We’ve tried Shoofly Pie Company twice since it opened — shoofly itself was both sweet and tangy and we’ll leave it to the Eastern natives to tell us if that’s the way it’s supposed to be — but we can give unqualified rave reviews for the cherry pie: Not too tart, not too sweet, not goopy. We wrote to Shoofly proprietor Kimmy Hsieh Tomlinson to ask if she’s got anything to say to customers and would-be customers in WSB-land, about how it’s going and future plans; you can click ahead to read what she wrote back:
We are incredibly grateful to the West Seattle community and everyone who has come in to try our pies. We’ve been really excited about the response we’ve gotten (even at this early stage) and are happy to finally be open!
As you might have noticed, we’ve been adjusting our hours to meet the needs of our customers, and we appreciate everyone’s patience while we figure things out. We’ll be gradually increasing our production (while still making a high quality, fresh, handmade product), and have immediate plans to add more savory pies to our lineup. We’re always open to suggestions as to pies people would like to see, and we’ve received a number of great ideas already.
AND, we’ll be accepting credit cards starting this week!
We hope people like our stuff and keep coming by for more pie!
If you haven’t been there yet, Shoofly is on the east side of Cali in The Junction, just north of Oregon Street, south of the Post Office, in the former Bobby’s Hobbies space.
