We came here to get the Cornish pasty experience whilst visiting the Lizard. We arrived about 1:45 - 2:00 ish, and ordered a regular pasty and a cheese pasty. however we were told we would have to wait 45 minutes as some types had run out and a new batch was being cooked. Fortunately we could pop somewhere else and come back although it looked like the norm was that people pre ordered, but it would be inconvenient if you were planning to go elsewhere & not come back. My partner described the service as something from ‘French & Saunders’or ‘Victoria Wood’ on tv’ as being a cross between chaos & comedy. We came back and collected and then found a place to eat them, we found them tasty, miles better than pre packed supermarket ones. Some other reviews have complained about the salt or meat content but i did not have any complaints, there should be veg in the recipe. Overall I’d recommend it, although heed the advice on possibly pre ordering or ordering, then visiting the Lizard and getting it on...
Read moreThe cost of living definitely was noticed. A year ago (June 2022), We brought large pasty n a large cheese/onion pasty, very tasty loads of beef chunks, potatoes, n swede. Melted chesse for the vegetarian version.Brought 5 pasties partly cooked for freezing. When we return back (Oct 2023), we look forward to the best pasties in England so disappointed. Price up by £1 far enough, but the Strink flation kicked in, about 5 small pieces of beef, very salty probably added MSG to enchance the flavour and the cheese/,onion version - the cheese still shredded inside the pastry not melted. I wouldn't mind paying a £2 increase if the standard of quality was still there. Only one positive the pastry was still flakey! Went to a chain in Cornwall called Philps in Helston and St. Micheal Mount had better filling and pepperly. Warrens in Cornwall was the same par of Annie's (Greggs equivalent) but at least cheaper when we tried in Falmouth. I give Annie's one last go next year. Hopefully, it...
Read moreVery disappointing. After hearing all the hype for years I've now sampled two of Ann's pasties and can say they are average at best. The pasties were ok but could have been so much better. Definitely not as good as others I have tried in the region whilst growing up in Cornwall and on many visits since. The pasty?...well, the pastry was rather chewy and lacking in flavour. I was halfway through mine before I encountered a tiny speck of beef and there was actually hardly any meat in the entire pasty (as others have commented). It was mostly potato and swede. Rather salty and not enough pepper. Whilst we were eating ours on Lizard Point we were joined by another couple who had just bought Ann's pasties and we were all in agreement that we've had better. If you're going to claim your Cornish Pasties are as good as you say, they are going to have to be to be...
