Sophie OmnomJuly 3, 2016Mind-blowing key lime pies! Definitely worth the trip. The swingles are the perfect summertime treat. Pick one up and take a stroll on the pier
The key lime pie was amazing! You can grab an individual sized pie and eat it in the park next door
BuzzFeedApril 11, 2014swin·gle [swin-guhl] (n.): A frozen key lime pie dipped in chocolate, on a stick. Best enjoyed with a view of the Statue of Liberty from a pier in Red Hook.
ValJuly 6, 2014Unless you're a dark chocolate lover, pass on the swizzle. The intense flavor of the cocoa takes away from the pure goodness of the key lime pie. The tart is the best way to go.
EileenApril 26, 2017Get the key lime pie and skip the swingle. The dark chocolate coating on the swingle overpowers the tartness of the key lime.
Serious EatsOctober 14, 2014Have you tried the Swingle? It's a key lime pie—tart lime curd, buttery graham cracker crust, and all—frozen and enrobed in high-end dark chocolate, then shoved on a popsicle stick. Read more
etta yAugust 10, 2013Tart, not too sweet, cool, creamy (not gloopy!) and sitting in a simple old-fashioned graham cracker crust with a tender crumb, this KLP is pretty damn fabulous. Bonus: resorty benches by the water.- Serious EatsAugust 13, 2013The finest key lime pies in NYC. You can get whole and single-serving pies as well as a frozen, chocolate-dripped pie on a stick: the Swingle.
- Ariel VieraAugust 6, 2014Be sure to try the Key Lime Pie. I mean, it's basically the only thing on the menu and you have travelled all this way to an isolated corner of Brooklyn, why wouldn't you try the Key Lime Pie?
On the GridNovember 21, 2016After a bike ride down Van Dyke St., you will be rewarded by a KLP covered in Belgian dark chocolate and served on a stick - The Swingle. You’re welcome. Read more
Eleonora ZorziJune 28, 2015Absolutely delicious! For a personal experience get the little pie covered in chocolate and frozen on a stick.
Northern Spy Food CoJune 14, 2012Ride a bike down to Red Hook some time, pick up some key lime pies at Steve's (while admiring the ramshackle store), and then go sit out on the pier to eat while looking at NYC's maritime glory.
Chris LApril 17, 2014swin·gle [swin-guhl] (n.): A frozen key lime pie dipped in chocolate, on a stick. Best enjoyed with a view of the Statue of Liberty from a pier in Red Hook.
Janis HuangOctober 10, 2015Tart is the best. Swingles are a novelty but the chocolate overpowers the fresh key lime flavor
CITY GRITAugust 9, 2014Your best bet for fresh pies is to come by on Friday’s until 6 and on the weekends from 11 am until the sun goes down!
J CrowleyAugust 18, 2012I don't even like key lime pie - and this is outstanding! Just don't let your baby get first dibs.
Ben MackeyAugust 12, 2018There is really only one thing to get here - it is on the door. But really, the right move is those little chocolate dipped pies on sticks.
Ryan NovakAugust 9, 2019I got the classic, a mini key lime pie dipped in chocolate. It was very good!
Varun ShettyMay 10, 2015Summertime classic. Grab a 4" pie, don't share it with anyone, and walk to the water.
Matthew KamenApril 13, 2014A little out of the way but a must if you're nearby. 4 inch key lime tart and limeaid. Enjoy at the colorful picnic tables.
Liz CourtneyJuly 29, 2015The Swingle - a key lime pie tart on a stick, dipped in dark chocolate, and frozen - is the greatest dessert ever invented.
- ValJuly 4, 2014One of only two bakeries in the states that uses fresh key limes in their pies. Get ready for a taste of heaven.
Adele BlancoFebruary 3, 2015Don't be tempted by the chocolate covered key lime pie. The original is amazing on its own .- Rachel SlursSeptember 7, 2014I love the Classic Swingle, but damn Steve! Your prices have become exorbitant over the last few years.
Robert MadisonJune 30, 2019This is spectacular key lime pie. It is tasty and subtly sweet. Perfect 👌
MasterCardSeptember 16, 2011For the perfect amount of the most perfect Key Lime Pie, order the Swingle, a key lime pie tart on a stick, dipped in Belgian dark chocolate.
Tomer MokedAugust 31, 2015The pie on a stick is delicious, few bites are enough. The regular pie is perfect
Roniel TesslerAugust 20, 2017Worth the hype. Get the unadulterated 4" single serving pie or the frozen with raspberry for a kick. 😋
Melissa LonsdaleOctober 22, 2015The key lime pies were amazing! But the limeade was the real winner for me!
Grab a small pie and sit on the pier. One of my favorite Brooklyn lazy afternoon activities.
Eric TashAugust 31, 2014If there are 3 things I can take to a stranded island, a swingle would be one of them. Dang!
Sadie SteinMay 26, 2010I am making this a tip not because the klp is so good (although it's tasty) but because the view from behind the store, across the water, makes your heart swell with love of New York.
Anthony PopeoOctober 15, 2014Phenomenal, fresh key lime pie. It wouldn't kill you to (you should absolutely) take one for the road.
Zach AaronsJune 5, 2012I always forget how mediocre this place is every time I go out to Red Hook. If you want good Key Lime Pie, go to Mrs. Mac's Kitchen in Key Largo. (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Amanda SAugust 5, 2014I'm still thinking about it long after I gobbled it all down! Delicious, highly recommended!
Peter RobinettJune 19, 2016Like cold pie but don't want chocolate that'll swamp the lime? Ask for a Swingle that hasn't been dipped yet.
IrisMarch 22, 2011The swingle has a pretty heavy chocolate coating - too much for me. Just get pie! And get a frozen one to keep in your freezer in case of emergency.
