2nd Avenue Pies & Bakery is a bakery at 84 Second Avenue in Tauranga Central, with a Google rating of 4.2 from 73 reviews. Customers mention the pies most often, including a vegetarian pie, and the doughnuts.
A good pie shop is judged on its pastry and filling, and the best pies are usually baked in batches through the day. Vegetarian and other fillings are worth asking about, since the choice can change between visits. Bakeries that serve people on a lunch break or on the way home tend to sell their first trays early, so a visit later in the day may mean fewer choices. When choosing one, look at the pastry edges and ask which items came out most recently.
