The Small Town In New Jersey Boasting World-Famous Pie Is The Sweetest Day Trip Destination

It’s no secret that Hammonton is one of New Jersey’s most charming towns. The Blueberry Capital of the World is located in the Pinelands and offers great dining options and lots of recreation opportunities. If you’re looking for a cheerful spot to spend the day, head down Route 206 and find one of this adorable town’s most delicious destinations.

The Red Barn is a landmark that most New Jersey residents can spot from a mile away.

Part country store and part bakery, you can enjoy some gift shopping and a sweet treat all at once.

Penza's Pies at the Red Barn is part of the appeal of this cozy little shop. Each day, dozens of sweet and savory pies are made by hand.

Pick up a tiny fruit pie to give to a loved one as a gift...

... or grab dinner for the whole family when you bring home one of their famous tomato pies with homemade pesto.

Of course, since this is Hammonton, you'll find delicious blueberry pies here every day.

Outside of Penza's Pies, you'll find beautifully decorated tables, so if you'd like to dig in before you hit the road, go on. There's no better spot to enjoy a sunny day in the pines.

So, whether you're craving dessert or dinner - or both! - make the scenic drive to Penza's Pies at the Red Barn.
