One of LA’s Best Pie Shops Scores a Big, Sunny New Santa Monica Home - Eater LA

"Winston Pies has secured a new location in Santa Monica, with plans to formalize its new facility on Ocean Avenue sometime in early March. Owner Brianna Abrams’ popular pie shop, which first opened in Brentwood in 2017 before expanding to West Third Street, is taking over the long-dormant former Joan’s on Third offshoot at 1705 Ocean Avenue, and will use the much larger facility to expand its customer base and delivery range, and to greatly grow its production volume and nationwide shipping. 'The little Brentwood kitchen and prep space just couldn’t handle the orders,' Abrams tells Eater by email. 'The new kitchen has so much more space and oven capacity, and it happens that this beautiful kitchen also has a fantastic front area for pick up and to-go.' Look for a firm opening date in the next several weeks, with the possibility of on-site dining still to come." - Farley Elliott
