Who is saying "ya know what would go great with this ice cream? Pie filling!" Had once and not worth a second try

Wow - the hype is real. We stopped by just past 8 pm last night on a long and muggy walk back to our hotel at upper King St, from the far south point of King St --- we as in our family of 6 (my wife + I + 4 kids under 8 yrs old). We were in dire need for a quality dessert stop. I had bookmarked Peace Pie on Yelp to stop by on our Charleston visit, and randomly this location was on our walk back coincidentally - pure destiny. Unfortunately with Covid, there's no one allowed in, so we ordered at the window. All 6 of us shared two - coconut cream pie and cookies & cream. The person helping us took our order, went to the freezer and brought them both out to us. I was a bit underwhelmed realizing that they were pre-made and pre-frozen... BUT...to my surprise, they were absolutely amazing. It's also probably better they get a deep freeze beforehand so they last longer before melting...so my first impression was 100% inaccurate. The the subtle pie filling with each is just right and enough to make these ice cream sandwiches different than any other normal ice cream sandwich. It's fairly pricey, but one of the few ice cream places worth their weight in what they charge. I highly recommend stopping by to indulge yourself in an above-average ice cream sandwich with a multitude a flavor options. read more

The best ice cream sandwich we ever tried in Charleston. First time trying Salted Caramel Apple and it was so good. Not too creamy, buttery, or sweet like many other ice cream shops. Definitely will come back for more. Store is covid safe and practices social distance. No dine in. Just ring the bell at the door. read more

[4.5/5 stars] I can't believe that I'm from New Jersey and I tried my first Peace Pie in Charleston, South Carolina! The Boy and I split the Salted Caramel Brownie one; they even cut it in half for us. The cookie and the pie filling with ice cream are to die for. Wouldn't hesitate to get another one next chance I get. read more

Not a normal ice cream place but a great ice cream sandwich. I had the pecan pie. I would definitely check it out read more

So many delicious looking and sounding choices, went for the Elvis: chocolate ice cream, peanut butter mousse, banana, on chocolate sandwich. My husband got the special: peanut butter caramel and brownie. We were worried the would be a melted mess to eat in sunny 95 degree weather, but they are premade and frozen, so as big as they are, they were easy to eat and not messy while walking. Oh, dis I mention how delicious? Mine was better by the way read more

So many fun flavors to choose from! I love that they had pictures of each choice on the wall and labeled so that you could see what it looked like prior to ordering. The worst part of the whole experience is waiting long enough for the ice cream to soften so you can really enjoy it! If you love ice cream as much as me I definitely recommend checking out peace pie! They also recently opened a second location in Charleston off of upper king. read more

We expected the choice to pick cookies and ice cream and the sandwich be made in front of you. This isn't what happens, basically they have premade sandwiches that are frozen. No modifications can be made. The cookies were incredibly hard and the ice cream hard too, as the sandwiches were frozen for who knows how long. In my experience, mine tasted pretty good. I got the salted caramel one. But others with me got ones like the peanut butter and chocolate brownie. They said that theirs had minimal flavor, with the peanut butter barely noticeable. I will say, these may be better when it's warmer out. We also went on pi day, so 3 for $14 wasn't a bad price. Service was fine, quick and friendly. read more

A simple small store front. The person working didn't seem to pleased to be serving us, but I looked past it. This was my first stop into this location. Holy wowza. Highly recommend. It was SO good and totally worth the $6 they charge. I had the red eye. Delish, but don't recommend eating it at night. They only have one table inside, so keep that in mind when going in. There are benches outside. read more

So delish!! So many choices...I swear, if I lived here, I would be here every single week trying all the different sandwiches. In the end, I stuck to my childhood favorite of strawberry shortcake. The cookies were perfect & not too thick so when I finished, I really felt I could order another sandwich, but that would've been glutinous. read more

Great idea for ice cream sandwiches w lots of options. Cut ours in half and shared as it was just right size for us. read more

Great pies! Stopped for a sweet treat after a belly full at Hymans and this place definitely satisfied! Great ice cream and great idea. So many varieties that it was hard to pick. I chose the mint chocolate since it is my fav and how can you mess that one up right? Well they knocked it out of the park and I would definitely return. Awesome place for a quick treat! read more

All the pie sandwiches looked delicious. I tried the chocolate brownie one because I am a big chocolate person and loved it. My friend tried the strawberry cream pie and loved it as well. Don't bite right after buying it- wait till it's outside for a minutes or two since the sandwhich is really hard. There is no seating here so you have to buy it to go. The guy at the counter was really helpful as well. Definitely recommend trying this place if you're in the area. read more

There is a reason there is always a line at Peace Pie--HELLLOOO, it's delish! David and I were looking for a sweet treat and we kept seeing people with these ice cream sandys, not knowing the details of the sandys beforehand we weren't entirely enticed. BUT upon learning more, PIE CUST, PIE FILLING mixed with ICE CREAM we were ready for a taste! The desserts were perfectly designed and the server was right, you have to wait at least five minutes before chomping into one of these because it will be the right amount melted and ready to enjoy. A little pricey, but it's one of those trendy things you are willing to pay for. It's a really unique flavor and something fun to try. While you're in Charleston, this should be a stop on an afternoon adventure. read more

There are few things I love more in life than ice cream. OK, maybe a *bit* of an overstatement, but seriously Peace Pie is enough to make you want to eat all. the. ice. cream. The vehicle of choice for the ice cream is the conventional cookie wafers--yup, an ice cream sandwich. However, this isn't just any ice cream sandwich. The creative ice cream combinations are smashed together between two perfect shortbread cookie wafers. The shop is small, but the selection of ice cream sandwiches packs a mighty punch. For my inaugural journey, I selected "The Elvis" which was obviously a delightful smash-up of peanut butter and banana ice cream between 2 chocolate cookie wafers. Like all Peace Pies, you have to give it a second to thaw out a little bit (which is no problem in the warm Charleston sun) for optimal eating. It was so rich that Hubs had to help me finish eating it; which he wasn't too sad about. All-in-all this is a hotspot that is too cool to miss out on! read more

I know this is a beloved for many, but the Peace Pie didn't do it for me. I found both the cookie and ice cream to be a little too hard and didn't enjoy it as much as I anticipated I would. My wife and I shared the strawberry Peace Pie. The ice cream itself didn't have the wow-factor, but it's possible it was just a little too hard and cold. We ate it on the go and the cookie certainly had a nice firm texture and sweet crumble, but the strawberry ice cream wasn't as creamy or flavorful as I liked. All in all, it was fun to patronize this hippie-inspired business. It was even more fun to take pictures of us trying to devour this massive Peace Pie and see how far our mouths could open to bite it. The flavor and taste itself? Not as fun as the start of the process. Your results may vary, I'd definitely give this another try if I lived in Charleston and try some other flavors. read more

We absolutely love Peace Pie! I'm not sure they offer gluten free, but since I found out I need to go gluten free, I hope they'll consider it for at least one option... read more

This is an interesting concept: pie crust, ice cream, and some sort of gooey pie filling? What can go wrong?? Basically, nothing. Even though I work just down the street, I have surprisingly kept myself from frequenting on a daily basis. Interesting combos and great flavors. The only downside is that you need to let the pie "thaw" a little bit to thoroughly enjoy, but it's really hard to do that. Pick up a frequent peace pie card! read more

The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five was because of the pricing. I think it's just a bit too expensive for what it is (an ice cream sandwich), but it's SO good that I pay for it anyway. I'd go there every weekend if my wallet could afford it! The pecan pie sandwich is amazing! My friend didn't like the cookie part of the sandwich, but I really enjoy the cookie part, so I think it may be a you-love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing. I particularly appreciate that they cut their ice cream sandwiches in half if you're getting two and want to try both flavors with the person you're eating them with (ex. if you want vanilla and your friend wants chocolate, they can split both in half, to where you can eat 1/2 off the vanilla sandwich and 1/2 of the chocolate. Your friend would get the same.). Overall, I think this is definitely worth a trip if you're in Charleston. It's as good as Jeni's Ice Cream! read more

We were a little tuckered out from gorging ourselves with ice cream during our trip to Charleston, so we weren't planning to go to Peace Pie. But some greater power seemed to keep guiding us back to this ice cream place so we figured we had to go to please the ice cream gods! They sure were right to put this place in our path! I got the caramel apple and it gave my taste buds a beautiful trip down tasty road. I never wanted to finish it so I could keep eating! I wish I could have tried every flavor they had! Don't resist the ice cream gods and treat yourself to peace pie!!! read more

More of a cracker than a cookie, the ice cream was solid, however a tad bit more expensive than what we originally thought walking into the store. Overall a very average dessert but better places in Charleston to visit. read more

Delish! The perfect dessert for a Saturday evening. It's kind of hard to eat but once you get to the point to where you can get a bit of the ice cream and mousse + other toppings it's SOOOO good. We got the Salted Caramel Brownie and loved it. read more

If you want a pre made, freezer burnt, and overpriced "sandwich" then this is your place! Order two of these online so we could just pick them up when we got there; however when I walked in the girl had no idea I had an order until I insisted and showed her my confirmation email. She then grabbed two plastic containers, opened a deep freezer and pulled two items out. She placed one in each box and presented it. Well one was right, but the other wasn't even the right flavor! Then came the taste, well it's your typical dry cookie from the dollar tree with some off brand freezer burnt ice crystal covered ice cream in the middle. Never again for this guy. Try it at your own risk. read more

I stopped in here with my kids on a hot and humid Sunday. My son ended up picking out the S'mores pie.

I definitely want to go back to try more flavors. read more

After stuffing myself with some delicious seafood, we were on a hunt for some ice cream to finish off our decadent meal. It was close to 8pm so we pulled out the handy dandy Yelp app to see what was around. There was an ice cream shop super close, but it closed at 8pm. Could we make it in 13 minutes? We set off to try. While driving, I kept looking and Peace Pie popped up with an 11pm closing. Bingo. We quickly shifted gears and headed over to Peace Pie so we wouldn't risk getting to the other place and missing out on some ice cream. This place offers a huge variety of ice cream sandwiches. They are cookies filled with ice cream and pie filling. Cookies. Ice Cream. Pie. What's not to love?!? The coolers were filled with about 15 different varieties of ice cream sandwiches. After about 10 minutes of indecision, we finally made a decision. We went with banana cream pie and peanut butter chiffon. We decided to split the sandwiches so the kind guy working split them for us with a knife. Hooray! Both sandwiches were great, but I liked the banana cream pie better. Sacrilege really because I can never get enough peanut butter and chocolate. The peanut butter chiffon was super rich and I could only eat a few bites of it. The banana cream pie did a better job of not overwhelming me by being too rich. I couldn't eat all of either half. Each sandwich was $6. Not bad considering I usually pay over $5 for just two scoops of ice cream. read more

You may be surprised to hear, but I went here TWO DAYS IN A ROW because it's so good! The woman recommended their homemade ice cream since it's not always an option and boy was I glad I trusted her. First day I had the creams brûlée and second I had the cinnamon bun. The place doesn't look like much, but GO HERE. You won't be disappointed. read more

Finally got to cross this off my foodie list. We were walking around downtown on a super hot day so I wanted to get a sandwich to cool down. I was sad there was no red velvet but I got the salted caramel brownie sandwich. They keep the cooler cold enough that it took awhile to thaw which is good when it's close to 100 degrees outside. It's chocolate cookie on the outside with two brownie bites, vanilla ice cream and a big layer of caramel. It was great. The brownies tasted different to me since they were frozen but all of the layers together worked great. It was $6 which I feel is fair for what all you get. Definitely check it out if you're needing a sweet treat. read more

"You use the word "divine" too much. It's just an ice-cream sandwich." -- Modern Family: Season 5 | Episode 4 Thanks, Yelp. I'm a bigger fan now of your Nearby with the Open Now filter - Forever grateful, in fact! After a wonderful dinner full of fried seafood, Tanya C and I used your skills to find ice cream (there's always room for ice cream, right?) and found a few choices. We hopped in the car and with my navigator at the ready, Tanya got me going in the right direction. We had a couple of options, but really weren't going to make it in time to location 1. Then she found Peace Pie. Parking is all street parking; luckily we had plenty of time before PP was set to close. We found a nearby lot and walked a few blocks and man, was it worth it! We walked in and found ourselves presented with a case chock full of dreamy ice cream sandwiches. Now we had to make decisions. The proprietor said (since he wasn't busy) that he would cut the sandwiches in half for us so we could share - thank goodness. Otherwise, I'm not sure I could have narrowed it down to just one flavor. We opted for the peanut butter chiffon (Tanya and I are both suckers for peanut butter and chocolate everything) and the banana cream pie. He wrapped them up for us in wax paper and we paid - only $6 each. Apparently, this is too pricey for some, but in Atlanta we pay $5 for 2 scoops of ice cream which is about the same size as one of these sandwiches, so for me this is just right. Each sandwich is two shortbread cookies, a scoop of ice cream and pie filling. Oh joy! Now, the peanut butter chiffon is so rich, I couldn't finish the half. I think I left about 2 bites. It definitely needs to be served with a huge glass of milk or some coffee. You could feel it in the back of your throat at the roof of your mouth rich - that was crazy. Luckily, we got the banana cream pie which was much more subtle and I could finish that one. Not too sweet, and so I did my best to go back and forth between the two - this half I was able to polish off. Over all, I'm a fan and am sad we don't have anything like this in Atlanta - just New Jersey and Charleston. Oh well, a return trip is a must, I guess! read more

When I realized that this spot was just a few short blocks away from Theatre 99, where we'd planned to see some Improv, I figured it was pre-ordained for us to stop here afterward. Besides. Ice cream and pie filling sandwiched between cookies. What's not to like? Anyway, I let hubby choose a flavor combo for us to share. Probably a mistake. Since his pick of Coffee Toffee, which included coffee ice cream and caramel tasted way off balance to me. The caramel was so sweet and cloying that it overwhelmed any java flavor the ice cream may have had. Had that ice cream been Jeni's Intellegentsia Espresso, *maybe* it could have withstood all that caramel, but not this. Kid went with Chocolate-Mint, which included mint ice cream and a chocolate mousse filling. I snuck a taste and liked this much more because the mint flavor really popped. But there was nothing subtle about it, so I think only hardcore mint lovers would appreciate this one. Ultimately, though, I just didn't think either the cookies or ice cream were special enough to merit the price. But I did appreciate our chatty, friendly counterperson, who kindly offered to slice the ice cream sandwich hubby and I were sharing in half. She also confided to us that Peace Pie is based in Cape May, New Jersey. Northeastern states represent! read more

Such an amazing treat. Loved the ice cream and cookie on the outside. We got the s'mores and triple chocolate and they were both amazing!!

This place makes delicious specialty ice cream sandwiches! There are many flavor options, some standard flavors plus some more unique flavors. I really like "The New Classic" which has chocolate cookies, vanilla ice cream, plus chocolate and vanilla mousse fillings. The sandwiches are $6 each which seems high, but for the taste and the size (very large, very shareable) I think it's reasonable. Friendly staff as well! read more
