The Pie shop-Palisade Pies — Local services in Palisade

WARNING TO ANYBODY WITH ANY FOOD ALLERGIES: The pie shop does not correctly list ingredients/allergens for their products.

Today was a sad day. I went to the pie shop to purchase a couple of mini fruit pies, many of which I've bought and consumed in the past, because they are labeled as being non-dairy. I trusted that label, as the ingredients are listed out on each pie (no mention of butter or milk or any other dairy products anywhere) - and in comparison, there ARE many pies they sell that do clearly list dairy ingredients and say "CONTAIN: DAIRY".

Anyway - as I was about to check out the shop worker asked if I was interested in any of their cream pies, to which I replied, "No, thank you, I'm buying for someone with a dairy allergy". She said "Oh! Well - ALL of our pies have a ton of butter in the crumble." What?! Then why do none of the pies with the crumble list dairy as an ingredient? I asked her to clarify multiple times and she confirmed that ANY of the pies with the crumble topping have dairy in them. Apparently, the lattice pies do not, but I unfortunately don't trust this business any more if nothing if nothing is clearly labeled.

I'm lucky I only avoid dairy for minor health reasons, but the person I was purchasing for has a major dairy allergy.

Please avoid this shop if you need trust and transparency in what ingredients...

I had called to reserve two pies and the gal was happy to help me. Informed her that I was running errands and that I will be on my way.

Once we got to the shop there was a small sign that said closed. With multiple people/staff inside. My mother had walked up to see if there was someone to speak with but they had ignored her.

Another customer walked up to the door and the staff happily recognized her through the window and motioned that they were close.

I understand if there was a family emergency but there was no communication. When I had phoned previously no one told me that they were going to be close. No one attempted phone us to let us know that they closed early. As well as their open times posted is until 5.

If there was a sign that said "closed for emergency" I definitely would not have been upset and would not be writing this review today.

I understand their time is important but the customor time is important too. The time driving over to their facility and the lack of communication sealed the deal for me. Wasted gas and my time. I am very disappointed in this...

Loved this adorable little pie shop - and glad it was open in the off-season! (Be sure to double check the hours but it’s generally open from 9-5 each day according to Google maps). My husband and I drove out about 15 min from downtown Palisade in late January to get some fruit pies and were surprised by much more than just sweets. This shop has everything - coffee, ice cream, jams, jellies, pickled goods, salsas, cheeses and meats - all local (much from Anita’s produce, who I gather is the owner of both). I couldn’t help myself - I walked out with two mini pies (key lime and apple), two slices of strawberry peach rhubarb, two jars of salsa, Rosé jam and a block of garlic habanero cheese. Oops! Will definitely visit again the next time we’re back in the area, we were in a hurry but would love to hang out and grab some coffee to go along with...
