I have only tried the Apple Pies and Apple turnovers. The turnover was very good. The pastry was soft and the filling was cooked just right. I also enjoyed the Apple pie but I do think that they should put a little more apple into it but it doesn't stop me from buying and eating it. The Apple pie was my 13 year old sons pick for his birthday dessert! They have a big selection of different pies.. Berry, Coconut cream, Pecan, Bannana Crean..and more. Update after eating another piece.. I think it has enough filling. The crust really rises so i was thinking more filling would be good but more may be to much read more

I felt like munching on a pie a few minutes ago. I picked out a small boysenberry pie. I asked for a glass of milk to accompany it. The counter person boxed the pie and rang up 17.50. I shock my head and laughed out, "17.50?" She quickly replied, "It''s 30 dollars for the big size!" As if that justifies the small pie's price. I took it to my truck and it was a watery goo of berries and liquid. The pie crust was a good inch above the filling. It was a muck and I know it was made a few hour prior but come on, 15.95 for muck? They've been in this location for years but that doesn't make them good. Save your money. read more

I heard great things about this place and finally visited. I bought an apple pie that looked huge and caught the attention of all my friends. Then we sliced it open and discovered it was mostly air. It was a disappointing result for a pie that cost about $30. Did I just get the one bad pie in the bunch? If this is normal, I probably won't return. This just wasn't worth $30. read more

Finally stopped by. Got a blueberry and a peach individual pie. Both were just ok. Wish that they tasted a little fresher and not so sugary fake but the crust was nice. Would be willing to try again. read more

The best pie I have had in a long time. It's down home, authentic, homemade, and down right delicious. If you are in the area it's a must! Support local! You will not be disappointed. read more

We were in the area so stopped by to pick up some fruit pie. We bought one small peach pie (about $17), and I was intrigued by the chocolate cream pies so bought a slice (about $7). I did think it was a little pricey for the whole pies, but knowing that food costs have gone up everywhere, it seemed reasonable. Echoing other reviewers -- when we got home and sliced into the peach pie, the filling barely covered the bottom crust! There was a large gap of air between the fruit and top crust. The flavor of the peach filling was very good. The crust was decent but not amazing - maybe a little undercooked or lacking buttery flavor. I thought the chocolate cream pie was very good. The staff person at the counter who helped us was perfectly nice. I would give Mom's Apple Pies 3.5 stars. They have a great selection of fruit pies, but it would be better if there was a wider selection by the slice. We would have liked to try two or three of the fruit flavors, but I'm glad we did not buy that many small pies! read more

Pie Heaven, deeply recommend the pumpkin pie, so far best pies we've ever tasted, (and i am a pastry chef in the Valley, so really best pies)!!! Visit the little garden in the back and enjoy the view! So amazing place I've never thought it can exist! The best of the best! read more

with everyone complaining about the price, I just had to come and write a review after trying them today with my dad. Yes they're expensive, but you're paying for quality. These are REAL organic pies and the turnovers are AMAZING. If you're going to get one thing and you don't wanna spend a bunch, get the turnovers. very good food and great customer service!! read more

Mom's Apple Pie - Bakeries Near Me - Sebastopol, California

Hubby, dogs and I drove to Bodega for lunch. Since out ther, and it's been a minute thought about Moms Apple Pie. As we were headed home, our car ended up in the parking lot Of Moms Apple Pie Cafe. Looked at all the pies with drool going down chin, picked out a beautiful pie. The boxed it. When the clerk said $35.95, I was on the shocked side. I thought it was a miss ring. Nope. Looked at the prices on the wall, all the 10" pies are $35.95. I paid for it with hesitation. When I got back into the car, I asked hubby the price of said pie. When he said, " 19.99", I just bit my lip. He asked how much, I told him. He said "It better be a f$&@ piece of pie". After getting home, (had to stop by store to get vanilla ice cream. How can you not have that with pie)? Cut a piece of pie, heated it and scooped up some vanilla ice cream and place it on top of that heated up pie. Before slicing into it, the crust had a nice top to it. When I cut into it, the filling was ok. Not as thick I thought it would be considering how puffed up the crust was. Scooped up some ice cream with a generous scoop of pie and placed it my mouth were I was hoping my taste buds would be jumping for joy as the pie was $35.95. The pie was ok. Crust a little bland and the filling was good. Was expecting the crust to melt in my mouth for that price. Anyways, pie was ok to good. Long story short, sticker price was shocking to say the least. But for the price I paid, was not worth the drive to Sebastopol for a $35.95 pie. read more

This is the best to go for some of the best apple turnovers! It's definitely worth the drive through Sebastopol for their pastries! Their turnovers are the perfect amount of sweetness and they are perfectly flaky. I had their pumpkin pie during the holiday and it tasted like heaven! I just couldn't stop eating. They are located a bit remote, but it is such a scenic drive and their patio area is so beautiful. Definitely recommend coming here! read more

This is a great pie shop! They have a selection of various pies in two sizes (Medium (really a small size) and Large). We got the medium Apple Pie ($12.95) and the medium Rhubarb Pie ($11.95). We ate them over the next two days, at picnics. They were very good. It was great to find a pure Rhubarb pie. read more

The cutest mom and pop shop with fresh baked pies. This spot is quality. They've even got the option of zero added sugar since they can replace it with apple sauce! We had wanted to try their pumpkin pie, but it was sold out! Goes to show how delicious it is! The apple pie was what we ended up with and it was fantastic. Flakey crust and whole applie slices! Not too sweet and a perfect addition to any diet. read more

What a shame -- to make so many pies so badly. My wife and I stopped by Pascaline's yesterday to pick up some yummy pastries and on a whim dropped into Mom's Apple Pie. On impulse, we spent a bundle (more than $50) on four smaller sized pies: Apple, Blueberry, Cherry, and Pecan. We got them home and discovered: Crusts were not soggy, but were all hard, not flaky. Huge dome on the apple pie concealed not much filling, and apples cooked to mush. Blueberry filling was, again, small quantity, and had that funny sweet blueberry taste of I-Hop blueberry syrup. Cherry pie filling was good, tart, but again, just about one cherry deep in the crust. :( The Pecan pie was pretty good, despite the crust fail. I have no idea about the cream pies -- who knows, maybe these are wonderful. But all those fruit pies -- what a shame. If these guys could find someone to teach them to make better crusts and improve their fillings, they could be doing a land-office business. read more

My daughter and I stopped and got three 6" pies on a whim while running around West County. Banana cream, chocolate cream and pecan. The cream pies were heavily gelatinous: like you could slice a piece, wiggle it vigorously and the piece of pie didn't fall apart! Like nearly the consistency of a gummy bear. We both decided to throw them in the trash. We were glad we still had the pecan one. Pecan pie is pretty hard to mess up (or so I thought). This one had an overwhelming flavor of cinnamon, like Torani syrup cinnamon. Third one went in trash too. Out $50. Total burn. It is unbelievable that pies are their business, honestly. I am not one to throw away pie, they really were THAT bad :( read more

Mom's Apple Pie has all the intangibles for people to love this place: - Located on a country road at a nice old fashion town of Sebastopol. - A wall with pictures of 'Betty' (the Mom) - The 'old-fashioned' building - Nothing looks commercialized - A name like 'Mom's Apple Pie' The problem is, their apple pie isn't that great. Oooops, I've said it. Yes, saying anything bad about this place feels like if I am urinating on a statue of O-Jizo-sama (figure in Japanese Buddhist mythology), but I must speak the true feelings in Yelp. Those that would like to argue with me, please eat an apple pie or apple cake at Crixa in Berkeley (http://www.yelp.com/biz/TS07BQsyZqwcEgraAbiMbw). Make sure you ask for whipped cream on the side. After a bite of Crixa, you'll find Mom's apple pie to taste amateurish. I'll even go further to say Mission Pie (http://www.yelp.com/biz/YV9PYdUD0O4sLDz1DUk0Gw), which is made by high school kids, is better than Mom's. Sorry. My heart gives Mom's Apple Pie Five Stars, But my tongue tells me it is Two Stars. read more

I bought a small size apple pie for $17.50 on Saturday, October 29th and found multiple pieces of plastic in my pie. Pretty disappointed since I'm in town visiting. Friends recommended but fail on expectation. Plastic? Eating plastic isn't a thing for me. Will you try plastic filled in your $17.50 apple pie?? read more

Delicious pies, I have been buying pies from Mon's Apple pies for years but could never understand why they have always been so expensive ( $30.00 for a medium size blackberry pie) now a days I have to re- think my spending considering gas is also very expensive! These days I will stop by occasionally only on special occasions, I have to say though frozen coconut cream pies from the super market are just as good and alot cheaper to buy! read more

Easy to spot off the 116---- Many different fruit pies available, & some cream ones as well. Small little frozen ones for sale, as well as frozen slices. $4.50 made us happy with a small blackberry pie. Crust isn't buttery or flaky enough for my druthers, and the rhubarb slice purchased was okay. But handy to get some of that Sonoma valley fruit in pie form without having to bake them! read more

I come here for the turnovers! I've had a few of their pies through out the years buying them at their location or when they have booths at the markets. Pies are good but I'm the type that prefers crumble topped pies so typically I don't buy pies from this establishment. Now, I will drive all the way out here for their turnovers. My favorite is the blackberry. The turnover is flaky, buttery, and has the right amount of sugar coating crunch. And the filling is wonderful. Their location has plenty of parking and has a little beautiful and relaxing outdoor seating area with a nice water fountain. Plus it's beautiful out here on a sunny day. read more

Solid pies! I stopped by with my brother and cousin and ordered a slice each of apple and pumpkin pie ($3 a slice). Definitely some really solid flavors, and the crust was delightfully flaky but firm, just the way I like it! The lady working the counter was also friendly. They offer a multitude of different pies, and in different sizes too. One thing: I got a cup of water from their dispenser, and it had a pretty noticeable, gross sulfur smell to it (almost like... sewage). I took a sip before catching the smell and didn't get sick, but they should probably do something about that. I would take off a star for this, but am feeling nice today. read more

If I had the opportunity, I would give this place NEGATIVE stars! We had a special occasion and wanted a Lemon Meringue pie. For our first (and LAST) visit to Mom's we drove 60 miles round trip to purchase a pie. Here are the issues: 1. We paid $35 + Tax for a 9" pie. 2. The crust under the filling was soggy. 3. Little to no flavor in the crust. 4. Too much gelatin in the filling. 5. We (the 6 of us) could barely taste the lemon. 6. The meringue disappeared! One of the pieces we cut had NO meringue because it literally disappeared before we could get it out of the pie pan. We threw the remaining pie, + the uneaten pieces, away! Don't waste you time, money and gas on going to Mom's! P.S. I was telling this story to a friend and she reminded me that she had warned us about her experience at Mom's, which we had forgotten. We won't forget again! read more

This place used to be somewhere I could run on my lunch break to grab a delicious sandwich in less than 15 minutes. The pies are still delicious, but the deli is now being run by teenagers who apparently can't make a sandwich. A word to the wise, Mom: fire these incompetent kids before they destroy your business. A couple of months ago, I ordered 2 sandwiches with add-ons of avocado, bacon, and basil aioli. I called the order in, and picked it up 20 mins later only to find I had been charged almost $30 for sandwiches without bacon or avocado. I called and let them know. They said "sorry." Today, I decided to give them another chance. I called the order in and ordered the same sandwich, but asked if they could please make sure that the extras got on the sandwich since I was charged for them last time and they were missing. I even reminded the deli kid AGAIN at checkout, and she said they were definitely on the sandwich. I waited 20 minutes for a sloppy, soaking with mayo, unappetizing mess that was still somehow MISSING BACON. WTF. The bacon was the only item that warranted waiting 20 minutes, and it was missing. Pathetic. And they didn't even try to rectify the last failed order by giving me something at a discount? Instead they messed up my order again and charged me extra again! You have lost my business, Mom. But I liked your place enough before to take the time to write my first ever Yelp review. So listen up, or you will be losing more than just my hard-earned bucks. read more

This pie shop did not live up to the hype! Their apple pies are very impressive looking, with their tall domed tops, but they taste Safeway-tier. Don't be fooled by looks, most of the height of these pies is just a huge air pocket. There's only a shallow layer of actual filling. The apple filling (local Gravenstein apples, supposedly famous) tasted mushy and totally ordinary to me. Didn't try the cream pies, maybe those are better but I doubt it. read more

Sorry, I wish I could like this. Second time ordering apple pie and it is freakishly mediocre for $35 pie. Like others have said, there is a giant, tasteless dome of dough that looks like it would hold a treasure of apples, but alas it is all air. There could have been a recovery if the dough had taste or the apples were flavorful but this is just a completely bland pie. I can't even get my kid to eat it and he would eat broccoli before this. I'm so sorry, I don't want to pan a local place, but the apple pie is so, so mid for the price. read more

All three pies (peach, blackberry and apple) were disappointing. The fillings were good, but the crusts were not good at all. I and two others who have baking experience all thought the crusts were unsatisfactory...Dense and no flavor. Where's the flakiness? And $95 for three average sized pies? Plus, the apple pies had this tall, dome crust which one would think was full of apple, but no...All air. This is misleading if not downright deceitful. read more

We are very disappointed and wish I read these yelp reviews before i ordered 3 pies ($97.00) for a dinner party. I was so embarrassed to serve these pies to our friends. First the crust on all three pies were tasteless and the bottom crust on the mixed berry and peach pie were only half baked...very soggy and wasn't due to the fruit it clearly wasn't baked enough. The coconut cream bottom was baked through but the filling was so gelatinous it was barely edible. Again wish I'd read the reviews because this was mentioned by more than one. It's too bad because we live only a few miles away and have purchased many pies. No more. read more

Mom contacted me about my bad experience with her pies. She informed me that it was due to their being vegan and that I should have been instructed to slice them (especially the raspberry) 24 hrs In advance so they could set up because she uses no gelatin. She graciously refunded me my money. It's great she has vegan pies. I recommended that she should advertise that and the special instructions. read more

Cute place with very average tasting pies. Bought the Apple. Like the reviewers below, was surprised to discover there is not a heap of apples under the pie dome, just a giant air pocket. My husband likened the pie to being as good as a grocery store pie, nothing better. read more

Mom's Apple Turnovers = Comfort Food... In my continuing search for a the "best" Apple Turnover (and it truly is an artform when making these), I have found Mom's to be very consistent in her crafting of this delicious treat. Flaky and crunchy, fresh, sweet and delicious apple filling, and those crunchy chewy triangle tips.....it is a real treat to stop by Mom's to enjoy these. This is also a reliable place to get delicious pies for holidays, special days, or just about for any day. And who doesn't love a big fresh pie? Her Apple Pie is pretty amazing, with that crust like Aunt Bea from Mayberry used to make. It is worth the trip to get out to Mom's, but be careful, while zooming down Hwy 116 if you blink you might miss it. Between Sebastopol and Forestville, right in the heart of the Russian River Appellation. For best results, set your auto GPS for her address, and let the navigator do the work. Also, a wonderful spot for a break during your next Russian River wine tasting adventure. Love ya Mom! MA read more

Sometimes location is everything... There is absolutely nothing fancy about the sandwiches they make, but it's good enough to eat while you are wine tasting or to soak up the wine you've already tasted. Since there isn't much in this area, this is the one place many visitors or drive-buyer's will stop to grab a bite to eat. However, they did have a plethora of pies, none of which we tried...so I can't provide details in those regards. I was a little surprised that they take credit cards. Just by appearance, I could totally imagine them being a cash only establishment. Their menu doesn't stretch too far, but has your basic sandwich offerings. Sadly, they were out of meatloaf when I went to order, so I stuck with a tried and true turkey sando! Go for the satiety, not the flavor.. read more

I do love pie. I do like Mom's pies of various fruits and flavors. I have tasted them all. But they are not perfect. The crust can be a little on the gummy side. But there's a hack. Place the pie in a warm oven (250 degrees). I cook mine around 25 minutes. Allow the crust to dry out and crisp up a bit more. Eat warm or allow to cool again. Don't forget the 3 Twins vanilla ice cream. Or the Clover dairy cheddar cheese on top of the apple pie. read more

Great pies! Lots of flavors--we tried the pumpkin and chocolate cream. Both were very good. They have a wide selection and it was hard picking just a few to take with us on the road. The chocolate cream was made with a great bittersweet cocoa, nothing like those gloppy Jello kinds you get at a grocery store or chain restaurant. Very rich. I love chocolate and even this was a bit decadent for me! I couldn't really taste the crust, and even though I'm more of a cake person than pie, crust can make or break a pie. The pumpkin was perfection! Spiced just right. Smooth, creamy and light on the tongue. I would say the pumpkin was better than the chocolate unless you're one of those people who squeeze chocolate syrup into your mouth as a light snack. The apple turnover was light and flaky, delicious and obviously home made pastry. Fair prices. Great little place to stop for a slice of pie and Americana. We were greeted warmly by staff and a table of older ladies playing a game of Mahjong. read more
