The best bakery in the world. I would love to live here, I wouldn't even mind if an evil witch made my brother and I live in a house made of Lauretta Jean's desserts, even if it was only to fatten us up and spell our eventual demise. Their Victoria pie is my happy place, blueberry flavor. It would likely be my last words, "Blueberry Victoria Pie... Lauretta Jean's..." RIP with Victoria Pie on my tongue. If that isn't heaven what is? Oh yeah don't have single pic to share as I have inhaled both individual slices and whole pies when I have received them. I cannot imagine anyone who has the self control to wait on their dessert long enough to snap a pic. If you do props to you for your impulse control. I think my neural wiring snaps and I devour it in a single breath, not unlike my Australian Shepherd's behavior when he sees any morsel... Family diner kind of ambiance albeit I have only taken pieces or wholes to go. If anyone has been to NYC Two Little Red Hens, similar vibe and similar level of deliciousness, long lines, and quality desserts. read more

The crust isn't my favorite here. It's really hard and stiff. - raspberry rhubarb: so excited to see another place serve this combination. Extremely sad that this pie slice was so very bland. - strawberry shortcake: loved all the whipped cream. The pie crust was kind of weird with it. - chocolate peanut butter: not bad. Very rich. - smores: my favorite! I love the toasted marshmallow topping. The service was super friendly! The packaging was weird... just chocolate sticky smears all over the outside of the box... and not even a bag to at least stop from getting your car sticky from the mess. read more

The very best bake shop in Portland for pies, cakes and deserts! There is usually a line to get in but that's ok because you can stare at the rotating pie display in the window. They have a big selection of whole pies and cakes and pastries. You can also get slices. The chocolate silk pie is to die for, and worth every penny! The buttery pie crust pairs perfectly. This place is magical. read more

I'm typically not a pie person, but Lauretta Jean's completely changed my mind!! Every pie I've tried here has been so DELICIOUSSS and perfectly balanced without being overly sweet. You can really taste the quality in the buttery crusts . The key like pie especially deserves the hype! One thing I really love about this place is that they're always rotating seasonal and occasional flavors, so there's usually something new worth trying. The fruit pies taste fresh instead of sugary, and even the cream pies feel balanced and light. It's the kind of dessert spot where you end up thinking about your next slice before you've even finished the current one The shop itself is cozy but be prepared because it gets bust even in the evening. There's usually a line and seating can be limited, but honestly it makes sense considering how loved this place is. Definitely one of the best dessert spots in Portland. read more

Loved this cute town where I stumbled across this bakery and I saw people lining up to get a piece of pie and coffee. Of course me being curious I must be missing out stood in line and im glad I did. The desserts were delicious and my cappuccino was strong and I ate all three in two days lol by myself. I might have shared my chocolate ganache brownie, but not my pistachio creme puff and lemon cake. Service was fast and friendly and the place was cozy. Even with outdoor seating so you can experience this cute town. read more

Very cute little pie shop offering an array of classics and seasonal treats! I've only been here once, so I was only able to try a few things...basically I haven't even scratched the surface! You'll need to come on several occasions so you can get a taste of everything they have to offer. Service was friendly, desserts are great, and the restaurant itself was tidy. Downsides: The seating area is VERY limited, I would suggest ordering to go. This place would not be good for large groups. Also, this place can get busy, expect a line! read more

I seen this shop on my way home and looked it up. The reviews were great so I stopped by Sunday afternoon. I'm not sure if it was due to it being the end of the weekend but I was not that impressed with the coffee or my pastry. I ordered a cappuccino, cinnamon bun, a slice of blackberry streusel pie, and the broccoli cheese quiche. I asked for extra cream or sweetener in the cappuccino but they forgot or didn't add it. The cinnamon oatmeal bun was really dry and a little overcooked. The blackberry streusel pie was great, the broccoli cheese quiche was just okay. The restaurant itself is cute and personable. The guy taking my order was nice. The coffee took a long time and it was not that busy. I am planning to give them another try in the morning to see if the other pastries are fresh. I would definitely return for the pie! read more

My brother and I ordered slices of the banana cream pie and the cranberry key lime pie. The banana cream pie was a bit disappointing. I didn't like the pie crust, which I usually find to be the best part of pies. It was too hard. The banana cream part was good though. The cranberry key lime pie was unique to us! They used fresh cranberry, which was good. I didn't think the key lime taste was overly sweet or tart. The graham cracker crust was better than the crust they used for the banana cream. My brother did find a metal cardholder thingie inside his slice of pie, which we returned and they were very apologetic. read more

Went to celebrate my birthday and we'd heard/read amazing reviews so had high expectations. It was a rainy day so the interior felt extra warm and welcoming. I appreciated that they use real plates and cups instead of disposable ones. The downsides: 1. the line was long, for something that's premade. All they're doing is warming up some slices? Service was pretty much non-existent. We waited so long I thought they forgot our order. 2. The pie was underwhelming, we even got a second slice (waited in line AGAIN) to give them the benefit of the doubt. Slices are TINY for the price, and the crust was meh. The upsides: 1. There's a coffee refill station that's self serve, but they were so busy that no one refilled it once while we visited. 2. The interior is cute and cozy. I can see it being a nice date spot. Not too loud to have a conversation. Maybe we didn't order the right items? I would come back if someone else suggests it but maybe not on my own. read more

Okay went back and had some pie and cinnamon rolls. I love the cinnamon rolls and have a hard time not going every weekend to get one. Husband has loved every piece of pie he has tried. I tried the pumpkin pie and yes it is good quality but I still like mine more but personal preference so no stars off. Oh and almost forgot we recently got a piece of the chocolate cake. Wow! It was amazing and can't remember the price but less expensive than most places in town. Oh so dangerous so close to my house. read more

Such a nice pie shop. So many pies to choose from!!! My friends and I got 3 to split. In order from my most favorite is the lemon bar, banana cream pie, and apple pie. For the apple pie it was alright, I wish that they heated it up. The banana cream pie was amazing, it was fluffy and perfect. The lemon bar was AMAZING! I love a good lemon bar. The crust was the perfect texture and the lemon flavor wasn't overbearingly sweet. read more

I'm a huge sweets girl, so when I stumbled upon this highly rated pie spot, I was excited to try it. The line was long, everyone seemed happy, and the reviews were glowing, so my hopes were high. I grabbed a few pies to share with the group so we could try a bit of everything: key lime pie, cookie dough cake, a brownie-style pie, and a dark chocolate sea salt bar. I wish I could say I was impressed, but honestly, I was underwhelmed. The brownie pie was the only standout--it was sweet and moist. The key lime pie tasted mostly like whipped cream, the cookie dough cake was dry and a bit stale, and the chocolate bar was just okay. I'm sorry to all the Portland locals who love this place, but it didn't live up to the hype for me. P.S. These pictures make it look 10x better. I was probably just as excited as you at one point read more

Best bakery pie I've had in a while. Went here on a whim not realizing how popular it is, but absolutely worth waiting in line for. The French silk pie is heavenly, with a fluffy chocolate mousse in a crunchy, crumbly chocolate cookie crust. The fruit pies had a good balance of tartness from the fruit and sugar, and the pie crust is beautifully laminated, resulting in delicious flakiness. I would probably opt for a sweeter fruit such as the marionberry, as the pluot pie was a little on the tart side for my group's liking. Despite the line there was adequate seating, with a small diner feel to the inside. There was also some outdoor seating. Overall excellent pies with great seasonal options. I'm very glad I stopped here during my trip, and it's high on my re-visit list for the future! read more

Strolling around the Hawthorne area of Portland, we decided to give Lauretta Jean's a try. It was good timing because we were looking for a nice sweet treat before heading back to our Airbnb and we stumbled upon this place. We first read the menu on the wall before looking what they had left in stock and we were pretty interested in a slice of pie with a scoop of ice cream. With only a limited amount of pie options available at the time we walked in, we were down to pick one of the two flavors available and we opted for the Chocolate Chess and wanted a scoop of ice cream with it. The pie was a good amount of flavor without it being overwhelmingly intense with chocolate and very soft&smooth. The vanilla ice cream really balanced out the chocolate as well and was just an overall delicious pair! My group also ordered a few cookies which were closely delicious but we agreed we liked the pie very much more! I hope next time that I ever visit I'll get to try other pie flavors as well! read more

Pie galore in Portland! I was very impressed with the expansive amount of pies, cakes and pastries available. We ordered the cowgirl cookie, chocolate honeycomb pie and the triple chocolate cake. The cowgirl cookie had oats, cornflakes and blueberries, which intrigued me. I like honeycomb, so I had to try the chocolate honeycomb pie, which I found overly sweet. Hubby was happy with the triple chocolate cake, which was dense and a solid choice. After a couple of months, we went back a 2nd time and tried a couple of fruit pies and got chocolate ganache brownie. It was 90 degrees+, so we wanted to pick items that would travel well back to Seattle. I really enjoyed the flakey crust on the apricot tayberry pie. It held up well with all the fruit. Lauretta Jean's is on our rotation whenever we are near/in Portland! read more

I ordered a tgiving Heirloom apple pie from Lauretta Jean's. Their coveted pies were on the top of my must try list and tgiving seemed like the most opportune time since I'm not usually one to polish off a pie solo. Picked it up the morning of tgiving. It's served in a glass pie dish with the option to return the dish for I believe $5 back. I like the glass dish idea, however, I'd be hard pressed to drive back there for $5 and would rather have paid less for the pie, however I'll celebrate their sustainability by not using disposable aluminum pies. The pie itself was exceedingly pricey, but I shopped around and that seemed on par with pies purchased from dedicated bakers, rather than the Safeway special. The pie filling itself had a delicious apple flavor with nice warming spices, but the bottom was soggy. Boo! The dreaded soggy bottom. I mean it makes sense. That's a very wet filling, but the pie crust itself was rolled out very thin at the bottom and was really thick around the edges, which made for a super soggy bottom and raw dough around the edges. They've got alot going for them in terms of flavors, but that dough made the pie feel less than stellar and made it hard to justify the cost. Soo kind of disappointing, but feel like I should give it another go with a non fruit based pie. read more

Just go and get a slice, or 5, you won't be disappointed. Our slices made it home to LA and we enjoyed it with our family 3 days later lol

I'm not a huge fan of pies, but their strawberry short was probably one of the best pies I ever ate. It wasn't overly sweet, the strawberries were perfectly ripe with the right amount of custard, and the crust was oh so flaky. I'm so sad that I'm flying back home tomorrow afternoon and Lauretta's is closed on Tuesdays so I can't go back for one more slice of pie. I was also bummed that they were sold out of biscuits. Guess this is another reason to come back to Portland again! read more

This place is pretty well known in the Vancouver-portland area. I've had it bookmarked for almost three years. Lol I finally hit it up and I went a little crazy buying all sorts of goodies so that the fam, friends and I could try everything. Next time when we go, we will know our favorites. Next time I definitely want to try a couple cake options but when we went there was only one cake option towards the end of the day. Top picks:lemon bars, chocolate chip cookie, french silken pie and key lime pie. Mixed reviews- 1/3 of the fam liked the honey salt. The rest did not care for it. Kind of a weird texture similar to pumpkin pie with honey notes. If you love pumpkin pie, you'll probably love it as well. I don't have a big sweet tooth so I put my ganache brownie in the freezer to eat it later. I'll be honest, I feel like the key lime was great but not enough tart lime for me. The cream is delicious but ratio is off. I feel like it should at least be 1:1 on tart half and whipped half. The graham cracker crust was delicious but also thicccc. Almost too thick. French silken pie. Super rich and velvety. Choc chips in the chocolate Oreo type crust. I would order it again. I wish I had gotten a slice of cake. The butter cream from other yelp's pix look amazing. Next time I'll have to get it. Overall we went nuts and spent $75 on lots of different slices and such. When I was looking at the menu one whole pie is $75. I feel like even if I fall in love with a flavor I'd never pay $75 for a pie. But definitely would be back and willing to buy by the slices and such because we all got to be taste testers. Staff was patient and very chill. Love the vibe. There was a puppy in the patio seating too. Great to know I can bring my puppy next trip. read more

Visited this place on my last night of visiting Portland and I was so glad I did! It was such a cozy cafe in a very nice area with outdoor seating as well. The pie though-- Amazing! So yummy. I believe their pies are seasonal, and I tried their Cranberry Pie. Hands down the best pie I've ever had. Their hot matcha latte was also yummy and hit the spot on that cold November night. The service was fast and nice, very clean place. I would love to come back here if I get to visit Portland again. If it were closer to me, I'd be a regular . read more

Lauretta knows pies! Everything is so guud, everything. Service is sweet & polite and they take that extra mini second to focus on you despite the line out the door. Inside seating is a cozy homestyle nook. Do not mind the folks waiting standing next to you if you were lucky to sit at one of the few tables. Although the sidewalk picnic tables is the fav on a sunny day. The bakery goods ~ the perfect amount of sweetness not overwhelming the fruit or other flavors. Buttery, not oily. Fresh because folks sell them out all the time. A sweet pie in the Portland sky! read more

Food 4/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 I've passed by this pie shop for years but finally decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did! There's usually a line, but it moves pretty quickly. The inside has such a warm, inviting vibe and the staff were super friendly. I got the banana pudding pie and really liked it, the whipped cream on top was so soft and airy. My friend got the rhubarb streusel, which wasn't really my thing so I didn't really like it but that's just personal taste, not a knock on the pie itself. Overall, I'd definitely come back, especially since I'm often in the area for Salt & Straw it's just a short walk across the street! read more

Wowowow this pie was delicious. My friend and I came by ~30 minutes after they opened and there was a small line out the door. Line went by relatively quickly and we ordered at the counter, got a number, and took one of the outdoor seats. The interior is pretty small, gave off cozy vibes. And it smelled so. good. We ordered a slice of the coconut cream pie and the raspberry rhubarb pie. Raspberry rhubarb was on the tart side, but I enjoyed it. Adding some whip cream on top definitely helped balance out the sourness. The crust is the best part, I've never had such a thick flaky pie crust. The coconut cream pie was also super yummy. The cream was sweet and had bits of coconut shavings inside. Again. The crust is killer Overall, super cute! I definitely need to come back and try the rest of the pies!! read more

Was there once a time where Pie ruled the desert world? When people talk about the good ole days, the only thing I envision is more pie and less electricity. I'm cool with the more pie aspect of the past. Lauretta Jean's puts pie in your face in every flavor you could imagine. This is my new favorite thing. I had pb and chocolate, salted honey and rhubarb. All were just dynamite. The salted honey was so unique. I mean honestly I almost had a panic attack trying to decide what pie I wanted. I'll certainly be back until I try them all. This place is legendary and for good reason. Limit yourself to once per week please. Let's help keep the lines shorter! (4.9 Stars) read more

I'm on vacation staying down the street and we have had pie from here now three nights in a cow, is that bad? Perfection takes on different forms for different types of places but IDK how you'd make a pie shop more perfect than Lauretta Jean's. The staff is fast yet friendly. The shop is cute, just a little too small and crowded, which is perfect, right? And the crowd is fun -part of the fun imho is standing in line and meeting people and seeing why they have a particular slice in mind :) And the pie? Well I have a theory: if instead of choosing a flavor, you just got to the front of the line and they handed you a slice of some pie, 98% of customers would be just as happy with whichever slice they got. read more
