Bang Bang Pie's Ravenswood Location Is Now Open

Logan Square's beloved Bang Bang Pie has finally opened its much-anticipated and -salivated-about Ravenswood location, Eater reports.

Located at 4947 N. Damen Ave., the new space has a similar menu to the Logan Square location, focused on pie, biscuit sandwiches, and grits, according to Eater. There's a few new dishes, though, including "the wedge biscuit," which Eater describes as "a biscuit sandwiched with iceberg lettuce, bacon, blue cheese, hard-boiled egg, tomatoes, and buttermilk ranch dressing."

There's also Gaslight Coffee brewed on the premises, Black Dog Gelato on hand for pie a la mode, and house-made granola for sale.

The Ravenswood location looks a bit different from Logan Square's shop. A crystal chandelier, Eater reports, takes the interior to a more palatial place than its predecessor—and when summer starts in earnest, the new Bang Bang will have an outdoor patio.

Bang Bang 2.0 will be open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays (except Tuesday, when it's closed), and 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekends, according to Eater.
