    Would you like a slice of pie with your cup of coffee? You’ll have one more option now thanks to two North Texas businesses.

    White Rhino Coffee recently announced its acquisition of North Texas bakery, Emporium Pies.

    The two companies both began in Dallas and have expanded to multiple locations around the metroplex. Emporium Pies began out of the Bishop Arts District in 2012 and is known for its rotating gourmet pie menu that has fan favorite flavors like ‘The Drunken Nut.” White Rhino was founded in 2007 and sells craft coffees with homemade breakfast.

    Their operations will remain the same at their separate locations, except customers can anticipate future coffee and pie collaborations.

    Emporium Pies’ specialties include a red-velvet buttermilk pie, pecan and chocolate, plus apple and fruit pies.

    Emporium Pies menu and locations

    Emporium Pies features a rotating menu of pie flavors that match whatever ingredients are in season. For example, during the month of December they offer white chocolate peppermint with chocolate crust and cranberry pecan as festive Christmas options.

    Pies are sold by the slice for $8 to $9 a piece. You can also get whole pies on a first-come-first-serve basis, so the earlier you visit, the better.

    Emporium Pies has two Dallas locations, plus more in Fort Worth and McKinney. The Fort Worth shop is located at 411 S. Main St. They are open Sunday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.

    As for food, White Rhino serves homemade breakfast sandwiches, tacos and pastries as well as dishes like avocado toast and egg/hashbrown scrambles.
