Dangerously Delicious Pies Looking Good
Even though they’ve only been open for a week or so, the word is out on this spot because the place was packed on Friday night. They are located at 1339 H St, NE (near the Star & Shamrock) and you can see their menus here. I’ve spoken to folks who say that the pies are phenomenal. Anyone check them out yet?
More photos after the jump.

I swear that every summer, outdoor movie line-up features the same films. I realize that...

It looks like the bedroom is only accessible through the bathroom. Weird.

Yes, the trash can get annoying. The worst part about it is that it's not only the kids...

Thanks for letting me know. Now I will stay far, far away from Jake's on weekends.
Two questions: Do they have meat pies? (Looks like all American-style pies, not British…) And why are they using disposable aluminum pie pans? That’s a lot of non-recylable pans.
Yes, they have meat pies. Their revolving menu is on their website. I like both the steak & gruyere.
Not recycleable? I thought aluminum was by far the most recyclable material out there.
It’s definitely recyclable, and for all we know, these pans could be made from recycled aluminum.
I was suspect about the high prices as well but the savory slices (7.50 including tax) are as filling as a Taylor Sub so Im a believer— I suppose the first people buying Starbucks balked at the price and now its the norm.
If you pay $28 for a pie, kill yourself by eating the pie on metro tracks somewhere on the red line.
Anyone know what the price range is per slice, as opposed to whole pie?
Oh no that blueberry pie looks watery and the top isn’t browned at all… not exactly mouth watering in my book… I will reserve full judgment until I eat it though…
I don’t think that’s blueberry. I could be wrong, but I think that’s the Marion Berry(sic) Pie, which is some kind of berry pie w/ rock candy on top (which is why I think the crust looks like that – it’s the rock candy).
That’s hilarious! I want to go, just to say I had a slice of Marion B[a]rry and finished it off with some rocks…
Haha I see. Well now I have to try that too.
Actually that’s the sour cherry pie. It was delicious.
$28 for a pie is way steep, and I guarantee my grandma’s is better.
Slices are between $6-$7.50. Kinda expensive, but the pie is amazing, the photos don’t do it justice. probably a good thing, the high price, otherwise we’d be a bunch of lard butts around H St.
Lard butts…I like it.
While it seems like a lot of money for a slice of savory pie, I have now gone two nights and been full from one slice both times.
IMHO, $7 for a darn tasty meal is not bad.
whenever you pay 28 dollars for an apple pie, an amish person laughs at your idiocy
I am trying to stay in shape and work on getting my abs. Showing me these good looking pies isn’t helping my cause and to keep my manly physique. LOL
I love french apple pie.
Correction:
I am trying to stay in shape and work on getting my abs tight.
I did it last week….baltimore bomb on the employees recommendation. I wasn’t that impressed and really wanted to be. Crust was good, maybe just the wrong flavor
That berry pie looks like a tutorial in how not to make pie… dry, under-browned crust with runny, watery filling. It looks like they’re either not putting enough flour/pectin/whatever in, or they’re serving them before they’re cool. Gross.
This Southerner has high standards for pie. I don’t think I’ll be dropping $28 for a watery mess there anytime soon.
The very best thickener for a fruit pie, sadly lacking here, is tapioca. The small kind of tapioca, not pearl tapioca (aka fish eyeballs). Good in bubble tea, not so much in pies.
A quarter cup in a 9″ cherry or blueberry pie is about right. Peach pie–maybe a heaping tablespoon. Same with strawberry-rhubarb.
Also the pie above seems to be lacking in vents in the top crust, especially around the perimeter.
PLEASE OPEN A STORE ALONG 14th/U STREETS, PLS PLS PLS. (Don’t worry, we’re all working on that city cap on eateries). Tried their pie this wknd, and just about fainted. It’s that good.
This opening is amazing. A month ago, I actually blogged about wanting hipster chefs to abandon cupcakes in favor of other dessert shops, even outlining why a pie shop specifically would appeal to their sensibilities. And now here it is! Wonderful.
