Legacy Pie -Wash Park

I'm a huge fan of the tart cherry pie - it's sweet and lightly tart but has such a good balance. The crust to filling ratio is also great. I'm looking forward to trying more of their things. Interior doesn't have seating, just purchase only.

Michigan is the home of the Montmorency cherry which has a delicious, firm, tart fruit--perfect for pies. "Great grandma" Katherine opened a roadside pie stand in 1929. Her children moved the pie company to Loveland in 1960 as Colorado Cherry Company. The next generation opened shops in Lyons and Estes Park. The great grandchildren expanded to Denver in 2020 as Legacy Pie Co.The original Montmorency cherry pie is still featured, although the menu has expanded to other fruits, cream, and savory pies plus cookies and scones. The pies come in Cutie (single serving), Mini (2-3 servings), and 10" sizes plus very generous hand pies.I'm a frequent flier at the original store on Tennyson Street, but I'd forgotten this location on Alameda Avenue had opened about a year ago until I saw the sign while visiting a neighboring business.This is a cute space with a large selection of the pies and other baked items. The bakery is in the back and everything is made fresh, from scratch. This business is also noted (in my mind) for delicious, bottled cherry juice. I noticed they have expanded this sideline to a number of varieties of cider.You can't beat the Montmorency cherry pie, in my view, but the many other offerings are also tasty. I do think these guys have a bit of a heavy hand with the crust--particularly on the fruit pies. The crust is well-made, but I'd prefer a bit thinner, lighter crust.Unlike Tennyson Street which offers drinks and has quite a bit of seating, this location is takeout only. This is a small shopping strip with only a few stores and a good-sized parking lot which is great since parking in the neighborhood is difficult.

The free cutie pie coupon incentivized me to come here and man...the pies are gooooood. The tart cherry is perfectly sweet and tart but it's not overly skewed towards sweet or overly tart. Just a nice mild balance.I also love their savory options, like the buffalo chicken hand pie. Also, they keep giving me coupons so unfortunately they keep taking my money!! Will certainly continue to be a customer.

I like this location of Legacy Pie better than the Tennyson location. It's about the same size as the other and yet, the selection at Wash Park appears to be slightly more than the Tennyson's selection (don't completely quote me on that; it might be that I went to the Tennyson location later in the morning. When I went here to the Wash Park location, it was at the top of the hour of 9am.) Anyway...the two savory hand pies I bought the past Friday were insanely good. I got me the Pork Green Chili hand pie and the Vegetarian Curry hand pie to precisely name them.) To perfect the flavors of both in a hand pie is simply hard to fathom. The way the ingredients were seasoned in each pie is impeccably done. I mean you have to taste them yourself to experience this goodness. The young man who assisted me was prompt and friendly. He had to quickly assist me and moved onto the next person as there was someone behind me.The store mostly has pastel colors to match what they produce and sell. Clean, organized, not too crowded with unnecessary stuff. Definitely my favorite pie place in the Denver area for sure. And conveniently located in the centralized location on Alameda and Logan. I will definitely go back and try the other savories.

Great looking pastry and execution! Chicken was seasoned perfectly, thick gravy on top that did not spill out everywhere or make the pastry soggy, and loved the herbs on top. Just picked up but staff were super friendly and informative. There is no seating inside so just keep in mind it is just to pick up/take out!

This spot just opened up on our way to school and we were excited for an after school snack. It is cute and clean on the inside but I was a little disappointed that there is no place to sit and share a pie! On to the pies- variety, flaky crust, savory or sweet- lots of options! We had the mixed berry and the bourbon apple- ooooh that topping was yummy! Both were delish!This is a local company so I always love to support a small business! They even have black bing cherry cider, which if you know- you Know, and if you don't, it's a Colorado think not to be missed! I used to have to drive to Estes Park to get that juice but now I can stop on the way to school, yay!

I ADORE YOUR PIES. Tonight I came and got a Chicken Pot Pie for dinner. I Love all the Chicken Inside and the Double Crusts ;-)But, Tonight, you needed More Sauce because it was rather dry. The spice in the pot pie was delicious, but because of it being so dry, is why I only gave 3 stars. Thank You.

I got an email a few days ago indicating they had Palisade Peach pies. I went by today. The full size 10 inch pie is $35, but mini's were $14 each. I got the Palisade Peach and the Tart Cherry mini's. My housemate ate 1/2 of the cherry pie. It had lots of cherries. I also got a blueberry packed scone for Sunday morning. Service was quick. The inside display counter and case was clean. They have 1 picnic table outside on the west side, but no inside seating.

The food is great. The staff is excellent, they actually remember you and greet you warmly when you come in. I get all my holiday pies there. Stop in and give them a try. You will be glad you did.

So happy they opened a location in wash park! This place has the most delicious cherry pie, but be sure to try their chicken pot pie as well.
