We stopped here one evening the end of May after reading all the wonderful reviews. Not sure if it was still to early in the season or if they always close early, but we got there at 8 and the kitchen was about to close. They were nice and let us order the chicken pot pie and it was wonderful.... More

This purple and pink restaurant shouts out to you to stop in! I love the giant pig statue on the porch. We just got pie to go and the bumbleberry pie was really, really good. The peach pie could have been a little bit sweeter, but I guess if we had bought ice cream to go on top, I woudn't... More

After a disappointing lunch in Hot Springs my family traveled here just for the pie! The couple working in front were extremely friendly ( I suspect they are the owners). The pie was delicious and a very generous portion...get it a la mode of course! My daughters both ordered ice cream, again good portions and good price. While there we... More

Whenever I'm in the Custer area, I always stop by here for lunch and a slice of pie afterwards. All their lunches are freshly made home cooked, same with their pies. If you're in the area, this place should not be missed!

We heard about this place while camping in Denver,CO. We were told that the Amish made the pies.. HOW WRONG. We had the special of the day for lunch "Chicken pot pie".. It was in a small bowl..pie crust lined the side, hot filling poured into bowl, topped with a crust circle. We expected a pie, hot, right out of... More

Delicious pie! We went there twice! Large slices of pie. Our group enjoyed PB Pie, Apple and Cherry. The place really is purple inside and out. They even have purple lilac bushes.

We did not have lunch or dinner but have had the pies many times. The cost is a bit high but it's worth it for a special treat. One of the things I like about The Purple Pie Place is that they have old-fashioned pies as well as the standards. Always a nice stop when in Custer.

We went here for dessert. How hard is it to get two hot fudge sundaes WITHOUT nuts? We are not allergic to peanuts, we just don't like them. Anyway, kind of ruined our sundaes. I know they were busy, but come on. Of course this was right after our order got messed up at dinner at another restaurant.
