Estes Park Flooding
Hello all! Many of you have called the bakery to ask about our welfare during the recent Colorado flooding. We are very lucky to report that we sustained no damage to the building, and we remained open for business during this trying time. We are open every day with our bakery items and full restaurant menu. We welcome our loyal local customers and can't wait for our out of town guests to return for PIE! Estes Park did sustain some damage that will be long term to repair, however, the entire downtown corridor is ok and most shops are open. A few are still repairing damage done by the floodwaters but expect to be reopening soon. Roads are open both into and out of Estes Park - primarily Hwy 7 is the popular route which offers a spectacular fall viewing opportunity for wildlife and foliage. It is a bit of a longer drive, but worth every minute. Estes Park is strong and we anxiously await your visit!

You are in for a really big treat! Thousands of people participated in last year's Savor Estes Park... and this year's "Savor Estes Park" will be even BIGGER!
Start the afternoon with a matinee special of 3 different movies at The Reel Mountain Theater at 1:00pm.
Participating restaurants will be serving a 6” plate of some of their specialty foods with a glass of wine, beer or soft drink. The cost for each restaurant is $3.00 per person. Residents or visitors are encouraged to visit 2-3 different restaurants each week that they haven’t been to or go to your favorite restaurants and enjoy their fabulous cuisine at a very reasonable price. You will even find a few new restaurants that you will surely will go back to sometime soon.
And… don't forget to finish the night with a stop for dessert! All you have to do is show up, let the restaurant know that you are there for "Savor Estes Park" and you will get their specialty plate for only $3.00. It’s a GREAT meal-deal and a chance to try those restaurants that you’ve been wanting to try! If you plan it right, you could go to 15+ new restaurants during the month of March…and for a great VALUE!
So get your 2011 calendars out and mark these dates: March 3th, March 10th, March 19th, March 24th and March 31st from 4:30PM - 7:30PM. Plan on picking out 2-3 restaurants each week (or 4, if you’re really hungry or really want to try more than 15 restaurants during the month of March) and strategize on which restaurants you will be visiting. Tell all of your friends, relatives and neighbors ! (One of my friends thought I had said, "Save Our Estes Park," which is not a bad thought either in the middle of winter!). It’s a fun time…if you make it that way!

You Need Pie!™ Too Café – Mt. Olympus Hall of Fame
The Mt. Olympus Breakfast is our signature Prix Fixe Plate featuring a mouth-watering assortment of our breakfast treats including a sizable portion of our French Toast Casserole, a two-egg cheese fritatta, a serving of breakfast meat, a serving of our hash brown casserole, and a cinnamon roll or a sticky bun! Most people find it too big for one person; and, until recently no single person had ever finished it in house in one sitting. The first person to complete the challenge prompted us to start a Hall of Fame to recognize the few who complete this feat of culinary fortitude truly worthy of its namesake mountain, Mt. Olympus (Estes Park not Greece).

"It was incredibly rewarding to witness so many people from all over the world participating..." as voting between three specially-designed blends of Kind Coffee were sampled with Estes Park Pie Shop & Bakery's pie during Estes Park's Winter Festival held January 19-21..."in this wonderful event," said café manager, Scooter Thompson. "There were people from as far away as Sweden and Australia not to mention Alabama and Iowa who got to voice their opinion."
"Not only did we have visitors from out of town here to taste coffee and
pie, our local customers were very excited to participate in this event. The
entire weekend was 'a buzz' with all the festivities, and it was a great
promotion for our businesses and town," added Amy Hamrick, owner of Kind Coffee, LLC.

Press Release: World's Best Coffee For Pie
Kind Coffee and the Estes Park Pie Shop & Bakery Announce Plan to Determine the "World's Best Coffee to Serve with Pie"
In a joint venture, between Estes Park's renowned, independently owned, organic coffee roaster and the café cousin of the Estes Park Pie Shop and Bakery, the owners of Kind Coffee, LLC. and the Estes Park Pie Shop & Bakery announced their intention today to invite the people of Colorado to sample their specially-blended coffee and scratch baked pies during Estes Park's Winter Festival January 14-17, 2011, and then vote for one of the blends to be dubbed 'The World's Best Coffee to Go With Pie!'. The results of the days of sampling and voting are planned to be revealed at a special luncheon and unveiling ceremony to be held at the You Need Pie!™ Too Café at 12:30 pm M.D.T. on Thursday, February 10, 2011.
Estes Park, CO, USA January 3, 2011 – Beginning Friday, January 14 and continuing through Monday, January 17, Kind Coffee, LLc. and the You Need Pie!™ Too Café, both located in downtown Estes Park, Colorado, cordially invite all Winter Festival visitors and residents to taste candidate blends of Kind Coffee paired with Estes Park Pie Shop & Bakery Pie and vote which candidate should be announced on February 10, 2011, as 'The World's Best Coffee to Go With Pie!'.
The winning coffee blend will be unveiled at a special luncheon to be held at the You Need Pie!™ Too Café on Thursday, February 10, 2011 beginning at 12:30 pm with the winning coffee blend being served up to the public and officially dubbed, 'World's Best Coffee to Go With Pie!' at 2:30 pm M.D.T.
Locally known as the premiere organic coffee roaster and best pie shop / bakery in town, it was only a matter of time before the owners of Kind Coffee and the Estes Park Pie Shop and Bakery would join forces to develop and select the 'World's Best Coffee to Go With Pie!'. Inviting their loyal customers and all Coloradoans to taste and vote on which blend goes best with pie was a natural progression of the business relationship.
"With the capacity to design and blend exclusive and unique fair trade coffees, Kind Coffee seemed like a natural, best fit when it came to fulfilling an idea I've had for a while, serving and selling the best coffee ever blended to go specifically with our amazing pie," said Scooter Thompson, manager of the You Need Pie!™ Too Café when asked why he decided to pitch Kind Coffee owner, Amy Hamrick, owner of Kind Coffee, the idea. Hamrick noted, "After working at the Farmer's Market all summer next to Scooter (selling pies), I came to understand the importance and iconic value of 'pie' in this town and across America, and how the Estes Park Pie Company truly embodies this. Kind Coffee works with the local business community throughout the year, and this is a great event to feature locally made products and our Americana."
Over the past two years, the Estes Park Lodging Association has worked hard to build the Estes Park Winter Festival into one of the region's most exciting and fun, winter, family experiences. Timing the voting for the 'World's Best Coffee to Go With Pie!' seemed like a natural thing to do so as to extend the umbrella of voters and capture a larger audience in this important decision-making process.
