Gardner Pie: Reviews & Ratings
Delicious pies and extra delicious cheesecake. Was a little confusing how to get in but otherwise an awesome experience.
Absolutely amazing pies, well worth the drive !! We have purchased the pies several times through fundraisers. We were greeted when we walked I. Service was very exceptional!!
Local favorite! We were in town from Tennessee and had to stop by our favorite pie place. Actually went twice. Once to get pies for a party. They were very popular. Had to stop again on our way out of town. Bought 8 pies to take home. They freeze very well. Can't make a pecan pie for the price they charge. Super service. Always friendly and fast. Strawberry rhubarb is my favorite.
I buy pies from gardeners directly and have never ever been disappointed The price selection and service is always great
I strongly recommend this pie shop. You can't not make one for yourself as low cost as you can buy it. This pie shop can make 50,000 pies a day and ship around the world.. fresh, frozen,or cream pies
We have been getting pies here for years. They never disappoint. I'm pretty picky when it comes to crusts, theirs is some of the best.
Was leary of mass produced pie, but oh, it was soooo good! Do not hesitate to pick up a few. Extremely fair price too!
Absolutely delicious pies. All they had left was sugar free peach and everyone loved it. This will be my new pie go to place.
One of my coworkers gives us a Gardner pie every year for Christmas. Hands down the best pie available in northeast Ohio! Today we had the apple Brown Betty which is awesome! We've been enjoying these for years and have never been disappointed.
What are Americans' favorite pies? Apple takes, ah, the cake I believe, beyond that all pies are created equal unless it's a chocolate pie because that's my favorite late night pie hmmm that's unless it's a holiday then it could be pumpkin in the No. 2 spot, while cherry places third, unless my mom brought over a pecan pie of course. One of the most common questions asked after opening the refrigerator is "What kind of person eats the last piece of pie" - well I have to admit I am that kind of person and I've never had any regret or remorse, but I do counter that with what kind of person would leave the last piece of pie - in my opinion a single slice of pie should never be saved for later. Well if you live anywhere in the vicinity of a "pie factory" those are issues that you should never have to deal with. Ok first of all I don't know anyone who has ever told me "I grew up next door to a pie factory" that would just seem too unbelievable, after coming here now I know for a fact there are people who live next door to a pie factory and who are within walking distance to fresh pies 24/7, now wait a minute I understand the public can't access pies here around the clock but certainly if I lived next door I would know someone who works here and hopefully they could hook me up after hours if I had a pie emergency. Any description one conjures up here doesn't do this place justice, when I walked in the door I saw fresh baked pies everywhere and if it wasn't a pie it was something that has something to do with pies. The two young ladies working the retail store in front of this production facility must have been hand picked out of scores of applications because the customer service here is amazing, although I'd rather be shoveling pies in the back than dealing with the lines of people upfront especially when the last of their favorite pie is sold out just before they make it to the counter to place their order. I am sure it's possible for this place to run out of some types of pies but it's highly unlikely with that being said that the person would walk out without a different kind because everyone has a second favorite pie and probably a third and fourth favorite as well. I will tell you there is a lot of pressure to make a decision when it's your turn, so read the menu board ahead of time and be prepared. I started with an apple then added two strawberry / rhubarb and decided to get a cherry and since it is only a few miles from the office I figured I could come back if necessary. They also have creme pies, frozen pies, and even savory pies I'm sure they have something you will like as well, they may even have Boston Creme Pie although that's really cake isn't it....
