The local bakery is an institution in our country; a place where communities often gather, socialize, and pick out the perfect pie to take home to their families. Kentucky has many of these delightful places, each one specializing in something different. If you’re in the mood for pie, then you simply must head to Missy’s Pies in Lexington. The famous pies at this Kentucky bakery are almost too good to be true, and if you’ve never enjoyed a slice, it’s time to decide on a favorite.

If you live in or near Lexington, or even if you've ever passed through the city, chances are you've heard of Ramsey's Diner. This local favorite restaurant opened in 1989 and its incredibly delicious, comfort food menu was so popular that they soon ran out of oven space for their pies.

Thus, Missy's was created. Owner Rob Ramsey helped his Lead Prep Cook, Missy, start a pie bakery that would supply the restaurant, as well as anyone else who wanted to purchase the pies. While Missy has since moved away, her bakery remains and is as delicious as ever.

Several types of pies are made daily, and each one is more scrumptious than the next. They are made by hand, from scratch, and you can taste the love in every sweet bite.
