Called ahead for a Blue Ribbon Strusel Apple Pie, and when I got there, it is was freshly made and cooling on the rack. Dave made sure I knew to keep the lid off the box while it was still cooling. Truly cares about his pies and on top of everything, was one of the best Apple pies I've had! I would definitely recommend!!!

We walked in and ordered 2 pies: cherry and Key Lime. Dave made up a fresh batch of whipped cream from scratch. He entertained us with stories of the neighborhood and the pie business while he worked. We had strangers call out “you got dave’s pies!” excitedly as we walked our white boxed pies home
Both pies were excellent, real crowd pleaser. Highly recommend. 10/10 will buy more pies.
(Ignore my bad pie cutting)

Dave tells good stories, has great tasting pies, allows you to use his restroom at your own risk, there's no tissue and no paper towel to dry your hands. I will be back. His pies are better than any Perkins, Bakers Square, or Walmart pies I've had. Don't mind the prices either because after you've learned why, you'll keep coming back.

Accidentally wandered up when my dog smelled something that she liked. We've had great conversations a few times. Today I got a turkey melt, and a tripleberry pie slice. PHENOMENAL!!! Every experience we've had together has been pleasant. The food, amazing. The cranberry bread delicious and the real slices of fruit in the pie to die for.

My family asks us to bring DTPG banana cream for literally every holiday. It is hands down some of the best pie in Minnesota if not among the best in the country. Must try pies (we live a few blocks away so grab a slice to try when we can and get whole pies for holidays): banana cream, French silk, key lime, chocolate brownie.

Dave takes great care in his pie making and it shows. The pies are delicious and pack a lot of flavor. Dave is very kind and considerate of all the kids that come into his shop. We will be sure to be back!

i had lunch here, a nice cheap and yummy sandwich. he makes the pies fresh throughout the day so they are warm from the oven as you eat them… yum!
Outstanding French silk pie! Coconut cream was amazing also!

Can't recommend the pies here highly enough -- Dave knows what he's doing. I ordered two French silks a week in advance and when I came to pick them up he was literally in the middle of making the whipped cream to top them. They were divine! I also paid the $4/dish deposit on the glass they are given in, when you bring back those dishes he will refund your deposit or you can get a slice of pie! I went with getting a slice of pie when I brought them in and had the brownie ganache (SO GOOD)!
It really is just Dave in the shop, he brings in some seasonal help but does everything on his own for the rest of the year. Quality takes time, and small businesses have been hit hard by price increases. I think buying your pies from Dave is 100% worth it, he's also a really friendly person!
