Best Pie in Indianapolis: Ultimate Guide

Best Pie in Indianapolis: Ultimate Guide

There’s a particular kind of quiet pride in knowing exactly where to send someone for a slice of Hoosier sugar cream pie, and that’s a feeling Pots & Pans Pie Co. delivers on every single visit.

It’s the spot I point out-of-towners toward after we’ve done the obligatory stroll around the Monon, and it never misses. Their classic sugar cream is a smooth, milky masterpiece, but they’ll also spin out more adventurous fruit combinations that give the old-school standard a run for its money.

That flaky crust alone is proof they understand the gravity of the job. So consider this your cheat sheet to the city’s best pie.
