Was craving key lime pie and the slice from Three Babes really hit the spot! The key lime filling was just the right amount of sweetness, tang, and silkiness. I wish the quality of the crust were more consistent. We got two slices about a week apart; there was barely any crust on the bottom of the first slice (and it was soggy), and the second slice had a thicker layer of crust that was baked better. I think the ratio of crust to filling is a bit off, i.e. I'd prefer slightly thicker crust to balance out the custard-y filling. We also had a butter pecan slice and neither of us really enjoyed that one. Similar issue with crust to filling ratio: crust was paper thin on the bottom, so it just felt like you were straight up eating sticky goo. Filling was way too sweet for our preference also. The slices are pretty pricey at $8/slice and aren't particularly large; a whole pie is an eye-watering $50, which is expensive even for the Bay. All that said, there aren't many good pie places in SF so Three Babes stands out in that sense and is a nice way to treat yourself after a hard week. read more

I stopped by while in the Mission to try the pie here. I've been meaning to come to the kitchen location after seeing Three Babes at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market! I ended up grabbing a few slices of pie, including the classic apple, peach blueberry rhubarb crumble and peach raspberry crumble pies as well as a chocolate chip cookie (couldn't resist!). My favorite was the classic apple pie with the delicious flaky lattice top and the sugar crystals sprinkled all around. Love that the filling wasn't too sweet, it felt like such a great comfort dessert. I liked the crumble pies as well with tart + not too sweet berry, peach and rhubarb filling. I do think the berry fillings are a bit gummy. I prefer the apple pie filling with larger fruit chunks but overall all the pies are good and I could see myself coming back to make a whole pie for a holiday celebration! The chocolate chip cookies are nicely chewy and dense with sea salt on top. There's a generous amount of chocolate throughout and it definitely satisfied my chocolate cravings. read more

Since we were in the area I was curious to try Three Babes Bakeshop, which sells pies by the slice. Although the honey loved his slice of Bourbon Pecan (very sugary and rich), to be honest my slice of classic apple was disappointing. The apples (potentially not Granny Smith) didn't taste fresh or crisp. I also found the filling dry and muted without that bright cinnamon pop I expected. The service was prompt as the pies were already cut and boxed, but this also meant they weren't chilled or heated, and sadly Three Babes does not have outside seating (though inside there was a small bench). All in all, for me the experience was around a 3.7 but if you're in the area and you love pecan pie I'd say stop in. read more

Maaaaybe the best Pecan Pie I've ever had? -guy who's fav dessert is pecan pie. I found this little female-owned gem, after doing some online research for "Best Bay Area Pies", and it lived up to the hype! From my home in L.A., I ordered 2 pies for Thanksgiving Week pickup in SF. $50 each, but hey, my sister's family BUYS EVERYTHING FROM COSTCO, so I had to remind them that variety is sweet, and that not everything in life needs to come from Costco. Picking up the pies was super easy, and super friendly. We got the BOURBON PECAN (sooo rich and indulgent) -- and the unique and fresh-tasting BLACKBERRY CRUMBLE... I could taste the fresh, smashed-up berries in each bite. This was not some syrup-y berry flavored crap. This was as fresh as it gets. After picking up the pies, I told a friend - and he went and bought 4 PIES for his Thanksgiving gathering. Daaaang, ur welcome 3 Babes. I think I deserve a free slice next time I'm in town. lolz jk but mabye? read more

I used to see them all the time at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market where they still maintain a presence every Saturday. I usually pick up now from their commercial bakery on 16th Street. THREE BABES BAKESHOP is a lifesaver when curating a home menu, especially during the holidays when you need that little extra help to round out the seasonal menu. You cannot go wrong with a pie or any baked goods from TBB. Their menu changes with the seasons but you'll always find their CLASSIC APPLE PIE. Maybe their secret is their PIE CRUST, flaky, and moist, crazy good! Sampled: PUMPKIN (lifesaver during the holidays!) BOURBON PECAN KEY LIME STRAWBERRY RHUBARB (seasonal | vegan & gluten-free available) Non-pie: COOKIE SAMPLER (seasonal) - box of cookies, browns, bars - all good! One of the few items that cannot be shipped. After buying one as a gift, went right back and bought one for ME!!!! Do it! Want to try: CHERRY LATTICE BITTER-SWEET CHOCOLATE PECAN SAMOA PIE (it's got a GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST!!!) RHUBARB CRUMBLE (seasonal) BLUEBERRY or ANY BERRY CRUMBLE TBB also offers classes, as well as premade dough or par-baked pie shell for the home bakers who need a bit of help. I can see TBB for group events at the office, weddings, or any gatherings. I usually preorder for pick up at the 16th Street location. You can also arrange for pick at the Ferry Building Marketplace on Saturdays. I especially appreciate the care instructions they provide with the pies so there's no guessing - fridge or no fridge? I intend to eat my way through their inventory but I have one wish...for a Chocolate Bourbon Pecan pie!!! See you there! read more

I'm all about supporting women-owned businesses, but unfortunately no pie should be worth $50. I was excited to try their blackberry crumble pie after snagging the last one on Thanksgiving. While the flavor was good, the bottom crust was extremely thin and the filling was very loose and jam-like, lacking the structure I'd expect from a pie at this price point. I'd recommend trying their individual slices instead -- less is more in this case. read more

I finally got here with a little driving from my friend. We shared a slice of key lime pie and bourbon pecan pie. Key lime is the best. Smooth. Tart and sweet. Anything with booze is good. Big pecans, butter, caramelized pie shell super crunchy and thin. Yum. No Pic, because no self control and had to eat. Read their bio. So cool that there mission is to highlight central valley. I agree, central Valley has the best fruits and agriculture. read more

Unexpectedly found this place when I was in the area and craving a little sweet treat. As soon as you walk through the doors, you get pulled in further by the sweet smell of baked goods. I happened to stop by in the middle of the weekday and there was absolutely no wait. I ordered the bittersweet chocolate pecan pie which was just so rich and not too sweet. If I'm in the area again I would love to try their other pie flavors and the chocolate chip cookies! read more

First time trying pies from here and it was absolutely delicious! I got a slice of their classic apple and a slice of the blackberry crumble. I loved how they both weren't too sweet and were both had a generous amount of filling. Both slices were $8 each which I feel is reasonable for San Francisco. There also wasn't a line when I went so they were able to get me my pie very quickly and were very nice in providing me more details about the process for ordering a whole pie (if it wasn't something they had in stock). I can't wait to try more of their pies and the different flavors they offer! read more

I was gifted the signature Salted Honey Walnut pie via mail. It was delicious, and tasted exactly how it sounds. I think bourbon pecan pie is more up my alley, so I'll try that next time. The pie must have shifted in transit, hence the appearance of its top layer, but it still tasted delicious -- even though it was sitting in my mail room for two days without cooling packs in the package. Impressed! read more

Very solid for pie, terrific service. Peach is a bit sweeter and more dense than some, but the crust is great when it's fresh. Banana cream is more creamy than banana-y. Vibe is industrial bakery, totally on point. No seating but that's, again, in line with the vibe. Not my favorite for pie but I see why they are so well-rated. read more

There is no way I can show how much I appreciate her determination to get me back my mobility. Thank you. read more

The pies here were good, but I don't think they are worth $8/slice. Especially considering the portion size is pretty small (4-5 bites). Also, I get that they want to prep as much ahead of time as possible, but my slices were not cut fresh when I ordered; they were already packaged. At these prices, it really should be cut fresh. I tried the Bourbon Pecan and Key Lime. The former was good, but I recommend throwing it in the microwave for a few seconds to soften it up a bit. The Key Lime was a bit too tart for my tastes. I don't recommend getting your pie fix here unless you really have money to burn; the value Just isn't there imo. read more

Delicious pie! I'm usually not a fan of pecan pie but my partner loves it. I ordered the bourbon pecan pie for his birthday and this was decadent. The crust reminded me of baklava. The filling was sweet and there are plenty of pecans. My partner loved the pie and I was surely impressed. We would definitely order pies from here again. The pies are on the pricier side but they seem to be handmade and fresh. read more

My husband wanted a pie for his birthday. Since he is the chef at That's My Jam, we scheduled it to be delivered during our service. We ordered strawberry rubarb crumble, apple, key lime and their special pavlova. Omg everything was incredible. But the service was unmatched. Will be ordering every CELEBRATION pie from them going forward. read more

So my friend wanted to give this place one star because his apple pie slice was so dey and overbaked and nasty that he threw it away. The one itself was cold, which was okay, but the apples were bitter, and the crust was so hard that he couldn't even cut through it with a fork. It tasted old and stale when I tried a piece. My Salty Honey Walnut was just meh. Not overly sweet but not tasty either. It tasted like something you would get with your high school lunch. They didn't do crust right. It's hard and tough, and not flaky or buttery. It's very bland. Can't see myself recommending this place or coming back--especially at $7 a slice. read more

Crust was tasteless. Yes it is flaky, but if you don't have that buttery taste, it completely ruins the entire pie experience. Why is it so hard to find a pie maker that knows how to make a buttery crust . So far I've only found one, and it is in Kansas City. I try pies in every city when I visit. It's my favorite food. Go check out Ashleigh's Bake Shop next time you're in Kansas City if you want to have a truly excellent pie. read more

This is a great pie shop in the city. If you enjoy pies with thick crusts, this is the place for you! I recently tried the pumpkin pie and the bourbon pecan pie. I was hesitant on getting the pumpkin pie because I wasn't sure if $45 was worth it for a fairly simple pie, but I was proved wrong. This pumpkin pie tastes distinctly unique and better than any other pumpkin pies I've had before. Most pumpkin pies just taste sweet, but you can actually taste the spices and buttery flavors of this one. This is a great option if you don't want anything too overly sweet! The bourbon pecan pie is a popular one here, but personally I didn't enjoy it as much. It was way too thick and heavy for me. A couple bites of a slice was plenty for me. Pro tip - do not make the mistake of placing an online order in the morning and assume they'll set aside what you ordered for you. I placed an online order for an apple pie at 9am with intentions to pick it up at 1pm. But I was told that the apple pie had already sold out, and they didn't honor my online order choice. This was very disappointing! read more

If a better chocolate chip cookie exists in the city, I'd love to know about it. Perfect balance of butter/sugar/chocolate. Instructions suggest 10-12 mins at 325, but 10-12 at 350 got me to brown edges/chewy center faster. I sprinkled some Maldon salt at the 10 min mark and let cool for 5 before scooping onto plate. read more

This was my partner and my first visit to Three Babes. Like others mention, the bakery is located a few blocks away from the busy part of the Mission, right next to the Dandelion Factory, but do not let location deter you. We were quickly greeted upon entering and the person who helped us was patient as they walked me through their different menu options available. We decided to try out their apple pie. We got four slices to last us for the weekend. The pie was so delicious that the four slices barely lasted the 20-minute car ride back home Apples were definitely baked fresh and we loooved how flakey and sweet the crust was. Yes, like others mention, slices are par to what you will pay in the Mission, but we definitely will be coming back! read more

I've only got pies for Three Babes Bakeshop. I love supporting local businesses, especially when female and BIPOC led businesses on which their claim to fame comes from a stand at a local Farmers Market. The success of Three Babes Bakeshop belongs to the steadfast loyalty of owner Lenore Estrada, who remains the last of the three co-founders still remaining with the company, as they have been around since 2011. Estrada has taken her love of baking pies as a child to a whole new level after graduating from the Ivy League and experiencing a stint in the tech, the concept of turning a passion of pies seemed like the impossible dream, but it has now become the dream fulfilled as they have storefront in the Mission neighborhood for online ordering and pickups in addition to walk-in orders, and of course their signature stand at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market every Saturday afternoon. Run by the nonprofit Foodwise, what makes these highly popular farmers markets stand out is that they proudly showcase some of the best local and sustainable farms, food makers, and restaurants from throughout the Bay Area. Yes, vendors drive from far and wide just to open their stand every week here at the epicenter of San Francisco transportation and tourism, as the ferry terminal entrance overlooks the Farmers Market and the Embarcadero subway station is mere blocks away. You'd be surprised at the energy that the Embarcadero has on any given weekend, as the rays of the sun beats down on people walking and riding their bikes, there is literally an energy that cannot be beat. That's why I was so glad to see Three Babes Bakeshop still having their covered booth at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market. You can't miss them, as they are located on the backside of the Ferry Building on the right hand side as you make your way towards one of the ferry piers. What makes the presentation at Three Babes Bakeshop so nice is that they have all of the pies that they are selling on any given day on their table as examples of what they have to offer. The slices are 8 dollars per slice, which of course is not the most affordable pricing, but is realistic what things are being sold for in our current times. I liked that they grouped up their pies in terms of texture and toppings, as all of their cream pies were lined up in front, their traditional pies were in the middle row, while their nut based pies like pecan and peanut butter were listed in the back row. I ordered a slice of their Banana Cream Pie and a slice of their Samoa Pie. With a total of 16 dollars before gratuity was added in, I was out the door in no time flat with my two compostable cartons filled with a slice each. The staff made sure to mark every new pie that they were cutting into to make sure that inventory for next week would be replenished with the appropriate amount of pies that they bring out to the Farmers Market to sell. When I got home I decided to eat their Samoa Pie first, as it was their special limited time only pie is modeled after the beloved Girl Scout cookie, and is a combination of Guittard chocolate, salted caramel, toasted shredded coconut, topped with fresh organic Straus whipped cream all, served on their homemade chocolate graham cracker crust. This pie, although delicious, was a little on the sweeter side. Their Banana Cream Pie is filled with vanilla bean pastry cream and freshly sliced bananas and then is topped with fresh organic Straus whipped cream and dark chocolate served on a traditional baked pie crust. This pie proves why Three Babes Bakeshop is such a revered local institution as the pie came with organic pastry ingredients, in addition to ingredients that were so thoughtfully assembled as they source from local farms, many of which are very well-known including Old Dog Ranch, Hidden Star Orchards, Yerena Farms, Balakian Farms, Tory Farms, Frog Hollow Farm, and G.L, Alfieri, among others. I do wish that they were participating at more Farmers Market because getting to their storefront in the Mission can be a challenge, which is exemplified by a lack of updates on their social media channels. But the fact that Three Babes has grown from a tiny pop-up into San Francisco's most popular purveyor of artisanal pies is something we should all be celebrating, so here's to hoping their storefront is just the beginning of their success story. read more

I hate to say something bad about Three Babes, but their pumpkin pie, for which I paid $8 for a slice, has a bottom crust that deserves to be called an integument. When my tongue hit my first bite, I thought I had bitten into some protective paper that had lined the pie pan. I showed a chunk to the cashier and asked her to show it to the baker. Who graciously came over to explain to me that blah, blah, organic, blah blah, moisture filling, blah blah. If Three Babes thinks the bottom crust of a pumpkin pie should turn purple and be slick and hard, they deserve to be taken down a notch. Perhaps I should have been offered a complimentary slice of key lime or pecan.... read more

Bourbon pecan pie. Loving it. Buying more. Enough said. Well, not really. I have about 3 other slices to try too but this first one really set the tone. Having my slice with coffee from Stable cafe about a block away. (Not supposed to bring outside food but I'm sneaking in bites!) read more

We went in one day and bought 4 slices, because why choose just one? We tried the berry crumble, the bourbon pecan ,the chocolate pecan, and the apple. Clear winner with our group was the bourbon pecan. Caramel pecan decadence is the only way to describe it. And their crust is thick but flaky..... lamination on point. Close second was the berry crumble, tart and bursting with flavor. Only to be made better by warming it up a bit with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.... Sheesh. Make the stop & pick up a pie. You won't regret it. read more
