Classic diner serving all-day breakfast, comfort food, and pies
"A Houston institution since the ‘60s, this all-day diner is known for much more than just its pies. Expect all the quintessential diner breakfast options with a Texas flair, such as rib-eye steak and eggs, beef fajita and eggs, and its sinful griddle options, including the banana pecan pancakes. But don’t be afraid to keep it sweet and simple with a slice of pie and coffee. Here, that counts as breakfast, too." - Marcy de Luna, Brittany Britto Garley
"House Of Pies serves quintessential diner-style breakfasts all day long. The Houston-based chain has been around since the ‘60s, dishing out hot breakfasts at multiple locations around Houston. At the OG Galleria spot, you can expect the old-timey board listing all of the pies and retro decor around the room. For breakfast, come to House of Pies for a glass of fresh orange juice, a hearty chicken fried steak with a mountain of gravy and eggs your way, and a blueberry muffin on the side. And while it isn’t technically a breakfast food, having a slice of pie feels like it should be a required part of every meal here, so do yourself a favor and grab a slice or two to-go." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi

"This iconic Houston diner is called House of Pies for a reason — it’s home to whole fruit-filled pies, cream pies, and specialty pies galore. Stick with tradition and choose pumpkin or Texas pecan or something even more indulgent like the egg-cream custard or Bavarian chocolate cream. All good things come to those who wait, and wait you will. House of Pies is first come, first served during the holidays, but if you want to get ahead of the rush, the diner now ships its pies of all sizes nationwide." - Brittany Britto Garley
"House of Pies has been serving the city since 1967 with a host of diner options you can depend on, now at six different locations. From 7 a.m. to midnight daily, diners can gorge on breakfast items like rib-eye steak and eggs, omelets, and eggs benedict, or skip straight to the dessert, with its assortment of cheesecakes, cookies, and of course, freshly baked pies." - Sean Hekmat, Brittany Britto Garley
