The only reason I don't want to rate this 5 stars is because I cannot have them selling out if my favorite pie before I get some! Literally a must stop every time we have guests in Omaha. Staff are amazingly friendly. The shop is small but adorable! read more

This Cuban hand pie is one of the best things I ate all month! It was so perfectly flavored and flaky. The texture was spot on with the pork and the mustard. 10 out of 10 would come back and recommend this specific pie. That being said, I've never had anything bad from Carter and rye! read more

Fantastic First Friday with Dundee Bank! I have always seen their hand pies at the farmers market and have tried their sweet ones but this is my first time at the shop AND trying a savory pie. It was definitely worth it! It had the perfect amount of filling and the exact right amount of flaky buttery crust - perfect harmony. The flavors were delicious, I need the recipe for whatever seasonings they had in there because they really brought it all together. There was a bit of a line but it moved pretty quick. The staff were so nice and were definitely hustling. The shop is so cute and has a ton of related little food/merch for sale - including an adorable $1 mini prints from the Omaha area (I will be getting one next time I visit)! read more

This is one of our favorite weekend traditions-- Carter & Rye has a rotating menu of hot and frozen hand pies, check out their instagram for the weekend line up! It's a tiny little shop, with joyful service. You can expect a wait at times for either a line out the door, or for them to heat up a hand pie fresh for you. read more

Delicious filling and buttery flaky hand pie casing? What more could you want?! Carter and Rye is a fantastic locale to stop in on the weekend for a sweet or savory hand pie, with options for frozen ones to go to tide you over during the week while they're closed. Most recently I tried their spicy mango filling as well as their truffle Brie, both of which were absolutely delicious. I love supporting this local, women owned business! read more

I have not met a Cater & Rye hand pie that I haven't liked! Getting both a savory and sweet option is a must. The brown sugar cinnamon has been one of my favorites and my favorite savory ones are usually breakfast themed like eggs and sausage. I usually get them from their booth at the farmers markets but occasionally make my way to their cute little store front. It's usually a short encounter but everyone I've ordered from have been polite and friendly. If you don't live close to midtown, still make the trip and take your hand pies over to the Bull Moose for a drink. read more

I haven't had many hand pies, but I heard good things about this place and I'm always curious to try new foods. The lady that helped us was sweet and welcoming. We ordered a bourbon peach and pulled pork hand pie. They were both incredible. The crust on both were flakey and baked perfectly. The bourbon peach was delicious, as was the savory pulled pork option. I'm so happy we tried these! I hope to visit again and get another bite soon! read more

If I could give this sweet, friendly place a 10 I would. Such a delight‼ happy faces greet you with a friendly hello. Picked what I wanted and off I went with 2 hand pies and a coffee. Not only was the hand pie both warm, they both where crispy delights. The savory one I couldn't put down. As every bite was just darn delicious, and the sweeter one was just as wonderful, and a regular cup of Joe was the right touch. I'll see you next weekend to see what flavors are next read more

You can dip it, you can lick it, you might definitely want to kiss it... I'm a freaky fan of Carter & Rye and I highly suggest you give it a try. Most recently I had the Honey Lavender Blueberry, Salted Nut Roll, Caprese Pizza Pie, and Sausage Gravy haystack, but keep in mind that the selection changes weekly. We've had Greek hand pies, cherry almond, and many more. All have been Tasty with a capital T. They're always busy do be prepared to wait a few, but so worth it and the staff is friendly and on top of getting you in and out quickly. The plants in the front window are a nice homey touch making you feel welcome. Pricing wise, it's less than a full breakfast, but just as filling. Couple hints: They come hot and frozen, get done of each. When cooking the frozen at home, I'm finding it's more like 13-15 minutes @425. read more

I haven't left a yelp review in ages, but I HAD TO when we tried these! Please visit, these are incredible. We stopped by this morning around 10, and the shop had plenty of hand pies so we ordered one of each! Flavors change weekly, so keep an eye out for menu changes on their instagram. We got spanikopita, ham and cheese, coconut cake, and carrot cake. Flavors were all SPOT ON, and we're fresh off a trip to Greece so that's really saying something on the spanikopita. They had some condiments available, and you can also buy frozen to reheat later. Staff was so friendly, and the shop was so cute. I'll absolutely recommend to our friends and family! read more

It's a convenient way to enjoy dessert! Or it's also a fabulous breakfast treat! The flakiest hand pies ever! My hand pie is a raspberry cream cheese wrapped in layers of flakey pastry and baked to perfection - a golden brown and topped with the perfect amount of sugar! I have also had the brown sugar, also delicious! They also have savory hand pies too! Delicious! read more

Have been here several times now and still love the product-- homemade pop tarts. Small menu, but tastes great. Today they had two sweet and two savory. The sweets were brown sugar cinnamon (my fav) and blueberry which got a delicious compliment from a gentleman who was just leaving. The savory flavors were bacon, egg and cheese or a local mushroom polenta. I picked the bacon, thank-you, hot and delicious. I'm not a fan of their coffee but they do have other drinks including hot chocolate. Carter And Rye continues to be a solid addition to the neighborhood. read more

What a unique little hot pie shop in midtown! The place is small and plants adorn the front window. Walking in, the fresh smell of pastries meets you immediately. Almost as a immediate was a smile and hello from behind the counter. Service at Carter and Rye was friendly and swift. The selections today were: Bourbon pecan, Raspberry for the pastries and Chicken Pot Pie or Spinach artichoke for the more hearty pies. I ended up getting a raspberry pie and a chicken one for lunch! The pastry on both was light and flaky; wonderful and delicious. I also ordered coffee which was flavorful, Ethiopian blend. I had some oat milk added to it too. The sign on the front window said open 8 am until sold out. As we were leaving (at 8:20 am), there was a line forming out in front of the place. They may be sold out pretty early today! read more

This sweet little hand pie shop is an amazing woman owned business and is full of amazing smells, awesome people (Hi, Kate and Missy ) and great conversations. These gals are a joy and you can tell they are passionate about their hand pies and love what they do! I just want to say these are the best hand pies I have ever eaten! You can tell they are made with love! They use very high quality butter. (You will have to ask them about the butter) and they also use amazing ingredients and local ingredients when they can. There are usually 4 different flavors every week (2 sweet and 2 savory) and they come up with the most exciting and yummy flavor combinations. I love that they will warm the pies up for you, if you prefer or you can have it to go and warm it when you get home. (Ask for instructions) You can also get a big batch of frozen hand pies to go, so you can have a backup supply if you can't make it in the next week. They also partner with a local coffee place and also have fresh juice. My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed talking with Kate and Missy. They make you feel like you belong right there in their cute little shop, in their cute little neighborhood! read more

This cute little shop has been on my bucket list for an in person visit and I finally made it there. They are only open limited hours Fri-Sun, glad I made it before closing on a Friday when it's less busy. Weekly menu is usually posted on FB by Thursday and varies with the season. They sell hot and fresh (ready to go!) or frozen with baking instructions for later in the week. Hand pies keep for several weeks in the freezer. There's parking on the side of the small building and a few picnic tables out back if you want to eat outdoors when the weather is nice. I ordered 4 of the frozen mushroom brie to eat for lunch or dinners this week, 2 of the French onion hash, and 2 classic apple pie. I was disappointed to discover when I got home that I didn't receive the apple pie but at least I don't think I was charged for them. The friendly staff person may not have heard me or confirmed my order when another customer came in. The savory French onion hash was delicious but I was tasting those onions all day! Not a good option while on a date!! ;-) read more

Cute little shop down on 36th and Center Street. It's really exactly what they say... Pie crust and filling. Was curious if the crust was more towards a toaster strudel flaky type or a piecrust. Definitely more like a piecrust with sugar sprinkled on top. Tried the cinnamon and sugar and also the strawberry rhubarb. Both were tasty! They are only open two days a week so I was glad I remembered this happen to be one of the days! Don't expect a ton of filling inside the pockets but just the right amount to make it to tasty. read more

I give these two women full credit for creating a remarkable enterprise. No one else in Omaha is making hand pies. They own the space, so to speak. They change the menu every week. Very creative. Hand pies and coffee is all they do. Focus. They aren't open 6 or 7 days per week. Just open during prime weekend morning hours. I'm guessing the owners have other jobs so this is a side hustle. I love the creative and entrepreneurial aspect of this business. And the food is great! Congrats to the owners. You are the spirit of America. I usually complain about prices, but after paying $2.40 for a cheeseburger at McDonald's, the product is fairly priced. read more

If you've had these hot pies at the farmers market, well now you can get these through out the week as well! This cute little shop, with friendly owners, serves hand pies, kind of like fresh toaster strudels, in both sweet and savory flavors. They sell out fast so options are limited later in the mornings. When we went there were brown sugar and chicken pot pie left - both were great in taste and texture!Best as a grab-n-go since there is no indoor sitting area read more

Carter & Rye is a great addition to midtown. Located on Center Street between Hanscom Park and Field Club, they offer a variety of both sweet and savory hand pies as well as coffee and other drinks. If you've never had a hand pie, it's a cross between a slice of pie and fresh baked pop tart. So far, I've only had the sweet ones and found all of them (rasperry, apple, and cinnamon brown sugar) to be delicious.They also offer coffee and other beverages. I can't wait to go back for more! read more

I live just a few blocks away and this was my barbershop when I was a kid. I have never been able to stop in but this Saturday it worked out. I am not going to lie - it looks nothing like my childhood barbershop and was very small but cute. I honestly was disappointed - there were only four choices and honestly none of then were what I was looking for, I was hungry for a basic breakfast option. These options are unique - they were intriguing and I got one of the sweet options - chocolate cherry. While this is probably not a place I will frequent - I do have to say it was one of most amazing pockets? that I have very eaten. The pastry surrounding the cherry chocolate center was the highlight - so good. read more

These hand pies are delicious. This morning we stopped by for a hand pie and coffee. I had the brown sugar cinnamon hand pie. It was warmed to perfection, flaky, buttery. I highly recommend stopping in to give Carter & Rye a try and supporting this small business! I can't wait to try the other flavors. They are only open on the weekends but well worth the wait. read more

Not the best picture but so delicious! I've been wanting to try these hand pies for a while and finally got to at the Farmers Market! The filling was great with the right amount of peppers and onions (I don't like it when there's an excessive amount)! And the dough thats what makes these things special. It was perfectly flaky and buttery, some crispness and some softer doughiness! Big thumbs up! read more

I almost missed the place, but found parking on the side of the building. They service was great, staff (owners?) were friendly. It's an take out place since it's small.The hand pies I got were cinnamon and ham, cheese, onion and pepper. They are very tasty, I just wish they were bigger....lol. The crust was nice and buttery, light and flaky; the fillings were generous and equally good. They do freeze well. I just hope they get some kind of signage that is easier to see. Give them a try. read more

Awesome hand pies great on the go or warmed up later. Cute little space and good coffee.

I try to go to a new place every time I visit Omaha and I saw a blog review of Carter & Rye and figured I would check it out. We tried one of the savory pies (caramelized potato and onion, the other savory pie was already sold out at 11am) and a sweet (Peach). OH. MY. GOSH. So good!! The crust was flaky and the fillings were flavorful. We also got some frozen hand pies to share with family that didn't come with us and half of them pies were eaten within 30 minutes of bringing them home! And the service... oh the service! It was wonderful! You could tell the excitement for the product and the appreciation for their customers. This is a must go to place in Omaha!! read more

I search out their menu drop every week on Facebook, even when I'm not in town! I'm just that curious about what savory and sweet items will be the hand pie this week!

Everyone associated with this operation is so kind and appreciate your business. I highly recommended hitting this place up! read more
