All sorts of amazing sweet and savory pies. Small but very cute space. Friendly staff.

This is a little gem in the small town of Chester, VT. My friends and I just completed the Vermont Inn to Inn walking tour and upon reaching our final destination in Chester, stopped here. I had a double espresso macchiato & a slice of maple buttermilk pie! My friend had a maple nut scone. The food was delicious. The scone was not dry and the hint of maple was just right. The maple buttermilk pie was to die for!! They have other food items on the menu, but we just needed a treat. The service was friendly and efficient. I especially appreciated the affordable prices. I mentioned this to the proprietor and he said they want prices affordable for locals, so they don't jack them up for tourists. That was a huge plus to me! The restaurant is rather small, but there are enough tables for seating and there was no rush for us to move along. This is a must stop in Chester! read more

The chai latte filled only half the cup tasted like syrup.. the Americana was bland at best.. should have tried before we left. Pies looked good but was traveling through and wanted a pick me up.. we ordered a large chai and received 1/2 a small.. worker looked overwhelmed too many orders to get right read more

We especially appreciated this place because they make lunch sandwiches early in the morning, so we could get one early to eat on the VT Inn to Inn walk during the day. And the sandwiches were excellent. The turkey with cranberry mayo was especially good. They also had great coffee and cookies. Staff was very pleasant and helpful. Funny, they only thing we did not try were the pies, but they looked awesome! read more

Went to this cute cafe for a quick bite and to try their pie. I ordered the ham, egg, and cheese breakfast sammy and tasted two different pies. The sandwich was great---lots of meat, soft bun, and fresh tasting. The pies were a mixed bag. The peach raspberry sour cream tasted grassy like a pasture (strange flavor). However, the bourbon pecan was delicious. Great crust and not too sweet like other pecan pies I've tasted. Cute place, easy parking, bathroom, good service. read more

Took my grandkids to celebrate my birthday and everyone loved their food( picky eater included). Topped it off pie a la mode. Hope to return this birthday read more

I love to bake and have several apple pie recipes that are family favorites. I recently had a piece of their pie that rivaled mine-so delicious. I also had a piece of their Golden Maple Pie which was also very good. Looking forward to trying more. If you like pie, you won't be disappointed. The restaurant is located on the main drag in Chester with plenty of other businesses to wander in & out of. Make an afternoon of it! read more

We visit Chester, Vt. Once a year and always have the best coconut chess pie!! It is the Best pie we have ever had. Kudos to the owner, pie bakers, and staff! Thank you! read more

This was an adorable place to stumble upon in the winter months and the cozy Chester center. My almost 10-year-old and I enjoyed a breakfast here she had a cinnamon raisin bagel toasted with peanut butter. She spread on herself and I enjoyed an egg and cheese on a local brioche bun and local Vermont cheese. It was delicious! There are about four tables inside and they also have board games for kids to play it was decorated very nicely for the holiday and the customer service was wonderful. read more

Just stopped in here on our way out of town after staying with some friends close by for a VT ski weekend. I had the ham, egg & cheese breakfast sandwich and it was a contender for one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. The bread was flaky, light, and buttery and the ham was abundant. We had a couple of pies with dinner last night and my boyfriend won't stop raving about how good they were. The cafe is also super cute and homey. Highly recommend!! read more

What a great shop! I learned about it thanks to www.Bring-Fido.com I was able to take my dogs. I got quiche. It was so good!! Then I got maple ice cream. I LOVE ice cream. My favorite ice cream I ever had was in Canada - maple ice cream. I have had maple ice cream several other times since that wonderful ice cream in Canada all those years ago - and nothing has compared to it. THIS PLACE has THE maple ice cream, though!! Leave it to Vermont to know how to make maple flavored anything that tastes perfect!! I was so happy, just eating my maple ice cream with my dogs. They brought water to my dogs too. My dogs promptly dumped the bowl. That's what they do. It's their talent. The shop keeper mopped it up cheerfully. I am so happy to have found this fun little shop in Vermont while I was visiting. If I lived closer, I would be a frequent visitor. read more

Great deli and fast service. Only place opened on Tuesday for miles. We ordered several different sandwiches and not a bite left. Pies were good too. Very crowded@ 1:30 pm read more

Best place in town. Great pies, pastries, sandwiches, coffee, and more. Cute cafe, relaxing vibe. It's unfortunate that they no longer have CBD available to put into drinks. Staff are always helpful and super friendly. But I think all the locals can agree with me, tourist season Sep-Nov, it's crazy here. Everyone from NY, CT, NJ, fill this place and you can't even enjoy your usual morning routine. Can't wait for tourist season to be over with read more

The pie is amazing I was blown away. I am not a blueberry fan but i took a chance and tried the peach and blueberry pie. It was delicious. read more

We went here on a friends recommendation and were not disappointed I had smashed chickpea wrap and it was awesome Husband had a turkey sandwich and he liked it too Took home a mixed berry sour cream pie....delish! Great spot in cute spot Took walk through cemetery across the street- really interesting history read more

Happened on this little gem when antique shopping. Quaint little shop with a great selection of sandwiches and pies. I had the roast beef with horseradish sauce and picked onions on fresh sourdough bread. Had to be one of the best sandwiches hands down I've ever had. Probably would not bother ordering anything other next time. My husband had the ham and son the chicken salad. All equally as tasty. The sandwiches had more meat than we have ever been served on a sandwich which was a nice surprise since they were a little pricey. We were so full we had to take pie to go! Side note, you can buy the whole pie abs select which flavors to make up the pie! Highly recommend you try this place out. Staff was very pleasant abs restrooms were clean!!! Enjoy! Sorry did not snap a picture of the sandwiches but we did the pies! read more

Had the famous pie and thought it was okay. My son raves about it, but I'd rather try their other pie's. Probably could have given them a 5 if flies weren't crawling on the uncovered pastries. I was kinda surprised there wasn't a glass globe over them, all others had them. read more

This place was so cute it makes me want to move to a little Vermont town. Egg and cheese was simple but so good, loved the brioche. Boyfriend got the "Elm St" turkey sandwich and also loved it. We both got flavored iced coffees and appreciated the coffee-ice-cubes and self serve dairy options. The girls working were super sweet as well! read more

Driving around VT stopping at all our VT cheese places. All but one was closed. We stopped in Chester, looking for a light lunch. The Southern Pie Cafe was the first place we saw. My wife asked the person taking our order if the Roast Beef was rare. "Yes" she answered. My wife ordered the Dodge Rd. and I the Depot St. The sandwiches were quickly at our table. Yes the beef was rare. Both sandwiches were very tasty and pretty large. We took half of each with us. We then ordered two slices of one of their pies, I think it was called Chocolate Bourbon Walnut. It was very good. Pleasant atmosphere and not very noisy even though all the tables were occupied and people kept coming in to pick up their to go orders. We'll have to remember this place the next time where in the area. Maybe only order and split one sandwich, if we aren't hungry. That will leave room for trying their other pies. read more

We ordered the blueberry sour cream pie and the chocolate croissant, both were good. The cherry crumb pie was fantastic! Almost had a rice pudding flavor which was unique and enjoyable. read more

I drove an hour and a half to eat here. They should have a big note on the site that reads, WE STOP SERVING SANDWICHES AT 3PM! # 1 bummer. The Caramel Latte was great, the apple square , great, the chocolate cookie, so so. My main reason for going here was a Bourbon Pecan Pie!!!!. Last one, mine. Was rather disappointed as it didn't have much bourbon flavor, nor much flavor at all, and the crust didn't want to let go from the pan, so it wasn't served well. Just an ok for the pie. Still want to return again on the bike to try one of the interesting sounding sandwiches. BEFORE 3PM! read more

We came at the end of the day on a Saturday in October. No pie slices, but there were a few cookie and scone options which was perfect for what my parents and I were looking for. I got a latte, my husband got a hot chocolate and my parents got decaf coffee. It was a perfect stop for a late afternoon pick me up. Definitely would stop here again, and I'd love to try their pies! read more

Such a good place . I love the southern pie shop they have great hot coco it's so cozy read more

We stopped here on a whim on our way home to CT. We ordered the Elm St sandwich & it was awesome!! The staff was friendly & service was quick. We sat outside at the bistro type tables to enjoy our lunch. read more

We got coffees here and two pies. The golden mountain latte was amazing. I highly recommend it. The inside is so cute, and is a nice place to do work. The service was a little slow with only one person behind the counter, but that is expected at a small coffee shop/pie shop. The pies were very sweet, so if you like sweet pies then those are good too. read more

I feel like Southern Pie's breakfast sandwich's deserve some clout, some of the best, if not THE best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. Best in Chester that's for sure. Pie's are right up there too! Our fav's are the fruit ones w sour cream read more

Fantastic ice coffee with coffee-ice-cubes! Fantastic latte, with all the alt milk options. Fantastic fresh quiches, breakfast sandwich (outstanding), baked oatmeal was something I'd never had before and loved...basically a cross between a bowl of oatmeal and pancakes? Try it! Super friendly! read more

My boyfriend and I came here everyday of our vacation because the food and service were that good! We tried four sandwiches and all were amazing as were the pies! Definitely a must try if you are visiting the area! Also shoutout to Janet who was training today she was the sweetest!! read more

Gosh I tried. As a southerner-transplant, I was looking forward to their pie! My chocolate pie barely had a 1/8" bottom crust (amazing it held up) and tasted more like chocolate pudding. Basically the crust was non-existent. And hubby's bourbon chocolate walnut was ok- pretty chocolate-chunky. I would say the crusts were most disappointing. I didn't buy the pecan because I really felt it might not deliver by the way it looked. I'm pretty picky. I'm sad to write this review but I wanted to be honest that these pies don't live up to their name. Maybe I'll try again. Doubt it. read more

Great coffee spot. Good muffins, scones and awesome bagels. Nice, relaxing spot to sit down have a bite and chat.

After Angela recommended the roast beef with horseradish we had to give it a shot!! The best part about it was the red onion jam - I was skeptical at first, but it ended up being the best part of the sandwich. The sourdough bread was tasty but a little crumbly. Definitely worth the trip. read more

Absolutely delicious pie! I picked up a maple buttermilk pie here for $22 and it was sooo good. Was a total hit at the dinner party I brought it too. The service was also prompt and friendly and I can tell they have a lot to offer here. Great spot! read more

What a cute place! Had wonderful coffee and almond shortbread! Will stop again. Excellent service too.

Great little cafe. Had a chai latte and breakfast sandwich, both were very good! Order in & got our lattes in giant mugs, which I love. Didn't try any pies but they looked delicious & saw many folks buying them while enjoying my breakfast in the window nook. read more

Simply the best pie. Mixed berry is my favorite but really you cannot go wrong (and I have tried them all!)
