Soo and Maggie blog about our adventures in San Diego and other parts of the world.
Chicken Pie Shop 2633 El Cajon Boulevard San Diego, Ca 92104
Since 1938
Roosters and hens adorn the walls and shelves. Parking lot in the rear. Order to go or stay to eat. The pies are where it’s at here. Can’t go wrong with any of them. It’s just hard to pick which one for dessert.
There is a reason their chicken pie is world famous. The freshly made crust, tender juicy chicken combined with flavorful turkey and the best chicken gravy to top it off. May seem simple but boy oh boy I’ve never found a better one ever!
My favorite sides are the cole slaw, (it’s all in the home made dressing) corn and biscuits. Each time I visit I always try to get myself to order something different, sometimes I do, but then I miss the chicken pot pie. So I just order a set of four to go, then I can have them for lunch at home, perfect!

It’s obvious everyone that works here is happy and it shows in everything they do. Makes for such a pleasant atmosphere.

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs.

A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting.
Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.

Awesome chicken art! Does it taste the same when you bake at home? I prefer to go to the shop so I can get a delicious roll with it too.
It does taste the same! And the gravy does as well. I include corn to make the meal complete.The only problem is the roll is missing!
