LOVE that they have so many vegan pie flavors. I went to a pi day event and got to try the vegan apple, blueberry, mixed berry, and cherry pies. All of them were absolutely delicious, even when reheated a few days later.

Picked up some cutie pies this time, which were $4 each. The size is good if you want to try multiple flavors, but I feel like you get more bang for your buck if you pay $9 for a 5" pie instead. - Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Cutie Pie ($4): Very thick, rich, and chocolate forward (so much so that I didn't taste any of the pecan flavor). The texture of the filling was almost like that of an undercooked brownie. Wasn't bad but probably not something I would get again because of how heavy it was; I'm glad I only got a cutie pie because it would have been hard to finish more than this. - Mixed Berry Cutie Pie ($4): Mixed berry but I only tasted blueberries. Tasted like a classic pie. I liked the crumble. Overall, both pies were satisfying, but I enjoyed the brown butter pecan pie that I got last time more.

I had Petsi Pies bookmarked for a while, and it happened to be across from where I was, so I decided that today was the day I would cross it off my list.I got in 20 minutes before closing, but there is no seating inside, so I would not have been able to dine in anyway. It was empty at this time, and most of the pastries on display were gone. The pie of the month (chocolate cream pie) sounded yummy, but I wasn't feeling chocolate at the time, so I went with the pecan pie. I actually wanted the chocolate bourbon pecan pie, which is one of the signatures according to the website, but I didn't realize there was also a brown butter pecan pie. Saying only "pecan pie" netted me the brown butter one, so learn from my blunder if you are also going for the chocolate bourbon.However, I don't think it is accurate to call this a blunder, as I really enjoyed the brown butter one. The candied pecans had a delicious, sticky chew. The pie shell was crispy and buttery. The inside was sweet and gooey; the texture reminded me of Hong Kong egg tarts.This flavor is definitely decadent enough to satisfy a sweet craving, so I was only able to eat half. $9 for this size was reasonable, considering a slice of pie at a restaurant usually costs $12+. Overall, I am glad I picked up a pie, and I am excited to try more in the future, including the chocolate bourbon pecan pie that I originally wanted.

Great coffee, okay pies and ridiculously overpriced. I purchased a large and medium pie with a small coffee and it was over $50!

I need a mud pie in a pinch. This place blew our minds. The incredibly deliciousness of the pie as well as a treat they call a zesty. I will buy no other pies except there's. We love

Popular pie place in Somerville. Large 10" $35 (6-8 pax), Medium 8" $18 (4-5 pax), Small 5" $9 (1-2 pax). Queues can be long at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Good: - chocolate bourbon pecan Ok: - mixed berries

Oh my - possibly the best scones I've ever had. No hyperbole. I tried three different ones: currant, mixed berry, lemon. The right amount of crisp on the edges, right amount of butter, right amount of moisture. Petsi (pronounced peet-see) has got this all the way right. Six scones totaled $21.

Pick their delicious pies up at holiday time at Allendale farm. Love the apple and pecan pie- delicious but want to try their sweet potato pecan pie but have to get it from their store. BTW I bring them to holiday parties as well as pot lucks with my friends.

Decent pie place. Can be inconsistent with their pie quality. One year so so. The next year absolutely amazing! I really want to support local businesses but their customer service and lack of consistency means I’ll be looking elsewhere for pies. If you’re doing online orders make sure you show up the day scheduled. was deathly ill and forgot to grab my pies. Showed up four days later hoping for some mercy and was bluntly told that the pies were given away (understandable) but also that I would need to pay for my pies again and that if I had issues with paying again I should take this up with my credit card. I can understand this point of view. I said I would show up and I didn’t. The analogy I was given was I paid for a steak and did t show up. Sure. But it’s also a good way of torching a long term customer relationship. Which is what happened here. I debate between Petsi and Tatte and split my orders this year. I won’t be coming back to Petsi and will be going to Tatte for the future — which makes a fabulous apple pie.

*Update*: I contacted the owner about my missing Chocolate Bourbon Pecan pie and she was very responsive and ultimately delivered the pie to my home today. I am grateful for the customer service to make right the problem from this weekend. I would recommend against ordering around the holidays though because it seems hectic and unpredictable. My guess is that it's reliable to order online if it's not holiday season and I would consider going there again when it's not so hectic. The pies themselves are worth it especially this specific flavor. Also, I don't think 24 hrs for pickup is how they operate, I think you should pick up that day if you want to avoid surprises.

Holy cow the pecan pie is genuinely out of this world! The caramelization on top! Incredible flavor and texture. The buttermilk currant scone was one of the best I've ever had as well!
