Q - How often does your menu change? What about your daily selection?
A - We have four menus per year that change with the season. We offer 8 or 9 types of sweet pie daily, 4 pot pies (2 meat, 2 vegetarian), and 2 hand pies (1 meat, 1 vegetarian). Our menu seeks to reflect what is seasonal and fresh, particularly what is grown in our area of Virginia.
Q - What are your prices?
A - Slices are $4, hand pies are $5, pot pies are $6.50, cobbler is $7. Our whole pies range from $25-28 (most sweet pies are $25 - pecan is $28 and seasonal fruit pies are $26-28).
Q - Do you have whole pies for sale daily?
A - Yes, we do sell whole sweet pies, but it is first-come, first-serve. We have a limited number available to buy in the shop and the choices reflect what we are running in the case for slices. If you desire a specific type of pie from the menu, please make a special order!
Q - How do I place a special order?
A - We prefer you call the shop at 434.977.0443. We are a small, busy shop and may not be able to answer the phone immediately, but please leave a brief message with your name and contact info so we can return your call. We also ask for 48 hours notice - our kitchen and staff is small, and we have a production schedule set in place. The more advance notice we receive, the easier for us to fulfill!
Q - Can I order a larger-sized version of the savory pot pies?
A - Yes, you can, however, by special order only and the 48-72 hour notice is required. Family-size savory items are limited to the production and shop schedule. Please call the shop to verify what is available and when. Family-sized pies are $28 and serve 6-8.
Q - Do you offer... show more gluten-free and vegan options? A - We do, with the caveat that although we employ a baker who bakes on separate days from the rest of the kitchen and in a different area, there is always the chance of contamination, so please keep that in mind. We can also take special orders for gluten-free/vegan sweet and savory items but we ask for 72 hours notice or more if possible as the scheduling for those items requires rearranging the kitchen schedule.
Q - What do you use in your pie crust?
A - We are 100% butter. In fact, our crust ingredients are simple - flour (locally milled in Ashland, VA), sugar, salt, and butter. We do not use Crisco or lard in any of our products.
Q - Do you cater weddings and/or events?
A - We do! Please email us at thepiechest@gmail.com to begin the process of booking an event.
Q - Do you have in-house seating?
A - We are a small cafe with seating for up to 24 people. We also feature a full coffee bar through our partnership with Lone Light Coffee.
Q - Do you deliver?
A - We do not do individual deliveries but we offer delivery (for a small fee) for our catered/booked events.
