Sour Cherry Crumble
Yum! good balance of sweet and tart, filling was delicious. Pair this with one of my favorite savory pies, chicken pot pie. Thanks Jenell. PS, your Burnaby staff are great! Excellent service.
Thank you so much Tim!! I will pass along your pat on the back ;)

Sour Cherry Crumble
This ranks up there with the best we have ordered, and we prefer it to the regular cherry pie. It was all gone in one seating with our family!
Nice! The best pies go the fastest ;) Thanks for the review C
Jen S said:
Love it
I’ve never met a crumble I didn’t like! This is delicious, tart with all the right flaky crumbly goodness, would recommend! And would buy again:)
Wait...you've been seeing other crumbles? Behind my back?! haha yup, I'm weird. Thanks for the review Jen :P

Sour Cherry Pie
Really delicious. Perfectly sweet but not too much. Would definitely order again.
Thanks Frances :)

Awesome
Ordered for a backyard picnic for my dad's birthday. It was awesome. Second only to The Pie Hole's classic cherry!
ooo only second place?! Well, as long as first place is also one of our pies, I will accept it ;P Thanks Darcie

Great balance of tart cherries and sweet crumble on top!
Thanks Gabriela :)

Greatest pie
Got rhubarb custard and sour cherry pie, both were gone in less than 3 days!!
Excellent! I mean, sort of...you know what I mean, haha. Thanks Michael :)
Jeanette said:
Delicious and a hit!
My family loved everything from the juicy sweet and sour cherries, to the buttery crumble, and flaky crust. The pie did not last and was an instant hit. I’ll be purchasing more, in addition to my other favourites like the pecan bailey tarts and more.
haha pre-planning impulse purchases. I'm pretty sure that makes you a true pie fan, Jeanette ;) Thanks for the review.
Eilene said:
Delicious
The sour cherry pie was delicious. My partner loved it. It is a little sweet for me. looking forward in trying other pies!
Thanks Eilene! We've got your favourite here somewhere ;)
Anna said:
Sour Cherry Crumble: SO SOOO GOOD
So glad we tried the sour cherry crumble! I’d been eyeing it for awhile now. The tartness of the cherries was what I hoped it would be (we like tart) - perfect combo of tart and sweet. I had bought one each for 2 other families, and they both loved their first (but not last) taste of Pie Hole pies!
Way to spread the joy, Anna! Thanks for the review :)

Great Pie's
From sweet to savoury we have not been disappointed once raspberry cream crumble chicken pot pie everything has been fantastic .we are so lucky to have a location so close to home
Thanks for all the support, Craig! Appreciate the review :)

Thanks Ling :)

Thanks Baraa :)
Mary Mackenzie said:
More cherries please!
The pie was delicious! I personally prefer a higher fruit to crust/topping ratio, so I found it a bit too rich. Not too rich that I didn’t slice off seconds though.
haha glad it warranted a second slice! Thanks for the review Mary :)
Lana Kolsanoff said:
Great Pie!
We loved our sour cherry pie. It’s actually my husbands favourite pie. My only issue is that this is the second time we’ve gotten it and have found a pit. It scares me a little to give to children when I serve it. But other than that the flavour was wonderful as always!
Just to be safe, you guys should not share it with anyone ;) In all seriousness, thank you for that feedback Lana. While some pits will always slip through, we will increase our vigilance going forward. Appreciate it!
Stacy Wang said:
Classic diner-style dessert
I’m giving it a 4-star only because it’s a bit too sweet for me, since I’m a tart pie person, but otherwise it is perfect! My hubby loves it and gives a 5-star!
In that case, I'm gonna average it to a 4.5 star rating ;P Thanks for taking the time Stacy. Appreciate it.
Sherel said:
I pretty much love all of Jenell's fruit pies, so this cherry one was no different. I enjoyed the mini version (from the 9-pack sampler) so I wanted to get the 5" next! If you enjoy her fruit pies, I recommend trying this one, if you haven't already.
Awesome. Thanks Sherel. Good advice ;)
Carol said:
Another winner!
Perfect balance of tart and sweet. All your pies are amazing. I rave about them to my co workers and they tend to look at me like I've lost my mind but then they go to your website.
...and then they realize THEY'RE the crazy ones for not trying our pies! Thanks for the support, Carol (and for setting your coworkers straight). Appreciate it :)
Fatima Brent said:
Sour cherry heaven!
My little one does not have a sweet tooth (I know!!!) but this sour cherry crumble was right up her alley! Thanks for a fabulous treat in these crazy times!
haha You are very welcome, Fatima. I'm glad we had a pie that fit the bill.
Cynthia said:
Sour Cherry Crumble
By far, one of my favourite pies! Love the combination of the tartness of the cherries and the sweetness of the crumble!
Yes! The Sour Cherry really pulls off the sweet/tart combo nicely. Thanks for the comments, Cynthia.

I thought I couldn't miss The Pie Hole more...now I do!
When people ask what's my favourite colour, number, hike...whatever, I think to myself, dude, I'm not 5 – I don't have a 'favourite' anything. But then I tried The Pie Hole Blueberry Goat Cheese Basil pie. Ok, suddenly I had a favourite pie. Then I tried the Raspberry Cream Crumble and well I guess THAT'S my favourite now. Or so I thought. It's been a rough day, so I pulled a 5" Sour Cherry Crumble out of my deep freeze to cheer myself up. You can see where this is going...now THAT'S my favourite.
Even a 5-year old can muster the decisiveness necessary to choose a favourite pie. Me? Nope. They're all my favourite. Wait, I've got it – Pie Hole crumbles are my favourite. For now.
Can't wait until you're open again so I can stuff my pie hole with new potential faves! I'm also eager to take your pie-making course :)
Thanks so much for the entertaining comment, Jason. It gave me a much needed laugh. I guess we've all got some child in us after all ;) I would love to have you at the next pie making class and, believe me, I want to get back to making pies as much as you want to get back to eating them. Let's hope we both get what want soon ;)

I had a slice of this pie. Then I had a 3 inch of this pie. Then I had a whole pie of this pie. If they ever make this pie in bathtub-size, that is what I will have next. Holy moly, what a pie; it is the most perfect blend of tart, juicy cherries and sweet, chewy topping. And the crust. Do we even need to talk about the crust? I've eaten a lot of pies in my life, some even bathtub-size, and none of them have had a crust that compares to that at The Pie Hole: so much butter, so little grease; how is that even possible?
lol Marvellous review, M R!! Funny story: the first Pie Hole location was actually a bathtub (100% untrue). I am so happy you found your pie soul mate in the Sour Cherry Crumble. While bathtub-size pies aren't in our plans, we will sell you as many 9-inch pies as we can ;)
Thanks so much for the support.

Slice vs. Mini Pie...
I’ve tried the Sour Cherry Crumble sliced and as a mini 3in pie. While they tasted very similar, I preferred the slice of pie over the mini pie. The crumble over powered the cherry filling in the mini pie and there was not enough sour cherries to balance the flavours. I can’t wait to eat a slice of pie again, as it’s the closest thing I can get to my Nana’s Sour Cherry Platz.
Thanks for the feedback, Erin. Any comparison of our pies to a grandma/nana's pies is a definite win ;) For our minis, we try to mimic the crust-to-filling ratio of their big brothers, but it is not always exact. We will try harder to strike the right balance. I am glad you liked the flavour all the same!

Great Pie
Such amazing Pie! The crust is just like butter! Looking forward to more pie!
Thanks Christine! It's true, that Double Butter Crust is no joke :)

Mini Pies Marvellous for Birthday Celebrations
We ordered mini fruit pies for a birthday party and it delighted everyone! They were tasty, seasonal and festive! So happy that there is a Pie Hole in Kits!!
Thanks for the review GemGirl! It's true, Assorted Minis are great for parties/gatherings/meetings. Good chance of having something for everyone. (we are also very happy to be in Kits!!)

Excellent pie!
The sour cherry crumble pie I ordered from you was fantastic! It was still warm when I picked it up. It was meant for dinner that night, but I’ll admit to sneaking a piece when I got home (my guests never suspected a thing). Great flavor, perfect crust. I will be ordering again soon.
Some people start eating it on the car ride home, so I'd say you did pretty well! Next time you have a dinner party, you know where to get dessert!

An excellent cherry pie
This one is a "home run" in the mouth. Five stars.
Out of the park for sure. We agree. Thanks, Frances!
