Two blocks away from the hustle and bustle of Times Square, Little Pie Company is a modest and friendly pie heaven that has been around since 1985. Opened by Arnold Wilkerson, a former actor who left the theater to bake pies, Little Pie Company not only sells pie in-store, but it also accepts orders online and delivers to restaurants.

The huge kitchen makes all the pies from scratch with no preservatives, canned or pre-mixed ingredients. The pies also come in different sizes, the smallest being a 5-inch pie that is enough for two people to share.

Be sure to try their Old Fashioned Apple Pie. The soft and flaky golden crust goes perfectly with the warm spiced apple filling that has a tinge of sourness. How could one resist a warm traditional apple pie that is light and not too sweet?
While you enjoy your pie, you can watch the entire baking process in the open kitchen. Chefs with white caps and aprons tirelessly shape their pies’ crusts, arrange fruits and ice cakes as they chitchat amongst themselves like a big family.

With an extensive menu, ranging from its most popular sour cream apple walnut pie to the Mississippi mud pie that was featured on Food Network, Little Pie Company offers a diverse array of pies to satisfy customers. (It can even make you a Sugarless Apple Pie if you order 24 hours in advance).

As the festive holidays are coming up, Little Pie Company’s pies may be a good choice for you and your family.
