Windowsill Pies - New Orleans

Such good pie. Great service too. This is your sign to walk over to Windowsill Pies and get yourself a breakfast slice! Great way to start your day.Local business, great quality. They do not accept Apple Pay, so keep that in mind.

Some of the best pie we've ever had. The service was prompt and friendly. It's a small space but cozy, clean and cool and pleasant.All together, we tried five menu items:Southwest Scramble Hand Pie: Savory and satisfying. Nice texture, easy to eat. Just the right amount of filling. The crust was buttery and delicious.Strawberry Cream Cheese Hand Pie: Bright and tart and sweet. Easy to eat without spilling. And that buttery delicious crust! Good filling-to-crust ratio.Earl Grey Caramel Tart: Interesting, slightly unusual, and very tasty. The tea gave an almost herbal flavor but was not overwhelming. I liked it more with each bite. Very rich--we got the two minis instead of a whole tart and it was a perfect amount.Key Lime Pie: Some places inexplicably make Key lime pie with eggs, which I don't care for. This one was NOT eggy, thank goodness. Very bright and refreshing. I have no complaints.Apple Frangipane Tart: This was the standout for me. Perfect almond flavor. Not excessively sweet (none of our pies were), just a perfect amount. A bit fruity, a bit almondy, a nice satisfying bite. If I had time to go back, I would order this!We forgot to take pictures--we just couldn't wait to eat our pie.

Don't think I have ever had pie that was more delicious than the two I had from Windowsill. The fruit is exquisite. The cherry pie we bought yesterday morning is almost gone and there are just 2 of us. Can't give them enough praise. The crust is delish, light, and festive. Will be back for more...

Such a cute little place! Great ambiance. They host events like Poetry Readings, and the staff is quite knowledgeable. I asked for a little sweetener in my iced coffee, and the staff informed me about the semi-sweetened vanilla that is already included in the drink and takes the edge off. It really was perfect.The only bummer I had was the size of the individual slices of pie. I bought key lime and peanut butter slices, and at $8 a piece, I was hoping for something a bit more substantial. Both were great flavors, but not enough for me to justify going back for the cost. Good experience overall, but definitely pricey.

Had the most wonderful lunch and dessert pies today at Windowsill. We will be stopping in again.
