Their pie is delicious. I've never had cherry pie before and now I want to eat it every day. We also got the pot pies to go - just as delicious. We didn't eat there but the staff at the counter were helpful as we asked lots of questions about the various pies. We tried cherry, lemon meringue, berry with... more

I had a slice of apple pie and my wife had a slice of some kind of berry pie. Both were excellent. Clean inside and modern. Everyone inside seemed satisifed! Good prices. more

After all the great reviews my husband and I decided to check it out. At our first lunch visit, the line of tourists was out the door, down the sidewalk and into the parking lot. We waited 15 minutes without budging an inch, so gave up. The next day, we tried again in the mid-afternoon and made it inside. The... more

I tasted their Cherry Pie (pastry top crust, not the crumb top) for the first time on a trip to Charlevoix five years ago. I couldn't believe anyone could commercially make such a flaky yet moist crust and combine it with a cherry filling of tart cherries married with the perfect amount of sugar (which is not too sweet.) This... more

I have grown up with this place, as I grew up in northern Michigan. The pie is great, particularly their cobbler/crumb pies, so long as you are buying a pie that is in that season. They tend to use canned fruit when out of season, and I would personally rather they did not make the pie at all than stoop... more

I have won blue ribbons at the county fair on my pies and I love Grand Traverse Pie's baked goods. I even bought a pumpkin pie during the summer at the Lansing store when making a Thanksgiving dinner for Japanese guests. I didn't want to heat up my house any more than I had to. When I called they said... more

Very disappointing and actually, on the verge of TERRIBLE pie. Soggy, undercooked crust, and a twang in the cherry that's just wrong. Learn to back a pie at home and save yourself the money. more

After having read a lot of raves about this place, my wife and I had to check it out for breakfast. She ordered the chocolate cream pie and I had their breakfast croissant. As my order was delicious, hers unfortunately made her ill. Apparantly, there was way too much sugar content in their pie, making it super rich and hard... more
