Roy's Pasties & Bakery

This was our first time ever trying pasties! We had the chicken and cheddar one, and it was good. We also had a couple cookies and grilled cheese sandwich...all yummy! The restaurant had a nice view and the staff were all friendly. Clean restroom.

My husband and I love Roy's, the breakfast pasty and scones are our FAVORITE! But what really takes the cake (literally) were these adorable cupcakes they made for my son's 3rd birthday. So much attention to detail and they were so delicious! 💛 Such a wonderful business for our small town.

We visited Ron’s after Christmas and before the new year . Tried the classic pasty 16 oz . It was a lot of pasty!! The filling was fabulous. Definitely made to perfection. We also muffin and apple fritter but I was too full to taste it at the restaurant. It is peaceful and quiet . Beautiful scenery. Highly recommended it.

I'm not from the area (I'm from Illinois), so I didn't know what to expect here. Needless to say, I was very pleased with the food, especially the breakfast pasty.

We stayed up here in Houghton for a few days to check the area out, and we came across this place. We came here not just once, but twice, because the first day, they were out of breakfast pasties. Because they were out, we opted for some breakfast sandwiches with bacon. It almost blew my mind how savory it was when I took my first bite. We also grabbed some pastries each day, just to be safe. I absolutely loved the apple fritter and the cherry turnover.

On the second day, we managed to snag some breakfast pasties, and oh my, were they delicious. So delicious. You have to come in early for them, though, because coming in at 9 am is too late to get your hands on them!

Thank you for having us. We'll be sure to come back in the future!

Stopped for a traditional pasty. Unfortunately, they had already sold out so my husband and I got the chicken and broccoli instead. First time having that variety and they were very tasty. Clean dining area with great view.

I made the mistake of going near the end of the day, and they were sold out of fresh pasties so I ended up getting some frozen to take home and I have to say they were some of the best I have ever had. Full of flavor and filling. Went back a few days later and picked up a few to bring back home and also got a wild berry pie that was delicious. We will be back next year when we vacation near Copper City.

Loved this place! I do my research but found this place solely by chance. Pulled down a road for a photo opportunity on the way up to Copper Harbor and we discovered a tasty spot with a very awesome view.

They were out of the Turkey Cranberry pasties but was able to get a chicken and broccoli. It was good. But the Strawberry Rhubarb Bar was delicious. Also the Salted Caramel Cookie is not too shabby especially if you warm it slightly. Busy place but great parking and tables right on the water if you would like to eat outside. The Asiago, garlic, herb bread is yummy too.

I consider myself a traditionalist when it comes to pasties and the ingredients used, and Roy's traditional pasties are really yummy, with an excellent crust. However a friend convinced me to try Roy's"pasty with a kick", and boy I'm glad I did! The little kick of spicy heat and flavor from jalapenos and hot sauce are just right, and not overpowering. I highly recommend both!

We’re currently on a van life road trip from California to Michigan and we just made it to Michigan! We camped nearby and saw this pastie spot. I’ve tried pasties in the past and wasn’t a big fan but the restaurant looked lovely from the outside so I decided to give it a try- glad I did because this one was way better.

I ordered a vegetarian pastie and my partner ordered a turkey cranberry pastie. Both were very good. I definitely am glad we got water with them because it made me thirsty.

Also ordered a cinnamon roll with maple frosting on top.

Definitely recommend if you’re in the area to stop by :)

The goodies sell out fast at Roy's, so get there early and often. Eat in or take out their great pasties and other bakery treats. Nice view of the bridge and canal. The staff are friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. Enjoy.

Busy time when we were there as there were Nordic and alpine ski events happening in town and by late afternoon some menu items were sold out so go early if you want something specific! The staff recommended alternatives and we had plenty of food and enjoyed it much. Chili was too spicy for kids taste but very good, pasties we had were all great and even good later eaten cold after a round of skiing. Place is tidy and clean, always busy but we found seats each time. Highly recommend at least picking up food while passing through town but an easy stop and quick meal if you have time to sit.

Best pasty I've had in a while!! Also, we got a donut and croissant as well, both of which were incredible!!
I got a Bismark donut, and the filling was amazing- not your normal filling- go try it!!
My husband's croissant was literally the best croissant I've ever tried- so light and airy.
Also, the staff were super kind and friendly. Not a long wait, and a nice area to sit and enjoy your scrumptious food!

Excellent, authentic Cornish pasty! After touring the Quincy mine, and wondering about life for the Cornish miners in the mid 1800s, it was a treat to taste what they ate for their daily lunch. We were pleasantly surprised to find such a good variety of beautiful baked treats. We split a meat pasty -- it weighed a whole pound! -- on the deck overlooking the water and the lift bridge.

Outstanding, 5 solid starts. If you come to UP for the real pasty, this is the best you can find the original classic ones, buy also some tastier variations.

This bakery does also a great job on donuts and tarts. I definitely recommend it to anybody passing in the area.

Dark chocolate tort. Looks great and tastes phenomenal 😋. Would go here again for sure. I wanted to try their pasties so I will be back.
Edit:
I went back recently, and decided to try a pastie. I tried a not so traditional one. It was the chicken and broccoli one, and oh my goodness, it was absolutely great!!

ABSOLUTE HALL OF FAME MEAL. We went back a second time on the way out of town. Phenomenal bakery. The pasties were fresh and stuffed with outstanding ingredients. A MUST VISIT.

Best pasties around. You also get a good view of the bridge

We got our delivery of Roy’s pasties. Threw those pasties in oven 350 degrees for 36 minutes. Did not even that first and they were perfect. My fav is breakfast pasty. Wish I was there in UP!! Thank you Roy! From Chicagoland

Roy's is one of the best places to eat in the area. Many people talk about their pasties, which are good, but honestly I personally think that is one of their weaker points. Finding a good pasty in the area is easy and you have many options. Where Roy's absolutely shines is in their soups and sandwiches.

The soup changes regularly and they are all top-notch. My personal favorite is the "Roasted Red Pepper Gouda" soup. But they are all very good, especially during the winter. Best place for a bowl of soup in the Keweenaw I have found so far.
Sandwiches are in the same vein. They are all great with some familiar faces, and some unique offerings. My favorites are the "hot Italian beef" and "the Superior". But I have not been disappointed by anything else I've ordered. The worst part is sometimes they are out of beef or sprouts frequently.
Overall a great place to eat, and are the top or near the top for everything they offer. Service is pretty good as well. Also as a bakery you can buy some great bread and pastries if desired.
