Plenty of Pies, Some Improvements Possible

First, let me say I've only been one time. I look forward to building on more experiences, which tells you I will be going back and would recommend it as a place to at least try once.

The best thing is their extensive list of pies. You'd be hard-pressed to think of a pie they don't have.

As for their decor, I'd say the jury is still out. It is much like an old I-HOP building that hasn't been updated since the early 70s. Some might say that is part of their quirkiness and is a purposeful atmosphere for which they are aiming. I guess I can buy it, but there are times when an update might be nice. The bench seating at the booth reminded me more of a Waffle House.

The pies seemed okay, but not as spectacular as I might have hoped. It would depend greatly upon whether you are a "whipped cream" or a "meringue" person. I lean toward meringue. I lean toward the flakier, more difficult crusts. I want the texture to be just perfect. They seem to impress more by quantity than quality. Having said that, the quality isn't bad, even good, just not spectacular. My disclaimer is that I have tasted only two of their pies, the Bayou Goo and the Turtle Cheesecake. Hopefully more opportunities will come. Go to their web site and check out their menu. Pretty impressive.

Everything you always hope a diner will be

A low key atmosphere, a huge mix of people from all walks of life, competent service, and FANTASTIC food at prices I haven't seen in 10 years. I can not wait to go back. Perfection is in the details, and they don't miss a thing, even my hot chocolate was de-lish!

Cross Dresser

This sighting has stuck in my head for over 25 years. I was eating a late night snack at this restaurant when a man, in full colorful outfit consisting of a dress, scarve, and high heels jumped up from his seat at the counter and forcefully declared after being taunted, "I'll start wearing pants when women start wearing dresses!" Everybody in the restaurant was momentarily stunned by this comment. After a few seconds, one could hear a few chuckles and the look of amusement on many diners' faces. It is not often that one gets to experience such a spectacle! The ironic thing was that I was told by a friend before going to the House of Pies that I could witness some unusual patrons adorned in flamboyant regalia.

I love House of Pies - good food/Great service

I have been going for years and have had consistently great service and the food has always been good. I love this place. Inexpensive too. :)

Bad Service

I have been eating there for over a year and over the past several months it seems like the waitress always gets our order wrong, then cuts corners and brings us cold food. I just visited Sunday and the order was no where close to right. Then when we got the right order the eggs were cold and the french toast undercooked. I am not impressed at all and will find a different place to eat breakfast.
