Gorgeous Key Lime pie for a birthday. Great service, easy parking. Thanks for making the celebration special! read more

Yum!!! I'm not normally a fan of pie (except for pumpkin!) and I especially don't like pie crust. Acme Pie Co is amazing though and the crust was so tasty and I loved it. We got two slices for $5.50 each, one blackberry and one strawberry rhubarb. They are the perfect amount of sweet, and the right balance of gooey and crispy. Fantastic. You have to give it a try! read more

Acme Pie - Strawberry rhubarb and blackberry pie - Desserts Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Solid 3.5 stars! Finally got to try Acme pies! I'm glad to have this place here for the convenience of picking up dessert for dinner. IMHO, the pies here just don't cut it compared to homemade pie but it's good enough with ice cream on top for a weekday evening. The storefront and layout is really nice - only thing is the display counter is too small to showcase all the pies. It was a little annoying to have to ask about the 8 or so pies in the back. They do have VEGAN pies and quiche!!! We ordered the blackberry pie and sour cherry pie to try. As other folks have mentioned, the crust is SO good! Buttery, flavorful, crunchy all in one!! The blackberry pie had great flavor - I taste cinnamon, nutmeg - but it was not chunky & had a gelatin texture which is a let down. Nothing better than delicious, whole fruit pie in the summer. We don't want that jelly ish. Sour cherry was pretty delicious though not as tart as a traditionally sour cherry pie. For $6 a slice, we just expected a little better. It's great to have Acme so close as we are limited for dessert options on Columbia Pike! Tips: parking in small lot next to giant. Limited street parking. Across from Columbia Pike Farmers Market. read more

This is where you go to have the best pie ever. The owner has been making pies for upscale restaurants for years and now has a store front. All his ingredients are fresh and local . No artificial ingredients here. read more

This place will convince you that you NEED pie! ;) I was new to ACME this year and hope spreading the word can bring the same joy to others. First... what a lovely, inviting space. I could smell amazing things right through my mask, music was great, staff welcoming, and I thought were it not COVID, I would love to sit down and spend time at one of their cozy tables. The pie. Oh my goodness. I didn't think I liked pecans and then I tried their pecan chocolate... amazing!! I don't even know how to describe it. Every last one of the pies we've tried had excellent, balanced flavors and texture. Apple and pumpkin are traditionally my favorites and I used to bypass crust for the good stuff in the middle, but not on these pies... it's ALL good stuff. None of that fried wonton, cardboardy, waste-of-space stuff... really tasty crust. BTW, the apple is insanely fresh-tasting, the pumpkin is so smooth and perfectly spiced... The baker even made a special request sweet potato pie for a birthday present that was a real hit (and beautiful) too! ACME is my new motivation to exercise so I can stop in regularly to try their different flavors. I should note a few practical things. Parking is super easy, so you don't have to worry about carefully carrying your pies a distance to load them in the car. They also make a full size and a smaller size pie (in addition to serving slices), which I think is great for sampling, smaller households, gift-giving, etc. read more

Had a slice of blueberry lemon and while it was good, for $6, it was pretty small. I'd guess about 1/8 of a pie. The crust was good, but more crumbly than flakey. I'd guess that's somewhat of a matter of preference and I was OK with it, but my wife didn't care for it. I may go back and try another flavor, but I think they're a little overpriced or undersized. read more

Terrible customer service from business owner. I tell my story as honest as I am and then to have the owner publicly argue with me. I am not the first review this owner argues with. The owner of the pie shop is not presenting a welcoming environment. But while they are showing here is if something goes wrong they will argue with you instead of fixing it. read more

Lured into joining a freind here tonight with the promise "there will be pie". That promise was met and exceeded. The pie was AWESOME. The perfect crust restrained a delicious blend of blueberry and lemon curd with a light crumble top. This wasn't some Tastykake blueberry monstrosity overwhelmed with cane sugar but a master pastry treat perfectly sweetened but still full of natural fruit taste. Damn you women! I will now need to return and sample the full menu to fill my empty COVID quarantined life Seriously though, good pie read more

Pie is ok and overpriced! Flavors are bland. Crust is soft. Blueberry with lemon curd had no lemon flavor at all and not a lot of actual fruit. Disappointing. read more

I just finished a wonderful treat! Last night, my wife and I passed the ACME Pie Co. store on Columbia Pike and there was a family enjoying desert in the window and the atmosphere looked so inviting that I just pulled over....and boy am I glad that I did. I had a home baked personal Porto share with my bride and now I wish I had kept it all to myself! Can't wait to go back for more! read more

Recently returned from living overseas during the COVID pandemic and stumbled across the Acme Soup Line offer via their Facebook page. And I am soooo glad that I did. The soup, bread and pie were fantastic! Much needed comfort food. Looking forward to trying another pie, although the apple was so delicious. So glad I came across this local business and looking forward to supporting whenever I return to the area. read more

Really wanted some pie so looked up Acme. Went late in the day and the staff member was very friendly - offering help but also giving us time to decide. The place was quiet and clean, laid out nicely. The pies were mixed. Husband really liked his, especially the crust. I didn't like how thick the crust was. read more

Shockingly, 9 out 10 homes in the DC area unaware they are in pie crisis mode.* Thankfully, Acme Pie Co is on a mission to answer this problem. Don't be another sad statistic! It's just one of those things. You don't know what you are missing out on until you've tried. I know. I was the "you" not too long ago. A while back I saw Acme Pie Co previously and thought to myself, "I'll have to try this place sometime". That day finally came this past weekend. Now I realize if I had not waited so long, it's possible I could have tried all their pies by now. We are talking soft, flaky crusts. Delicious fillings balanced perfectly with fruit. The apple pie, as an example, sparkles with a dusting of sugar. It's not just yummy, it's a show stopper. The key lime pie has an amazing graham cracker style crust. The lime flavor shines through as the star, nicely garnished with shredded coconut. I attempted to take a photo to share, however half the pie was devoured between the push and release of the camera button. Damage was done by too many forks attacking the pies at once. This meant the photo didn't do it justice. That's the last time I share an APC pie. *This statistic is not based on census data. read more

Came here for the second shot...um, YUM. I tried their blueberry custard pie a la mode and it was so good I'm having my SO go and pick up more. It was absolutely delicious warmed up and is easily a new favorite of mine. read more

Quaint little pie shop is a hidden gem in Arlington, thank goodness we found it using yelp. The staff ( Anabelle and Lila ) were friendly and welcoming, had great suggestions. The other locals in the shop made our little stop for pie very nice. They sat and chatted with us visitors as they had puzzle night ( Friday night routine ) . It was a lovely choice for a little slice of heaven. read more

Came in 30 mins before closing on a Thursday. We were greeted nicely. There was a couple ahead of us ordering a bunch of slices. Older women comes from around the corner and asks what pie we want. "Two slices of key lime pie please." Mind you, there were only about three slices left of the pie, and still, so close to closing shop for the day, the woman cuts two extremely TINY and unevenly measured slices of pie for $15. The flavor was pretty good but we felt cheated. When I'm charged $6+ dollars for a slice of pie, I expect a healthy slice! read more

Brand new pie place on Columbia Pike. Definitely a welcome addition because I think the area needs a larger variety of dessert options. The pies here are a bit on the pricey side but they're pretty good. There's some seating for coffee and chatting but there isn't a lot of space. Key lime was a little tart but the coconut custard, blueberry, and maple pecan pie were delicious. They also have savory pies which we didn't try but definitely will next time. Customer service was also great. We'll be back :) read more

I have eaten about a dozen different types of pie and every one of them was great! I brought two pies with me to a party in Brooklyn, and the New Yorkers scarfed them down quickly, which to me says a lot (as the food up there is so good). And the pies traveled well too. If I had any knock at all to make about this place, it would be the hours. I wish it were open earlier. I will be seeing a lot more of Acme Pies this summer! read more

This place is phenomenal. Not only does the super-friendly owner sell delicious pies...but pie MILKSHAKES. Forget meeting friends for coffee. Meet them for pie here instead. read more

I first discovered Acme Pie at Rare Bird when I decided to get a slice of pie to go with my coffee. I'm so glad I did and called Rare Bird right after my first bite to track down the maker of this pie. Acme makes the best pies! I went to a bbq yesterday and was so excited to take their blueberry lime and a slice of the strawberry rhubarb. Both were a hit! read more

Acme Pie - Blueberry lime pie - Desserts Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Acme Pie Company is absolutely fantastic. I've been there several times and tried a different pie each time and have not been disappointed. Today I tried their fig-honey-goat cheese pie and can honestly state this is the best pie I've ever eaten. It was DELICIOUS. The owner, Sol, is wonderful and the staff are friendly and helpful. The 3rd Tuesday of every month Acme Pie allows Readings on the Pike, a monthly curated reading series, to take over their space for the readings. It's always packed and the pies are always delicious. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a great pie. read more

Oh goodness me the pies are incredible. If you like pie, if you love pie, be prepared to enjoy hard beyond your wildest imagination. This new business on Columbia Pike is a keeper. read more

Owner and staff are friendly and helpful and that's always appreciated. We tried slices of lemon chess and the veggie quiche and small blueberry lemon and maple pecan chocolate pies. (Whole pies come in 2 sizes) All were really good but the kicker was the crust. I've always eaten my crust first to get it over with and get to the good stuff. With my Acme Pie pies, I took one bite of the crust and decided to save it for last. It's that good - I mean, the pie fillings are fantastic, but if the crust is good, too? Pretty damn awesome! They do have vegan pies but I forgot to ask if they offer vegan ice cream. read more

I love these pies! I've pretty much had all of the pies and they're just amazingly delicious. I love them so much that I gave them to my clients for a Christmas gift. I highly recommend the coconut custard, mixed berry and sour cherry pie. read more

Great vegan pie options. I really enjoyed the blackberry lime and the tomato pie, the vegan quiche and strawberry rhubarb were not quite as good but still tasty. Looking forward to trying the pear ginger pie next! read more

Amazing pie!! I'd just gotten home after working a shift at the hospital, and there just happened to be the Acme Pie-mobile parked in the parking lot of my apartment complex. I'd heard of them a lot but never had the chance to try them out. Oh, I'm so glad that I made a beeline from my car to the table! He had it set up with pies so fresh you could see them cooling inside the boxes! Pumpkin pie - he roasts it himself! and he candies the ginger himself! what more could you ask for? .. for seconds! I regret not buying more! I also got the apple pie.. and yup totally this is what other apple pies strive to be! (Same applies to the pumpkin pie.) If you could imagine: 2 adults gleefully enjoying pie on the sofa, too happy and busy to say anything other than, around an initial mouthful: "this is spot on!" "mhmm!" I didn't have anything planned for dinner, but I guess the 2 pies were dinner! It really is that good! I didn't get to try the other 2 types that he had that day: winterberry and pecan chocolate (I believe?), but next time I just might get one of each! read more

I've visited Acme Pie on a few sporadic occasions. Their atmosphere is old-school Americana and comfortable. Their varieties of pies are diverse and extremely high quality. One of my quirks as a picky customer was to create multi-flavored pie and they accommodated with different slices. There is parking in the back for easy accessibility. They also accept Apple pay along with credit card and cash. It is an outstanding place for classical American dessert. read more

The apple pie is heavenly! It brings back memories of my grandmother's legendary apple pie. The other flavors are delicious too. Their soup and pie delivery at lunchtime has been a welcome change to cooking lunch while working from home. This is a neat example of a business pivoting to a new business model when the market suddenly changes. They'll hopefully survive the Covid 19 economic challenge stronger, with new customers and a strong lunch business along with the amazing pies. read more

I'm usually not a pie or desert person, but oh my god - these pies are good. Had both the key lime and strawberry-rhubarb when visiting the DC area about a year ago and I still think about them. Planning another visit when I'm hopefully able to travel to the area this summer and Acme Pies will be one of my first stops. I guess I've just usually had mediocre pies from highway diners and just didn't know pie could be this good. read more

I have been ordering via their soup train and it has been great! The soups taste good, homemade and are filling. The focaccia is soft and herby. The pies have been great too! I can usually get a few light meals out of one delivery. Looking forward to going inside the shop one day read more

Acme Pie - Pumpkin soup, focaccia and pecan pie - Desserts Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

Came in last week for the first time after hearing very good things. The pandemic has turned me into a dessert fiend. I got three small pies (blueberry, pecan, coconut) and one large (streusel cherry). They were all amazing. Love that the ingredients are on the container, and no artificial stuff at all. The clove and cinnamon really take them over the top. I will be back today to get a couple more smalls for a friend as a gift. I hope they start a "frequent pie-r club," as I'll be coming in a lot from now on. read more

Amazing pie, soup, and bread! This is the first time I've tried this place and was blown away! Everything was delicious. There aren't many places where you can get the aforementioned items made from scratch. I highly recommend trying their yummy food and supporting this local business. They are currently delivering and offering a $20 lunch deal via soup line with free delivery. Check out their facebook page for details. I want to thank them for feeding our community during this unprecedented crisis! read more

I took my wife here on a Sunday morning, and ordered 4 slices of pie with coffee. Hands down the best pie I've had in years, if not ever. The variety was excellent, the prices completely fair, and we didn't have to commit to a full pie, but could get a few slices and eat by the window. Staff was friendly, and the owner was a terrific guy; I saw him sprint out the door because he thought someone (not even a customer) had lost a credit card on the sidewalk. He spoke to us for a long time about the secrets to good key lime, to boot! My only criticism is that the place did not exist sooner. I will be returning here weekly until my dying day, and my doctor can just learn to deal with that shit. read more

Spur of the moment... Jumped in the car to go check out their pies. Was immediately greeted upon entry and then given a "pie tour". I couldn't make up my mind on what to try, so I ended up buying 3 minis - sour cherry streussel, Key lime and meyer lemon chess. I cut all three into quarter pieces and had a piece of each. I enjoyed ALL of them! I can't wait to go back and try the others. read more

I'll be honest, for $5 a slice, I was expecting a little more. The cherry and key lime pie were good but I still felt like I could have made something equally good if not better. Livin' the Pie Life on Glebe Road is definitely better. read more
