They speak Spanish but they don't give instructions well, I had a misunderstanding with the cashier and he reluctantly gave me the change, but the food was excellent

Exactly as expected. The pie is fantastic. It's a cute homey place where the staff was able to answer my questions perfectly.As an aside: get the version of apple pie you like, and then go to Mom's and get the cinnamon ice cream. If you happen to have hot cider or tea, it is the best. ?Parking: Just park along the street. There are lots of spots

Ever want to pay $6 for a microwaved pie? How about $4 for a refrigerated brownie that they won’t microwave? If you answered yes to either, this is the place for you.

Got a slice of original apple pie and vanilla ice cream. Perfect level of tartness and sweetness for me. The ice cream was delicious too.

If your reading this review you are not a long time San Diego resident or you are in a social circle that doesn't ever leave the city. Julian pies is not really about the pies at all. It is one of those great multigenerational hipster field trip food institutions like Katz's Deli in New York. The idea is that you go for a drive with your lover or family on a lazy Saturday or Sunday in the mountains. The scenery is great, but if you're not into hiking there isn't much to do when your there, and if you do hike you will be hungry, so either way you grab a piece of pie. Apple pie is the thing because Julian has been an apple growing area and that means you are tasting "local flavor". The pies are yummy and very overpriced but that is because you are really buying "a real San Diego experience".
When you come to the city of Julian, there are plenty of pie shops to choose from. I opted for Julian Pie Company and am pretty pleased with my choice. I decided to order their most popular flavor, the Dutch Apple and I got it warmed up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. We also ordered the apple caramel and some apple cookies to-go. I can see why Dutch Apple is so popular, it's delicious! It's exactly what you want Apple pie to taste like. Warm, sweet with flavorful chunks of apple and the ice cream complemented it well and cut the sweetness a bit too. Crust was fantastic! The cookies were a nice treat to eat a few hours later and my husband really liked the apple caramel pie although I preferred the Dutch version. Employees are friendly. Definitely come here if you visit this lovely town!

The pies were really good, but the town is a bit boring. There is not really much to do and the nice part is really small.

We went. For the most part, it's take out. You stand in line, pick your pie and then pay for it. Any special orders, they place your tray by where you pay and call out your number. It's small inside there. They have some tables and a bathroom. When they call your name, you better be listening because someone will be breathing on your order.Cashier wasn't that friendly either. I could've spent my $$$ on something else.I will not go back!

Just went in and purchased a cooked Dutch Apple and a frozen Dutch Apple for Easter dessert. The cooked one was great as expected! This reminder to post, reminded me the frozen pie is still in the deep freeze, haha. We didn't have it for Easter dessert. Always great pies there. ?
Good food, good beer, good day for
