The Pie Store Joins the Worcester Public Market Food Scene

WORCESTER, MASS., (February 20, 2024) – Table Talk celebrates the grand opening of The Pie Store at the Worcester Public Market on Green Street in the canal district. The store features Table Talk’s perfectly imperfect dessert- and snack-sized pies as well as popular Table Talk merchandise. Additionally, for the first time in the company’s 100-year history, the store will offer crumb cakes in varieties including blueberry, cinnamon, and New York style. The store will be open Tuesday – Friday 9 am to 5 pm, Saturday & Sunday 11 am – 7pm.  Tuesday’s will be Senior Day.

The Pie Store closed its location at 153 Green Street in October 2022 and temporarily relocated to 65 Green Street. This permanent move to Worcester Public Market is a sort of homecoming to the store’s original location near legendary Kelley Square.

“As one of Worcester’s beloved food institutions, it only felt right to move the Table Talk Pie Store to the city’s newest and best food scene,” said Isaac Long, president of Table Talk. “Our home in the Public Market is the perfect place to celebrate our upcoming 100-year anniversary, and to serve new and long-time customers in such a vibrant and happening location.”

The Worcester Public Market is a European-styled food-oriented marketplace featuring foods and merchandise from around the world. It also is home to the popular Wachusett Brew Yard, and is adjacent to the restaurants, bars, and retail shops that make up the historic canal district neighborhood.

Since 1924, Table Talk Pies, Inc. (www.tabletalkpie.com) has operated as a family-owned business that specializes in fresh baked pies that are sold in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Canada and beyond.  Table Talk’s team of more than 300 full-time employees operates from three automated bakeries all located in Worcester, MA.

Table Talk Pies Breaks Ground On New Warehouse In Worcester, Mass.

Table Talk Pies and Tippmann Innovation broke ground in late February on a new cold storage facility in Worcester, Massachusetts.

Cold storage contractor Tippmann Innovation of Fort Wayne, Indiana, is constructing a -10°F freezer warehouse that maximizes energy efficiency, according to the companies. The freezer sits adjacent to Table Talk’s 150,000-s.f. manufacturing facility, which will enable the facility to streamline the production and distribution processes. The facility now is able to produce at full capacity and store finished goods on-site instead of using outside public cold storage.

WORCESTER – Take about 11 acres of land, buy much of the property, tear down decrepit buildings, give new construction a tax break and then resell available parcels to developers.

That’s the recipe the city of Worcester followed with the South Worcester Industrial Park over close to two decades, a swath of land wedged between Canterbury Street and railroad tracks. The land was once home to metal and machine manufacturers, a foundry and an auto salvage business.

Today, the park is home to a pie maker and a manufacturing equipment seller. Soon, a modern manufacturing building for small businesses or startups will rise on another parcel. All of the parcels bought and cleared by the city have been sold or have deals in place.
