Have lived in the area forty plus years. Been going to Alex's since I was a teen. The original owners back then were friendly, knew your name and gave you efficient service and consistant pies. Gravy was made on premises as was the dough. No Delivery but then it was nearby and not a big deal to go get it. Pies were also the lowest price anywhere in the area. After working overseas for many years I returned to Roxborough about two or three years ago and couldnt wait for my ""pie"". Very disappointed ! The original owner was long gone as well as all the ole staff. The pie wasn't bad but it wasn't the same. Different recipe or ingredients. The attitude was what turned me away. Twice I called to place an order and after many rings a man came on and shouted "" Call Back! "" and HUNG UP on me! How rude, The New owners lost my business and not just mine, I've heard they may have given up and sold to someone else. I dont see the same guys in there when I drive by. We'll see how that plays out. Stay tuned for an update.
