Ordered pecan pie to go. It was cool how you literally had to go through the back door to get to the bakery. I've been looking for a great dessert spot while in Tucson and I can say this place delivered (at least for the pie I ordered: pecan). The crust was soft and not too flaky. The filling had just the right amount of sweetest which didn't over power the pecans who drive the need for coffee to bring down the sugar. And let's talk about pie size - just enough to be greedy by yourself or share with another. Let's just say I wasn't disappointed and I'll be back. read more

Back Dough - Bakeries Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

What a HIDDEN GEM! Seriously, it's right behind Beyond Bread so it feels a little hidden. Their pies are incredible, we love to get them for holidays and special occasions.. or just sometimes after lunch at Beyond Bread. Some personal favorites are Key Lime and Kahlua Creme. Just last week I tried their chicken pot pie and I can't believe I hadn't before. It was easy to heat at home, great quality chicken, the gravy/sauce was rich and tasty but not heavy or greasy like some can be, the vegetables were perfectly cooked, in a wonderful flaky crust. Can't wait to go back! read more

Back Dough - Chicken Pot Pie - Bakeries Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

The banana cream pie was well liked by everyone! We will return to try more flavors for sure and definitely want to check out the savory pies too! read more

The pie, oh my. For once I am not talking pizza. This place has all kinds of beautiful sweets but their pies are just wonderful. Reluctantly sharing with you that the key lime pie is perfectly tart, great filling (not gelatin consistency like whole foods and melts between your tongue and the roof of your mouth), a knock out hearty graham cracker crust (Sylvester Graham would be so proud) and a bit of whipped cream to balance the pucker - if you need to but I put it aside for my guests. This place also has sugar free options and a whole bunch of baked goodies to choose from. Holding up to its name, this is behind beyond bread and has a separate entrance. However beyond bread also has a display case with some of the heavy hitters - tiramisu, anyone? - and their sandwiches are also fantastic with opportunity to kill two appetites with one visit. Make sure to hit this place up earlier in the day because fresh baked daily means the early bird gets the pie. read more

Back Dough - Key lime pie. The picture does not do justice compared to the slices you will ask seconds for. - Bakeries Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Pies are so delicious, cost is wonderfully affordable, we love the Banana Cream and Mixed berries!! You can't go wrong with any selection!!

Best pie I have ever had it's the best pie in the universe personally I haven't went in over 3 or 2 years but when I go again I hope it will be just as good. read more

Ordered online for delivery to my in-laws and had to call the shop because I hadn't heard anything from DoorDash . Ryan was very courteous and had great customer service over the phone! Can't wait to go down to Arizona and check this place out for myself! read more

I am the mom, it's all wonderful and the staff is fantastic. The Pies we will be eating tonight. All the Pi buyers are the best.

Wow, how am I just learning of this place! I was having lunch with my Dad (who LOVES pie) and we just happened to spot this place. Walked in and pies galore! From fruit/dessert pies to pot pies to quiche, this place is pie heaven. It was clear by the lines inside this place is popular. I asked a lady what she liked best and she told me to go for the chicken pot pie. So I did. That along with the cranberry apple and strawberry rhubarb pies, to go. They are mini pies, not full size. Let me just say, the chicken pot pie was the bomb! I will be returning to try some of the other pies/quiche. My Dad loved his strawberry rhubarb pie, and the cranberry apple was divine. read more

They have changed their pie crust and it is terrible! I do not care what they tell you about the crust being the same it is NOT! Save your money and go to Fry's (just as bad) and pay a fraction of the cost. read more

Pie. Sweet pie. Savory pie. Whatever pie you can think of. Buy one for dinner. Buy another for dessert.

Amazing variety of pies! We picked up two different pies last Christmas. I don't even remember which flavors we got (one of them may have been key lime) but I recall them being delicious and a hit with our out-of-town guests! I really like that their pies are a "medium" size - perfect for a small dinner party of about 4 people. That way, we can also buy more pies to try different flavors! Will definitely make it a personal gourmand mission to try most, if not all, of their pies ;-) read more

I went to pick up pies at Coco's and they were closed. Lucky me!! Back Dough!! Wowza!! What a tasty deal! I took home 4 pies Saturday to share at a dinner on Sunday. Blueberry, Apple were declared "the best we ever tasted"!! I enjoyed the chocolate cream. Perfect flavor, excellent crusts! I can hardly wait to go back and try other selections! read more

I have been a regular customer of Beyond Bread for many yrs & love their desserts. Yesterday a friend and I lunched at their Wilmot location & afterward stopped @BackDough to get some take-out items. She loved her lemon meringue pie and I enjoyed my peanut and Kalua cheesecake. However, even tho the turkey pot pie had a tasty, flaky crust and a nice filling, where was the turkey?? The tiny amt of the meat reminded me of Y I don't buy Swanson pot pies! A total waste of $7.75 - never again! read more

The Back Dough is one of my favorite places in Tucson. Pies are only $7 which is a very competitive price for a pie. All of the varieties of sour cream are delicious but I think my #1 pick is the Kahlua pie. Make sure you keep your pie tins because 10 pie tins = 1 free pie! read more

I haven't tried their foods so this review isn't for the foods. It's for customer service. Owner-please train your employees to treat EVERYONE with respect and patience! I am deaf and when I gestured I couldn't hear your employee STILL spoke even though after I informed her by gesture that I am deaf. She had an attitude of annoyance EVERYTIME I ask her a question nicely through text note on my phone. Apparently she doesn't want to write down answer every time. When paying by credit card the tips part came up. I gave her tips even though I could have chosen not to based on her customer service behavior. I am anxious to try the foods and see if the foods are worth the trip based by other good Yelp reviews. read more

Back Dough - I ordered beef pot pie and banana cream pie it has instructions on box for warming up pot pie - Bakeries Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This is a very interesting little place. Guess it is takeout only and small. My wife suggested it for pot pies. So I went and got them. They offer chicken, turkey, or beef. She has chicken while I the turkey. You order online or walk in like I did. Tate home your order and bake them. They are on the large side for pot pies and are very tasty. Lots of meat and veggies. The crust is very flaky and yummy. They have a very large selection of pastries also. I think this one is a keeper. read more

Hate to be the guy that writes a bad review during hard times. However, I feel that after having paid money. I reserve the right to write my review. Pies are good. Not the best, but definitely beats the grocery stores. My one star review is for this reason - unsanitary practice. The baker/clerk who handled my pies touched the crust of the pies that I selected without having washed her hands/ wearing gloves. In addition, she had scratched her eye - then proceeded to place the stickers on the pie box. Disgusting. Wish they would focus more on sanitation practices during covid. read more

These pies are pretty mediocre. I got the sour cream cherry pie and the strawberry rhubarb pie. The sour cream cherry pie was just tons of cream with like 5 cherries in the whole thing. Very disappointing. The strawberry rhubarb pie was better but didn't taste like they used fresh ingredients. The rhubarb taste was a bit off. Overall, I wasn't very impressed and probably won't come back. I could make better pies on my own. read more

What a find! If you drive along Wilmot Road, you can easily miss Back Dough. Tucked in the back corner behind Beyond Bread, Back Dough is a quaint pie shop. It's related to Beyond Bread, so you know you're getting tasty treats with quality ingredients. Most of their individual-sized pies sell for a little less or more than $6. They have both sweet and savory pies, such as chicken pot pie, apple pie, blueberry pie, and pumpkin pie. There are some specialty season pies, like pumpkin cheesecake pie in the Fall. I came in one afternoon and purchased their strawberry-rhubarb and chicken pot pie. Both delicious! They provide you with heating instructions for their pot pies and quiches, which is very helpful when you get home. The fillings were well seasoned in the chicken pot pie and the crust was light and flaky. The strawberry rhubarb pie was amazing! Not too sweet, and perfectly fulfilled my sweeth tooth. It was a great find, especially since not a lot of places sell strawberry rhubarb pie frequently. Each pie is boxed individually and they will place it in a paper bag with a complementary free cornbread muffin, which is also delicious! If you're looking to try different flavors without having to purchase a gigantic pie at Costco or the grocery store, this is the place to go! You can easily share it between 2 people as a nice dessert at the end of dinner, or indulge and have one all to yourself. One pot pie can feed a person for both lunch and dinner. Definitely a place to try! read more

Sorry to be a downer, but the pie is just mediocre. Plus they are really small at a huge price. Very disappointed as I love Beyond Bread. read more

Very good pie . Possibly the best pie I've ever had . Very quick service and almost never any line.

I live in the NW part of town, so I get my pies at Beyond Bread. Love the chicken pot pie. Crust is perfectly flaky. I've had the pumpkin pie, coconut cream pies and they are delicious! The fruit tart is also amazing! Wish they had a bakery on my side of town. Would love to try more pies! read more

OMG - what can I say about this gem in Tucson - absolute best banana cream pie I've had in my life!! Flaky crust that stood up to the flavorful, not overpowering banana cream. I just wish they had a location in Naperville, IL so we could enjoy it year round. read more

I've been there three times and I loved it every time and never had a complaint the pies were always good service is phenomenal and if you buy him a pot pie they give you a koala muffin for free so that's kind of really cool highly recommended read more

See all

The pot pies and quiche are amazing. It's a complete meal for $7.99. Plenty of chicken and vegetables in the pot pie and the spinach and ham quiche was full of meat. My first time trying Back Dough but, it certainly will not be last. The cream and fruit pie's looked wonderful and I'll be sure to try one next time. (Maybe this weekend) read more

Diest time and so glad we found this place. Exceptional variety and reasonably priced made from scratch pies. We selected an apple and coconut cream. This are small pies which make it a great size especially if you are at a hotel and don't have much fridge space. They also had three different pot pies. Will definitely stop by on our way out of town read more

Classic crust & fillings for Pi Day ( 3.14 = March 14th of course) always taste & look great!

Great pies! We bought pumpkin, apple, chocolate peanut butter and pecan pies for Thanksgiving. They were all excellent with very flaky crust and wonderful fillings. The smaller size facilitated having several different flavors. The staff here are very friendly and provide excellent guidance on amount to buy to feed the holiday masses. read more

Amazing pies! We have had three different flavors and all of them were wonderful! Big enough for 2 to 3 servings. Well priced and friendly staff. We will be going back again soon! read more

This place IS NOT open till 7 like the web says. Worse, employee was very rude when told her web hrs need to be fixed. Drove across town for nothing. read more

A little hard to find the first time but I'm definitely going to make it a habit. Possibly the best pumpkin pie I've ever had, and the banana cream and strawberry rhubarb is soo good. read more

This place is Delish! As other posters mentioned there are sweet pies & out of this world pot pies ( Today 11-20-19 is a cold rainy day ) Think.....warm yummy flaky crust pot pie! Followed by a bit of sweet pie! Heaven!! I highly recommend Back Dough, don't go to late, tends to run out. I'm headin for Back Dough today! read more

Everything is delicious! Someone brought cookies and baked goods from here to a work Luncheon and everyone wanted to know where it is located. I went to the store late in the day and all the cookies were sold out but they still had pies. I had a hard time deciding which pie to get. I went with a chocolate pie and I was not disappointed. It was amazing! I will definitely be back. read more

Oversized personal pies. Just normal pie crust and filling. I tried the lemon meringue and blueberry but neither were very good. I love Beyond Bread though, just down the hall. read more

Seriously one of the best pies I've ever had. I got the banana cream pie it was under $7, so the price was awesome. It took less than 5 minutes they boxed it up super fast. The pie was creamy, the whip cream was delicious, the almonds added a great texture, and the crust was cooked to perfection with the perfect buttery taste. Would recommend to any pie lover. read more

Last minute on a Sunday, we needed dessert. Looked up The Back Dough's hours - great, open until 6 PM! It is now 3:30. I drive down. Walk up to the door and there is a sign saying "Due to a staffing shortage, we will be closing at 4:30". Whew! That was close. It's 3:50. The doors are locked! What? There are two workers in the store. I'm confused. I tap on the glass to get some clarity. The woman behind the counter just ignores me. I tap again. She does not look up. How disrespectful can one be? There were many pies in the display. Was it too much trouble to sell a couple pies 40 minutes before you close? I went elsewhere. Just like I'll do in the future. read more

Disappointed, some workers will not reserve a single or two smallish pies by phone. More than once I have made a sixty-mile round trip to be very let down. No chicken pot pies left! Sold out! I am told no reserving policy. Thanks, Merry Christmas read more

It does not matter if it's chicken or banana cream, get your ass over there and get a pie! You won't be sorry. Quiche is awesome as well.

I had a huge craving for lemon meringue pie recently. My mother used to make them when we were kids and it is a favorite that I haven't had in years. Theirs is DELICIOUS! The meringue is light and piled high, there is plenty of tangy lemon filling which holds it's form and then runs a bit once cut. And, the filling is tangy not creamy! The crust is flaky and tasty and minimal, as it should be. Yay! I'm so glad these pies are a medium size rather than large because I cannot not eat one all in one sitting. read more
