We will almost...
Read moreI am so happy to have found Mounts Bay Pasty Company. Their pasties are easily the best in Cornwall and service is always with a smile, even when the shop is really busy. The medium pasty is generously sized. The pastry is the best I have ever had. I don't know what they do to it, but please continue. Best of all, I love my pasties when the gravy seeps through the bottom and catches. So much...
