There’s nothing like a well-crafted meat pie to make your tastebuds jump for joy. This snug British eatery combines the best of old-world cooking with an atmosphere that makes you feel like you’ve wandered into an English country pub. And if you’ve never had a Cornish pasty, this is the spot to try one.
Cornish pasties are a type of hand pie made with a thick crust and crimped edges, and the Cornish Pasty Company makes the best in the state.
Popular with miners, pasties were made in a distinctive purse shape so that miners could eat the filling from the crust and discard the soiled portion that had touched their dirty hands.
Don’t miss the rosemary steak pie, which is served with mustard cream and comes filled with marinated steak, roasted red peppers and potatoes, brie, and fresh rosemary.
Not a carnivore? There are plenty of vegetarian options here. You might want to try the broccoli cauliflower macaroni and cheese pasty, which comes stuffed with elbow pasta in a homemade cheese sauce.
You can find the Cornish Pasty Company at 51 Massachusetts Ave., Boston, Mass. Click here to check out their website and see a current menu. For more of the best eats in Massachusetts, click here.
