If you're a fan of Key Lime pie, the Key Lime Pie Factory in Tavernier (near Key Largo, FL) is a must visit. On a rainy day, we fortunately passed this restaurant and immediately had to stop! I LOVE Key Lime pie! A whole restaurant for my favorite pie! The pie itself had a wonderful flavor--refreshing and tangy, but not overly tart, striking a perfect balance. What's even better is the option to choose different cream toppings for your pie. I chose whipped cream, it tasted like a whipped Kool-Whip and not so much a real whipped cream, but it was still delicious.
In addition to their signature pies, the shop offers a variety of other Key Lime-flavored snacks and treats, making it easy to take a little taste of the Keys home with you. There were cookies, candy, Key Lime juice and cooking sauces and dressing.
The restaurant's atmosphere is relaxed and tropical. There's a beautiful back patio with comfortable chairs under the shade of palm trees, creating a perfect spot to enjoy your dessert. The area is charming, with cute fences where visitors can leave lockets, adding to the cozy and welcoming vibe. However, there is no indoor seating, so I wasn't able to eat onsite because it was a rainy day. The on-site bathroom is a convenient addition and was a nice feature during my visit, because I sure needed it before our long drive back to Miami.
If you love Key Limes, the Key Lime Pie Factory is a great place for a quick stop or a relaxed afternoon enjoying some coffee and the best Key Lime pie around, with a beautiful setting to match.
