About

The Pie Cart refers to a culturally significant type of mobile food vendor in New Zealand, originating in the 1930s. These carts historically provided affordable hot meals, becoming a beloved Kiwi institution and a focal point for late-night social gatherings. While traditional pie carts are now an "endangered species," their legacy inspires modern artisan pie makers who continue to celebrate the craft of the New Zealand meat pie.
