Some people view food as a means of survival; you’ve got to eat, right? But, for true foodies, a well-made savoury pie is a key to a wholesome day, or maybe a week! So wherever you are in Cairo, we have the perfect spot for you to treat yourself to a tasty pie without going broke. Yes, dreams DO come true!
Fatatry Wael
In Heliopolis, Fatatry Wael offers one of the best sojouk pies in town! Its crispy mixture of eggs, cheese, olives, veggies, and of course, sojouk will sweep you off your feet. For cheese lovers out there, the shop’s second-best pie is the one with a delicious mix of cheeses.
Pizza El-Sultan
Nasr City is a place for old-school food lovers, so if you are ever around Moustafa El-Nahas street, make sure you stop for a buttery pie or even their famous pizza cake! El-Sultan specialises in “Pizza Tart”, but we like to go for a pastrami feteer that is baked to perfection. The shop also has a second branch in New Cairo.

Desoky and Soda
Just in case you didn’t know, the famous Cairene franchise, Desoky and Soda, has signature pies that are to die for! We really like its masterfully made chicken BBQ and Ranch pies, but we LOVE the fact that this chain has branches covering Sheikh Zayed, Zamalek, Maadi, New Cairo, Madinaty, and Heliopolis!
Pro tip: order your pie with a crunchy pizza topping. Once you utter these words to the waiter, they will understand, and you will be blessed for life when your order arrives!
Tayer Ya Fatayer
In Zamalek, there’s a hidden gem! A world of savoury pies in one shop called Tayer Ya Fatayer. You may go for plain or up the game with any of your favourite ingredients. The place also has savoury rolls that are rich and freshly baked!
Majesty
Since the beginning of time, this royal franchise of pizzas and pies has a unique cheese mix pie which is finger-licking good! We like to add a pastrami topping to slow down that cheese rush, but you can simply melt with the gourmet cheeses. Sure, this shop is a bit pricey, but it’s definitely worth every penny!
