Do the following in where condition

TimeSpan span = TimeSpan.Parse("09:00:00");
TimeSpan espan = TimeSpan.Parse("17:00:00");

Pirs.Where(a => a.timestamp >= startDate && a.timestamp <= toDate && a.timestamp.TimeOfDay >= span && a.timestamp.TimeOfDay <= espan);

Pirs.Where(a.timestamp.TimeOfDay > new TimeStamp(9, 0, 0) &&   //all times after 9am
           a.timestamp.TimeOfDay < new TimeStamp(17, 0, 0) &&  //all times before 5pm
           a.timestamp.Date > fromDate &&                      //all dates after fromData
           a.timestamp.Date < toDate)                          //all dates before toDate
