With the holiday season quickly approaching, it’s time to start planning your Thanksgiving menu. One could argue that the best part of Thanksgiving is the food, and no Thanksgiving feast is complete without a festive pie. Whether you prefer classic pumpkin, pecan, or a fruit pie, any pie is welcome on our Thanksgiving table. Read on for JSG’s favorite spots for Thanksgiving pies.

Battleview Orchards harvests locally-grown fruit that is used to make fresh-baked pies in its Country Store. During the fall season, it serves special flavors such as apple cranberry, apple berry delight, pecan, pumpkin, and sweet potato. The team typically accepts orders up until the Sunday before Thanksgiving, so make sure you call ahead to reserve your pie.
Delicious Orchards | 320 Route 34 South, Colts Neck
Delicious Orchards is a Monmouth County staple and one of our go-to spots for Thanksgiving pies and treats. Its preservative-free pies are made daily from scratch and sold fresh. While you can’t go wrong with any of its pies, we especially love its pumpkin pie, apple pie, and pecan pie—which are guaranteed to be available the week of Thanksgiving.

If pies are still available on Thanksgiving morning, they will be open from 7:00 AM until sold out.
