Miners Pasty Kitchen

The BEST pasty and customer service! A must visit! See our full review at YouTube: Mancl Adventures: Best Things To Do at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

It's a "thing" to eat a pasty while traveling in Michigan's Upper Peninsula - a meal staple for miners back in the day. They are still popular today - perhaps more so, with a variety of ingredients, but always baked inside that flaky crust. So, when visiting Munising recently, I stopped by Miners ... two days in a row, and got The Yooper (classic). The first night I also indulged in ice cream - I believe it was blueberry & cheesecake. Definitely worth the visit(s).

The pasties were excellent and the staff were warm and welcoming.
I tried the breakfast and the yooper pasty. The filling was delicious and the pasty was baked to absolute perfection. It wasn't too crispy nor too moist, just right.
Would highly recommend.

Took two trips to the UP in Fall 2021. Stayed in Munising for the first one and fell in love with the pasties from Miners Pasty Kitchen! My daughter and I were glad to have the Vegan option available, whilst husband had a traditional beef. All of them were terrific in my humble opinion. We tried pasties wherever we could and these by far were the best! Even went out of our way on second trip to pick some up for home!

Although it's been awhile since my last Pasty. I have to say this was the best I have ever eaten. We had the Yooper, and it was filled with flavor, the crust was perfect and flakey, the filling had just the right amount of moisture to it not soggy or dry. The service was super friendly and she was happy to educate you about their pasties if you have never had one.
