National Pi Day, celebrated on March 14th (or 3.14) every year is a unique way to encourage math and science education… and gives us an extra excuse to indulge in some of Pittsburgh’s most delicious pies.
Here’s a short and sweet list of pie places to check out any time of the year.
The Pie Place
The Pie Place, located in the South Hills, is a must-visit to pick up your pie for Pi Day.
Choose from 20 different fruit pies including Apricot and Fruits of the Forest, as well as Peach Raspberry. Cream pies include 10 choices from Banana Cream and Cannoli to Peanut Butter Chocolate and Swiss Chocolate.
Piebird
Piebird, established as a brick-and-mortar shop in 2015 in Lawrenceville, specializes in rustic, old-fashioned pie-making. This delectable haven offers special orders, catering, and as well as wholesale throughout Pittsburgh, using only seasonal, local ingredients.

Located Downtown at 1059 Penn Ave., CobblerWorld serves 9-inch pies that will be a showstopper for any occasion.
