Tldr: great late night staple. Deserted island is the best fruity pie, imho. Ambiance: small place in cap, with not so much seating due to the space. But they definitely maximize the space. It's cozy, a bit run down the chairs are now just covered with a seat cover. And it's only steer parking if ur driving. Ambiance: pretty chill service, we were the only ones there, gossiping late at night. He pretty much left us alone since we entertained us and gave us the check just when we were ready. Food: Im normally a chocolate dessert person, but the chocolate pie was a light chocolate. If you want a rich chocolate pie, this is not your pie. Honestly, the star of the show was deserted island. I don't normally like fruit pies but that's what I'll be ordering again. It's not too sour nor is it too sweet, everyone at the table agreed. It is the goldilocks of sweet and tartness for a fruit pie. Oh and definitely goes well with ice cream! read more

Pie Bar - Chocolate pie, deserted island pie - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I was unable to get served the bar tender was ignoring the group I was with to serve his and their attention (2 of them) to a group of girls who they were talking about going somewhere after the bar closes. I went around midnight and I really wanted to go eat inside, waited in line for at least 30 mins (45mins max) for a table , even the couple before me didn't get served and left. They told me not to go in and told me their story but I ignored and wanted to give it a shot. I should have listened. read more

I've been wanting to come here for a while, and after all the anticipation, to say I was disappointed is an understatement. Before walking in, I witnessed one of the employees taking a joint from a customer and smoking it. I get it, it's Capitol Hill, but to be working and doing this is insane behavior. I got The Desserted Island Crumble pie. For a place named Pie Bar, the pie was served in a to go box that resembled mush. It was unclear what was fruit vs crust. At the very least, it was sweet and warm, but honestly I could've just gone to my nearest grocery store and grabbed a slice of apple pie and it would've been better than paying $10 for this. It was so disappointing that I didn't even bother snapping a picture. The interior is small and old, the bar counter is cramped and you can barely fit through. The seats at the table are a dirty yellow fabric. The music is loud with bass amplified. I can see this place to be a good place to grab an alcoholic dessert drink or a place to start your night out in Cap Hill, but since I only ordered a pie, it was a weird non-alcoholic dessert ambiance for me. It was also hard to have a conversation over the bass. Overall just not the ambiance I am looking for when grabbing dessert, but maybe I'll consider giving Pie Bar a try again if I'm in the mood to try their Pie Tini drinks. read more

The amount of time it took to try this establishment plays a part in the two star review. Multiple attempts were made at the Ballard location, before they finally posted a sign stating it was closed permanently. As that was the closest location, it was disappointing. Next up was the Phinney location. After two attempts during business hours to arrive to a sign saying they were closed that day, without warning... told me maybe this was not the business for me., Very determined, we decided to make a last attempt and head downtown to the seattle location. I'm saddened that I did. The very tiny place seemed more like eating at a counter in your grandma's outdated kitchen. The large amounts of dust and unwiped surfaces spoke volumes. The ambiance was of a first day opening of a restaurant closed for many months, who just opened the doors prior to a cleaning overhaul. Lastly, regardless of how the pie tasted, it was hard to get passed the presentation. Barely resembling a slice of pie, and with the unfavorable textures, it was be hard to recommend this place. read more

What a fun little hole in the wall! Lots of people order outside and just take the pie to go. The cocktail list was fun. But did not realize how small it was inside. Very eclectic and fun vibe. Tasty pie! read more

Pie Bar - Chocolate Cream Pie - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This place is definitely a drunchies type of stop. Also a karaoke bar, wish I was there for that! Sitting here staring out the window feeling very 2005. Chicken Pot Pie - 9/10 very good with hot sauce Deserted Island Crumble - love the tart berries / sweet icing / buttery crispy crumble combination Strawberry Pietini - this drink was so cute but deadly. The server said there's about 3 shots in this glass and you can definitely tell. Powder sugar rim? Tastes like flammable strawberry milk. I think this place would be an amazing pit stop if one is stumbling from the bars and clubs down the street. Prices are fair. The inside is moody and intimate, a bit cramp but it's cute. Happy to have stopped by here. read more

The shop itself is wedge-shaped like a slice of pie. I was lucky to get in as the earliest customer on a working day. The tiny, obviously well-worn, hewn wooden bar at which high stools were positioned chock a block tightly, gave me prime view of the impossibly tiny work space in which old time electric ovens are bonafide baking pies. This feels like a throwback to the 1990s Seattle of grunge yore, not this sterile glass steel edition full of vacuous corporate tools. The bar would feel crammed and impossibly tight when full but it did have hooks beneath for your bags. Yay. The bar workers seem like good natured working stiffs who were in this ship's galley of a kitchen/bar for soul satisfaction, rather than for the glamor. I endorse. This place has street-food charm, and sometimes that feels good but at other times, you just want a more sophisticated bistro experience, and that it aint. So be warned. The pie I had included marrionberries and other sour berries to temper the apple. It was such a mountain of sugary decadence that I should have stopped after three bites. But I had, rightly, ordered the vanilla ice-cream on the side and couldn't let it run through my portage as I still had to get to a ferry and get home...an ordeal of several hours. Hence I wolfed down the whole mountain of fruity/pastry dessert. Don't come here if you are on a diet. Come here if you have some one to split a huge slice of pie overflowing with sugary fruit! Not sure why I don't give this place a 5 star rating. Maybe it was just that I was expecting something more home-made, sedate, and retiring with the sugar. This was a bit of a sweet punch. Don't mind me. read more

You can't go wrong with a slice of pie after a night of dancing and drinking! I have come here multiple times just to order pie and the staff is always welcoming. I finally tried one of their pietinis for the first time, and it actually tasted like a pie!!! It was sweet and creamy. I was so impressed by this cute themed drink! 100% recommend stopping by Pie Bar to end your night out - or just when you're craving pie :) read more

If I could give them zero stars, I would. We had steak pie with arugula salad at their food truck at a recent FIFA game. We had heard a lot about the Pie Bar and we've always wanted to give it a try. However, we were disappointed with what we received. First of all the slice was very small and lukewarm all but the meat, which was icy cold. The best part was the arugula salad. So was it worth $17.50 plus tip? NO! You could buy several pot pies for that price. At least they would be served hot. read more

I absolutely love the pb&J pie. If you want a rich, decadent, creamy pie then stop by Pie Bar! My stomach can't really handle these pies anymore but I can't stop eating them. One is not huge in size but rich enough to feed and satisfy the sweet tooth of 2-3 people. The Pie Bar here didn't have any line and almost all of the pies were available on the weeknight we went. read more

Found this on a whim while touring late at night...might I say..some of the BEST coconut cream pie I've ever had (and I've had it all over the US) and on top of that, it was karaoke night?!? So so fun! It's a TIGHT space but they do have a walk up window for quick pick ups. The staff was friendly and super cool...this would be my go to dive if I lived in the city. Will come back when we visit, again! read more

Making magic happen with 2 am pies. My experience at Pie Bar screams Seattle. This local business is serving up delicious late night pies, and dessert inspired cocktails, in a dark grungy dive bar. While the indoor space is tiny, it provides an incredibly intimate atmosphere. Bar-goers pack in like sardines, making it easy to chat with new friends. I ordered the Desserted Island Pie, which was stuffed with apple, strawberry, marionberry, raspberries and crumble, and tried my friend's Coconut Cream. The Desserted Island was definitely superior and seems to be their claim to fame. Pie Bar also offers a walk up window for those looking to take pie to go, but in my opinion, you really don't get the full experience unless you eat inside. Since I was finished with consuming alcohol by the time we arrived at Pie Bar, I sadly missed out on their elaborate cocktails. I definitely need to return to taste one of their pie-tinis! read more

Inside is very cramped and limited seating. Really feels like a bar inside with dim lights and music. We ordered to-go and the food came quick. We came during closing and didn't have a lot of choose from but these two pies. - Coconut Cream Pie: flaky crust with a delectable coconut cream. Sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes that gave each bite a little bit of texture through the creamy dessert. Very whip cream heavy but the buttery crust balanced it out. 8/10. - Chocolate Cream: An abundance of whip cream and barely found any of the crust. The chocolate was a milky chocolate flavor with hints of fudge. Wasn't too overly sweet but there was too much whip cream to crust ratio. 6/10 read more

The apple pie at Pie Bar hits that perfect sweet spot with its spiced, gooey filling and a crumble topping that's heavy on the butter. The space itself is tiny and intimate, giving off a cozy, late-night speakeasy vibe that's great for a quiet drink and a slice. I was impressed by how fast the service was, getting everything out in about ten minutes despite the narrow, bustling setup. read more

What an amazing Bar! My friends and I stumbled upon on this place while walking to another bar and aren't we so glad we stopped. We had great drinks, great fun karaoke and all sorts of different things. We got to experience the truth of Seattle and we are so glad that we did. The service was excellent. We got our drinks quickly and they were all very tasty if I lived in Seattle. I would come to this bar every single day! The owner is kind and everything that you would want from a bar owner. I cannot recommend this place enough. You should absolutely come here and hang out. read more

Delicious pie and cocktails spot! Love that it's a late night dessert spot. When we're done with dinner, we can easily hop by Pie Bar for dessert and good times with friends. We had the Oreo and Creme Pie - would recommend for Oreo lovers who want a safe pie to try. We asked for ice cream on the side because ice cream and pie go well together. The pie is generous in portion - it's very shareable. Service was so good. We had a kind and friendly server who gave us recommendations on what to try. Ambiance is casual. Loved the open space on a Thursday evening. Parking is street parking. Bathroom is clean meaning the kitchen is clean. All in all - I love this place. It's a community spot and a late night option with friends. read more

This place was a great late night dessert spot! It was so handy and close to our hotel. We found ourselves wanting dessert after a late dinner and not much was open. We found the pie bar walk up window in Capitol hill! Service was great. The employees were nice and had great pie recommendations and we placed our order & the pie slices came up quickly. The pie was great & very tasty. Easy post dinner dessert spot! read more

In the early hours of the AM after several drinks at another local spot my insatiable craving for dessert brought me here. I knew I wanted pie and what a coincidence this place was a pie bar. The uber dropped us off right in front and we walked in and were welcomed right away. Everyone was enjoying themselves and singing along to karaoke. My type of place to be honest. I ordered a slice of apple pie which was brought out quickly and I asked the bartender/pie guy if they had any ice cream and he said yes and gladly took my piece to add some. The pie was nice and warm with a good crust filled with apples and paired well with my vanilla ice cream. I absolutely enjoyed it. The whole vibe of the place was friendly and met people quickly with whom I ended up singing several song with. One of the girls and guys there were such good singers! I had such a great time! Definitely will be a place I'll revisit and have some pie and a drink and have my lungs ready to sing to my hearts content. read more

Great place to stumble in to in the middle of the night! Tried drinks of a couple types, I preferred the more fruity apple pie mule, but the creamy pietinis and warm&fuzzies are delicious as well (but FILLING). Don't expect beautiful serving or seating, just a nice hot slice of pie with some ice cream! Pie Bar will also host karaoke if you ask, but you'll have to squeeze up by the bar (note: not non-ambulatory friendly). Would definitely pop in here again after a night out read more

Pie Bar - Apple Pie - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Totally understaffed on a Saturday night. I had planned to eat inside so I stepped in and saw no one except for the baker behind the counter. I tried asking if you ordered inside to eat inside, but unfortunately he didn't speak any English, so I stepped outside and waited in the takeout line. When I got to the front of the line I asked again about eating inside, and the guy at the window told me that I should order inside to eat inside. So I went back in, but by this point several people had stepped inside and there were no seats left! I had to wait for him to "open the bar." I finally got a seat, and then he took 2 other parties' (who had arrived after me) orders before mine. I should've just ordered at the window and brought it inside, like another party did. The pie was OK, not great. It was served very hot (too hot) and falling apart. I don't know if someone didn't show up to work tonight, but having only one staff member working for both the takeout window and the bar itself is clearly not working! read more

I really wanted to like this place. It's very cute, but tiny! It's a short walk from SpringHill Suites where we were staying so we didn't have to look for parking- but I don't think there was much parking available. Not long after we were seated a long line formed behind the 'velvet rope' waiting to be seated. We felt rushed to leave. Unfortunately, the recommended seasonal peach pie was soggy- (more like watery) and had a weird artificial aftertaste. It could be a bad batch or peaches were overripe (tasted fermented). They replaced it with apple pie, which was also underwhelming (and that was the safe option). The pies were dated on the paper container and felt like they were microwaved to warm. Not worth the price per slice. I am offering 2 stars because the peanut butter pie was good and the staff was so sweet. But the overall experience for me was not great. It felt as though they were understaffed and mostly stayed inside to service the few chairs at the bar. Hope this is a place that maybe regulars enjoy. read more

Pie was good but there was a misunderstanding on my part, for waiting to enter and having pies for take out. Pie had really smooth and good flavor and creaminess, did not go into bar to sit they really couldn't accommodate for party's larger than 4 it's very very small inside. Girl at pie window was funny and very personable. read more

If I had been able to get a slice pie after being jerked around about being told to go inside to order by a worker after waiting at the window outside, only to then be told I needed to order outside by another worker...they aren't accepting all forms of payment so I walked a mile in the rain for nothing... I'd give more than 1 star! read more

Favorite dive bar, the one and only, accept no imitation. Pie themed cocktails. Killer pie baked literally in front of. This place is tiny, so go early or be patient and wait for a table or at the bar. The crust is the true mark of any good pie. Flavors change daily. Savory will knock your socks off. Seattle don't miss. read more

Such a cute cozy space for a late night slice of pie! Full bar, great pies, and a super friendly staff!

I never write reviews especially bad reviews! Love this place for occasional late night drunchies since I moved to Seattle. Pies are yummy and warm. I was here on Saturday night and I saw I think the owner or manager in a big fur coat come in, obviously drunk or on something yelling at the overwhelmed bartender on shift and making her start crying. I love the pies but I felt so sorry for her she was working so hard. Management really needs to change read more

We've been here several times over the past few years but their pie has progressively gotten smaller, sloppier, plainer, and more expensive. Went here this week to get three different slices of pie to enjoy for Thanksgiving and were disappointed. The mud pie was too much peanut butter and not enough chocolate. The pecan pie was almost inedible as it had so many pecans and no pie filling. read more

For all the right reasons, friends have recommended Pie Bar to me. Pies and drinks, what's not to love? Since I didn't have time during my previous trip, I knew I had to visit while in Seattle! Pie Bar gives off the perception of your family's kitchen but with a hipster-like twist to it. Tiny in size, close and intimate seating, with the aroma of freshly baked pies and chatty diners filling the air. We came on a weekend night and were seated immediately. Workers were friendly but service was a bit slow as they were busy juggling baking and crafting beverages. I came with my companion and Seattleite, Jennifer L. We all enjoyed libations and pies. The companion and I split a slice of the Desserted Island Crumble. Topped with crumbs, warm and gooey, and a sweet messy goodness; he and I devoured it. My friend enjoyed a slice of Pumpkin Pie--it was nicely spiced. She stated their apple pie is divine. For those into drinks, desserts, and nightlife Pie Bar is a lovely concept in Capitol Hill off E. Olive Way with parking in the neighborhood. You'll find sweet pies paired with drinks, divey dine-in or to-go options, and decent service depending on the time or day. read more

Interesting spot. The space is clean and has cool decor and lighting, but it's small and gets crowded. My party of 3 got a table, but we were short one chair and they didn't have any more, so I had to stand until another party left. It wasn't anyone's fault, so the rating is independent of that, but it goes to show that they can't accommodate too many people at once. We shared the Apple Crumble and the Desserted Island Crumble pies. The crumble itself was nice, buttery, and crunchy. The apple pie had caramel on it and the filling was sweet as well, so the sweetness got a bit overwhelming after a few bites. The Desserted Island pie was a bit better because there was some tartness to balance out the sweetness and butteriness. The pies were also not completely heated through when they got to our table: the crumble on top was warm, but the filling was room temperature. Service was good. Staff is friendly and accommodating. I wouldn't come back on my own because I don't find the pies worth the wait, but the Desserted Island pie was good enough where I wouldn't be opposed if someone suggested coming back. read more

Such a cute spot we stumbled on. The pie warm with vanillas ice cream was so good. We got the berry one and the fruit tasted so fresh!

Mud pie was pretty flavorless. Kind of just tastes like chocolate pudding covered in whipped cream. The fruit pie was better but a touch too sugary. Def not worth the price. read more

I was first introduced to Pie Bar in 2015 when I moved to Seattle. Tonight was my last visit. Let me say that I no longer live in Seattle so it's been a few years. Their pies are also still insanely delicious. Stopped in tonight around 9 on a Sunday with a friend. Maybe 5 other people there. Quickly handed a QR code for the menu (always lame. Your menu is not large. Print it.) The main server was busy chatting it up with customers at the counter. The other obvious employee was sitting engaged with his phone. After about 10 minutes we had to call for the staff to wait on us, as otherwise we were invisible. When asked about drinks we requested water and were told there was in a cooler near the bar with paper cups and we could turn the, "whatever it's called, I don't really know (aka spigot)" and help ourselves at which point the "server" walked away. The pies arrived promptly from a previously unseen staff member. The pies were perhaps half the size of what I remember from ten years ago, but certainly not half the price, and were served in a disposable paper box. I original "server" had returned to their chat with people at the counter, the other employee was still engaged with his phone and our self-serve water was at our table. So glad to be a valued and appreciated customer! I hope the conversation and phone scrolling were titillating and more important than us. No tip was given and a complaint could be heard from the "server" as they received the tablet after we paid. It would have only taken actual service, such as leaving their conversation to actually wait on us and not having to be called down to take our order, and maybe bring some water instead of directing us to self-serve to get a 20% tip. It. was. not. busy. When we left there were two other customers. Tipping is for service Repeat business is for quality of service and product. Alas while the product is still excellent, the small slice means they are selling a pie for something like $120 and the terrible service no longer makes Pie Bar worth being on my list to visit. Such a disappointment Too bad. It used to be so good. read more

Regrettably, after standing in line 20 minutes outside to get a piece of pie to-go, I was definitely disappointed with the end product. I ordered the mud pie, but at the window they said they were out of it, so I moved onto the coconut cream pie. The pie didn't really resemble a pie piece when I opened the container, as seen by my photo. The worst part of this pie was that the crust itself was way underdone. The crust was white in color, someone took it out of the oven way too early. This was my first visit and I had high hopes, but unfortunately, it fell short for me. read more

This small, cozy bar was about 15-20 minutes, walking distance, from Downtown Seattle. As a tourist, I was in a group and felt safe walking here. I'm not sure if I'd take this walk alone as a tourist. We arrived close to midnight and sat inside. Very cool, relaxing bar. It's very small inside, so we took up the entire bar/ inside area with 6 people (excluding a small table on the side). In addition to ordering martinis and wine from the bar, they have pie! I did not order any, but my friend said it tasted delicious. The expresso martini was great also. I don't recall a menu to order from, but the bartender/ owner was extremely helpful. Great vibes at this place. read more

We came here for some takeout pie on Wednesday night October 9th after dinner & hanging at a bar nearby. Has to try the pie after seeing this spot when looking up desserts on Yelp. Was a bit disappointed when we came by Tuesday night and they were closed, the hours on Yelp had not yet been updated, so the scooter ride was a bit of a waste. This spot has a bar inside & Togo window for pies on the outside left, a unique place just for that combo alone. We got the chocolate pie & mud pie and scarfed it down back at the hotel, it did the job of meeting a late night craving after dinner & drinks. read more
