Nye Pie Pizza Wraps Up 2025 Season

A live band plays as many people gather around in chairs and enjoy Nye Pie Pizza's food for its last day open for 2025.

After a long - and at times chaotic - summer season Nye Pie Pizza finishes off with a blast for the Saturday before Labor Day.

Celebrating the pizza shop's success, gratitude to the community, and the end to a gorgeous summer season in Montana, Nye Pie Pizza finishes the year with a customer appreciation weekend event - selling over 200 pizzas through the labor day weekend.

All of us at the Nye Trading Post and Nye Pie are still shocked and very grateful to the loads of people that came out during these summer weekends and we hope Nye Pie can come back even better in 2026!

While there's tons we could write about in regards to everything that's happened this summer, I'll instead leave this post with a timeline of photos that we took through the summer as Nye Pie Pizza continued to grow. Once we've had a minute to rest, we'll post more about Nye Pie here and over at our Facebook page or you can just find us over at the Nye Trading Post and chat with us about it - we'll still be there all year round.

Thanks again for coming out to Nye Pie Pizza!

New Bridge Installed at Woodbine Falls Trail

A new bridge has been installed to replace the older wooden bridge used to cross the stream on the Woodbine Falls trail that was washed away in the river floods of 2022.

Despite nearly no posted notices of the bridges installation, the forest service crew installed the bridge sometime before June 13th.

This new bridge is a metal construction that appears to be much stronger and on better foundation than the previous wooden bridge.

Woodbine Falls trail is now fully accessible without having to cross over any narrow fallen trees laying over the stream.

Nye Pie Pizza 2025 Summer Season

As of May 30th, Nye Pie Pizza is now open for the summer weekends!

While all of us at the Nye Trading Post are still working hard to get the building constructed for Nye Pie, we will be serving some of the best pizza in this part of Montana under the tent (weather permitting) every Friday and Saturday - from 11 AM through 6 PM - for the entire foreseeable summer season - with the exception of the Saturday of Nye Goes Nuts on July 12th.

On the week before our opening day of May 30th, we were able to pour our first half of our foundation slab for the building construction. This slab will be the foundation of our enclosed kitchen space and has various piping installed in the concrete for drainage, water supply, and electrical conduits that will be hooked up much later in the project and be a great convenience to us in the future.

For now, we are making arrangements to have the other half of the slab - which serves as the foundation of the patio section of our building - formed and poured within the next week.

The patio section will ultimately serve as protection from bad weather for us and customers but will also likely be used as a limited seating area, order pick-up counter, and a place to set up things like TVs and speakers for entertainment.

After the final concrete slab is poured and fully set, we expect the remaining construction of the building will come together pretty quickly as we have been making arrangements for all of our materials during this time that we have been waiting to have concrete brought in.

In the meantime, as of this post, Nye Pie Pizza - under the tent - has had two very successful

weekends so far; hundreds of pizzas have been sold already and dozens of people have come to us to let us know that they enjoyed some of the best pizza that they've ever had.

The only hiccup we've had so far was with the Friday morning of our second weekend, which was regarding a medical concern with one of us that we believed was going to make it impossible to open at all for the weekend but it was pretty quickly taken care of and resulted in Nye Pie simply opening about an hour later than usual. The delay did result in Nye Pie being unavailable for Friday lunch, unfortunately.

But regardless of that situation, Nye Pie has been enjoying what seems to be the start of a very good year.

Aside from pizza, Nye Pie is now offering more on the menu like pan style pizzas with a deeper crust, the 'Gold Bars' cheesy bread which is stacked with cheese and a special buttery blend, and even desserts like the 'Cinna-Bars', ice cream cones, and hot fudge brownie sundae.

Great pizza will always be the main focus but all of us working Nye Pie hope to provide variety and a great experience for those stopping by.

We have had hundreds of take-out menus printed that have begun to make their way around the local communities but you can now also find an online menu and contact information right here on this website if you're interested to see what we're offering.

While there's still much more that we dream of pursuing with Nye Pie in the future, we certainly are feeling the restraints of all that we can manage under a tent at the moment. Making pizzas timely and up to our standards is now easier than ever thanks to some new appliances we were able to get under our tent this year but moving everything in and out of storage every morning and evening has proven to be incredibly time consuming, degrading the durability of our equipment, and ultimately restraining us from doing more. This isn't stopping us from continuing to open Nye Pie every weekend but it does certainly add to our eagerness to move everything into its own structure soon.

We're still some time away from having any kind of date for a 'grand opening' of the new building, but our current predictions are generally aiming towards late June or Early July of this year - so we've got at least a few more weekends under our roadside tent.

Finally, we're incredibly grateful for everyone that has come out to see us and enjoy some of the awesome food we're working our butts off to make out here. We recognize many people that come out everyday - either to support us or just because they really like the pizza - but either way, we can not thank you all enough and hope to keep seeing all of you stop by.
