The all-vegetarian menu lineup at Sweetie's Pie Diner
![]() |
Understandable excitement accompanied our August 5th news that Sweetie's Pie Diner (1822 Spring Garden St.), an all-vegetarian, all-pie eatery, would be opening October 1.� Now Stephanie Thaw and partner Kathy Tench are in the thick of menu development:� sweet and savory pies (think tarts, bread puddings, phyllo turnovers), soups and salads.
Organic and locally sourced dairy and eggs, as well as local produce, will fill out Thaw's shopping list.� The duo will run Sweetie's as a BYOB, practically requiring you to pick up� a warming, 8 percent ABV Weyerbacher Imperial Pumpkin Ale to pair with the root vegetable and mushroom potpie and a scoop-topped apple pie slice.
