Ale Pie House in Avondale - Not looking Good on Yelp

Cheshire, that menu does look good but I think its for a pizza place in England. :-)

Oh my goodness, glad you noticed that Kickback!  I am afraid that is a bit too far to travel for me and it is my guess that they will not deliver.  lol   My sister and her hubby are going to try them out.  I suppose I just better have them pick me up a menu.

Anyone else think their Facebook page is incredibly sloppy and lacks any sense of energy at all.

Funny Ben Says I drove by the Ale Pie House tonight 6:45pm and it seemed full with a lot of cars parked across the street? Why so negative towards this business remember Rome wasn't built in a day. Mellow Mushroom sure is taking their time to build. If Ale Pie could get it together maybe they would be alright even when Mellow Mushroom comes to Avondale.

There's obviously tons of places I like....13 Gypsies, Bold Bean, Tres Leches, Orsay, Black Sheep, Cozy Tea, etc...

What I don't like is half-assed attempts at opening restaurants by people who think "gee, opening restaurants look easy, let's make a shitty product at 1000% of what it costs to make, not train our staff, be too lazy to think of a good name/make a real Facebook page, and then lets be surprised when we epically fail"

^No, you love that, because it gives you a chance to complain about it on the internet.

This is the correct URL for their site:

And the menu: http://alepiehouse.com/images/AlePieHouse_menu.pdf

So, my sister and her husband visited the Ale Pie House yesterday for lunch and got a pizza later for dinner.  They also brought me a takeout and some pizza.   Here is what they had to say.  Their in restaurant experience was okay.  The first thing they remarked about was the fact that the restaurant was playing "Indian" music which kind of put them in the mood for Indian food as opposed to Italian. lol  Their server was definitely new and not familiar with the menu, but nice.  There is no lunchtime menu or special so they ordered from the regular menu and just got a chicken parmesan and meatball sandwich and brought home a meatball sandwich for me.  They liked the sandwiches.  The meatball one I had was good as meatball sandwiches go.  The ingredients they used were all fresh and of top quality which is what made their sandwich better than others I have tasted.  The sandwich was large and will make two lunches for me.  Later they picked up a pepperoni pizza which was very tasty.  It was better than the fare one gets from places like Pizza Hut, Domino's etc.  The ingredients were good and the cheese was top quality.  It had a nice subtle garlic flavor to the sauce.   We would get the pizza again.  Plan to try some of the pasta dishes soon.  I believe the fact that they deliver will help them find their niche in Avondale.  I would choose their pizza over the others who deliver in a heartbeat.  It was true old fashioned N.Y. style.

They offer vegan cheese! It's only the second pizza place (Carmines) in the Riverside/downtown area to do that (besides Sun Ray).
