We will however, have tickets for sweet pie only meals available at the door for the  12:30 - 1:30  time slot.  


What is Pie Palooza?
 

A delicious Sunday brunch which includes your choice of:

• two slices of scrumptious  sweet or savory pies
  baked by area chefs using local products;

• a farm-fresh salad;

• beverages
  

Chefs and bakers all over town are dreaming up special sweet and savory pie recipes for this annual celebration of all things pie.

The hardest part is deciding which slices to try!

Note: Not all pies are available at all seatings, but we promise to have a wonderful selection of both sweet and savory pies available throughout the day!

How do the timed seatings work?

We sell tickets for four timed seatings to assure shorter lines and plenty of seats.  You may purchase a ticket for 9:30-10:30am, 10:30-11:30am, 11:30am-12:30pm, or 12:30-1:30pm.  Walkups welcome if slots are not sold out.

How do I buy tickets?

Advance tickets are $16 per person. Tickets may be purchased with cash or a check at the REAP office from 9-4 M-F.  Or you may online [click here] until 5pm Saturday, November 3rd.    If time slots are not sold out, tickets will be available at the door on the day of the event for $18. 

 
Are there tickets for kids?

We do not sell children's tickets.  But since a meal consists of two slices of pie and a salad and drink, you can choose to share it any way you like.  We will sell "extra slice" tickets at the door for ticketholders who feel two slices aren't quite enough.  (Extra slice tickets will be $5)

Will there be options for vegetarians?

There will be options of both vegetarian and meat lovers throughout the day.  We'll note when sweet pies are made with lard in the crusts.  Since we never know what the chefs will create, we cannot garantee that options for vegan, gluten free, or other dietary restrictions will be available.

All pies are baked and generously donated by many of your favorite local chefs and bakers.
