Magpies Softserve

Silver Lake, Highland Park, & Tarzana

You may have had ice cream cake in birthdays past, but have you had ice cream pie? There are always several vegan soft serve pie options in rotation at Magpies Softserve, including the OG fried pie flavor. It’s made from corn almond-flavored soft serve layered with fudge, vegan honeycomb, and topped with non-dairy whipped cream and fried candied cornflake streusel. Other flavor options include birthday cake, dark chocolate, and strawberry shortcake.

Winston Pies

Brentwood & West Hollywood

All of the fruit pies at Winston Pies, including the apple, blueberry, and fan-favorite, cherry pie, can be custom-made vegan in advance, but both locations will be offering several vegan pie options day of, too. The famous strawberry rhubarb will be back along with the monthly special—winter citrus crostata. Grab a slice, a 5-inch mini, or a full one, but get there early, they will sell out!

Always serving up deliciousness and ready to make you feel your best, the team at Cafe Gratitude offer two uplifting vegan pie varieties at their locations throughout the city.

Pick up a slice of savory pie at The Pie Hole. Flavors vary by location, but most carry their take on a veggie Thai curry made with coconut milk, cauliflower, carrots, peas, and potatoes—warm, hearty, and filling, all encompassed in a perfectly crispy and flakey crust.
