Great American Pies Month is celebrated in February, and you'll find sweet as well as savory options in Baltimore and surrounding areas. Whether you're looking for a traditional apple pie like grandma used to make or a filling, savory choice like bean pie, you'll be able to treat yourself at a local bakery.
Our real estate agents suggest stopping by these five bakeries during Great American Pie Month and beyond:
- Dangerously Delicious Pies - 2839 O'Donnell St., Baltimore, MD 21224
Located in the heart of Canton Square near Baltimore homes for sale, Dangerously Delicious Pies has a unique pie bar and a full line of sweet and savory pies. If you're craving a sweet pie, try a chess pie in lemon or chocolate or cream pie in banana or coconut. Order a pancake pie in a flavor like blueberry and top it with powdered sugar or syrup for a good excuse to have pie for breakfast. Fruit pies are also on the menu, and specialty pies include the shop's signature pie, the Baltimore Bomb, loaded with Berger Cookies melted and swirled into a sweet vanilla chess filling.
- Fenwick Bakery - 7219 Hartford Rd., Baltimore, MD 21234
For over 100 years, Fenwick Bakery has served generations of customers pies, cakes, pastries, and other baked goodies. Try a pie like cheese, coconut custard, lemon meringue, pecan, key lime, or a traditional fruit pie such as French apple, peach, or blueberry. You can also order the bakery's popular Boston creme pie in three different sizes. And if you'd like to order baked or unbaked pie shells or pie dough sold by the pound, you can get a head start and make sure the pies you make at home have a great crust.
- Woodlea Bakery - 4905 Belair Rd., Baltimore, MD 21206 and 548 Baltimore Pike, Bel Air, MD 21014
Woodlea Bakery is celebrating its 75th year in business, providing the area with freshly baked, made-from-scratch pies, cakes, breads, and more.

Pies come in three sizes, including six-, eight-, and nine-inch, and customer favorites include banana cream, strawberry cream, custard, chocolate cream, and fruit.
- The Avenue Bakery - 2229 Pennsylvania Ave., Baltimore, MD 21217
The pies will draw you into The Avenue Bakery, but you'll also enjoy a visit to Baltimore's historic Pennsylvania Avenue and appreciate the bakery's unique decor. The walls are covered with depictions of trail markers of the Pennsylvania Avenue Heritage Trail and pictures that tell the story of African-Americans in Baltimore. When you're ready for pie, order a mini, medium, or whole sweet potato, apple, pecan, or bean pie made from scratch.
