Feast Your Eyes on The Beautiful Single-Serving Pies From This New Jersey Bakery

LilliPies Bakery in Princeton may just serve the best pies in New Jersey - and you can try several of these bite-sized seasonal treats.

Princeton is one of my favorite towns in New Jersey, and this famous college town has built itself a reputation as the top spot for small-batch food in the state. You can find a beloved farmer's market, as well as countless independent businesses selling anything you could want. That extends to what might be the best bakery in New Jersey, LilliPies Bakery in a shopping strip less than two miles from the gates to Princeton University. What sets this bakery apart? Their unique single-serving pies, solving the dilemma we all face when we walk into a bakery - everything looks so good, so what do we order? At this charming Princeton newcomer, the answer might just be - one of everything, please!

Tucked away from the Princeton city center, Lillipies Bakery has brought people from all around to sample its innovative menu of fresh-baked treats. The menu here changes seasonally, so visiting is a regular tradition for many.

The extensive menu here is just part of the appeal - the friendly service and neighborhood vibe go a long way to helping spread the word about this unique bakery.

The bakery has an impressive selection of savory and breakfast treats, including sandwiches and a delicious selection of seasonal flatbreads. It's easy to make a meal here - but save room for dessert.

The signature at Lillipies are their individual single-serving pies. These treats, a little bigger than a muffin, come in a fantastic seasonal variety and offer you the chance to try several pie flavors at every visit instead of committing to a full-size version.

Lillipies makes great use of seasonal produce, so you'll be able to taste some of the best farm-fresh pies in the state without having to share it - but if you want to share it, get enough for the whole crew!
