Homemade Pie, photo by smalltowngirl
For months, friends have encouraged me to visit Washington, Missouri. Many of those friends have also recommended eating a slice of pie at Cowan’s. I should listen to the advice of friends more often.
First of all, Cowan’s has a groovy florescent pie for a sign outside. Where else in small town Missouri can you find a light-up pie?

Second of all, Cowan’s is super-comfortable and low-key on the inside. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the restaurant is small and informal.

Most importantly though, this place has some killer pie.

The next time you’re in Washington, Missouri, do yourself a favor and go to Cowan’s for a slice of pie. Actually, buy two slices and bring me one on your way home. Cowan’s gets a big, fat smalltowngirl stamp of approval.

Cowan’s Restaurant is located at 114 Elm Street in downtown Washington, Missouri. To learn more about Cowan’s, check out their website.
The pie sign was part of the remodel done by the Town Haul, if I remember right. After all, they are known for their pies, so why shouldn’t they have a huge sign advertising that?
Look at that smile on your face! I will definitely check that place out soon!!!
I looked at their website and now I’m hungry! Great post, as usual!
