Meet the Future of Food
Apple Pie Bakery Café is one of the many student-run, faculty-led teaching restaurants at the Culinary Institute of America. These students are in their final courses, and will soon graduate to become top chefs or continue in their studies to become future leaders, entrepreneurs, or innovators in the food industry. Baking and Pastry students spend their semester rotating through and perfecting various positions within the front- and back-of-house to gain the hands-on experience that prepares them for the industry.
Please place your order at the counter when you arrive. We welcome you to enjoy your food in our dining room, but please note that no table service will be provided at this time. Thank you!
