Follow here and on Instagram for Pop Up events. Mean Pies Pizza started as a pop up shop in the summer of 2020 in Philadelphia, as a way for PJ Bond to chase his Pizza Dreams. PJ had previously chased a music life around the country, spending days off eating at every pizzeria he could find, and spending summers resting in Asheville with his family. The music eventually slowed down, PJ ended up in Philly, and started to learn from all of the great local shops, including working at the multi-award winning Pizzeria Beddia and with local darlings Circles and Squares. Mean Pies made the move down south in the spring of 2021 so PJ could be closer to family, in the beautiful mountains, and we are incredibly excited and appreciative to add our food to an already vibrant and inspiring scene. After many fun and successful pop-ups at OWL Bakery, Mean Pies has found a new home on the food trailer at Pleb Urban Winery, and it feels like a fantastic fit. We love OWL, we love Pleb, and all that they both do.

Our pizza starts with freshly milled grains and bread flour, is proofed and baked in 12"x12" pans, and yields a crunchy, fluffy, airy crust. Think focaccia that chose a different path. We really enjoy it and think you will too. We will always offer our Plain pizza, which has tomato sauce and mozzarella, as well as some type of seasonal pie. For those who don't eat dairy, we have our Tomato Pie, which is based on something you'll find in Italian bakeries in and around Philadelphia. It's usually served room temperature there, but we treat it like regular pizza here. Sometimes I think that no cheese and extra sauce isn't so appealing, and then I eat a whole pie in a sitting, and more often than not I push the Cheese slices away and reach for a Tomato. I'm always happily surprised how much I love it. The seasonal pies sauces are typical vegan too, just omit the cheeses. Pleb makes wine from grapes grown in this region, which provides a fantastic opportunity to try local grapes that are often new to most folks. These wines are exciting, delicious, and interesting. They also pair really well with the pizza! I think that covers it all, but if you have any questions at all, please feel free to email us at [email protected]. Thank you and we can't wait to serve you! Mean Pies Pizza
