Our Cornish Pasty Shop in Brighton and Hove

First time visit and found the pasties very dry and the pastry very thick , my husband also had a mince pie and again the pastry very thick and dry could not eat it all

Great traditional cornish pasty! Absolutely delicious. A touch pricey, but if you're looking for an authentic cornish pasty, this is the place to go. They also have some very tasty locally made bottled sodas. Looking forward to going again.

Being a coeliac, a GF pasty is one thing that I've not come across and my gosh this did not disappoint. The care that's taken not to cross contaminate was massively appreciated. My friend had a normal pasty and was also really chuffed with it. Highly recommend.

Being from Cornwall, I've had a lot of pasties in my life and I can say, with confidence, that the traditional Cornish pasty I had here was the worst that I have ever had. Allegedly the best pasty shop outside of Cornwall or Devon, but I feel like that is more reflective of the low quality of the other shops, not the high quality of this one. The pastry was under cooked, the stuffing was dry and all around just did not taste good. Admittedly, the other flavoured pasties looked passable, but at the prices they are asking for a tiny pasty, I wouldn't go near them again.

Try the pepper steak pasty. So good! Very friendly service, thank you!

was ready before the predicted time and the staff were absolutely lovely🥰 pasty was warm and absolutely delicious, can't wait to order again!!

Un lugar precioso. Sirve un gran café y deliciosos pasteles de Cornualles. Muy pintoresco y tan agradable de encontrar un lugar que es independiente y no forma parte de una cadena espantosa. Volveré otra vez.

I've been eating at this pasty shop for years. The owners have created a great atmosphere. I love the choice of vegan pasties and cakes. Sitting outside alot I've got into conversations with people from all over the world. Really friendly staff. I eat there at least twice a week.

Was a lovely regular of mine where you can enjoy the very finest, freshly-baked pasties and an array of lovingly-made cakes. No farting around - just honest, decent grub and a great location to watch folk wandering the North Laine. My issue with the service is down to the rude attitude of not the owner Ian and his wife (who are lovely), but the woman who is their shop manager. I will give an entirely honest account here: She knows who I am because we have bantered weekly for months but it is mostly around being absolutely awkward with me always. Now, I assumed she didn't really dislike me but that it was her dry humour. I have tried to laugh off her telling other staff not to serve me or charge more but was getting anxious that she really didn't appreciate my custom. This came to a head today when she absolutely insulted me in front of her colleague and anyone else who may have been in. I suggested that it wasn't appropriate to be critiscising a regular customer but she would not apologise and I now feel uncomfortable returning to what had been a regular place to relax and enjoy lunch. Ian is aware of these issues with her, because he has had to explain to his other staff that they are not to oblige her when she instructs them to treat me with contempt. What a shame one person who claims it is "their shop" is being allowed to call the shots when it comes to every aspect of a place where she is an employee only.

Do not miss their Gluten Free Traditional Pasty. So fresh and delicious

Bought a gluten free Meat pasty. It was the worst pasty I've ever eaten, pastry bad filling awful. £8.50 very over priced wouldn't give 50p for it. Don't recommend it to anyone animal or human,don't think Even the seagulls would eat it.

Great vegan selection of pasties, sausage rolls and tarts.

no comment it’s a cornish pasty!

The gluten free pastry was incredibly disappointing. £8.50 for a mediocre sized pastry that was warmed up for me, in the microwave, this should have been warning enough. The pastry was lacking any flavour which was the cherry on top. I respect it can be awkward catering for gluten free but this is just not how you do it. I’d honestly recommend removing this from your menu if you insist on charging £8.50 for it. Atleast the gluten free cakes looked nice….

Very rude women, seemed to be the manager or owner. Great place and food, but her customer service was rude and blunt.

best gluten free options in the whole of Brighton

Probably the best pasty I've had outside of Cornwall Praise indeed as. I have a Cornish heritage. And you eat them out of the bag eat in or takeaway. The only way.

Delicious and good value! Lots of veggie and vegan options

Very nice place to enjoy a homemade cornish pastry in Brighton. Great selection! Highly recommend.

Best cakes in the whole of Brighton , Hands down. Delicious, a vegan stoners dream come true, even non vegans will devour the cakes. Proper cakes. Pasties are good too

Every bit of food here is DELICIOUS! The pasties are exceptional, the carrot cake now has legendary status and if you’re passing at Christmas, do not miss the opportunity to grab some incredible mince pies! Can’t recommend these guys enough!

Delicious selection of vegetarian and vegan pasties as well as classic meat ones, and the best mince pies in the business. Super friendly local business!

My oldest kid is vegan and they love the pasties and cakes from here. Always a brilliant selection! I love the meat pasties (so filling and great quality ingredients) and the mince pies at Christmas. We order a couple of mixed boxes every year for ourselves and as gifts. Just watch out a seagull doesn't try and nick your pasty!

Amazing staff, amazing food..and the best mince pies in town..

Friendly little spot to grab a super tasty pasty, there are plenty of vegan options and the cakes are amazing! so yummy!

This shop is a real gem, for relaxed sitting in (indoors & outdoors if the weather is good!) or for a handy, convenient takeaway lunch. The staff are friendly and efficient and there’s a great range of pasties, cakes and drinks. A lovely change from sandwiches! I always visit several times whenever I’m in Brighton

Had the Gluten free vegan mushroom pie, it was absolutely inedible, the pastry was so dry you could barely class it as food, it would be better used to patch a hole in the wall. From what I understand these are brought in and not made on site, and for a whopping £8 I would avoid it if you're gluten free. **I DID NOT GET THE PIE FOR FREE DESPITE OWNER RESPONSE**

Best vegan cakes & pasty’s in Brighton, lovely little cafe with friendly helpful staff and an amazing range of cakes many being vegan! It’s our go to cafe in north laine, highly recommended!

Lovely shop, lovely people. They have an amazing range of pasties and cakes to suit all diets. Thrilled to find gluten free cakes that cœliacs can trust!

amazing mince pies 🥧 we had the lemon curd and the custard and they were exceptional. Also extensive range of vegan cakes - perfect for a birthday gift. Friendly service and popular lunch spot for visitors to Brighton.

Meat pasties and vegan pasties are first class! Love the good selection for lunch. The selection of cakes is epic too 😋

I've been a customer of the shop since they opened in 2005 and they're most certainly a jewel in Brighton's crown. Their pasties are world class but actually only a small part of what they offer. There's also a fantastic selection of cakes, brownies and other sweet delicacies that are all hand made on the premises by the proprietor. A significant proportion of both sweet and savoury offerings are vegan, they've been providing these options since the shop opened and long before the high street chains followed suit. Plainly and simply their food is delicious, served in charming premises - eat in or take away - by lovely staff. Great drinks too, including excellent coffee. I can't recommend them enthusiastically enough. Brilliant. A++

The most delicious food ! Vegan chicken and leek and vegan cakes! Also my favourite coffee In Brighton. Lovely to sit in in the winter or take to the beach in the summer !

The best pasties in Brighton, plus cakes and whatever other yums they feel like knocking up are all divine. Don't miss out

Vegans avoid! Bought an overly expensive vegan pasty which had meat in, owner wasn’t overly bothered, non-apologetic, and kept saying it had never happened before (I doubt that). So many better vegan places in the lanes, especially at that price.

super yummy pasty’s & lovely staff

Delicious vegan pasty, using the original Cornish Pasty recipe, with soya mince instead of meat - divine!

10/10 - Delicious. Fresh. Authentic. If you're in Brighton and you're looking for some artisan shopping and you like pies, this delightful find is for you. Catering to all tastes: chicken, traditional, peppered steak, and vegan/vegetarian mixes, they have a fresh and piping hot pie for everyone. A warm and cozy atmosphere by genuinely friendly staff. They also serve tasty deserts and the most amazing homemade hot chocolate that's as thick fresh honey. £7.50 on average and worth every penny. Pay with cash or card. Seats 25 - 30. What a gem❤️

Brighton & The Laines have an abundance of bakeries & coffee shops. Stopped as this little one (as the mince pies in the window looked delicious) Friendly staff, cafe as you’d expect had a very rustic & cool vibe to it. Mince pies were clearly freshly cooked. I had a traditional one, which was delicious. They do also have some unique choices such as a peanut butter mince pie 🤔. Not cheap, but good.

£6.50 for a pasty is INSANE ⚠️ So I went for a sausage roll. When I spend £3 on a sausage roll I expect it to be a quality Cumberland and not the low grade pink mushy stuff I received! It reminded me of the sausage rolls I used to buy at school for 50p. I tried giving it to a sea gull and even they wouldn’t eat it!! 🛑

Love myself a pasty when hungover.. It's a small shop, so no atmosphere really. Still it's pleasant and the staff are always nice. Though don't think I've seen the same member of staff twice. Maybe they have a high turnover on staff. Go at least once a month.

Average cornish pasty and Greggs sausage rolls at North laine prices

I ordered a gluten free leek and mushroom pie, my partner ordered a beef pasty. My pie had floppy pastry, and very little dry flavourless filling. The manager was extremely rude to me when i explained this. She told me that everyone else loves them (my fault) and that they cost her a lot of money to buy in. It had cost me £7.90 which was ridiculous anyway. She also told me that is very difficult to make a pie taste nice if it is gluten free and vegan, which make me question why she sells them. I asked for the GF traditional pasty as a replacement- she looked astounded and demanded why I had bought a vegan pie when I'm not a vegan (not her business actually but for the record I liked the sound of mushroom and leek pie!). After arguing with me for about 5 minutes she gave me the gluten free traditional pasty. The pastry was still very poor and floppy, plenty of meat but again very dry inside. My partners gluten rich pasty was very ordinary. We used to love this place and I've eaten many a pasty there before. Never again. We paid a total of £17.50 for a coffee, a tea, two dry pasties and an unpleasant experience from the manager.

Amazing Cornish pasty’s and sausage rolls. Clean restaurant and great location. Friendly staff, if you have any questions then ask the staff!

We stopped by for pasties for lunch and after seeing the cake in the counter went back later in the day for coffee and cake. Friendly service, tasty goods, would definitely recommend.

Acogedor. Pasteles sabrosísimos. Ubicación perfecta

Grabbed some food from The Pasty shop in Brighton station before the train home. It was warm and tasty but needed a little more seasoning hence the very good rating. I would definitely recommend.

I love a good pasty as much as the next person, so The Pasty Shop ticked all the right boxes for me. I got the perfect lunch for my train trip to Edinburgh. Plus, this little hole in the wall has a great variety of pasties to choose from.

I went here late afternoon wanting a quick lunch, and was not disappointed. I had a vegan sausage roll, my partner a vegetarian pasty. Both tasted really good and fresh. The seating area inside is nice, and tables outside. The place is very clean and I saw the member of staff cooking and it all looked high standards. The member of staff was friendly as well.

This is my niece’s fav pasty shop, so, we came here for lunch. We had the traditional Cornish pasty & I found it very salty, with good chunks of beef & veg in the pasty except the beef was over cooked. Pasty dough itself was crispy & well done. Service was great but the place is a bit cramped.

Fantastic Cornish pasties, far better than you bog standard highstreet savoury pastry retailers. Lots of various flavours both meat and veggie so a great option to choose from. I sat in the shop which was a little cramped but kept me out of the sudden downpour plus used their toilets in the basement. Would recommend a pasty to anyone, pastry was crispy and buttery and standard filling was very tasty.

Lovely tasty traditional Cornish pasty, my son had a curry one....both way better than anything else in Brighton....and 10 X better than ginsters.... quite expensive though...£5.60 I think....but yummy! Friendly helpful team in the shop too....

Cakes... so many vegan cakes!! I’m not a fan of the pasties, they’re a little too dry for me. The vegan sausage roll is nice as is the soup (when vegan and available). Great for lunch you can sit in or take away. Either way it’s nice and the staff are lovely.

Very good service and friendly support

Stopped here for a Coffee when at Brighton Station and must say that their Coffee (Americano) is very good compared to some at other stations - with the price being fairly reasonable as well. Not a lot at Brighton Station to choose from anyway, but would look to choosing this one again for a coffee should I need to. We also had an Earl Grey Tea which was fine.

Nicest Cornish Pasty I've ever had. Being vegan you don't often find vegan pasties, let alone good ones. But this place serves three kinds, as well as vegan sausage rolls and vegan cakes. The mock chicken and leek was incredible, try it out if your nearby.

Friendly staff, great pasties, and fantastic cakes. A favourite of ours

This was a lovely cafe, the pasties were fabulous.

Best pasties in Brighton 😍 Staff are so friendly and welcoming and the homemade cakes are to die for

Very nice pasty but prices too high to ever revisit

I had raspberry lemon cake and it tasted delicious. The welcoming atmosphere is what makes me feel happy to come again whenever I visit Brighton again 🌸

We reserved a table for a relaxing Sunday lunch on a cold bright afternoon. We were shown to our table immediately and brought menus. All good so far. Unfortunately the timeframes from ordering food and drinks, to them arriving at the table, were clearly out of sync. To the point that we had to alert the waiting staff that we had been waiting for 1 hour 20 minutes for our dishes and that other tables had received food even though they arrived long after us. Thankfully the situation was resolved without fuss and when the food arrived, it was incredibly tasty. Thank you for a good outcome. We will return.

I had Sunday roast lunch with friends. This pub was heaving with people and extremely noisy. The food was presented as a large heap of food all piled on top of each other. It was very good value, but not really my thing. I would have preferred a smaller portion and not piled on the plate. I don’t think I would go again, but for the many people there it was just fine.

The decor, the atmosphere and the staff are great, but unfortunately the food is disappointing. The Walrus was really busy at Saturday lunchtime and you can't help but wonder if it has become a victim of its own success and slightly over ambitious. The quality of the food was very average. Two main courses were taken off the bill as two of our party of six were not happy with them: dry burger and a very oily artichoke and butternut squash salad. The oil was of indeterminate origin and certainly did not taste of olive oil; our 2 Italian friends can vouch for that! The added halloumi was battered and deep fried as opposed to grilled... Chips seemed like the oven variety and everything was just rather bland. Service was really friendly and attentive for such a busy venue.

I have decided to start my Brighton's Best Nachos hunt here, it may very well end here. Delicious and generously loaded nachos in a cozy atmosphere a little removed from the loud hum of the main street. I also had an old favourite, Cesar Salad, also delicious! Great food and friendly staff. I highly recommend.

Cute place with fresh hot pasties, recommended for a quick bite!

Excellent options for a vegan sausage roll. Fast service

Friendly place, great service and the Cornish Pasties are fantastic. I quite often stop here for their cappuccino, which is truly delicious. The staff and owners are lovely, you're treated as a person not just another customer.

Hot, fresh and tasty Cornish Pasties, super friendly service too.

Recently been introduced to this place by a friend and I’ve found myself to have kept coming back at least once a week. The pasties are fantastic and the selection of vegan options is great and very tasty. A very good selection of cakes too, also vegan. Today tried one of their winter drink specials of a chocolate orange latté and it was lovely. They also have some other hot drink specials too, I’m quite fond of their biscoff latté. Generally a lovely little place

Had their vegan mince pie and it’s the best I’ve ever had! I will be back for more to give family and friends - vegan and none vegan as they’re so good.

Amazing Thai veg pasties alllllways 🫶🏻 vegan sausage roll is excellent, not to mention the cakes x 🌈 which are also excellent

Lovely staff and lovely food! Brighton is expensive but I’d rather spend more money here than Greggs!

Ordered TWO pasties. £15 Order arrived missing one of them and told by driver that I had to contact Just eat to arrange replacement. If I’d ordered a really complex order I’d understand…, but it was literally TWO pasties and at £6.50 a pop you expect a certain amount of care when packing order

Have been coming here for years, and always enjoy coming here for vegan sausage rolls and vegan cakes. Nice to see recently they have expanded the space inside. I have always found the prices to be fair and the food is good value.

The best place ! Delicious taste and flavors . Very fresh! Coffee is very good as well. I was pleased with this store. Definitely my next time in Brighton I will visit it again

£7.90 for a large traditional pasty. It’s a ridiculous price for a bit of pastry with a meat and veg filling. After disagreeing with the man behind the counter I left without a pasty since the price is a rip off. I ended up going to the new Wendy’s up at Churchill square where for the same price I got a triple burger with fries and a coke. Some shops in Brighton seem to think it’s ok to overcharge it’s customers. I have bought pasties from the shop many times in the past but myself and the freinds I told about the price will never return.

Nice pasty but we'll over priced has the beef one hardly any meat inside £5.90 for a small pasty seems they need to add more meat and less vegetables will not be going back here again.

Nice coffee always our first stop in Brighton

A well needed break from a shopping trip, this cannot be beaten.

Had vegan pasties. They're alright, nothing amazing. Nice coffee. It's a small chilled place.

Jus bad time to arrive but o theirs a taste of home

Good little shop for tea, coffee and pasty cakes but unfortunately no gluten free options. Also, quite sunny in morning and early afternoon. Will come back.

Excellent variety of pasties and seasonal mince pies
