🏆 CAN WE DO IT AGAIN, NORTHLAND?! 💚

Last year, you absolute legends voted Hello Pickle the More FM Northland Customer Choice Award winner at the Northland Business Excellence Awards and it honestly meant so bloody much to us 🥹

Because this award isn’t decided by judges..
It’s decided by YOU 🫵
Our customers. Our regulars. The people who come in for a coffee, trust us with your catering, grab a pie, tell your mates about us, and have backed this little Pickle through everything. 🥹

And nominations for 2026 are officially OPEN!

So if we’ve fed you something delicious, caffeinated you when you desperately needed it, catered something special, made you laugh, remembered your order, or just made your day a tiny bit better…

We would LOVE your nomination. 🥒🏆

It only takes a couple of minutes, and you can nominate Hello Pickle right here 👇

We somehow managed to take this baby home last year…

CAN WE TRY AND KEEP THE CROWN?! 👑😂

Love,
Jess & the Pickle crew 💚

WELL, THIS IS PRETTY BLOODY COOL…

Our Sunday Roast Lamb Pie won a BRONZE MEDAL! 🥉

Yep. Our little pie, made right here in Whangārei, went off to the Bakels New Zealand Supreme Pie Awards and got 3rd place out of hundreds of pies judged across NZ!!!

And we are ridiculously proud 🥹

We created this pie around everything we love about gathering with loved ones for a proper Sunday roast… Slow cooked melt in your mouth NZ lamb, in a rich gravy with some peas and carrots, mash potato and mint sauce of course! We have managed to pack that into beautiful pastry - all made from scratch by the brilliant kitchen crew.

Which means you can now legitimately say:

“I’m just popping into Hello Pickle for some award-winning Kai.”

Even if you’re actually eating it in your car with pastry all down your shirt 😂

Massive love to our team who put so much care into the food we make every day, and to all of you who keep buying our pies, telling your mates about us and backing our little local business 💚

Hello Pickle officially makes award-winning pies.

Sorry, we’ll probably be insufferable about this for a while. 😂🥧🥉
