Maryland does a lot of things well, and homemade pie belongs near the top of that list. From tiny bakeries on the Eastern Shore to orchards up in the mountains, there are shops all over the state turning fresh fruit into something worth a special trip.
Some bake right in front of you, others fill their cases with pies made from apples grown just outside the door. If you love a flaky crust and fruit filling that actually tastes like fruit, this list is for you.
Here are seven Maryland pie spots that get it right.
1. The Ugly Pie, Salisbury, MD

Do not let the name fool you. This petite Salisbury bakery specializes in a wide variety of homemade pies and tarts, and the goodies here are clearly made from scratch.
Fruit fans have plenty to choose from, including mini berry pies that pack a lot of flavor into a small package. The key lime pie is a standout, and if you want to go all in, there is even a key lime pie milkshake.
Beyond the fruit lineup, the case fills up with chocolate pies, sweet potato biscuits, cookie slabs, and savory options like shepherd’s pie. It is a quick-stop kind of place with coffee and breakfast items too.
You will find The Ugly Pie at 829 E William St. It is open Monday 10 AM to 2 PM, Tuesday through Friday 10 AM to 6 PM, and Saturday 10 AM to 4 PM, with Sunday closed. Free parking makes the visit easy.
2. Mandala Pies, Berlin, MD

Creative takes on classic pie are the whole point at this Berlin bakery. Think apple, banana, key lime, and cookie-crusted creations sitting alongside cookies, cinnamon rolls, and quiches.
The apple pie gets a lot of attention here, and one clever version tops the fruit with cinnamon buns instead of a traditional crust. Seasonal picks like peach lemon show up when the fruit is right, and the banana cloud and honey pumpkin round out the sweet side.
Everything is baked fresh, sometimes right in front of you, which is part of the fun of a small local shop. Prices span a wide range depending on whether you want a single treat or a full pie.
Find Mandala Pies at 15 Williams St in the walkable heart of Berlin. Hours run Monday 11 AM to 4 PM, Wednesday through Saturday 11 AM to 6 PM, and Sunday 9 AM to 2 PM.
Tuesday is closed, and there is no delivery, so plan to stop in.
3. Pie Lovers, Sykesville, MD

Born from a decade of selling at Main Street farmer markets, Pie Lovers grew into a brick-and-mortar shop that keeps that hands-on tradition going. The result is a case full of handcrafted pies with a crust people specifically call out.
Fruit lovers can reach for a classic cherry pie or the mixed-berry Jumbleberry, while the menu also stretches into pecan, cream pies, savory options, alfajores, and empanadas. It is a wider spread than most pie shops attempt.
The crust holds up whether it is wrapped around a fruit filling or a savory empanada, which says a lot about the baking here. Coffee is available, and most visits are quick.
The shop sits at 1213 Liberty Rd, Ste D. Hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10 AM to 8 PM and Sunday 10 AM to 6 PM, with Monday closed.
There is a free parking lot out front.
4. Catoctin Mountain Orchard, Thurmont, MD

Up near the mountains in Thurmont, this family-run farm market pairs pick-your-own fruit with a bakery that puts that fruit to good use. It is the kind of stop that rewards a scenic drive out of the city.
Orchard-fresh fillings are the draw, with honeycrisp apple, blackberry, and blueberry pies all making the rounds. You can grab them fresh or take a frozen one home to bake later.
The shelves also carry preserves, apple butter, honey, cheeses, and apple cider donuts, so you rarely leave with just one thing. Great produce and flowers round out the selection.
You will find it at 15036 N Franklinville Rd, open daily from 9 AM to 5 PM. Saturday afternoons get busy, so a weekday morning is the calmest time to browse.
Parking is free and on site.
5. Milburn Orchards, Elkton, MD

Family owned and rooted in its own orchard, Milburn Orchards in Elkton turns homegrown fruit into pies that keep people coming back. The apple pie is the headliner and pairs naturally with a cup of warm apple cider.
Peach praline pie is another reason to stop, adding a little something extra to the fruit lineup. The variety here goes beyond pie into cider donuts, fudge, jellies, and preserves, plus fresh fruit straight from the trees.
Because everything is made from orchard fruit, the fillings taste like the season they came from. It is a well-rounded farm stop where dessert and grocery shopping happen in one trip.
The market is located at 1495 Appleton Rd. Hours are Tuesday through Saturday 8 AM to 6 PM and Sunday 9 AM to 5 PM, with Monday closed. On-site parking is free.
6. Baugher’s Fruit Market & Bakery, Westminster, MD

Part of the Baugher’s farm and orchard operation, this Westminster market stocks a little of everything, and the pie case is a big part of the appeal. Freshly made fruit pies share space with cakes, jams, jellies, and homemade ice cream.
Peach cobbler and blackberry pie are popular picks, and the apple options are plentiful thanks to the farm’s own orchards. Prices stay reasonable, which makes it easy to grab a pie and still fill your cart with fruit and vegetables.
You can shop fresh produce, flowers, honey, and even seasonal greenery all in the same visit. It functions as both a bakery and a full farm market.
Baugher’s sits at 289 W Main St and stays open daily from 8 AM to 8 PM. Weekends draw the biggest crowds, while Monday and Tuesday evenings tend to be the quietest.
7. B-More Pies and Sweets, Baltimore, MD

Local art on red walls and counter seating give this Baltimore shop a personality all its own. Set on O’Donnell St in Canton, it bakes both dessert pies and hearty entree-style creations.
Fruit fans have real options here, from double crust blueberry to strawberry rhubarb, roasted apple, and a vegan Apple Crumb. The roasted apple in particular has a devoted following.
Baltimore itself shows up on the menu too, with the Baltimore Bomb and a Berger Cookie pie slice nodding to local flavors. Savory picks like chicken pot pie make it easy to grab lunch and dessert in one stop.
The shop is at 2839 O’Donnell St, open Tuesday and Wednesday 10 AM to 6 PM, Thursday through Saturday 10 AM to 8 PM, and Sunday 10 AM to 6 PM, with Monday closed. Expect free street parking, coffee, and dine-in seating.
