| - My boyfriend and I met my friend Allison and her husband Joel here for dinner. They had been here before and said it was really good. My first time ever having a pasty, past-eee is how you pronounce it. So what is a pasty? It's like if a hot pocket and a calzone had a baby. There are a bunch of different fillings and flavors to choose from, and then the fillings are baked in a delicious, crusty shell.
I started with a Wells Banana Bread beer, which is one of my favorites! The beer was really good and sooooo refreshing on a hot summer night. It was uncomfortably hot inside the restaurant. We asked if they could turn down the ac, but it was already down as low as it could go. Apparently they are getting their ducts looked at because they are obviously not working well. We were all sweating which did not make for a pleasant dining experience. Luckily I had the ice cold beer to help keep me cool.
I had a hard time deciding what to eat, as I always do. I ended up choosing the Cheese Steak pasty and my bf got the Royale which is a cheeseburger and fries. I also ordered a side of chips (fries) with garlic and jalapeƱos. The chips came out first, and they were a little too well-done because the garlic was burnt. I probably wouldn't order these again. My pasty was filled with delicious steak, cheese, mushrooms and green peppers. It came with red wine gravy and mustard cream on the side. The red wine gravy was bomb. The mustard cream was tasty as well. I tried my bf's royale, and it was good, but I definitely preferred my pasty over his. As if the food and beer wasn't enough, I decided to get the sticky toffee pudding for dessert. It was to die for! I love dessert and this is now one of my favorites. This place is great. It's a new concept, unlike anything I have had before. I will definitely be back.
