America's Absolute Best Pie Shops
"Down in tiny Round Top, I experienced the Royer family’s deep Texas pie legacy: Bud “The Pieman” Royer earned fame since 1987 at Royers Round Top Café with iconic pies and comforting lunch and dinner fare, while his daughter Tara Royer Steele runs Royers Pie Haven (since 2011) offering the same signature pies in a whimsical, faith-inspired space full of antiques. Standouts include Junkberry (a fruit-studded mix), Texas Trash (coconut, chocolate chips, graham crackers, pretzels, and caramel), Sweet n’ Salty (dense brownie with caramel and sea salt), and the classic Original Buttermilk, all served with genuine Texas hospitality." - Veronica Stoddart
