We stop here for dinner as soon as we arrive in Traverse City every summer. Pasties are delicious, the fruit salad is a must, and many other items to choose from. The food is very fresh and the staff are always friendly. We look forward to our pastie dinner every year!

We go here a couple times a year and we know what we are in for. Good Pasties are always fresh and hot. This place has been around awhile but still focused with good service and great pasties!

Cousin Jenny's is a must stop for me whenever I am in Traverse City.I have sampled pastys all over nothern Michigan and Cousin Jennies are by far the best. Their salads and are also delicious. You can eat in or take it to go. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Really annoying owners. Just dang chicken pot pies. Not pheasant under glass. Women who obviously owns the places orders workers and customers around.

I had the Italian, my husband the chicken, and my mother in law the steak. They were all delicious! Key lime pie for dessert was also incredible.

Huge selection of pasties, perfectly cooked; combine with an awesome fruit or veggie salad. Comfy, attractive restaurant with friendly staff, lovely ambience. Low prices make it my favorite place to lunch when in TC.

A bright, friendly corner that serves the best Pasties in many variations. A Pastie makes a great carry on meal for a flight - a feature noted for years by the Cornish miners who invented these pocket pies.

Since my husband is from Scotland, I'm always looking for a place to eat that we can get something from his childhood. This place totally fit that bill! Loved the service, loved the prices and loved the pastie! My only regret is that I didn't try the fruit salad. My gosh, that stuff looked good!

I do like Cousin Jenny's, but it is hard to sit down and eat there. Their prices are quite high as well. I am a local and this is not the place I come to eat lunch usually.
