Larisa GrollemondOctober 26, 2015A hidden gem in the lobby of the library, get a slice of anything but especially the salted caramel apple.
MashkaOctober 13, 2014Place is very relaxing and MUCH bigger than it looks on pics. Slices are pretty huge. Nice laid back staff.
Sadie SteinApril 22, 2010Absolutely charming space, and the pie's not half-stepping, either! Lemon chess was genuinely delicious, the others good, and the spot is as pleasant a cafe as I've ever seen in Brooklyn!
Sean LlewellynApril 7, 2015Really love their blackbottom oatmeal pie! But let's be honest, all their pies are delicious.
Village VoiceNovember 14, 2011Winner of Best Use of Nectarines in the Village Voice 2011 Best Of issue! The nectarine and blueberry pie is a perfect summertime treat.
Colleen McAndrewAugust 18, 2014Great local pies. Salty honey was surprisingly delicious. Seasonal so keep going back!
FunesJuly 27, 2015Holy moly! The salted caramel apple was a hit! Take a pie to a potluck and you'll be the hero!
Brandi MJuly 25, 2011Pies were good but not the best I've ever had - not really worth $5 a slice. The iced mocha however -- best I've ever had. Chunks of real chocolate. Amazing.
Jeremy SaMay 20, 2013this is the best apple pie i've ever had. the salty honey pie was also ridiculously delicious.
The salted caramel apple pie has become a staple in my diet.
Dan DenneyOctober 14, 2013As Cherrie says, the salted caramel pie was the most amazing thing she ever put in her mouth.
Jeremy YapOctober 3, 2013overheard and agree: "the birch beer float pie is one of the best things i've ever put in my mouth."
This should be on everyone's Brooklyn food map. For me it's just a question of how long I can last between visits.
Elizabeth MitchellSeptember 26, 2011The crust is just so good. Buttery flaky deliciousnesses. Eat all things! Savory are just as fab as the sweet.
AdleyAugust 27, 2014Pies are ok, nothing special, pretty expensive. I really like the interier, awesome!
Deborah TsuchidaJanuary 17, 2016Their strawberry balsamic pie is simply delectable. Was never even a pie person till I tried this place!
TC KidaMay 12, 2013honey rosemary shoofly = amazing. Also, prepare to be surrounded by babies. Park Slope encroaching on Gowanus
All the pies are good, but Cranberry Sage is the best one I've had. Tart but not too tart, sweet but not too sweet, nice and juicy.- Village VoiceFebruary 22, 2012Village Voice is excited to have Four & Twenty Blackbirds at the 2012 Choice Eats food fest!

loran jonakJune 14, 2015Great pies, though the price is a little steep. Located just south of the Whole Foods.
One of my fav places for pie and coffee in all of Brooklyn!
Abby SmithJuly 17, 2013Delicious wild ginger and strawberry pie. Can't wait to try their homemade granola!
Wifi hours are 8-8 weekdays and off on weekends. Laptop warriors, ye be warned
Rent the RunwayApril 27, 2011One of our favorite bakeries of all time! Get the salted caramel apple pie to experience a little slice of Heaven.
- Dolores LoudermilkNovember 28, 2016Drip coffee is good and inexpensive with free refills. I thought the pie crust was tough and flavorless.
These pies are amazing. Keep coming back for the new and seasonal.
Sharing sounds nice — until you take a bite and realize buying two is better than splitting one.
You can't go wrong with any of their pies. I did the honey plumb today. So good.
Michaela BuccolaMarch 9, 2013Honey Rosemary Shoefly is to die for good! But really you cant go wrong!
Alot of people think the pies are great. I think they are ok. Not to crazy about the pumpkin pie and not to crazy about the coffee.
