    Worth the trip back to the gym! Just drive to this wonderful place and try something. Your day will be better doing so!! A smile will form as you enjoy the lovely baked goods! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The food, service and ambiance is spectacular here![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Awesome little bakery with a big heart! I love their unique spin on traditional favorites and honestly have never hated anything I've tried! Some of my favorites are the black cheddar pepper scones for something savory- they freeze wonderfully, too! The honey lemon meringue and the cherry bourbon pies are knockouts. The pie crust is dynamite- it's flaky and buttery and reminds me of a croissant. Their Robert Redford cookies are a perfect balance of sweet and salty! Be sure to get there early on the weekends- they tend to sell out! Also, make sure to check out one of their classes. My friends and I loved the pie dough making class and learned a lot!

    Strawberry rhubarb lavender pie

    Came in on a Thursday morning and had a slice of the strawberry rhubarb lavender pie. The pie was amazing and the little dollop of whipped cream they offer is a must. However, I didn't feel very welcomed here. The cashier was a bit curt with me and seemed to just want me out as soon as possible. I had never been so I wanted to look around a bit. After I bought the pie, she mumbled something to me and after a few seconds, I realized she was offering me a starter. It was a nice offer. Though the pie was incredible, the 3 stars is really just a reflection of the sour service.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super cute bakery![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff were kind & helpful. The bakery items were delicious & I still think about the cinnamon roll! They have lots of options, it was so hard to choose from! A little pricey though. Such a cute spot with lots of street parking. Definitely worth a visit!

    Sister Pie is an absolute gem in the West Village area. It's 10 minutes away from my abode and the self control it takes to not stop in at least once a week is far too much. Everyone is always very nice and there are options for gluten free friends at all times. Most recently I got the a slice of Maple Pie and vegan Brownie. The Maple Pie was so maplely sweet with a nice bite of delicious crust. The vegan brownie was just okay, it tasted vegan but not in a bad way just in a "I'm not a vegan so I rather be having a cream milky brownie" way. Will of course be back and happy to learn they started seving salads too!

    Out of this world DELICIOUS!!!  The expression on my face should say everything. Good thing I caught it on film, eh?

    Of course, I checked out the reviews of this place before I came. There was one that recounted lackluster treats. I wholeheartedly disagree. I'm visiting family from Seattle, and while looking for things to do, I noticed that Sister's pie was ranked one of the top pie establishments in Michigan. Of course I had to check it out. Unfortunately (fortunately?), for me, my day of discovery is none other than: pIE DAY!!! I ordered the chocolate pie, the Neapolitan, the salted maple, and the banana cream. Also wanted to check out the "out of this world" brownie, the Robert Redford and the very curious Rosemary shortbread! Let me start by saying that everything was good. The treats that stand out in my mind are, in this order: banana Pete cream pie. Wow. This pie is $&*t-your-pants good. The meringue on top is such a nice touch. Salted maple: no wonder this is their signature pie. Weak in the knees delicious. The balance of sweet and salt is perfection, the texture is silky loveliness. Out-of-this-world brownie: whaaaat?!?! How could this be so good. Light and fudgy with chocolate chips, I have been searching for a brownie, just like this for a very long time. Nearly tempted to go back and buy another. Rosemary shortbread: I really enjoyed the taste of salt, sweet and savory. Crumbly and delicious. Such a curious combination of flavors, I'm almost tempted to go back and buy some to take home with me. My pants beg to differ. Neopolitan: yum. I love that they tackled this flavor combination in this pie. Chocolate pie: this pie was outstanding, and my aunt's favorite! It tasted like a hug of comforting chocolate. So yes. If you're wondering whether you should drive into downtown Detroit, [[HIGHLIGHT]]you should absolutely make the trek, despite the construction headaches on 696(?). The shop is so cute and cozy, the staff uber friendly, an[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]d you can even purchase a T-shirt or a cute sticker as a souvenir of your trip. I will recount it with joy.

    Salted maple pie. I took a small piece. Didn't want more.

    My wife took her visiting sister to Sister Pie. They brought home a myriad of items, often recommended by others waiting in line. They looked tasty and were obviously an eclectic mix of ingredients and ideas. Unfortunately, none were particularly good. They were also highly expensive. Savory scones were dry and unpalatable- as scones often are. Vegan and gluten free brownies were also flavor free. The touted Salted Maple pie had a consistentcy like pumpkin pie. The crust was ridiculously dry and hard to cut through and the filler got eye-swirling, frowny face reviews from our oldest daughter (who is quite the baker) and myself. My wife and her sister did like the pie. Buckwheat chocolate chip cookies were also a flop. Rosemary shortbread cookies failed to impress. We had some other choices too; they're visible in the pictures. Daughter did like the peanut butter cookie but I think I had given up at that point. Sorry, but we won't make the special effort trip in the future.

    I've been dreaming of going to Sister Pie for months, and have finally been able to visit on a Saturday morning! We came here around ten minutes before open, and there was already a line. I do suggest if it's your first time (and there's a line) to not be one of the first people as it's a bit stressful being unable to look around first. We got the cranberry pie, curry hand pie, and peanut butter paprika cookie. They were all so delicious, they even exceeded my already high expectations. The cranberry pie had a beautiful tartness, smooth texture, with a lemon base on the bottom, and the CRUST!!! The hand pie was also flavorful, warm, and filling. The cookie was moist and had a great chew. Overall, can't wait to come back. Sister pie has such a welcoming atmosphere, I hope to have the chance to look more around the shop! Also, just to try more of their pastries. The pie dough really is fantastic. As a home baker, I hope to get my crust skills to that level.

    Yeah. Get that.

    You know what's amazing?? The cherry pie- I don't what else I can say other than to post these two pics. Amazing And you can go inside now too- which really is a game changer that empties your wallet quicker but I can't resist

    If you've got a sweet tooth - this is the place to be! An ever-changing, always unique menu that hits the mark every time! I've tried several things from here - Apple Sage Gouda Pie, Salted Maple Pie, and their triple cinnamon bun! They have all been pretty dang tasty. The salted maple pie, although their most popular, was not my favorite bc the texture is kind of off. I love the Apple pie tho. The triple cinnamon bun was so sweet and decadent - I'd skip on eating the outside layer tho to get to the gooey center. This neighborhood staple in west village is not only serving up delicious treats, but is also serving there community in a big way - passing out free lunches and supporting a neighborhood grocery project on the Eastside. Their prices are fair and you can. Feel great about paying them because they are always paying their team equitable and livable wages! So next time your in the West Village or in Detroit, you have to stop by!

    We stopped in for a little something sweet, after dining down the street in the afternoon. So glad we did! The friendly, but attentive women of Sister Pie were busy with their craft and helping customers. My companion tried a salted chocolate brownie, and i had a slice of the salted maple pie. Oh...my...! That pie was delicious! My only regret is that i did not by the WHOLE pie! The space is comfortable and full of little surprises. We will return.

    The Commons is a wonderful neighborhood resource. Great little coffeeshop with some sandwiches…read more Laundry facilities that are clean and work well. They just opened their Tech Center upstairs that has computers and Internet. I think there's also after school programs for children, there's help for seniors and low income people to get help navigating the various programs or grants that may be available to them. Even if, you don't need laundry, internet/computer access or help with navigating the various programs to help with property taxes, etc. just come in and grab a coffee and a snack.

I was here just after they opened (at 6 am!) and enjoyed morning coffee and wifi before heading to the office. I love a coffee shop that has a cortado on the menu. Or a Gibraltar. This tells me that the barista isn't some button pusher but instead of a craft coffee barista who actually has some training. I'm talking to you, Green Siren people. The barista this morning assembled a perfect cortado for me. Half espresso and half steamed (not foamed) milk in a short glass. I love the cortado because it's the same amount of coffee as a big latte but now I won't need to hit the restroom all morning! It was fabulous, delivered to my table as I wrote my morning's Yelp reviews. Dessert Oasis is a little grunge, a little industrial, a little coffee shop. It's not fancy but they have lovely wooden tables, comfortable seating, quiet music and power outlets. If I wasn't heading into the office, I could spend all day sitting here and OD'ing on great coffee. [Review 869 of 2025 - 434 in Michigan - 24426 overall]
