In Short
Family owned and operated since 1967, this place knows a thing or two about pie. Though their business has grown a bit over the years, their classic recipes haven't changed. From comfort food favorites like pumpkin and apple to seasonal favorites like peach cream and blackberry cream, Flying Saucer has something for every palate. Strawberry cream, their most popular pie, is available year round to remind you to always save room for dessert.

I moved to Houston over a year ago, and live in Oak Forest. I had been hearing nothing but great things about FSPC, and I finally got to try them out last week (May 2008). I'm very keen on supporting local restaurants and bakeries, and again, FSPC is just a few min from my house. I wanted to like it. Heck, I wanted to LOVE it. But it's completely overrated. We got chocolate and banana creme. Perhaps these were bad choices. But the fillings (which were your garden variety, OK filings, nothing spectacular) weren't really the problem. The crust wasn't good. In fact, I got some of that hard to describe, machine-made, old, bad-shortening taste from it, which is the kiss of death for all pies, great or small. If you don't like a filling, fine, you can change that, but if the crust is substandard, where can you go? Another pie company. EXTREMELY disappointed to have to pan this place. But be advised, waiting in a line in the middle of the 'hood that reaches outside in the rain, as I've seen people do during the holidays, is not time well spent.

I found this place about 15 years ago when I worked in the area and it turned me into a pie lover. The place is nothing to look at but the pies are really good. I frequently deliver them to clients because the presentation is kinda cool and they're big and always fresh and tasty. I love the strawberry pies the best.
