bloggers the Pierateers have been hit with Urban Pie fever – even the pie experts love our pies!

We were really impressed with the Highcross Pieday Friday winners photo for today.
Can you think of a catchy caption to go with it? The prize for the best one selected by our Urban Pie team is a free meal for 2!
We would love to claim that pies were invented in this country, but we’re afraid that the first pie dates back to Egyptian times. Oh well…that doesn’t mean that we enjoy them any less does it?
If you fancy celebrating St George’s Day with a good old fashioned pie then Urban Pie is the place to go. You can even sit outside and enjoy yours in the sunshine!
We were in awe of the Urban Ballet flash mob who broke into dance outside our Bullring store on Friday. The troop did two ballet performances throughout the day giving shoppers in the Bullring an unexpected surprise.
We think that working as a professional pie taster ranks as one of the best jobs in the world. We noticed this article recently which describes a day in the life of pie taster Ian Kay, where he gets to sample up to six pies in one sitting. Thumbs up to Ian in his choice of vocation. He must love pies nearly as much as we do.

Urban Pie, Highcross welcomed BBC Leicester into the store for a leaving party last night. They had a great time tucking ito our tasty pies. We welcome parties of all sizes, so if you have an upcoming birthday party, team meeting or you just fancy a nice meal out with friends let us know.
We want to wish you all a great St Patrick’s Day and hope the luck of the Irish is with you today. Let us know what you get up to…we’d love to know if you have as much fun as PieMan did with his Irish dancing antics last weekend!
Pie Man has been taking Irish dancing lessons in preparation for St Patrick’s Day. We reckon he’s pretty good…what do you think?
