Whether it’s the holiday season or just any old time, pies in Kansas are a wonderful treat. We’ve got lots of scrumptious places to pick up whatever flavor you’re craving, whether it’s pecan, apple, cherry, or something less traditional. One of our favorite spots for Sunflower States desserts is the delightful Ladybird Diner. This creative eatery in Lawrence combines the comfort of an old-fashioned diner with the off-the-wall recipes you’d expect from a modern cafe. It’s absolutely wonderful, and the pie selection is amazing!

Ladybird Diner is the type of spot that feels incredibly timeless, but it actually just opened up in 2014.

The patio seating is a delight on a warm day, and there's plenty of indoor seating, too.
The retro styling and coziness you'll find here makes it seem like it's been a Kansas staple for decades.

One thing you've got to make sure to do is leave room for dessert. The Ladybird Diner's ever-rotating selection of pies is absolutely legendary.
