Flights are my favorite. Flights of wine, flights of beer, flights of pizza, flights of soup, etc. -- being able to try a little bit of a bunch of different things is the best! When I found out about this place that has a pie flight, I knew I needed to check it out. I finally got to try the pie flight on my birthday! We actually stopped in twice -- once before dinner for a wine tasting, and then after dinner for the pie.
Crane's is out in the middle of nowhere near Fennville. It's located on a beautiful orchard which was so pretty to see with the sun setting. The atmosphere is rustic and homey, with lots of old-timey decor and even a taxidermied dog outside (!!). This isn't a fancy place, but it's clean and service was great. Everyone we encountered was super friendly and polite. The wine we tried was okay, but nothing blew my mind. My favorite was the merlot, which was pretty smooth and balanced. My boyfriend tried some of their sweet fruit wines and they were super sweet.
The pie flight rotates depending on what flavors are available - check the board outside the door for the list. We got two flights for three people, one with ice cream. This was definitely too much as we had eaten a large dinner, but the pie was delicious. We had raspberry pie, cherry crisp, blueberry pie, and apple pie. The cherry was actually my favorite, but all the pies were great. The crust was flaky and tender. The ice cream is definitely worth the extra $2 as it's a large scoop!
