Pie Cloud

Pie cloud has great, fresh, real food for an amazing price.
The staff is really friendly — and the atmosphere is great. It’s cozy without trying to hard.
I’m seriously surprised this place isn’t busier.

This beauty tucked away in Kensington should be your new go to spot!
Everything at Pie Cloud is made fresh in house from their biscuits to their smoked meats. When I was there I had the sausage benny and my friend had the banana cream waffle. I consider myself to be a bit of a benny snob and they nailed it! The hollandaise was divine, buttery and rich, the biscuits were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The waffle had the most mouth watering banana cream topping with fresh banana slices. Everything was delicious, satisfying portions, and the coffee (custom roast from the Roasterie) was amazing!
Go now before this place takes off and you have to battle the line ups :)

This place is open poor hours and are overly meticulous about who parks behind their store and for how long. I did not appreciate the woman on shift waiting for me to walk around the entire building to brashly tell me to move my car. Pie Cloud will never receive any more of my business from today forward. As far as I am concerned the treatment that I received was not consistent with the feel of the neighbourhood. Additionally, the willingness of this woman to undercut the business of herself and others based on who puts their car where, is silly.

I love a good pie and the Pie Cloud does pie well. Unlike a lot of places, the Cloud hasn’t tried to reinvent the pie: they do a traditional flaky crust beautifully. This is comfort food done well. Try the apple pie milkshake!

Located in a quaint corner, in Kensington this charming little restaurant greets you with a vintage mid century modern décor making you feel like you’re visiting grandma’s house in the country side.
The staff were very friendly and we got a seat right away on a friday night. They were really helpful in helping us select something off the menu from their long list of pie choices. We had the mac and cheese pie and the steak and ale pie. We finished it off with an apple pie a la mode and lemon meringue. It was wonderfully delicious. We will definitely need to come back to try out their other pies. Watch out for their pie sale days on Wednesday and try a pie for only $ 4.95 /​slice.

This was a fun outing. I took my girl out on a mommy & me hot chocolate date. We dropped in for the first time for their YYC Hot Chocolate Fest entry and ended up buying two, one was boozy and one not.
Think about a Cherry Bourbon infused Hot Chocolate with a whole lot of goodness mixed in. Yup it was super delicious. My mini me liked hers but didn’t love it.
Pie Cloud offers a stellar selection of savory and sweet pies for lunch or dinner which had us drooling as we read over the menu. They also have a simple breakfast menu.
Great service, good times. Looking forward to sampling pies!

I had very high expectations for Pie Cloud but left very disappointed. For a diner that is supposed to specialize in pies I found the menu very basic and unimpressive and honestly something anyone can make at home. The slices were small and extremely overpriced and the quality was at best on par with most grocery store pies.
We asked about their popovers and pasties and were informed that they were not made that day and unavailable. We were also informed that they did not have some of the pies on the menu in stock. After a trip across the city to sample Pie Cloud I would expect to have all options available.

I give it 4 stars for the unique PIE experience, but would give it a 3.5 if I could. Lots of savory and sweet options and cute diner vibe. I ordered the luscious lime pie ($ 7) which was fantastic. Loved that there was lots of whipped cream on top, and it was the right combo of tangy and sweet. Gingersnap crust and the lime zest on top made it just perfect. My friend, however, ordered the lemon meringue pie ($ 8) and it was quite a disappointment. The lemon curd was more of a cheesecake texture and the meringue was more like a goopy marshmallow than a pillowy meringue. My friend who is a self-​professing «pie snob» was pretty bummed with it. Still tasted good and was definitely better than store-​bought, but no comparison for me to a legit homemade lemon meringue pie from what I tasted. And I expected it to be darn good from a place that specializes in pies.
We went around 7 PM and it closes at 8 and was pretty quiet in there. Nice little spot and good server, so I would for sure go again for the lime pie or to try a different kind, but would definitely stay away from the lemon meringue as it just wasn’t worth it.

Great place for breakfast, lunch or for pies. This was a delightful surprise for me as we intended to go to DairyLane Café but the hour wait was not worth it. We went here instead and glad we did, the BLT sandwich was special because of the good quality ingredients and the fried egg. My roasted mushroom soup was delish. My friend had a savoury pie and loved it. I’m going to bring my family back for breakfast, the place is big and the wait isn’t long I’m told. They have breakfast on weekdays till 11 am and on the weekend all day. Nice! This place was also rated as one of the restaurants to try from Gilchrist, although at the time I went I didn’t know that.

They have a mac & cheese pie with a bacon lattice — need I say more? I chose Pie Cloud for my last supper. Or rather, my last lunch with my coworkers before I left my full-​time job to be self-​employed. More than half our table went for the mac & cheese pie, myself included. I never turn down mac & cheese. This did not disappoint. You think you don’t want your heaping order of carbs and cheese served with pastry, but you really do. It was amazing. The side salad to balance out the ridic calorie consumption wasn’t bad either. To guarantee a food coma, we tried some dessert pies as well. The pecan pie is to die for, and the mermaid marshmallow one isn’t bad either. Based on our experience, I’d give the food six stars if I could! Restaurant itself is cute casual dining, and service is superb. It wasn’t busy when we went, which suggests Calgary has yet to stumble on this little city gem. Why not get a slice next time you’re in Kensington? You won’t regret it.

TLDR: Good pie, but –1 star for price.
Pie cloud has been on my list to try for a while, we finally had a chance to stop in for dessert after dinner and drinks elsewhere. Pie was good. We tried lemon meringue, keylime, and mermaid (how could we NOT order a slice of mermaid pie!?) The lemon and mermaid pies were a bit on the sweet side for our tastes, the key lime was spot on, probably because it is topped with whipped cream instead of marshmallow-​ey meringue.
3 of us had pie and coffee, but with tax and tip the bill came to $ 50! OK, it was acceptable pie, but not worth the price I think. $ 3 for a coffee (small cup, no refills) is a bit pricey, as is 8 – 9 bucks for a slice of pie… It was definitely better than a supermarket pie, but not miles ahead better.
Also, there are only 8 choices for sweet pies, but most of them cream based. Only Apple and pecan are the other options, which seems unusual for a pie restaurant… I would honestly have expected more fruit pie selection, or even a seasonal or weekly special. I mean even Blackfoot diner has the same if not more to choose from.
The pie was good enough to warrant a return trip, but the price tag has me second guessing that, and feeling like I would rather try elsewhere, unless I am really hankering for a slice of keylime. Even then though, I would get it to go, and grab a coffee from somewhere else.

Place specializing in pies! Sounds so great.
The restaurant is located in Kensington which is great. Their hours are a little weird. Closes a lot earlier than google says. I let them know and not sure if they’ve fixed that yet.
They ran out of ALL the sweet pies when we went. They ended up serving us a custom order pie because there were still lots of people in the restaurant who were probably as disappointed as us that a pie restaurant ran out of pie lol. Maybe the bakers need to plan that better.
The savoury pie was pretty good. It really tasted like a chowder in pie form. The sweet pie was less than impressive.
I think although I wasn’t blown away, I’ll give this place another try when I am craving pie. Hopefully they figure out their demand and iron out all the issues of being a brand new opened restaurant by then.

Pie Cloud is located in the heart of Kensington, right near the trendy coffee shop, The Roasterie. Street parking should be available but it could be hard, depending on the time. I normally park on the side street and walk a bit.
I’ve been wanting to visit Pie Cloud since I discovered it on my own, walking down the street one time. I attempted to go during a long weekend but they were closed :(so when my gf asked where I wanted to eat I said, «PIE CLOUD». She was quite hesitant because she thought it was just a dessert place but I told her that we could have dinner there as well. She was still hesitant… until she got to Pie Cloud before me and looked at the menu — «Yup, this place looks good, we’re staying» aaaaannnd that’s all she wrote.
But really, when I entered Pie Cloud for the first time I was too excited «SEEEEE!!! I knew you would want to try, SEEEE: P!» The place is soooo cute with the color mint blue scattered throughout the restaurant. The lady at the front was super friendly and there is a pie display near the entrance so you can gaze at that for a while. We were all standing at the bar, too excited to even sit! There were 3 of us on a Wednesday night around 7:15pm and they weren’t busy at all so we got to sit anywhere. I already knew from reading reviews that I wanted either the turkey dinner pie or the mac and cheese but they do offer other menu items aside from sweet and savory pies, like burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches and salads. Our waitress was good at giving mouth water descriptions of the pies and that helped with the decision. We all got waters which came in high stem glasses and I decided to go with the turkey dinner pie with fries, Michelle went with the mac and cheese pie with soup and Michaela went with the chicken pot pie with salad. I was going to try and be all healthy and get the salad but when she told me that EVERYTHING is made in house and hand cut, I knew I wanted to try the fries.
When our pies arrived, we were pretty stoked. I thought the pies were going to be smaller than they actually were so that was a bonus. I had a couple fries first and I knew it was all going to be good. The fries are clearly hand cut and they had a nice light crisp. The gravy actually came with the pie but I dipped my fries in and was delicious!!! Not overly salty like the average gravy but peppery and tasty! I was impressed. Now to the turkey pie… O.M.G., to be honest I didn’t have super high expectations with this place but man, my turkey dinner pie was AMAZING. The crust is made out of stuffing, there are nice chunks of carrot, celery, onions and of course turkey. The turkey was really moist and the mashed potatoes on top were scrumptious. It came with a side of cranberry relish and more gravy. Of course you need a little bit of everything to get the full turkey dinner experience and it’s really heavenly. I love cranberry sauce with turkey so it was unreal, I can really taste the sage spice too! I think there was a moment I closed my eyes and thought it was Thanksgiving or something but nope, it’s only September! Michelle thought the mac and cheese pie was good and thought the lattice bacon was neat but overall, nothing to rave about, she mentioned the soup was good as well but salty. Michaela enjoyed her chicken pot pie but didn’t finish it so she packed the remaining’s up. They each had a bite of my turkey dinner pie and reallllly liked it and said they would get it next time.
Being at Pie Cloud, I HAD to get a sweet pie to go. I saw many posts of the mermaid pie and was really craving a pecan pie so I was indecisive. Our waitress told me about the mermaid pie which was orange with blue curacao that gave it a zing, I don’t love orange so I didn’t go with that. I went to peek at the display to help with my decision and the pecan pie wasn’t shouting out to me so I went on a tangent and decided to get a slice of lemon meringue (I had it when I got home and it was just as she told me. Super light and airy, nice lemon layer with the perfect tartness, sweet sweet pie and the fluffy meringue to finish, YUM).
Overall, my first visit to Pie Cloud won’t be my last. Service was attentive and extremely friendly and knowledgeable and the food was really good AND prices are reasonable! It’s the perfect place for a night out with the girls to eat or if you just want a glass of wine with dessert and chat or date night with that special someone!
Ohh, I was told that they have a feature pie once in a while that is not listed on the menu but Facebook or Instagram is the way to keep up to date with Pie Cloud! Next time I want to try the sweet addiction pie and everything else ;)
*daydreaming*…I’m on Cloud Pie…

Had some great meals here. Wasn’t sure what to expect. I’m a fan. They need to work on their turkey dinner pie. My expectations were not met. Too many onions. Everything else I have had there has been great.
Whatever you do, don’t leave without having an apple pie milkshake

I met with a friend for brunch on a Saturday. I ordered coffee ($ 3 is a bit pricey) and BBQ Pork Pie with cornmeal crust, mashed potatoes, and coleslaw. She ordered a massive breakfast sandwich. It was much larger inside than anticipated. Although they didn’t have the pie ready at 11 AM, they made it specially for me. The pies aren’t very large, but they are very filling. I struggled to finish!
This place is really nice for a special treat. Family-​owned and operated with lots of items including my favourite: Chicken n Waffles. The owner came around towards the end of our meal and asked us how we enjoyed ourselves. That was a nice touch!
My only beef is with the pricing. If they lowered the cost by around $ 2-​$ 4 dollars it’d be easier to give a higher star rating.

Pie Cloud is Pie Heaven! Finally got a chance to eat at Pie Cloud in Kensington. We ordered the following:
— Chicken Pot Pie — creamy and delicious with tender pieces of chicken amidst mixed vege of peas and carrots
— Shepherd’s Pie — Minced lamb with a dollop of mashed potato on the top — quite tasty.
— Boston Chowder Pie — It’s like eating a Boston clam chowder in a pie. The clams were tender and didn’t taste fishy. Very well done.
— Mac & Cheese Pie (without the bacon lid) — Very cheesy and tastes so good with a nice crispy top and flaky pastry. Opted for not having a bacon lid which gave me another side to order and I opted for the mushroom soup of the day. Delicious!
All these entrées came with a side salad, slaw, or fries.
Of course, we had to have dessert pies so we opted for the special dessert Maple Pecan Pie ala mode and the Banana Cream Pie. The Maple Pecan Pie was chockfull of pecans in a nice sweet filing; it was well received. The banana cream pie was just ok.
Sure, we’d come back for savory pies any day!

Super friendly staff. Adorable atmosphere. Wish I wasn’t getting takeout! They brought out the chef to answer my gluten free questions. I got a burger with a lettuce wrap. They didn’t have buns but let’s be honest people it’s a pie shop. I would’ve gotten the shepherds pie but a little heavy with what I’ve got going on tonight. Not a lot of gf options but it is really hard with pie.

So my Lil sis bought this lime meringue for me to try, my older sister delivered, my mom flipped it over. It was still delicious.
So I made an effort today to try this Pie Cloud. I ordered the bbq pork pie. Cornbread crust filled with bbq pork and a dollop of mash potato. Side of coleslaw. This was was spot on! I even washed it down with the apple ie milkshake. Chunks of apple and crust in the shake. This satisfied pie Eater was full
I took a slice of maple pecan pie home.
Adventures, this is a must try. Meat pies, shepherds pie, dessert pies, etc. This asian sensation just became one satisfied customer and I look forward to coming to try the other savory meals here. I posted my pic of my upside down pie.

Excited to check this place out we went on Saturday about an hour before close. I tried the Mac n cheese pie and my boyfriend had the pulled pork pie. He asked for an apple pie milkshake but unfortunately they were all out of apple pie for the day. He ended up getting a plain vanilla shake — when we got the bill it turns out a plain shake costs the same as a shake that has a pie slice incorporated into it. I think a different price for a plain milkshake should be sorted out.
We were ready for dessert about 20 minutes to close. At that point there were only banana cream pie, mermaid pie, and one slice of pecan pie left. I felt bad for suggesting we check Pie Cloud out because my guy is a big fan of key lime pie and treating him to a slice of Luscious Lime was a big reason for wanting to take him there.
We were quite satisfied with our entrees; it is just a shame that we did not get to try out more sweets. I understand that you can run out of things near the end of the day — especially if you want to only offer freshly baked items so I can’t fault them for that. I just suggest to diners that you check out the place earlier in the day to make sure you have a bigger selection to choose from.
And if I could suggest something to the operators of Pie Cloud; maybe you could use Twitter or other social media avenues to update the public on what you have run out of throughout the day. It would create more of a sense of urgency for your fans to get what they want earlier in the day and would help others plan what day they would like to pay a visit.
Can’t wait to nab a slice of Luscious Lime for my sweetie and apple pie for myself. The mermaid pie was alright but we’re more classic pie folk.

I took my two girls with me for brunch today. It was empty, but it was only 10:35 am and it was Tuesday after the long weekend. Perfect setting for us. We got tons of attention from the staff and owner who are all so sweet, kind and attentive! They let us sample their yummy cereal bars while waiting for our food. Think Rice Krispie squares but a million times tastier and chewier! We tried, cinnamon toast crunch, fruit loops and chocolate Cheerios! I’d go back for those alone.
The place is super cute. Modern look with reclaimed wood and vintage accents. For décor they had pie safes, an old retro kitchen stove and even the chandler is made from old pie tins and baking accessories! It was very cool. It has a hint of mint colour based on a retro themed purse. The ketchup and condiments come in little mint tin buckets. Super cute!
The food… Oh the food! To die for! So tasty! My littlest got the mac n cheese pie. Creamy dreamy with a hint of hot sauce. The pie crust with it is perfect! My older daughter got chocolate French toast and she could not stop eating. It was sweet, but not too sweet. She left way too full, but very satisfied. I got the basic breakfast and it was delish! The sausages are butchered and smoked/​cured (?) in house. They were so plump and filling. The eggs were perfect, but I fell in love with the hash browns! A perfect mix of fluffy mashed potato and crunchy outside seasoned to perfection. I usually skip the hash browns as I don’t li, but these ones were the best I’ve ever tasted.
I got a whole lemon meringue pie to take home to the family for dessert tonight and I also go a slice of the pecan and a slice of the luscious lime pies! Taste tested them all and let me tell you… I was in heaven! Best pies ever!!!
The girls and I also split an apple pie milkshake and it was exactly that., apple pie in a milkshake. It was delicious and so filling!!! We left there three very happy full girls.
