About

Cornish Pasty Co is a Flagstaff institution built around one thing done a lot of ways: the Cornish pasty, that hand-folded meat-and-veg pie British miners once carried underground. The menu runs to more than 30 versions, from classics to vegan and vegetarian riffs, alongside other English pub staples. With a 4.5-star rating from over 1,700 reviews, it's clearly found an audience well beyond homesick expats.

What to expect

The building itself does a lot of the work — reviewers consistently call out the long, church-pew-style communal tables, dim pub lighting, a full bar, pool tables, and a back patio with a gas fire wall. It reads more like an English pub than a sit-down restaurant, and it leans toward groups rather than quiet two-tops. Regulars point to the Scotch egg as a strong starter and the Reuben pasty as a standout main, best given a few minutes to cool since they come out of the kitchen genuinely hot. A few reviewers note that with a menu this large, some pasty options can sell out by evening, especially after busy weekends.

Good to know

Wow! I've never seen so many pastys in my life. So many to choose from & many other interesting options on their menu. I had the lamb w/ rutabaga & mint. Also ordered the beet salad, beets, pine nuts, cheese & dressing on a huge bed of spinach. Pricy but worth it, so much food I could have split it with a friend. Large bar & spacious dining room w/ great atmosphere, a lounge area w/ armchairs & couches, beir hall style long tables with church pew benches, fully stocked bar, back patio w/ gas fire wall, friendly staff. Really great spot. I could see being a daytime regular here just to read & snack or work remotely. My only critique would be that the music at noon didn't really fit the atmosphere. Loud, Friday night shake your booty dance music didn't really fit the lunch vibe. I'd recommend something more mellow during the day. Some classic jazz would definitely fit the vibe but then again, what do I know. I hope they stay in business for many years to come. They even had some really great T-shirts

Lovely experience from start to finish. The food was really nice, the staff were warm, friendly, and attentive, and they even helped us choose the best drink for us. The ambiance is truly world-class while still feeling cozy, and the outdoor patio is a great bonus. Inside, the open bar and pool tables add to the fun atmosphere, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy the evening. Overall, it’s a lovely restaurant and definitely worth a visit.

A good place if you crave Cornish pasty, the menu has more than 30 different pasty, vegan, vegetarian, meaty… but more than half of the menu wasn’t available when we went for dinner, which is a bit disappointing, I couldn’t get what I wanted. Of course I could still pick something and it tasted good, but maybe they should revise the menu and keep 10-15 pasty options, which are always available. The interior rather has a pub vibe than a restaurant, it’s quite dark inside, but it has a character for sure!

Great building inside. Also had outside seating. Inside seating is basically old church pews like 30' long. So it's possible you can be sharing a long table with other people, if that's an issue for you. Service was great and quite a bit of choices on the menu. Had the Scotch egg for an app. It was really good and the mustard with it really completed it. Had the Reuben pasty. These things come out really hot and fresh so be prepared to have it sit a few minutes to be able to handle and consume. Once I was able to eat it, it was very tasty and the Russian dressing on the side that comes with it was banging. For dessert got the apple pie with ice cream which was phenomenal. Great place to eat. Paid on street parking is the only thing we could find but to be expected in a tourist town.

A very unique spot. The decor and lighting brings a nice ambiance to this location. Also a fan of the pew seating. They have a wide selection of Cornish pasties from classics to more out there variants. We came after the long weekend and they were quite low on a number of pasties but we were still able to get our top choices. The food came out fairly quickly and was well portioned and priced. This place is more tailored to larger groups than smaller parties but we were happy with our experience.
