RaisaB Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I am just not an apple pie kind of gal. I have been asked to bring one for thanksgiving.. where can I find a good one?? Help! I know you are probably in the District, but Mom's Apple Pie Company in Herndon makes great pies. It is all they do. I don't know if they sell at any of the farmer's markets but you may want to call them. They are seriously good. Moms Apple Pie Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I second the Mom's recommendation, particularly if you get the crumb-topped versions, and Potomac Vegetable Farms on Route 7 carries the pies (assuming they're still open this late in the year.) Otherwise, they've got locations on Van Buren St. in Herndon, and on Sterling Blvd off Route 28, where the pies are actually made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monavano Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 In the mail today, I recieved "The Consumer's Eye" local flyer. On the back there was an add for Mom's Apple Pie Company in Occoquan. They have 30+ pies and claim to grown thier own ingredients on a farm in Loudon County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannah Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Haven't tried the Mom's pumpkin pie, but both the apple and cherry are worth the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Leaver Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I have to confirm the Mom's Apple Pie Co. recommendations. I am acquaintences with one of the family members who own the business. Yes, they do grow their produce on their own farm near the river in Leesburg. Very nice family and great pies. The fruit pies get a great balance of sweet to tart. They were featured recently on the Food Network show with Paula Deen's sons. Can't say much about that TV show, but the pies are something special. And local is always a plus.

ktmoomau Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Stopped in Friday after court because we were going to see friends this weekend and I thought pie would be a good hostess gift. I got a raspberry pie for them, that we got pieces of, it was delicious. I picked up a lemon chess pie for us, that I also thought was good, and I had raspberry peach crumble on the way back which had great flavor, but could have been a bit crisper, but wasn't bad by any means. I have been out in Loudoun courts more and more so it's nice to find little places not far from the courthouse to stop into for a quick lunch or a snack on way back to the office.

Al Dente Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 ...I had raspberry peach crumble on the way back which had great flavor, but could have been a bit crisper, but wasn't bad by any means. My daughter and I dropped by here a few weeks ago and got this pie. Wow. It was one of the best pies I've ever had. HOWEVER, the lemon meringue I bought was terrible. The lemon curd and pie crust itself was great, but the meringue was way past its prime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I am VERY picky about meringue, so I decided to not go down that road. I would rather just make a meringue pie if it isn't verified as really good. I think the peach raspberry would have been amazing fresh out of the oven, I think it was just a little soggy from sitting. If I hadn't been in such a hurry to eat it, I could have popped it i the toaster oven at work which probably would have been really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
