The menu at Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop features classics such as key lime and coconut cream, and new flavors, like their I-40 pie, which has pecans, chocolate and coconut.
A Tennessee-based bakery chain has chosen Fort Worth to be the home of its newest spot.
Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop, which is one of 25 locations scattered across the south, will have its grand opening at their 6120 Camp Bowie location Friday, with events kicking off at 10 a.m. There will be pie giveaways throughout the day, and the first 50 people in line will receive a card for free mini pie for a year.
20 percent of all sales during their grand opening will be given to 10-7 Outdoors, which plans hunting and fishing trips for children of police officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.
“My wife and I were both raised in Fort Worth, and when we talked to the franchise about possibly opening one, we said we would only do it if it was here in Fort Worth,” says Buttermilk Sky’s owner Scott Anderson. “We wanted to give back to an area and town that we knew well, and when we researched and saw that there were no other pie shops in the area, we thought it would be good to bring that home to Fort Worth.”
Their menu features classic and new flavors alike. There's key lime and coconut cream, but also new flavors, like their I-40 pie with pecans, chocolate, and coconut. All flavors are available in 9-inch, 4-inch, and 2-inch pies.
You can grab a slice of heaven in all your favorite flavors Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Friday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
