Thanksgiving Pie Orders North of Boston, 2026

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, and the pie deadlines are already starting to land. The earliest we found closes Sunday, November 15. Most of the bakeries north of Boston that take pre-orders stop accepting them between November 15 and 22, then hand everything over on Tuesday the 24th or Wednesday the 25th, because nearly all of them are closed on the holiday itself.

This is a plain compile of what each business has posted for 2026, sorted by deadline. We have not tasted any of it and we are not ranking anything. Where a price or deadline wasn’t posted, we say so.

The deadline list

Deadlines for Daniella’s Dolce in Danvers, Honeycomb in Hamilton, Twist Bakery in Burlington and Kane’s Donuts in Saugus weren’t posted where we looked. They are covered further down.

North Shore and Cape Ann

A&J King Bakery, Salem. The Salem bakery says to place Thanksgiving orders by Friday, November 20. All holiday pre-orders are picked up at the production bakery at 139 Boston Street on the Salem-Peabody line, not at the downtown cafe on Central Street. Pickup is Tuesday 11/24 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. or Wednesday 11/25 from 7 a.m. to noon. The pies named on the page are bourbon pecan and a pumpkin coffee cream pie, plus an apple tart. No prices are posted on the pages we read. The bakery states that orders can’t be changed, cancelled or refunded after the cutoff, and the pickup day can’t be switched, so choose carefully. It is closed Thursday 11/26 and Friday 11/27.

Sandpiper Bakery, Ipswich. Pre-orders close Thursday, November 19 at the end of the business day (3 p.m.). Everything is ready Wednesday, November 25 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 29 North Main Street, and there is no Thanksgiving Day pickup. Northshore Magazine lists apple, bourbon pecan, triple berry and pumpkin pies. Phone: 978-879-4136.

Appleton Farms, Ipswich. The Trustees’ farm store takes pre-orders online through November 17. Pickup is at the Farm Store, 209 County Road, on Tuesday 11/24 from noon to 5 p.m. or Wednesday 11/25 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Orders not collected by 3 p.m. on the 25th are donated. The listed pre-order items include an apple crumble pie and a pumpkin and kabocha meringue pie, plus a Thanksgiving pot pie and a cheese board kit. The store is closed November 26 and 27.

Cake Ann, Gloucester. Orders close Sunday, November 22, and it’s pickup only at 63 Rogers Street, with the day chosen at checkout. The bakery posts the most prices of anyone on this list: an 8-inch pie is $24 (pumpkin, apple crumble, apple double crust, chocolate cream, key lime or bourbon pecan), a mini pies box is $26, a pumpkin cheesecake is $50, a turkey cake is $58, a pumpkin roll called Buche de Thanksgiving is $40, and a dozen dinner rolls are listed from $6 for a half dozen. Everyday bakes there need two days’ notice. Phone: (978) 865-4100.

Source Bakery, Gloucester. Pickup for all Thanksgiving pre-orders is Wednesday, November 25 between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. at 3 Duncan Street. The order page prints the cutoff as “Saturday, 11/22 at 12 PM.” November 22 this year is a Sunday, so that line looks like a leftover from last year’s page. Call before you assume. Northshore Magazine lists apple pie, pumpkin pecan pie and cheddar and leek biscuits.

The Proper Shoppe, Newburyport. Northshore Magazine reports pre-orders are due November 15, with nine-inch and mini pies, a 24-piece dessert platter and apple rose pastries. The bakery’s own custom-order page says it can’t take any more custom orders this year, but you can still order from its Thanksgiving menu. We couldn’t read the menu, so prices and pickup times aren’t confirmed. The shop is at 38 Washington Street.

Cider Hill Farm, Amesbury. The farm’s online Thanksgiving store lists pickup on Monday 11/23, Tuesday 11/24 or Wednesday 11/25, and says it is closed Thanksgiving Day. Items on its Pies & Desserts page run from $4.25 to $24.95, with many at $18.50. Northshore Magazine’s rundown includes bumbleberry crumb, lattice top, burgundy and mincemeat pies, no-sugar and gluten-free versions, and cider donut bread pudding. The farm is at 45 Fern Avenue.

Daniella’s Dolce, Danvers. The newer Italian pastry shop at 74 Holten Street, from the North Shore Hospitality Group, is described as a one-stop shop for pies, cheesecakes, cakes and cookies, with muffins and bomboloni for Thanksgiving morning. The ordering page says phone orders are taken on 978-774-0012 and the shop is open daily 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. We didn’t find a posted cutoff or prices.

Smolak Farms, North Andover. The farm stand at 315 South Bradford Street is open daily from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. with cider donuts, pies and seasonal treats, and Thanksgiving orders are open for pies and farm-raised turkeys. Its “final day to order online” notice reads “Sunday, November 16,” but November 16 is a Monday this year, so that date is stale. Call or stop at the stand to confirm. The farm also lists apple pie-making classes on November 21 and 22.

The charity option: Pie in the Sky

Pie in the Sky is the long-running Community Servings fundraiser, and the pies are baked locally. Orders close November 21 and everything is ready on Tuesday, November 24. You choose apple, pecan or pumpkin, or a three-pie bundle. Northshore Magazine lists $35 a pie. There are more than 40 pickup sites across eastern Massachusetts, including Beverly, Marblehead, Andover, Stoneham and Woburn. If your first site can’t fill the order, the organizers say to try another nearby.

Around Boston and the inner suburbs

Flour Bakery + Cafe. Flour’s 2026 page posts pie prices: classic pumpkin $30, gluten-free pumpkin $35, southern pecan $35, sweet potato $35, double-crust apple $40, roasted pear cranberry almond crostata $40, a “Piefecta” $38 and tcho chocolate cream $40 (gluten-free $45). Delivery orders through its link are taken until 4 p.m. on Saturday, 11/21, while supplies last. It also lists pickup at its Boston Common Christmas tree farm on November 27 to 29 and December 4 to 6.

Twist Bakery & Cafe, Burlington. Its allergy-conscious online shop lists a pumpkin pie with maple cream, a cinnamon cream pumpkin pie, chocolate cream, a chocolate chip cookie pie, and double-crust apple and Dutch apple in baked and unbaked versions. The highest price on the page is $45. You pick your pickup location at checkout.

Honeycomb, Hamilton. The Toast pre-order menu lists gluten-free apple crisp, black-bottom pecan, chocolate silk, traditional apple and pumpkin, and apple streusel pies. No deadline is in the listing.

Kane’s Donuts, Saugus. Northshore Magazine says Kane’s usually has eight pie varieties, such as apple, pumpkin, coconut custard and lemon meringue, with pickup at either Saugus location. No prices or deadlines were posted.

One that may already be closed

Drive-By Pies, which lists pickup in Brookline or Reading, shows “Order til Nov 8” on its page without a year. If that is this year’s cutoff, it has passed. Its page says pie orders need 24 hours’ notice generally, so a phone call to 617-879-6210 is the quickest check.

What we couldn’t confirm

• Prices at A&J King, Sandpiper, Appleton Farms, The Proper Shoppe, Daniella’s Dolce, Honeycomb and Kane’s.
• The Source Bakery cutoff date, and the Smolak Farms date.
• The Pie in the Sky deadline, price and pickup day: its site did not load for us, so check pieinthesky.org for this year’s details.
• Pickup times at The Proper Shoppe.

Menus sell out and tweak flavors late in the season, so treat this as a map and check the shop’s own page before you order.
