★★★★★ 5.0 Anna Leader · Feb 2026

We felt so lucky to come across this gem in the middle of nowhere! Incredible savory flavors, delicious flaky pastry, and unbelievable sweet treats as well. The pastries are a little pricey for their size at $6 each, but very worth it - we each got 3. There's a ton of seating, at tables and in armchairs by a roaring fireplace, as well as board games. Such a delight to have lunch here on a winter afternoon!

★★★★★ 5.0 Shay Sadovsky · Aug 2025

Delicious sweet and savory pies and delicious coffee! Also, there is plenty of seating, some board games and toys for kids, free wifi and a clean toilet. Such a gem!

Errrmmmgod. Let's talk about those hand pies. The selection: so many. You have sweet and savory. Crispy crust, generous filling. Choose breakfast, lunch, and dessert ... Or how about all three?! These are hand pie containers of joy that you can dine in with or optimally designed for on the go consumption! I basically double fisted the sausage gravy and the cherry pie one sitting. Will not disappoint!

★★★★★ 5.0 Sarah Blagg · Feb 2026

A cozy place run by friendly people! I had the potato & cheddar hand pie for breakfast: comforting flavors and super flaky pastry. Also got three of the sweet hand pies and they’re all delicious. Will definitely go back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Miriam Epstein · Feb 2026

I went to Mama Said for a quick breakfast. I had a sausage and egg handpie, as well as Japanese curry pie. Both were delicious and freshly made. I also had a maple spice latte, which was so comforting on the wet day. Cozy inside with a fireplace and sofa
