Gourmet Pie and Cafe is a family owned and operated restaurant started in 1984 by Ruthie, Tony and Mike Richards. We started Gourmet Pie so we could share our dedication to and obsession with delicious recipes and baked goods with all of you. The restaurant was originally located in Cypress and started as a bakery specializing in pies, cakes (wedding cakes), breads, pastries and cookies. Soon after opening, we expanded our menu to include some of our favorite home cooked meals which we are still making today. In 2004 we moved to our current location in Los Alamitos so we could serve you better and continue to grow. Today, our owner, Mike Richards continues to offer all of your long time Gourmet favorites, which still include some of our old family recipes, while adding unique new recipes and specials to the menu and bakery each and every week.
