That said, when I’m craving a comforting pot pie, I look forward to a traditional crust. After all, that’s in the fun of it! In addition, the gravy was a bit bland in this pick and the vegetables definitely taste like typical frozen veggies.

2. Centerville

The crust is flakey on the edges and the pie itself features an ideal gravy-to-filling ratio. Out of all the brands we tested, Centerville had my personal favorite crust, featuring a hint of sweetness. Centerville uses a quality mixture of both light and dark meat chicken, shredded into smaller pieces.
Overall, Centerville’s chicken pot pie tasted super close to homemade. (Choosing between our top two picks was a very close call!)
Price: $13.97
