Betty's Pies
A North Shore institution since 1956 — it started as a fish-shack coffee stop — famous for five-layer butterscotch and French blueberry pies. Open daily, right on MN-61.
Betty's Pies has been a North Shore institution since 1956, when it started life as a fish-shack coffee stop on MN-61. It is famous now for its pies — the five-layer butterscotch and the French blueberry among them — and it is open daily.
For riders the best part is the location: it sits directly on MN-61 along the Lake Superior run, so it is a pie stop with no detour required. Pull off, eat, and you are right back on the shore road.
It is a straightforward, reliable break on one of the Midwest's signature coastal rides — exactly the kind of stop you build a North Shore day around.
The classic pie stop on the MN-61 Lake Superior run — directly on the highway, no detour required.
