Crave Pie Studio, a Duluth-based pie bakery owned and operated by Briana Carson, has opened a second location, this time in the Alpharetta City Center.
The 9-year-old Crave Pie is the latest tenant to debut in the new mixed-use development, joining more than 30 locally-owned retailers and restaurants.
Located along Commerce Street in the heart of the 26-acre Alpharetta City Center, Crave Pie offers a variety of five and 10-inch pies as well as quiche, pot pies, crusts, and pie accessories.
Crave Pie’s menu features several signature flavors such as Chocolate Chess, Maple Pecan and Dutch Apple, along with a changing selection of fruit pies, creams, and custards.
“I cherish being part of a community where people feel like they can make our pies a part of their traditions,” Carson said in a press statement, adding that she wants to create an intimate environment similar to the Duluth flagship.
“Pie is the ultimate comfort food, and Downtown Alpharetta is the perfect place to elevate pie back to its rightful place as America’s dessert.”
In addition to its daily offerings, Crave Pie plans to host pie baking classes at its shop in Alpharetta City Center.
Carson will also debut the studio’s “Happie Camper” food truck and mobile catering shop in the North Fulton market.
