I've visited before and although this place is small with a little parking lot and seating that fills up fast, it's famous for a reason and worth the visit. The name alone is so cute and whimsical - who WOULDN'T want to visit a 'Pie Bar'!? This review will focus on some savory and dessert pies we ordered as takeout to serve at a party. Tofu Pot Pie - I love that this was an option - it's so hard to find a tofu pot pie anywhere, let alone in a cute little empanada style shape! One was pretty filling and could easily be a full lunch portion for some. The crust was buttery and flaky and perfectly golden, as was the crust on everything. Spanakopita Hand Pie - very tasty and flavorful. The darkness of the spinach threw me off at first, but this was really yummy and I could've eaten multiple. Street Corn Hand Pie - great flavors and unique combination Blackberry Tangerine Pie with crumble on top (I think this was the fruit combo?) - I'm not normally a huge fan of fruit pies as they just don't excite me as much, but this one had such a phenomenal sugary crumble on top that I ate it right up. The fruit wasn't too hard or too mushy and blended well together. Key Lime Pie - a very rich, creamy, decadent pie. This seems higher in cream content than some other key lime pies and filled me up quickly so I could only have a little bit in one sitting, but it's phenomenal. Many at the party went back for seconds of this one. Service - we called to place an order ahead of time. Day of, the Pie Bar called to say the tofu option was running low, but they could secure us some extras if we wanted since we only ordered one. We really only needed the one for the lone vegetarian, but this thoughtfulness was so appreciated! This place is a slam dunk and I always look forward to seeing what will be next on their rotating menu. I wish some of my favorites stayed around longer - I really loved their Mac n Cheese hand pie that I had once years ago - it was flaky and incredible, I dream of it! read more

We stopped for takeout, a quick snack. It has an adorable storefront that appropriately says Pie Bar. Now how can you pass that by? Midday the place was bustling, a good sign. The menu is nicely divided between sweet and savory. I got two specials. one savory pie, Moroccan inspired with lentils. There was only one dessert item left (3: o'clock or so) a brown butter pie. Wouldn't be my first choice but, like I said the only sweet left. Both about $6.00 and delicious! Service was excellent. They have it down to a science! The savory pie was warmed to perfection! read more

Cuteeeeee little cafe & pie shop! I pass by Florence Pie Bar when visiting family in the area and always say I am going to stop in. Well, this was the weekend it finally happened. So much good here: Amazing pie, kind staff, cutest vibes, and lots of outdoor seating and a fair amount of indoor seating. I stopped in the Saturday before Easter and they were a little low on baked goods (no actually pie left sadly) but I still snagged myself one of the custard key lime pie bites. It was SO good. I would get it again in a heartbeat. Perfect coconut crust, amazing custard. It was delicious. We also grabbed a few iced coffees that hit the spot. Worth a visit if you have a sweet tooth or even a hankering for a coffee. read more

I have worked in Florence a few years and have been meaning to try this place. Parking was a little tricky due to the recent snow storm but I persevered and found parking. The place is so cozy. You walk through a curtain and head over to the counter and display case. The menu and prices are on the board above. Well thought aesthetics, it's small but it works. I had the buffalo chicken hand pie. It was warmed and I'm glad I got two. I got the brown sugar chocolate chip cookie and the cookie of the month. It was lemon flavored and simply divine. The allure of Florence is everything is mostly unique and cozy. Florence Pie Bar checked both boxes. read more

I simply adore the pie bar and everyone who works there. the menu rotates but today I had a slice of quiche that was so delicious, but star of the show was the cranberry orange scone and biscoff cookies and cream pie. Y U M. YUM !!!!!!!! I hope the pie bar lives forever read more

Yumm! Tried the strawberry rhubarb galette, with coffee! No complaints here! Sat outside and enjoyed every minute of it read more

Pros: -Absolutely adorable exterior & interior vibe -outdoor seating -quick service -sweet and savory options I wished there was a chocolate pie option, but there were some other chocolate sweets available and I should have tried. The hand pie we tried had a delicious buttery & flaky dough and I think I preferred it to the apple pie. If I were back in the area I'd try another hand pie and one of the chocolate offerings! read more

Cute little spot in Florence. Yummy sweet and savory pie options. They also have coffee, cider, and teas.

Nice combo of sweet and savory pies. The meat pie is yummmmm. So are the sweet pies. This is a cute small spot with good pie production. Check it out. read more

This is a great little place - emphasis on the teeny, tiny. They have sweet and savory items and you'll need to taste your way through the menu bc you'll love somethings while others are just ok. I love their rugelach, chicken hand pie, and channa hand pie. I've had others a love but those are regulars. Their sweet pies are great. Not a huge fan of their brownies or brown butter cookies but they've been on the menu forever so they're clearly fan favorites. Try it. You will find things you love. read more

I'm knocking one star off because I went at noon on a Wednesday and was told "we are completely out of pie ". This is not the first time it has happened. Which I suppose is a good thing. Their pie is in high demand. But it's a bummer when you get there and there is no pie to be had. Aside from that, they did have some delicious lunch options, including some pastries - so I had my fill. The place is impeccably clean. Including the bathroom. They have a very cute outside area that is quite spacious. It's a lovely and quite charming place that you should visit if you haven't been before or even if you have! There were plenty of friendly staff working and food was served quickly. read more

This is one of the best places to pick your pie in the state of Massachusetts! I drive here once to twice a year from Boston to pick up something which is generally 1.5-3 hour drive depending on traffic. Here is generally my thoughts: Florence Pie use ingredients that are in seasons which also means apples aren't always available. If you plan to visit, I would order the morning you plan to get there or atleast the night before to place a to go order. Ask what is in season and what they recommend. When you get there, there is a lot things to eat there that aren't just pie. Savor pies, quiches, coffee, soups, and others available. I always enjoy getting a quick lunch there before I leave with some pies. If you are a post card writer, I would pick up some. read more

amazing espresso, delicious pie, great interior. This place is awesome. They do it all so well. my friends and I bit into a coconut cream pie and i started floating away... I don't know if she is or not honestly read more

Super cute pie bar with sweet and savory options! Love that they change up their flavors regularly. They also sell frozen pies for you to take and bake. They sell coffee as well. There's a decent amount of seating inside and outside on their back patio. Service is always very friendly. The only downside is parking can be tight, but that's to be expected on Main St. read more

New owners and the Bar has been lowered... The classic Pie Bar's pecan pie was legendary. I religiously pre-ordered it for holidays for several years. The custard was like no other: buttery in texture, just the right level of sweetness, and a deep, complex flavor with hints of cocoa. The crust was ample and flaky. A true delight. I am sad to report that pie of my dreams is no more. They have reduced the amount of crust; the rim is barely there and the bottom so thin it might at well be paper. Further, I believe they changed the fat mix, because the flakes are more or less gone. (Might just be rolled too thin, in their effort to shrink their crust cost.) Worst of all, the custard is now cloying, simple, and just like any other pecan pie filling I have had: boring, gelatinous, and sickly sweet. The lemon chess filling was fine, but the skimpy crust was fatal flaw. Finally, the new owners lack grace completely. They do not say thank you. They do not chat. Your thank you is met with: 'No problem'--a graceless response. We do not owe you our business! Goodbye, I will miss my delightful pies and pray for a day that someone serious about quality and appreciative of their customers opens a new shop... read more

Deliciousness all around. Coffee and pie. What's not to like. Service is quick. Smells are magnificent.

I'm sticking with 5 stars. I was a bit worried with the change of ownership - but my fears have not been realized, thankfully. I've been in several times under the new owners and can report that the pie deliciousness continues. Just yesterday I had a cranberry chocolate chip scone. Wonderful. Moist, intensely flavorful, just the right amount of crisp on the thing. Yum. I also rounded up several of the "day old" treats - at the bargain price of $1.50. A shot in the microwave and they are as good as new :) Also, I really like what they've done with the space. Very very cute. read more

As a connoisseur of all types of pie, I eagerly awaited the chance to have a slice from the Florence Pie Bar. Was immediately disappointed that there was only takeout. On a hot summer day I did not picture having to eat my pie outside. Also- there were only three types of pie to choose from. I would've expected a place that calls them self a " pie bar" would have more than three choices??? I selected the cherry pie which was okay. Above average, but at $ 4.75 for a small-sized slice a disappointment. Not terrible, but not what I expected. read more

Omg. Legit the BEST pie crust I have ever eaten in my life. I love pie but rarely eat the actual crust. This crust- I ate every bite. The server would only tell me it's made with butter...I want that pie crust recipe!!! I had lemon chess pie, and my son had the beef tamale savory hand pie. Both were delicious but I'm blown away by that sweet pie! Wish I lived in Florence...wait a minute, maybe it's actually a good thing I don't live here or I would be here far too often. No indoor seating, just a few tables outdoors if that matters to you. read more

This place has the most delicious fresh made treats. I love that they keep their menu updated online. The German chocolate mini pies should be eaten as often as possible. I can't say enough good about them. Coffee made perfect. Love this place. I don't think you can find a better bakery read more

This place is hazardous on the weight! You might go in for a cup of coffee. Then, you will say, well a small galette won't hurt. Maybe a cup of soup...but, it's soup that's healthy, let's go for a bowl! That needs some bread of some sort....maybe a savory pie of some sort. I walked here, that counts as exercising, I deserve that, actually, I even deserve that slice of apple pie too... OK....I feel better now. I will walk all the way home, which will burn so much more calories, maybe I will deserve another pie for later tonight or for tomorrow for breakfast? read more

What's not to love about consistently excellent pie? I come here whenever I am in town.

OMG PIE! We were exploring the area during this incredibly cold weekend and as we drove by, I proclaimed "oh my god a PIE BAR... I want pie!". So we found the safest corner to turn around, parked on a side street and briskly walked (no ran) to get delicious coffee and pie. The chocolate mint was to-die-for good. My french press coffee for-one was perfection. The warm-hearted local that shared her table with us made us feel all the more welcomed. The service was friendly, the atmosphere was cozy, and I swear I experience cafe ecstasy on one of the last days of 2017. Go here. Do it. If you like quaint and tasty and PIE (and seriously, who doesn't love pie??) then this is the place for you. And me. Me me me. I'd buy a house in this neighborhood just to be near the Pie Bar. (Okay maybe not, but it was amazing!) read more

I have driven by the pie bar several times and finally made it in with my daughter. We ordered the lemon ginger pie with a glass of milk and coffee. The pie was AMAZING! Although I only had 2 bites of this light, tart flavorful goodness with a graham cracker crust because my daughter at the whole thing in 38 seconds! Still hungry I went back to the counter to order apple cranberry crisp...which was served with whipped cream and ...cold. Hmmm, I guess I get not wanting to microwave made-from-scratch pies and crisps, but I think cold apple crisp is much worse than microwaved apple crisp. I ate a few spoonfuls and then gave up and took the rest home where I can warm it up later. The ambiance was great and I am sure to be back, but eating cold crisp before headed back into the cold winter made me sad :( read more

My goodness these people can bake! I find it a little pricey but it makes a great indulgence

Delicious choices of sweet & savory pies! The Lime Coconut bite was ridiculously good! Dulce De Leche cheesecake bites were phenomenal. The rhubarb pie was amazing as well. I've had a couple of savory items. Long story short, I don't think you could find a bad item here. Really, it's that good. read more

Looks like it's either love or hate for the Pie Bar. I'm going to go on record as a love. Admittedly, they're still having growing pains, and once the fervor drops off I'm sure that this will be a happy and welcome spot to get some really excellent pie. I was there the second weekend at about 1 pm. The line wasn't too bad. And people had to manage themselves in the process of getting their order in, and getting served. That would honestly be about the only suggestion I'd make regarding the service. (People generally tend to suck when it comes to a: being patient (As we can see in some of the other reviews) and b: Playing fair.) I was able to get a slice each of the Salted Chocolate, the Key Lime, and the Apple. The flavors were perfect. And better still they complimented each other really really well. The key lime wasn't really set, and that would be the one ding in the pies themselves. It was a bit more of a liquid than a solid, but even so, the flavor was marvelous. I also had a tea, which was served in a glass mug and made from real leaves in a brewing bag. A friend and I polished them off pretty competently, and for 3 slices and a tea it was appx $15. Honestly not a bad price all things considered. There is AMPLE street parking around the shop, and a few select spots in a small lot in front of it. read more

Though I love supporting a local pie business that creates inspired baked goods and everything smells like luscious butter, my biggest critique is the SIZE of a slice of pie for $5 or $5.50 which is the smallest piece of pie you will find anywhere and it will be smaller than your adult hand. Today is Mother's Day and I took pictures of the $5.50 Italian Almond Tart slice next to the $3 scone. The scone is bigger and burnt on the bottom. Does that make sense to you? I want to ask the Florence Pie Bar to use a standard pie pan that is 9 inches in diameter and 1-1/4 inches deep so charging $5 a slice would be more respectful to their loyal customers; or, reduce the prices of your tiny slices. And on a positive note, their food is delicious and the hand pies are wonderful. But if the scones are going to be bigger than the slices of pie, maybe they should rename their business the Florence Scone Bar. 50% Of the time, your baked good will be a little burnt like the bottom of my scone this morning. The staff are very nice, but the portions and prices and baking quality could have some improvements. read more

Delicious pies and pastries in an adorable atmosphere! We tried the ham and cheese twist, and a French meat pie- both amazing! Next time we will be in the area we will certainly be back to try something along the sweeter end. I have no doubt based on the presentation and aroma that everything here is exceptional.

I bought a pumpkin pie for thanksgiving at another local place and tasted it on Wednesday. It tasted vaguely like soap, or perfumed in some way. I figured I'd use whipped cream when serving , and all would be well. After all, it cost $22. But I called the PB on thanksgiving morning, and the person who answered told me they *might* have a few pies at 11, and if they did she'd call me. She did call, and they did have a pumpkin pie. So I bought it, and IT WAS DELICIOUS with or without whipped cream. I'm so glad I did, even with the extra expense. Best pumpkin pie I can remember having. read more

Pie bar is a quaint little spot in the middle of Florence. A friend and I stopped in earlier today for a quick cup of coffee and slice of pie. She had a slice of the Shoofly, which had a gooey molasses filling - it had the texture of pecan pie (without the pecans) and the warmth and richness of a chewy molasses cookie. Delicious! Great if you have a real sweet tooth. I had a slice of the brown butter and sour cherry tart, which really hit the spot! The crust was perfect - buttery and flakey with a bit of crispiness to the edges. The filling had a nice eggy custard flavor which balanced the mild tartness of the cherries. I would definitely order it again! Overall a good experience. I can't wait to go back and try their other offerings! read more

I stop in for savory morning delights here, usually on the weekends. What a wonderful addition to the landscape.

I had a mix of sweet and savory my first trip in here with an onion potato situation and a strawberry rhubarb pie. The pie was honestly just so-so but the onion potato thing was killer! The prices were a bit high, too. My friend opted for a lemon pie slice and brought a s'more slice home for her hubs. Both looked solid. She also got a basil lemonade and said it was out of this world. I think I need to give them another shot. The pie I got was missing half of the crust and the presentation was super sloppy. I'm thinking a whole pie would make a big difference. read more

I love coming here. Definitely a great spot to hit if you are in the area. Every time I'm out in western Massachusetts I make it a point to stop here. I always come in and order a few different slices on the menu to get a good offering of all the flavors. Every time I come the service is very fast and the customer service is great. My only complaint is I wish they had more parking. It's a quaint little local spot that everyone should try. read more

I get that it's called a pie bar and if you're looking for a place to get a slice of pie, it's probably a great place. But for buying pies, this place never has anything in stock! The pie is pretty good when you can get it, but on too many occasions I've gone into this place and been unable to buy a pie for a dinner party or event. I'm not talking Thanksgiving, where of course it'll be tough, I'm talking some random Saturday at 1 pm. I love pie, when people ask me what my favorite food group is, I say pie. When the Pie Bar opened, I was giddy, but their ability to bake enough pies to meet demand is infuriating and I don't think I'll ever go back in - it's just always a disappoinment. Every time I drive or bike by I get excited, PIE! and every time I try to get pie, I'm disappointed. Maybe I should get there at 8 am, but when I used to go to Petsi's Pies in Somerville, they always had a host of full pies to choose from. If I got pie, I'd give five stars, but the lack of pie makes me give this place a single star, I've just been disappointed too many times. read more

Every pie, sweet or savory, I have gotten from here has been a standout. They have a salted chocolate and lemon chess pie that are exceptional and make a mean key lime. Great rotation keeps things fresh, always a go to when we are in the area. read more
