Wow, another review that failed to get written until now (I came here in June 2023). I must be slipping. Anyway, I know this shop from Claremont, even further away from us than Pasadena, but I was super thrilled to learn that this second location opened up closer to us (well, only by a little distance), but I'll take what I can get.
They offer sweet and savory pies, but truth be told, I'm completely stuck on their sweet pies only. I love that they offer the sizes they do, and in the shape and size of a cupcake. They also have hand pies. Frankly, I don't care if they're expensive or not. They're THAT good !! The owner makes phenomenal pie crust, whether it's a traditional pie crust, shortbread, graham cracker, or whatever.... perfect every time. The pie flavors are so delicious, everything tastes fresh and flavorful, and there are always about 10 choices on their menu, although some of the flavors change with the seasons. Regardless of the time of year, this shop is always well stocked, and I have never seen them run out of anything, even at holiday time.
My favorite flavors are their chocolate chip chess, lemon, banana cream, pumpkin praline, and cookie butter. I've tried most, if not all, of their sweet flavors, and they are ALL delicious.
It's a good thing we don't live near Pasadena. The allure would be too strong for me. :)
