A new birthday favorite.
It sounds crazy, but after thirty-four years of marriage I didn’t know that lemon meringue was my wife’s favorite pie. I decided to get one for her birthday, so the pressure was on to find a good one. I’d never tried The Pie Hole before so took a chance and ordered one (actually two). They could not have been more delicious; large, heavy, and a wonderful creamy consistency. They are a new birthday favorite.

Best crust we have ever had!
Thanks so much for the review :)

Superb Apple and Lemon Meringue Pies!
I brought an apple pie and a lemon meringue pie to a friend’s get together yesterday and both were a hit! The crusts were flaky and spices just right in the apple pie. The lemon meringue was a lemon curd consistency and very rich - though that appealed to those of us in the group with a sweet tooth. Overall, a huge success.
Another successful get together for the books! Thanks so much for the review Valerie :)
Tina Leung said:
Very tasty
We had the apple pie and lemon meringue pie and both were very tasty! Lemon was tart, and apple pie had the right sweetness.
Thanks for the two thumbs up Tina :)

Lemony Greatness
This is one of our go to pies for a staff birthday. She loves lemon meringue - too bad her birthday is only once a year.
Just keep 'forgetting' when her birthday is and buying the pie in case :P Thanks Andrew
Nicholas Florens said:
Wonderful Lemon Meringue pie
The taste was wonderful, and we were pleasantly surprised to see how much curd we got in the pie. The pick up process was very easy, and was ready on time. We will definitely order again!
Perfect! Thanks so much Nicholas :)

Nice Pie
We always like their sweet pies.This Lemon Meringue Pie is as good as usual!
Thanks Min! Glad you liked it :)
Jen S said:
Not as good as moms
Firstly, crust is always amazing, flaky and buttery! Meringue delish! But curd was slightly too sweet and not enough tart…don’t get me wrong, I finished it and had more but….second to moms.
We will always be happy with coming second to mom's ;) Thanks for the review Jen.

So so so so good
This was beyond delicious. So so so so good - we did not share but ate it all between two over three days. Kept it in fridge so we enjoyed it ice cold. Pacing ourselves but this will be a regular re-order treat item for us.
'Not sharing' is eating it alone...at midnight...hiding under your bed. You shared plenty, you generous, benevolent soul you. Now reward yourself with an under-the-bed-alone pie ;P

The Best LMP
The BEST. Real lemon flavour with the lightest, fluffiest meringue. I was still thinking about it two days later, which is a good sign.
You know, we never call it 'LMP' in the bakery. You may have started a new kitchen trend ;) Thanks for the review Gan.

Luscious Lemon Pie
Delicious lemon meringue pie. The lemon was tart but sweet. The meringue was light and sugary. The layers were perfectly proportioned. The perfect dessert for a birthday party! Thank you
Yay birthday pie! Thanks so much Deborah :)

Tart & lemony!
The lemon meringue pie has a delish blend of tart and sweet. Purchased this for dessert when family was visiting and it was a huge hit. So happy I discovered The Pie Hole!
Excellent! Get ready for more family visits ;) Thanks Jill
EB said:
Sweet lemon for miles
The lemon curd was extraordinary. A little sweeter than I usually prefer, but too much sweet lemon is a wonderful thing! It barely lasted more than a day.
That's the trouble with tasty pies. They never last long enough ;) Thanks for the review EB

Absolutely Delicious
The perfect Lemon Meringue pie for a 50th birthday part. A huge hit!
Yay! Happy belated to the 50-plusser. Thanks Trevor :)
Sarah said:
Lemon meringue
Very natural, fresh-tasting ingredients, and bursting with delicious sweet-tart lemon flavour, but the texture felt a bit off- slightly grainy.
Thanks for the even feedback, Sarah. It is much appreciated :)
Gloria Chan said:
Best lemon meringue pie ever
For the smoothest and tangiest lemon curd topped with fluffy meringue and set upon a buttery flaky crust, you can't go wrong with this lemon meringue pie!
Thanks so much Gloria!
Lori S said:
Tarte and Sweet!
This pie… was GORGEOUS and so incredibly delicious. It’s very tarte and the meringue is very sweet. It was almost too sweet. The crust as usual was as good as the lemon goo inside!
Thanks Lori! Glad you liked it :)
Basilio Bagnato said:
A little tart
Hello, our family absolutely loves your pies. This was the 4th lemon meringue we’ve purchased, this time however, it was a little too tart, border lining on sour. Unfortunately, it wasn’t eaten :-( Nonetheless, we’ll be back. Cheers.
Darn! Sorry to hear that one was too tart for you guys. Thanks for not giving up on us, Basilio :)

Easy ordering online!!
I ordered a lemon meringue pie for my moms birthday online. It was super easy and user friendly. The next day I realized I ordered it for the wrong pick up date. I followed the instructions and sent an email and someone answered back quickly and the date was changed with out any issues
Excellent! Glad it was all so smooth. Thanks for the review Tammy :)

Rebecca Thiel said:
Lemon Meringue Heaven!
I’m very picky about pies. I usually bake my own, but have found that The Pie Hole does as well (if not better) than my homemade efforts. This is NOT a super sweet, mealy crusted grocery store pie. They are absolutely delicious.
Thank you so much for saying so, Rebecca! We do try to bring the quality that some store-bought pies might be lacking. Appreciate the appreciation :P
Giovanni Perri said:
Lemon Meringue Pie
Great quality as always. One of the best lemon meringue pies ive ever had.
Awesome! Thanks for the review, Giovanni :)
Agnes Khong said:
Delicious Pies!
I ordered the Lemon Meringue Pie and the Blue Hawaiian Pie and both were delicious! Both were ready when I went to pick them up and were well packaged.
That's what I like to hear! Thanks so much for the review, Agnes :)

Favourite Birthday “Pie”
Oh yum! Delicious. Right balance of sweet and tart. Lemon custard scrumptious! Can’t wait for another occasion.
Celebrate life, my friend. Then every day can be a pie-worthy day ;) Thanks for the review, Lois.

Amazing! Favourite pie do far.
Hopefully the next one is even better! Thanks Kristiane :)
Sheila Nim said:
lemon meringue pie
bought this for boyfriend's birthday as this was his fav pie growing up. you can really tell they used real lemons for the curd and the crust reminded me of croissants. im leaving out a star because i found it a tad too sweet that it sometimes overpowers the lemon taste.
Excellent! Happy birthday to him and thanks :)
Susan Cohene said:
Yummy lemon meringue
Thanks for the review, Susan :)
Darryl Parsons said:
Lemon Meringue Pie
The crust was not tender and flaky like all of the previous pies we have ordered. Not sure why but the crust was tough. Still one of my favorite pies at the Pie Hole.
Crust investigation launched. Thanks for the props though, Darryl :)
Patty Quan said:
Lemon Meringue
The crust was good as usual & the lemon filling was nice and tart. There was a lot of meringue which I liked but it was a bit too sweet for me.
Thanks Patty :)
Taigi Maeda said:
Yum
Really, what else needs to be said.
Enjoyed the pies that I purchased. (some were frozen and haven't been consumed yet). Looking forward to baking some at home, and having them for a simple meal.
Thanks Taigi :) Hope you like the frozen pies!

Lemon Meringue Pie
Absolutely the BEST Lemon Meringue pie! My husband’s all time favourite dessert pie !!!
Thanks Karin! Always so happy to bring people their faves :)
Jasmine Gonzales said:
Best lemon meringue pie!
Loved the tartness of the lemon curd! It was still pretty good even the next few days. Definitely paired well with a nice cup of tea! I'll be definitely getting another one in the future :)
At the risk of sounding like I wear lace gloves while I stroll through the garden with my parasol...a slice of pie and a nice cup of tea is simply delightful ;) Thanks so much Jasmine.
Laura Deacon said:
Bought the lemon meringue pie. Giving it 4 stars as the instructions were not clear on whether the pie needed to be refrigerated or frozen. I had it in the refrigerator and it was not nearly thick enough, which is why I’m giving it 4 stars. Froze it today and the consistency of the meringue and lemon was much better. Overall a little disappointed though.
Hm The Lemon Meringue definitely does not need to be stored in the freezer (or it shouldn't anyway!). Thanks for the feedback, Laura. I think a meringue refresher may be in order ;)
Melissa said:
Everything I wanted a lemon meringue pie to be
The meringue is so tall, and the lemon curd filling was so tart, not too sweet, perfect smooth texture and delicious. It was also very impressive looking!
That's what I like to hear! Thanks so much for the review, Melissa :)
Tom Moore said:
Best Lemon Meringue Pie ever…Don’t Tell My Mom!!
By far the best Lemon Meringue pie we’ve ever had. Even Grampa thought it was better than Granma’s. But he said don’t tell her that! This was our first pie from Pie Hole. Now we can’t wait to work our way through all their other pies. The lemon filling was good and tart , not all sugar look some.
Smart Grampa! Keep it hush hush and the good pies will keep coming from both sides ;) Thanks Tom
Melissa said:
Best lemon meringue pie
The crust has a savoury quality that perfectly matches the tart lemon curd and the sticky and sweet meringue; Tastes like toasted marshmallow. Can’t wait to try more.
Thanks for the review, Melissa. Glad you liked it :)
Michael Iwanowskyj said:
delicious filling and meringue
pie was delicious, the meringue was like marshmallow! however the crust was a little underbaked but overall great.
Sorry about the crust, Michael. Glad you liked it otherwise though :)
Maria Nguyen said:
Delicious!
The lemon meringue is sooo good but even for someone that loves lemon I would love a slightly thicker crust or a little smaller lemon curd section. Or perhaps just a slightly less tart/sour curd. It just felt slightly unbalanced/sour for my taste.
Glad you liked it, Maria! Very much appreciate the feedback :)
Rachel Macpherson said:
1000% the best service and pies ever
I'll never stray from the pie hold now. The lemon mirangue and key lime are so fresh and tarte tasting I can't stop sharing with my friends with how good they are. Keep it up!
'The pie hold'. LOVE IT! Thanks so much, Rachel :)
Rebecca Thiel said:
Sublime lemon meringue
This easily tastes as good as a homemade pie. I’m really picky about quality and taste. The Pie Hole comes through 100%.
Yuss! Home pie for the win! Thanks Rebecca :)
Chuck L said:
Wow!
Talk about Lemon-Y !! Easily blows away any of the Diner style lemon meringues I've eaten over the decades, not to mention the ones 'Mom' used to make from a pre-mixed powder filling (though as a kid dessert was dessert!). This one is chock full of flavour with a lovely and Rich meringue topping. A small slice more than satisfies the taste buds, meaning it lasts longer. Win-Win !
Absolutely! Great taste and more the merrier :) Thanks Charles.
Joy Galang said:
I loved this pie!
I tried this pie for a change and I wasn’t disappointed! :)
Change is good! Thanks Joy :)

Pie - The Perfect way to Celebrate
I recently took the leap from renter to home owner with my husband, and I won’t lie, we went through 2 of the hardest, most stressful days we’ve ever experienced together during our move. Between the money, the packing, the cleaning, and of course even more money, we were barely alive at the end. But then there was a ray of light in the darkness; a glorious rebirth of the soul for all the world to see. There was pie. Lemon meringue on a godly level such that we saw the world anew. Would absolutely order again, whether in much need of a pick-me-up, or during the happy times when good can become great. 10/10.
Aw wow! Firstly, congrats on the house and good luck! Secondly, I am thrilled you found our Lemon Meringue so 'moving' *hyuk*. Happy we could give you guys a little stress release!
Maureen said:
Cake is overrated
Ordered this for a birthday and it was delicious! If you like tart sweets, you’ll love it. Came in a cute box with a see through window as well which I thought was a nice touch.
Amen! Did you know that cake is 'boring' spelled backwards? Don't test it. Just trust me. Thanks Maureen :)
Paul Roche said:
Yummy
Lemon 🍋 Meringue was delicious!
Thanks Paul! Appreciate the comment :)
Jessica Hyde said:
Too good!
Absolutely delicious Lemon merengue pie. Had to try hard to resist not eating it all in one day.
Wait, you resisted 'not' eating it all at once?...You totally just opened your mouth and smashed the pie into your face, didn't you? I 100% support your decision and your polite review ;P Thanks Jessica.

Natalie M said:
Attentive, friendly staff!
I want to give a shout out to fast, friendly staff who greeted me cheerfully, were properly social distanced, and wearing their masks.
Thanks for making the pie pick up painless and pleasant. Even in working conditions that are less then easy, they are doing a speedy, great job. Oh, and the pie was delicious!
Wow! They will definitely be hearing about this one ;) Thanks so much for the appreciation, Natalie!
Lily Tan said:
Just the right amount of sweetness and yumm!
The lemon meringue pie was superb and my best friend's family loved it! I'll be going back to get the key lime pie for Christmas.
lol I really hope your own family reads this review and is like, 'Hey!!...your FRIEND'S family?! What the heck, Lily!!' Better make that right ;) Thanks a bunch, Lily!

Delicious and Nostalgic
a beautiful pie that was perfect for a 1950s themed dinner. A smidge too sweet, but delicious nonetheless. :)
Noted, Ivy ;) Glad it worked for the dinner theme! Thanks for the review.
Deane Susi said:
Lemon Meringue Pie a Hit!
Jenell, your baking never disappoints! We had this one and the Chickpea Morrocan for dinner Friday night both were a big bit! Thank you for all you and the team do to keep the pies going!
Yes! Love it when the dinner/dessert combo delivers the one-two punch! Thanks for the support, Deane :)
Adele Esnault-Oka said:
Best Lemon Meringue
This was the first pie we ever tried at Pie Hole and now we are there every weekend! We’ve ordered it several times and we are never disappointed. Fresh and bright lemon flavor and sweet creamy meringue.
That's wonderful to hear, Adele! Thanks so much for the review :)
Sharon M said:
Best Pie!!
The lemon meringue pie from The Pie Hole was fantastic! Creamy and rich and lemony all in one bite! Love the sweetness and tart all rolled into one.
For sure! One of the best examples of a pie being straightforward and extremely impactful! Thanks Sharon :)
Keith Parker said:
Lemon yum!
Tried the lemon meringue pie. Great!

Kirby said:
Lucious Lemon
The lemon meringue is a fave. It’s light and tangy. Only improvement would be making the meringue and the filling a little less sweet.
Thanks for the review Kirby :)

Nothing like a good classic, for sure! Thanks Bianca.

Angie Leung said:
Lemon meringue pie
I found the lemon filling tart where as my husband who loves sour flavors found the overall pie too sweet for him. After a few days when the lemon flavor mellowed out I found the flavor just right for me
Glad it settled into your preferred zone in the end :)Thanks Angie.

Lemon Meringue Pie
It was a 5 inch lemon Meringue pie. The meringue is a bit too stiff, and the filling is very sweet.
Thanks for the feedback, Shujin. We will keep it in mind :)
