Description

This old-fashioned diner, open 24/7, serves big breakfasts and simple comfort food all day long. After hours, it fills up with gays and goths. Soups, sandwiches (try the tuna-and-cheese melt), salads and decent burgers are the mainstays here, along with the pies - hence the name. The friendly and talkative staffers are happy to recommend their favorite pies - among the most popular are fruit, cream meringue and cheesecake.

    Low-key doesn't begin to describe this Upper Kirby institution, where the wait staff has seen it all and won't bat an eyelash if you come in from your job still in uniform or from that costume party still dressed as Catwoman. Although the pies are certainly the pièce de résistance of this 24-hour hangout, don't shy away from other menu items. With a constant stream of characters straight out of central casting, people-watching is as fun at 4 p.m. as it is at 4 a.m., and with menu items like the Hangover Omelet, late-nighters are a welcome addition to the eclectic scene. Best of all, since breakfast is served 'round the clock, it's never too early or too late to hit up the reliable eggs, buttery sandwiches or daily specials.

  • 2002 | Best Diner with Waitresses to Give You Perverted Dreams

    This may sound like we're bad-mouthing the fine, upstanding ladies who work their butts off at the House of Pies, but trust us, we're just giving 'em their props. Because, fellas, the 59 Diner may have waitresses you could take home to your parents, but the gals over at the House of Pies are the bad girls your parents told you to steer away from. But you can't, can you? You're drawn to their enigmatic bad-assedness. The tattoos. The dyed hair. The occasional sneer that makes you wonder if... More »
