The cherry pie here landed on the New York Times list of the best restaurant desserts across the country in 2025, which is a lot of pressure for a slice of pie. The Cherry Hut is an old-school roadside institution in Northern Michigan that has been slinging pie forever, and a quarter-slab served warm is the move. Sour cherries, an aggressively generous filling, and a lard crust thin enough to shatter make the whole thing taste like the Platonic ideal of a county fair.
