Col K's Pasty Shop

We stopped for lunch on a cold Saturday in December to sample their famous pasties. We were not disappointed. Most orders are from the drive-thru or takeout but we walked over from Marinette and ate inside at the only table they have. The staff was exceptionally friendly and served us quickly. We ordered one beef and one beef and cabbage pasty and we got them almost instantly They were both hot, generously stuffed, and tasted great and we loved the charm of their kitchy interior.

As a man who will travel unlimited miles for food, you should be surprised that I have never had a pasty before. Especially since I live in Michigan and travel north frequently. For the longest time, I thought they were only things of fairytales, like unicorns or pockets. But you can’t travel 8 feet in the UP without being beckoned by a pasty shop. And because I’m me, I completely missed my opportunity until I was at the Michigan/Wisconsin border. But fear not! I wouldn’t be writing this review if I HADN’T had one! So this pasty establishment was quaint. It had a drive through, a table in the inside and a table on the outside. I mess with that. Sometimes you don’t need the extras. Now, as I learned about the pasty, it seemed like the most basic one was beef and rutabaga. Now, everybody kn

Had the empanada and the breakfast pasties. Both were fantastic. Looking forward to returning!

This was my first time trying pasties and they were so flaky and delicious. We had the soup of the day - chicken spatzel - and the breakfast options - Denver and sausage. We loved them so much we got a couple to go so we could try them throughout the rest of the road trip. Nothing better then homemade food with a local touch. Stop by and enjoy!

Fantastic staff. Fantastic pasties. Great soup. I wish I lived closer.
