Crave Pie Studio

Run by a self-proclaimed PiEvangelist, this metro Atlanta shop is all about seasonal, locally sourced ingredients: strawberries and rhubarb in spring, peaches and berries in summer, pumpkin and apples in the fall. Their signature Georgia pecan pies are available year-round, fortunately, in maple or chocolate bourbon.

Sway

The downtown Hyatt Regency’s Sway serves up a nightly all-you-can-pie buffet. Their pastry chef makes at least five full-size pies, three mini pies and assorted pie-in-a-glass parfaits like s’mores and mango yuzu. It even comes with ice cream, delicately flavoured with honey from the hotel’s rooftop hives.

Mary Mac's Tea Room

Beloved by locals since 1945, this no-frills, down-home Atlanta eatery shares generously portioned pies for dessert, plus a savoury, just as decadent cheese-filled tomato pie side.

Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop

Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop

This is pie in its purest form. Their namesake Buttermilk Pie is a Southern classic, a recipe passed down from the owners’ grandmothers, delivering a creamy, intensely sweet experience every time.

Panbury’s

Created by three South African expats, Panbury’s handheld pastries vary from traditional (steak and stout) to offbeat (Cajun gumbo). Go in November for the Thanksgiving pie stuffed with turkey, cornbread, gravy and cranberry sauce for dipping.
