This place is amazing, first time here so I went with the Oggie it's the OG ! Very flavorful simply delicious! The bread & butter was great and enough for 4 people! Ian the bartender provided excellent service as well. I will definitely be back to try everything on the menu! read more

I went to this place for the first time today and I loved it! The restaurant was so cute, and the food was delicious! This way the first pasty I've ever had and it was great. The service was fantastic, our waitress was actually british so that definitely helped. I hadn't heard of the place before but it was really crowded. I will definitely be going back here multiple times read more

Tried the Roast dinner last night and it was so delicious I couldn't stop myself from eating it even after I was full! Also, I ordered their "sage" mixed beverage and that was great too! read more

The food at their Tempe location on University was amazing!!! I was able to eat lunch during the week and the pasty was so delicious!! I love coming here for a nice place to grab a lot of food for a little price! read more

I love this place... too! They have the best red curry pasty i have ever eaten. I wish you had a place in north phoenix though as the drive is a bit far. In addition to the pastys i really like all the sides such as the rutabaga, and the stilton soup. Yum! This place delivers on all counts. read more

My party and I sat at a table for 45 minutes and never even got menus despite being approached by a server twice and told we would be helped shortly. It wasn't even a busy night, and when we finally decided to leave and go elsewhere, we saw the servers chatting casually with each other by the kitchen on our way out. I eat out at least once a week and I have NEVER encountered service this terrible. read more

I wish there was a way to leave two different sets of stars. My 2/5 will hopefully get their attention. I was glad to see that the restaurant is doing well and remodeled their two locations with more locations coming soon. The food at Cornish Pasty is impeccable. I always bring friends and family visiting here to try the unique cuisine. I like to explain it as 'gourmet hot pockets'. I haven't ordered a thing I didn't like. I know it can be hard for picky eaters since there are no substitutions but thankfully I don't have that problem. Their soups are amazing, all made in house. The peppered steak and chicken and rice soup are my two favorite dishes. The Mesa location recently added some new appetizers and I can't wait to try them all. Very disappointed to find that Tempe didn't add them to the menu yet. The atmosphere, music, and excellent drink selection is another aspect I love about this place. It's good for dates as well. $5 mid shelf and always $3 Irish Car bombs with lots of microbrews on draft? YES PLEASE. The one thing I hate about Cornish Pasty, and the reason why I give it 2/5 is the SERVICE SUCKS. It must be a requirement to be a hipster with 5+ visible tattoos/piercings with a poor work effort. You even get a raise for having poor personal hygiene! I've been eating at Cornish Pasty for 5 years and have never received good service. Last time I ate at the mesa location the service had improved a lot, unfortunately I went to Tempe a week later and had awful service. I could go into detail about the awful service, forgetting ordered items, being ignored and the general distasteful appearance of the staff. I don't mind tattoos and piercings, I have some! I was even a waitress for 7 years, but you should really brush your hair, shower, or wear socks to work. If you like great food, drinks and atmosphere and can stand the idiots they hire to serve you. Then definitely eat here. I will continue to be a regular, I just wish their management would shape up those servers. I would recommend the Mesa location over the Tempe one. The Mesa one added new menu items, I ate there about 3 weeks ago and received great service. The Tempe one continues to disappoint. Although the food is always top notch. read more

this go-around, i ordered the cottage pasty, vegetarian. filled with quinoa meat and lots of potatoes and veggies. it was divine. the wife and i split the banana desert with graham cracker crust and caramel drizzle....caramel dollop that is. super rich and sweet. it was delicious but i felt my teeth hurting afterwards. we'll go a little more savory next time! still an awesome place with over excellent service. read more

I love eating here! I love getting take out! They are very nice, the hipster thing is fine, you aren't made to feel unwelcome, but the cool people are just sooo cool! :) haha! The Cajun is yummy, bangers and mash, the burger one with thousand island is soooo yummy! Oh, but the tomato soup.... oh my heavenly goodness!! read more

If you haven't been to the Cornish Pasty (pronounced past-tee), you have not really seen the heart of Tempe. It's a little place, not really good for groups or kiddos, but when you enter you truly fee the atmosphere shift, and guess what? Now you're part of the cool crowd. The food is so good! I love their mushy peas for a starter (although half of the time they are out) and then the Pilgrim to seal the deal. It's like a Thanksgiving party in your mouth any time of the year! All of their food is great, and this place is always busy it seems. Don't come on a Friday or Saturday night unless you like being in small spaces with a million loud drunks. Mid-afternoon is the best. The servers are usually pleasant, but some have a better-than-you hipster attitude. But hey, if you haven't been here yet, you're missing out on Tempe's best kept secret! read more

So, I've only lived in Tempe for about two months, but I've come here a lot! This place never disappoints! The Chicken Pot Pie Pasty, Garlic Cheddar Mashed Potatoes, and the Caramel Apple Pasty A la Mode are my go to fantasy dinner! Our favorite server, Tim, creates the ultimate dining experience for us each and every time! I bring everyone I know here to entertain and will continue to do so! Great Work Cornish!! read more

I was living in Cali and my BF in Arizona.. My BF and friends took me here on my first visit to AZ and I was afraid I wouldn't be a fan... I was SO wrong. And, once I ate their if I found out they went without me (after I had gone back to Cali) I would get so upset! The location and exterior is very unassuming, actually you might miss it if you didn't know what you were looking for. It's tucked between a discount bread store and an Italian place in a slightly run down little strip mall. Initially, when you walk in it doesn't get much better... Its a hallway basically with about 8 tables that seat 2, 2 tables that seat four and a table all the way in the back that will seat 6-8. They also have about 14 seats at the bar. It's dark and in the summer it's WaRm too. But, once you grab a table (it can take time on a Fri or Sat night) you are in for some good eats. I love The Porky, Bangers & Mash & Carne Adovada. BF loves the Lamb & Mint. Friends of ours typically go for The Cottage Pie, Royale with Cheese or the Greek Chicken. Typically we stay with the "traditional pasties", but I recently tried the Carne Adovada (considered a premium pasty) and it rocks. So, BASICALLY we've never been disappointed. And the red wine gravy that they serve on the side... Yeah, I could drink it (you will want to too). And while there are a TON of pastys to choose from... at least once you have to order their pasta salad (order it w/ chicken). Spinach, bow tie pasta, grape tomatoes, kalamata olives, onions, artichoke hearts, roasted red peppers and chicken tossed in a yummy pesto vinaigrette. This is a spot that we always hit early on a Sat or Sun... rarely are we interested in braving the Fri night crowd... And, don't go with more than 4 people unless you want to sit at the bar. Hard Cider and a pasty... my perfect Sunday afternoon. *I was torn on giving the CPC 4 or 5 stars because of their ti-ny seating capacity... but it adds to the character of the place. read more

This place is pretty good! Yummy draft beers & delicious pastys. I like how many vegetarian options they have! I don't feel left out at all coming here with my meat eating friends. The Greek pasty is my favorite so far! read more

I CANNOT BELIEVE these EXIST!!!!!!!! Their pasties are out of this world!! The dough they use is light, not crumbly, and perfect, just perfect. The fillings - HA amazing!! the flavors will blow your mind. I could not finish mine (cause their HUGE) so I brought it home. Had it two days later - e-v-e-n better! The beer selection is phenomenal. When we first arrived, my husband and I walked in and the waitress said "sit anywhere" and we sat behind another couple at a table. The waitress never came to our table after 20 minutes passed - not even to take a drink order. So two seats popped open at the bar & we bee lined for them. Thats when all became good in the world of pasties and beer. Do not pass this place up - stop in. read more

My absolute favorite spot in Tempe! Such a surprising treat from such a hole-in-the-wall type spot. The beer selection is quite nice and their pasty's (pronounced Pass-Tee) are perfectly prepared. I've had everything on the menu, but keep finding myself ordering the Pilgrim over and over again. Definitely finish it off with the banoffee pie for the overall experience. They also have a vegetarian version of nearly all their pasty's which is quite nice. read more

my bartender did not blink once, incredible, thank you ian! great servers, bartenders, food, and draft selection. love this place. read more

Because I lived across the street from this restaurant for a year, I've frequented it many times, usually on the average to once or twice a week. Each dinner including a beer will only set you back between $10.00 and $15.00. With a dessert, make that $20.00. Do not let the initial size of the pasty fool you. You WILL be full upon receipt to your stomach, no matter which variety is chosen. Carved out of what at first glace looks like a long, dark hallway stretching from the front business side, to the back receiving side of a strip mall at the corner of Hardy and University Drives, the Cornish Pasty Company prides itself on its filled pastry dinners that were inspired on the historical food that British coal miners' wives would make for their husbands. The design and layout of the interior gives you the impression you are entering a dark corner pub. Small tables for couples adorn the right side and a bar overlooks the entirety of the food preparation area on the left. Larger seats are available in the back for groups. Make no mistake, this hallway of a restaurant can get packed and run out of adequate seating very quickly on any night of the week, unexpectedly. Luckily there are at least a couple of outside tables for overflow, or if it happens to not be summer. Believe me when I say this: Living within eye shot of this restaurant makes it extremely easy to become addicted to these delectable dinner pockets. The Cornish Pasty serves you with a pastry dough shell, similar in construction to a very large Hot Pocket or Calzone using dough that is best described as crunchy and glazed on the outside, chewy and warm on the inside. It's worth coming for the quality of the baking process alone. Inside the pasty you will find any number of assorted selections. Because I am vegetarian, I can't cover the meat options, which are numerous. However, many of the meat varieties are featured with a vegetarian option using "meatless" meat substitutes which, in every conceivable way, are very convincing. Each dish is served with a sauce that is specific to the type of cuisine at hand. The Mexican is served with salsa. Highlights of my experiences include the Vegetarian Pesto Chicken and the Veggie Tikka Chicken Masala. Arguably the most ethnic items on the menu. The pesto is light and really lets the mushrooms accent the chicken (which is, by the way, the most convincing "meatless" chicken I have yet come across). The bright red curry in the Tikka is some of the most painfully spicy and delicious I have tried outside of traditional Indian Cuisine. It's kept fairly faithful including green peppers, onions, fennel and chili's in the mix. If you want the traditional pasty in a vegetarian form, try the Veggie Oggie. The assortment of potatoes, cheese, rutabagas and peppered beef is a flavor uniquely British. The dessert selection is light, but doesn't disappoint in any way. Try the Banoffee Pie if you have any interest in combining the best elements of a banana split and a banana cream pie. The Strawberry Pavlova is a unique type of crunchy lime merengue topped with strawberries and whipped cream. It's sure to not disappoint those who are fans of fruit desserts. The beer selection is adequate for a downtown Tempe spot, though if you are looking for a bar with it all, maybe try Casey Moore's Oyster house just down the street at University and Ash Ave. The prices on beers are fair for a Tempe bar/restaurant, with a Bass costing in the area of $4.00. The selection is kept pretty close to brewers of Britain, Belgium and Scotland. Names like Smithwicks come about fairly often. There are a few California and German selections as well, such as IPA. Drafts are all European Ales, like Guinness and Newcastle. I think this keeps quite well to the British "pub in a cave" motif. The Cornish Pasty Company is one of my favorite picks out of the Tempe area, and a great way to feed yourself before kicking off a night of hearty local partying, bicycle riding, barhopping, going to a show or whatever else the kids on Mill are doing these days. read more

Awesome... You can't go wrong with any pasty... Also, I'm extremely partial to the Irish car bombs. Not a bad place to pregame before mill :) read more

Great concept who would have ever thought that a restaurant that makes a 100 different types of British Pies could be successful. But here you are with this place that blows away anything you would find in Britain that's for sure. This place has a very eclectic atmosphere that's about the only was to describe it. IT's got this very long bar area that goes along two rooms and the center of the bar area is actually the kitchen where there a handful of people making these pies all into the night. I think I was there close to 12pm once and they were still making and baking these pies. It's actually fun to watch. The place is dark and loud so if that's not your thing than you might not be a fan but I love it. All the pies I've had are really good and they do make a least 2 vegan options but they do run out sometimes so just be prepared. There are also a very large amount of vegetarian pies with fake chicken and meats. I had an Indian Vindaloo one that was really good and had a nice spicy kick. All of the pies will come with a side of sauce for dipping and it really ads flavor to every bite. The service here is top notch considering all the people and commotion of people making pies around them. The people who come here are all pretty social especially in the bar area. I've had people buy me drinks here because they are being friendly. Speaking of drinks they have a great beer and wine menu and it's reasonably priced. Overall this is a place is a must try if you are in the area. read more

Cornish Pasty - Vegan vindaloo patsy with vegan tahini yogurt sauce - British Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Great staff and the food is solid! You get a a great value as well. Very filling and the vibe is great! Can't wait to visit again next time I'm in town. read more

I give very few places 5/5 stars, but this place is so good, and so consistently impeccable that i just had to. I get the Raspberry jam & PB from the desert menu for the kids, and always get tge bangers & mash pasty. Incredible every time! read more

Love the food at Cornish. Great beer selection. Usually the staff is on par, but a ton of turnover so you never know.

Love Cornish! Tasty food (you can't go wrong with meats, veggies, cheese, and bread), great atmosphere, nice staff, and $3 Irish car bombs. All. The. Time. There's a ton of tables here, ranging from intimate booths to huge pub style tables (make some new friends!). A huge list of beers on tap, decently priced. They have a patsy for all, vegan even! I love the Italian. Royale with Cheese is also a good fall back. Hell, even their mashed potatoes are bomb. Makes for a fun night out. I love going there to pregame, as I mentioned, $3 car bombs. You not only get a good buzz, but also get to eat! Happy hour all day Sunday! read more

Great service, great food. I just need to go another 15 times so I can try all the vegetarian pasties. I should know better than to order a side though, but was told by our server that the broccoli and cauliflower bake was really good. Didn't care for it. Wished I would have saved my 5 bucks. read more

A refreshing change from the endless chain restaurants and mall-food that reigns supreme in Phoenix. There's a distinct pub vibe but also the feeling you're getting something extra. An wow, are the pastries everything we've heard about. There's a large variety to choose from...the crust was brown & buttery, and the inside was perfectly cooked to the core. We had the Rosemary Chicken and the Chicken Tikka Masala, both were excellent. So grab yourself a pint and a pasty and you're set! read more

i've seriously had hot pockets that tasted better than the pastie i got here last night. i ordered the royale, and i don't know if it was the mushrooms, or the seasoning they use on the burger, but something was off and it left a yucky taste in my mouth for hours after i ate it. i am a very picky eater, and the pastes cannot be modified. most of them (90%) contain onions or some other strange vegetable that i don't like so it's really not a good place to go unless you like a ton of shit thrown in a pastie. i think it's too much sometimes. the mashed potatoes were dry and not very garlic-y whatsoever. our waiter was an asshole. i ordered a black and tan with strongbow and a nut ale and he informed me that they wouldn't be good together. refusing to take some douchebag's advice, i ordered it anyways and it was delicious. he didn't care to check on our table at all throughout our meal, and no waters were brought to the table...halfway through we got switched to a very nice young lady. i didn't mind the set up of the bar, it was very english pub-like and actually enjoyed the atmosphere. the beer selection is impressive. i was disappointed after all of the great yelp reviews, i was expected to be blown away by these delicious little tasty treats - unfortunately they just didn't get it right this time. read more

my friend recommended this place to me because I mentioned I was going to AZ for a work trip. I was with my big bosses and some other coworkers and we all went to eat here for a quick bite and drink before catching our flights.. My friend made a great rec because all of my coworkers had a good time and I got the credit for picking the location :P We tried three different pasties and all three were delicious. Can't recall the actual names of them.. .one was the curry based one, the other was the thanksgiving one.. and the final one was one with the gravy sauce.. everyone loved each one and we just shared a whole bunch family style Another plus about this place is their collection of beers .. mm... i'm not the biggest fan of beers but the beer that the bartender recommended to me was really good.. .. if i'm in AZ again I'll probably wanna stop here again for sure read more

Awesome! Saldly we waited 1 hour before food arrived to table but man it was delicious. Highly recommend the cottage pie. I'll be ordering ahead next time. read more

You must eat here!!! When my son comes home from college, this is where he wants to eat. The Pilgrim Pasty (pronounced past-ee, not pastey) delivers Thanksgiving year round, and the Chicken Tikka pasty brings you all the way to India. Their scratch-made bread is the best we've EVER had, and it is even better when dunked in their potato-leek-cheese soup. But wait- there's more. You have to save room to share the Chocolate Bread pudding! They serve it with liquid cream or ice cream (or both) and we cry every time we finish it because we have just tasted heaven and have to go back to the real world. Just eat here and thank me later. read more

I went here yesterday after finding it on Yelp. It was just great. In addition to a wonderful pasty, the atmosphere was very cool. The staff was very friendly and service was great too. I wish we had one in San Antonio! read more

WOW!! My Mom used to make us pasty's when we were kids, unfortunatley they were never this good! The Bangers and Mash was excellent, M\my wife had the Shepards Pie which she loved! You can never go wrong here with the beer/cider choices, Strongbow & Boddingtons on tap. I will definately return. read more

i still love the food, the place is just super small its hard to move around and go with a party of more than 4 people. If you wanna try it out and have a large group go to the Mesa location. read more

I came here a while back based on the reviews from yelp. The place is a dark bar with little seating on the side. The vibe is a cool hang out. It was very dark so I can't be sure but the place didn't seem very clean... The menu was so creative! Everything comes as a Pasty which is like a thicker skinned hot pocket!! yum! The flavors are tasty things like curry or pesto chicken overall it is good but I feel the baked shell is a little thick and the whole thing tasted quite doughy. Maybe I'll give it another try? read more

I love, love, love this place! I eat here any chance I get. I love everything about it. The location is convenient for me, the atmosphere is exactly what I like in a restaurant. It's laid back and not stuffy. Staff is attentive but not pushy. Music is eclectic like much of its staff and clientele. I feel at home here. The beer selection is fantastic! The food is out of this world. My usual is The Pilgrim but I have had many others and have never had a pasty I didn't like. This is a regular spot for me and I am SO glad it's in my life! read more

Cool place for a beer and some mouth chunks. Baked all ways with many flavors to offer. Their menu has lots to choose from, we ordered 7 different plates for only 4 people and we had a great time drinking and eating. read more

I absolutely love these fancy ass hot pockets. The rotating vegan options are always amazing and I am always happy to dairylapse for the Carmel Apple dessert. read more

Wow, from the Portland area, but I'll go out of my way to come here any time I come to Phoenix. About 5 minutes from the airport. I had the Guiness stew pasty, it was awesome. Rest of the family had Ruben, oggie, chicken pot pie and cottage pot pie. Everyone loved them. I tried all and they were all great. Guiness had the most flavor. Ruben had red cabbage. read more

I've been eating at the Cornish Pasty Company since shortly after they opened, and I've been consistently impressed. Their menu is constantly expanding, and every single pasty I've tried has been amazing. ALL of them. There are only a few of the veggie pasties I haven't tried. Outside of the original and traditional ones, though, the Rosemary Chicken and the Pilgrim have to be my favorites. There's no need for side dishes or appetizer breads or anything, since every delicious bite you need comes wrapped up neatly in an egg-brushed pastry pocket fresh out of the oven. It's exactly the right amount of food. The owner is an extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and cool fella, and he's always looking at ways to make his business better. He's chosen a great crew to meet the increasing demands of this growing hot spot, since everyone who works there is nice and down-to-earth. I've never seen a single employee lounging or wasting time there. What they do really, really well: (1) All of the FOOD, including the salads and desserts. (2) The beer selection is incredible, full of tasty imports and domestics both on tap and in bottles. (3) The prices are excellent. (4) The decor is sleek and modern, complete with classic rock playing at a quiet yet audible volume. What they could improve on: There's very little room for parties of 4. There's plenty of counter space, a handful of tables for 2, and a custom table for 3 that's kind of neat, but the small area at the back that used to be smaller tables is now one large table. Parties of 4 now take up the whole area (that could seat up to 8), making it awkward for any other big parties coming in. Plus, you can't cut through tables to sit on the bench side of the booth anymore. You have to scoot down the length of the table and then push everyone out again if you have to get up for any reason. (A very small fault, considering that everything else about the place is incredible!) Overall, this is one of Tempe's best little restaurants. Whenever I'm not craving food from a particular location, pasties have become the default food for my whole household. They're always tasty and we just never get tired of them. I have to move out of state soon, and of all the places we've eaten in our 10 years here, I will miss the Cornish Pasty Company the most!!! read more

This place is awesome. Great food, tons of vegetarian options, usually very good service. It is small, so be prepared to possibly wait for a seat or choose to sit at the bar for faster service. They also have great Irish car bombs here. Don't pass up the dessert pasties either...the apple one is yummy! read more

I have tried both the pesto chicken and the spicy asiago chicken. Neither were really that amazing, as I was expecting from the reviews. It was good, but not amazing. My friends that I've come here with agreed. The people who work here are so nice though, service was great. The pasties are very filling, you will leave stuffed (I couldn't finish a full pasty in one sitting). I'll probably go back sometime to try one more pasty, maybe I was just expecting too much? read more
