Everything on the menu is amazing, but the Mac and Cheese and Earl Grey Tea pies are exceptional. Grab a seat outside for some sunshine and cute dog watching.
- K JJanuary 19, 2015They serve coffee and you can also buy coffee beans. I really recommend the Mexican Chocolate Pie. It surpassed expectations-so creamy and rich. Yumm. Good selection. Still curious about savory pies.
🍰August 13, 2020pie good. pie holes good, stuffed with pie filling. so you get a taste of a pie without buying a whole slice. loved the coffee until i got a mouthful of coffee grounds 😋
For sweet pies, recommend the Mexican Chocolate, Chocolate Crostata & Apple Pie (ask for it heated up with vanilla ice cream). For lunch try a savory chicken & cornbread pie with a side salad.
Kyle M.February 6, 2017Fantastic service. Professional and clean setting in a great environment. Plate presentation is good even when in a rush. Line out the door usually. Great coffee also, and merch. Bought a hoodie.
Janice JiangJune 4, 2015You can never go wrong with the earl grey pie. The honey lavender cheesecake is also delicious - give it a try if you're feeling adventurous!
Lauren-Michelle KraftNovember 5, 2015The earl grey tea pie was unique and the filling was delightful. The light layer of chocolate juxtaposed beautifully with the delicate flavour of the earl grey filling but the crust lacked crispness
If you're ever here when they have Lonely Pie, get a slice, or two. It's a Chocolate-peanut butter pie with chocolate cookie crust and a potato chip topping. Seasonal. Phenomenal.
Quaint pie shop across the street from Wurstkuche (PERFECT FOR DESSERT). The Lonelier Pie is pretty awesome - it's like a peanut butter cup in pie form topped with potato chips. Yes? Yes.
Dina LamdanyMay 29, 2013The best pie. If you get one, get the maple custard. But don't just get one! Get many and leave happy and full: it's worth it.
Jay ShinSeptember 11, 2014Their classic and traditional pies (blueberry and apple) are exactly what you'd expect, classic and traditional. Don't be afraid of the more creative flavors!
Not only are the pies great (Becky's Apple Crumb & Mac N' Cheese) and made fresh daily with local/high quality ingredients but all their utensils are eco-friendly! Ask them to warm up your pie too!
Everything here is amazing. Incredible owners, chef, and employees to boot! Favorites are Mexican Hot Chocolate, Lonely Pie, Thai Iced Tea, and currently Key Lime. Wash it down with some iced coffee!
Hannah KimJanuary 9, 2013The mexican chocolate pie was incredibly sweet and sickeningly rich- not my personal taste. The new pie- earl grey- was really good though! The crust was flaky and the pie had pistachios on it.
Go Find AliceJune 30, 2015Definitely try their latte and earl grey pie. The Mexican chocolate pie is pretty good too.
Michael WeberApril 6, 2013Spent the last two days working from here. Pleasant and attentive staff - coffee warmups, smiles, etc. I like this place a lot. The B-Cream pie is so good.
David LinderAugust 28, 2014The Mexican Chocolate pie was delicious, but dense. Make sure you have some sort of beverage with it, I had an iced salted caramel latte -- delicious!
Brandon TomyoyMarch 16, 2016The Earl Grey Tea pie and Maple Custard pie are two of my favorite pies in all of Los Angeles. So. Good.
Sea salt chocolate chip cookies are awesome. Paired with a scoop of ice cream. Om nom.
Pies DUH. Honestly I like the savory pies the best here. The desserty pies are good too. Right across from wurstkuche.
Kelly NguyenJuly 28, 2013Really cozy environment. Try the Mac n Cheese pie! And if you are looking for a drink, their horchata lattes will definitely wake you up!
Ask for the banana cream pie to be back on the menu. If enough of us ask, maybe they'll bring it back sooner than later. It's my favorite thing I've ever eaten here. :)
Neph TrejoAugust 31, 2013A slice of the Mexican chocolate is pretty good, make sure you get a cup of coffee, it's a great paring. The maple custard is also pretty tasty.
AMWAugust 19, 2014Don't skip the savory options, e.g. chicken pot pie with cornbread. Free wifi. Order whole sweet pies online for in store pick up.
GourmetLiveMarch 20, 2012Amy Bouchard, founder of Wicked Whoopies, baked the world’s largest whoopie pie: a 1,062-pound, 2,186,700-calorie whopper. Maine celebrated by naming the soft sandwiched cake its official state treat.
Claire KayApril 9, 2015Mexican chocolate pie is really good!! But be careful, you'll love it for two or three bites, then it gets overwhelmingly chocolatey.
Josephine CheeSeptember 11, 2013Small pie shop and Dash A stops in front of the shop. Delicious pies and friendly staff.
- Lee SimpsonJuly 10, 2017The Chicken & Waffle Pie with a little dash of HP Steak Sauce is a winning combination. So good.
LogoTVJune 5, 2012"1.Open Mouth 2.Insert Pie 3.Repeat. Mac&Cheese w/ a kick, Mexi-Chocolate, Blueberry Cheesecake. I break my no-dairy-in-public rule for them!"- Willam, RuPaul's Drag U
Social Media Club Los AngelesNovember 13, 2012SMCLA loves the Pie Hole! Thank you for sponsoring our Social Media Horror Stories event on 11/13 at The Hub LA and giving Angelinos the finest baked goods around!
MauricioSeptember 28, 2014Try the maple custard pie. Trust me, it's delicious! And if in season, their strawberry pie is a slice of delight!
SlayphanieFebruary 10, 2015Mexican chocolate pie changed my life, I'm not even a chocolate or pie lover. Get it, now... Stop reading this and order it
I don't like overly sweet things but the maple custard is on point. And the Mac and cheese. Pair with Horchata latte.
Shanelle UeyamaMay 20, 2013Cute store in awesome artistic area. Mexican chocolate pie was way too intense though. Could only take a few bites. Wish i wouldve chosen the earl grey tea pie :(
Their Earl Grey or banana cream pie is simply amazing. and their seasonal Thai iced tea pie. drools
Just in time for Thanksgiving, they have a turkey pie with stuffing and a side of cranberry relish. Delicious!
Kimmy NguyenJuly 26, 2014Earl grey pie... Always... Also the Mac & Cheese pocket, strawberry basil cheesecake... Pretty much you can't go wrong!
Coming back to try Mac n cheese and maple custard but their chicken pot pie ...."srsly!!!" so savory and perfect of how they all should be !
AndreaJune 22, 2014Earl Grey Pie = white chocolate mousse atop dense milk chocolate with a hint of earl grey yumminess 🙌
Brian ChernickNovember 19, 2014Great work environment and friendly staff. Seriously delicious pies, with Ear Grey Tea as my favorite!
- jeremie gerhardtJanuary 2, 2017Obviously they do pies, the pies I have bravely tasted were delicious.
Maybs MDecember 18, 2012The maple custard and Mexican chocolate were our favorites. The crust for the holiday silk was amazing.
The curry pie was delicious. But it's not as saucy as Japanese curry. It's still good.
Nate TinnerMay 8, 2015Beyond excellent, but I don't consider ~$5 per piece to be cheap. Worth the money though.
