A meal for £3.50 - brilliant! Cornish or Devon pasty? Crimping at the the top so Devon style? It didn't matter as it was delicious and filling!

A lovely bakery which makes the best scones in St Ives, and believe me I have tried a few! The pasties are also very good. Highly recommended!

Ignore what all the other pasty shops claim. Pengenna's are THE best in St Ives. They are massive and not for the faint hearted.

Although I'm Cornish and I don't normally stray from traditional pasties, their lamb and mint pasty is the best one they do. They're pretty big too.

These were quite nice but could have been better, the seagulls enjoyed the pastry. Would suggest there are other and better places to buy them

A nice pasty, very generous in size. The filling goes right to the edge and was well seasoned and full of meat as well as vegetables.

Great variety of pasties, and VERY reasonable. We paid less than $5 US for HUGE pasties, and they were tasty! We have had a lamb and mint one. Very fresh. The service wasn't terribly friendly, but the food was great.

What more can I say, cooooorrrrrrrrr. Absolutely scrummy pasty. Full of meat and vegetables, lovely pastry, nice and thin, didnt dominate like some do. We found that one pasty was enough for both of us, they are huge and good value for money.
