Crema's Take
“This beloved Omaha gem earned its near-perfect rating by perfecting the art of the hand pie, from savory cheese and ham to creative sweet varieties like the Elvis Lives (peanut butter, banana, and bacon) with consistently flaky, buttery crusts. The warm, genuinely welcoming staff and cozy storefront create an atmosphere that feels like visiting a friend's kitchen, whether you're grabbing a quick pastry with chai or settling in for a slower coffee experience. Beyond their limited storefront hours, they're worth seeking out at the Sunday Aksarben farmer's market or catching one of their charming community events.”

This is one of my favorite spots in the WORLD! The pies are so incredibly delicious every single time, the staff are always so kind and welcoming and the events they throw are the cutest ever. 10/10 recommend. Get ya booty in here.
Stopped in today before I left town and they were delicious! I had the chilli pie and chai pear and both were amazing. The staff was very friendly and quick. Such a cute place.
Visited this morning for breakfast and bought two of the sweet pies, orange marmalade and Elvis lives (peanut butter, banana and bacon). Both were excellent. The crusts were flaky and just the right amount of sweet. Cute storefront with other local goods available for purchase as well such as hot sauce, prints and acrylic sculptures. Adorable and worth a revisit.
Love visiting their storefront despite the limited open hours. I also sometimes catch them at the Sunday farmer's market in Aksarben. I always crave their savory hand pies, and got a cheese and ham one this time. A little pricey at $8 each (the sweet ones are $5 each), but absolutely worth the indulgence every now and then. I appreciate that they have new flavors every week, and that they sell both ready-to-eat hand pies and frozen hand pies to take-and-bake as well. 🥧
Awesome lil shop doing it right! Friendly as can be and their hand pies were remarkably delicious! We stopped in briefly during our recent trip to Omaha and wished we could bring extras back to Lawrence, Ks where we’re from. The two we had (sausage & potato as well as a browned peach butter) were just what we needed to start the morning!
