A good local bakery is judged on its pies and how fresh its baking is, so an early visit usually means a better choice. A pie should be hot through with a crisp base and well-seasoned filling. Smoothies and ice creams make a good pairing for a warm afternoon. Regulars often come back for the same pie, which is a sign the recipe holds up.
