Who we are

Pie is where the heart is.

We set out to create a restaurant that could work with the seasonal produce of the local valley. Pies, soups and salads turned out to be the perfect vehicle for that — blending flexibility with a familiar form.

We guarantee you won't find fresher, cleaner food.
