Megan Wilkes and Mary Gauntt took the city's pie game to a new level when they set up shop in a Bishop Arts 1930s bungalow in 2012. And now, with three ouposts (Bishop Arts, Deep Ellum and McKinney) under their belts, folks don't have to go far to get their fix. Their signature pick is the Smooth Operator, a French silk chocolate pie with a pretzel crust. Other must-haves include red velvet chess and a deep-dish caramel apple pie with a crispy cinnamon streusel topping. Take it to-go or have a seat in the shop where you can enjoy a slice with ice cream and coffee.

EXPERT TIPS BY: Ilene Jacobs
Dallas Local Expert

Bakeries: "Find two parking lots just west of Bishop on Melba on the north and south sides of the street with ample parking. There's also a 15-minute pie pickup spot next to the shop."
Dessert: "Go early to avoid the lines, or try their other location in McKinney."

Best for Bakeries Because: Emporium Pies offers unique pie flavors that you won't see anywhere else.
Best for Dessert Because: Emporium has taken the humbleness out of pies and made them into something seriously sublime.
