I have bought five different pies over the course of four months. Very expensive but worth it...particularly the lemon meringue. Crust was light but firm and the filling was the perfect balance of tangy and sweet. The service is grumpy but who cares since you take out your pie. Definitely be prepared with cash, credit cards are grudgingly accepted. Worth... More

Went to this store because I heard their pies were good. When we walked in the man behind the counter didn't greet us and looked like he didn't want us in the store. We stated that the store smelled wonderful and he just stared at us. Then I asked about the pies and he acted like I was wasting his... More

I have purchased three pies from Best Pie to bring to various gatherings with friends and colleagues. The pies always receive compliments from those attending and I am invariably asked where did I purchase this from. They are fresh and very tasty and a class, or two, above a Giant or Safeway pie. Compliments to the pastry chef.

Stopped in about ten minutes before closing on a Friday night. Bought a chocolate cream pie and two cupcakes. As others have said, the pies are expensive but are made from scratch and excellent. Hope the business makes it as suburban tastes might find it hard to swallow paying $25 for a pie when Giant is $7, but you get... More

As mentioned by others, this is not a restaurant but small bakery selling primarily whole pies. We had several pies, both cream based and fruit filled and enjoyed every one of them. The crust is always delectable and the fillings are a good balance of ingredients. I have recommended Best Pie to many of my friends and neighbors with the... More

We've been to Best Pie many times and have never been disappointed. Their pies really are the best! The crust is excellent, the fruit is fresh, altogether great. A little expensive but more than worth it for special occasions.

Perplexing that this should be in the restaurant category, as it is a pie bakery with no sit-down service. The pie is OK, but as another reviewer pointed out, pricey at $25.

If you try the blackberry or the chocolate cream(oh my god!) or the banana cream you will know that Best Pie Company IS The Best! The crust is like the dream grandma I never had made it! I don't know about the apple that the other reviewer talked about because I never tried it but I do know that they... More

I agree that it is expensive - but the mixed berry pie is awesome. Obviously, with the cost it is not an everyday dessert but it is great for special occasions

Great idea, good location, but this is not the best pie in the area. It is the most expensive pie at over $25.00. I decided to have a girl’s dessert party with Best Pie as the featured dessert. Three of my girlfriends were prepared to talk and indulge ourselves with an awesome homemade, apple pie and rich, organic ice cream.... More
