How come I didn't know ANYTHING about this hand pie place until just yesterday?? According to one of the photos posted by previous diners, this place has been operating for at least 5 years. And yet, by looking at the number of reviews and photos that have been posted as of late February 2026, this place could utilize more raves by well-wishing foodies like me so off I went to check out the cozy-looking shop at high noon on a beautiful Wednesday. Upon stepping inside, I was greeted by a friendly man upfront. Told him it'd be a few minutes before I could make a decision on what I would want. While I was pondering another guest came in so I let her go ahead of me. Once the guest was finished, I proceeded to ask the man upfront a question about Drover. I really didn't know what he said about it whether they were completely out of therm or they come in a whole pie size or they only sell them frozen. I decided not to bother about it as I, all of a sudden, became bashful. I hence ordered something else as alternative: the Stout and the Foreman. I chose the option of "cold" instead of "warm" where I would simply take the frozen hand pies home with me and bake them in my oven (the instructions are on the stickers along with the names of the pies. No rocket science here!) The man's kind and thoughtful demeanor was seen throughout the whole takeout process. I felt at ease. As soon as I was home, I got my oven going at the temperature of 360 degrees and started baking the beautiful hand pies. At the end of the 40 minutes during, I went a few minutes to broil them to create extra crispness. Voila! My hand pies were beautifully cooked for consumption. Vegan/vegetarian curry one - Very good and solid pie. The amount of curry wasn't overwhelming or overpowering in any way. Perfectly salted where I didn't feel like I was eating something unhealthily salty. All the other ingredients such as the potatoes were seen inside it. Stout - I thought I would like the curry one more but I ended up liking this one a bit more than the first one. The perfect marination of the meat with the perfect amount of salt created such a hearty flavor. The texture of the meat was superbly tenderized. This one hit the spot in my empty stomach to an unexpected degree. Wow, their hand pies made my late afternoon meal so satisfying. Those densely crafted pieces are worth a try so if you are looking for a quick but hearty snack in the heart of busy Cherry Creek neighborhood this should be your place. read more

I was visiting for business and stumbled upon this place. I knew I had to go in because my great grandmother would make pasty for us growing up. The miner, get it don't hesitate! It tastes exactly like she would have made it. It instantly took me back to my childhood memories. Portions sizes are very generous, pastry is crisp and holds up, filling is flavorful. 10/10 read more

Pastry Republic gets a A++ for me! These bad boys are hefty and filling! I first had these at a Halloween party that my friend hosted and had them catered over 50 pasties of different varieties! I had the miner and shepherd since then and have been my go to whenever I visit their cherry creek location. The pastry is flaky and buttery but strong enough to hold it's massive filling. Each bite is savory and a little bit of hot sauce was such a great compliment to the meaty and potatoey filling. The staff who work here are also great and deserve praise. Who needs hot pockets or burritos if you're on the fly, these pasties will last you all day! read more

My first time ordering, I got the breakfast, New Mexico and it was absolutely delightful! 10/10 I'm definitely coming back.

Cute little spot for breakfast or lunch, with yummy British pastries. They offer a nice selection of sweet and savory pasties, with some vegetarian options. My husband and I visited for breakfast, and I devoured a South of the Border pasty filled with eggs, chorizo, jalapeños, onions, cheddar, potatoes, and green chiles. It was very flavorful and each portion is quite generous. My husband picked the Miner, with steak, rutabaga, potatoes, onions, and house seasoning. He also liked it a lot. There are a couple tables both inside and outside, and you can also buy the pasties frozen. Coffee and ice-cream is available. read more

Popped in right before a facial appointment I had and was craving something with meat. Everyone get the lamb kabob turnover. IT WAS BOMB! Cute little place which wouldn't be best for groups but the food was great. I love salt so this had the perfect amount but could be a lot for some that don't care much for salt. I think the flavors melded so well together and the meat was tender and juicy. This wasn't a try meat turnover (or empanada if you will) at all. Service was friendly and helpful and I will be back in when in the Cherry Creek north area. read more

Great place, reasonable and awesome fresh quality ingredients! Denver native but first time after wanting to try it for years! Matt, the owner was great, welcoming, explained menu and even offered a free drink or cookie since it was first time. Very good! Parking was simple (Cherry Creek North!) read more

Phenomenal pasty spot for any time of day! The crust is a beautiful thing- buttery, flaky, yet super structurally sound to hold any variety of fillings. Have never had a selection that wasn't delicious and piping hot, and the owner's hospitality always goes above and beyond. Especially love the Farmer (think garlicky broccoli cheddar soup but in pasty form) and the classic Shepherd, my partner loves the breakfast pasties like the Countey Road and South of the Border. Cannot recommend enough!! read more

Got the kabob one and it's absolutely delicious my favorite one. Perfect amount of feta to lamb meat and so light and fresh. Service was great. Fast casual dining experience. Great vibes and even have ice cream if you have a sweet tooth. read more

This place was recommended and Pasty Republic did not disappoint! Hubs reminisced about trips to London and he said these were spot-on. Along with traditional pasties, they have vegetarian options, breakfast, and frozen to go. The owner is a great guy and is always wanting to create unusual flavor combinations. You must go to PASTY REPUBLIC!!! read more

What a great little establishment! Large variety of pasties- savory, vegetarian, special, dessert and breakfast options. They are nice and warm to eat right away- two tables in the store to sit and eat at. He also has all the pasties frozen in the back to take home and bake as well. If you want to score a deal, you can sometimes get "yesterday's pasties" at a BoGo deal/$5 each. Owner is super friendly and welcoming. There is ice cream too! Really enjoyed my visit here- thank you! read more

Perfectly hits the spot when I'm craving a pasty. If you haven't had a pasty before I highly recommend the miner, it's classic. Very grateful they're here:) read more

Great spot, super friendly staff and quick service! I went for the hand pie with eggs potato and Greene hatch chili- my only "complaint" is I wanted more spice or maybe a side of Colorado green chili sauce? Otherwise amazing and super filling, big enough to split. read more

My wife and I stopped here for a quick bite and were not disappointed. The pastry hits the spot, Perfectly flaky! Beware they are PACKED with fillings so one is more than enough.

Stopped in to grab some packable snacks for a golf game, ended up enjoying one of the best meat pies I've ever had in my life (the Miner). My friends enjoyed the New Mexico as well. Perfect crust - I cannot stress this enough. Strong enough to hold up to heavy ingredients and sauces without breaking or leaking. Buttery enough that they don't get soggy, and you can really look forward to the crust-heavy bites that may not have as much filling. Came back a couple days later to grab packable plane snacks. Enjoyed the Stout right then and there, Joey on my outbound flight back to LA, and the Farmer for breakfast the next morning. Protip on the beefy pies (Miner/Stout) - they have packets of spicy mustard and horseradish sauce. The pies alone are excellent, a little mustard and horseradish adds the acidity to elevate the flavor to legendary status. 11/10, coming back here every time I'm in Denver. read more

Delightful pastry w buttery flaky crust. Wonderful customer service. Quality of ingredients is best in Denver!

There's paid street parking everywhere and it was so busy in Cherry Creek this day that I hopped out of the car and had my boyfriend wait for me to get a couple Pasties. That's how much I wanted to try these! Keep in mind this was a -2 degree F day and so when I was greeted by the warmth of this shop I was so happy to have made it. There is a menu board and also a case with the day of options. I ordered two Pasties. One was a shepard's pie, the other was also beef based. They were big, heavy, and was served in a paper bag dawned with such a cute stamp of a Pasty. The cashier was super sweet and offered sauce packets and utensils. Y'all.....did you know that A1 makes individual sauce packets?! I took 1 for each Pasty per the cashier's recommendation. He also said horseradish would compliment what I got. I returned to the car, Pasty steaming with the first bite, bursting with flavor. If you're turned off by the price (about $9 each), keep in mind these could totally be meals or part of a meal. They were so savory and filling. I loved both, but loved the texture of the cubes of beef with the potatoes over the ground beef and mashed potatoes. Fast, casual, easy, and delicious. What more do you want? read more

Has ~2 vegetarian options, not sure if one of them can be vegan. Mostly wanted to try this because I had never had a "pasty"--it's a lot like samosas, empanadas, ravioli, dumplings, etc. read more

Oh my god, I'm in heaven. Pasty heaven. I had no idea what a pasty was but it looked like a calzone and like one of my favorite character Ben Wyatt, I do like calzones so I gave it a shot. It's a tiny little place, and the person helping us was very friendly. My friends and I kept going back to buy frozen ones. Yes you can heat up your own pasty. There's breakfast ones, savory, vegetarian, and even dessert. Something for everyone. My favorite was the I believe it's called something like southwestern, it's a breakfast one and it's so good. Spicy and perfectly breakfasty. They're huge so you'll be full. On a cold day walking to your car, it's a perfect hand warmer. They also have monthly special ones, my friend got the last one of the day and lamb kabob and I got a frozen chicken curry. It was delicious. I can't wait to come back read more

Stopped by super hungry to grab some morning eats. The pies were flaky and hot, perfect for a cold day. I tried out the farmer and got my husband the New Mexico. Just wish they had a bit more flavor/spice to them - were a tad bland; they did satisfy my desire to eat something warm and comforting on a cold morning though. Service was pleasant and quick. read more

Ate here two days in a row and took frozen ones home. I lived in Eastern PA as a child and kina grew up on these delicious pockets of goodness. At TPR their miner pasty is super on point to what I am accustomed to. The chunky bits of steamy potato, flaky yet doughy crust, the blistering heat trapped in tha ground beef, had me like "DAMN SON WHERE'D FIND THISSS?!" The heads behind the counter were super chill and on day two I stuck around to eat in the restaurant at one of the two 3 top tables. read more

Great little local shop serving up a wide assortment of tasty hand pies. You can dine in (or on the sidewalk seating arranged just outside the door) or take your meal to go. I went "South of the Border" and snatched up a tasty and spicy breakfast pasty. The portion is huge and filling. Awesome flavors and I will definitely repeat. Could make a great breakfast, lunch or dinner. read more

The southwest pie was to die for!!!! Cheesy eggs with perfectly cooked potatoes and sausage with just the right amount of heat with the green chiles.

I was in Cherry Creek and needed something quick and delicious for lunch. Yelp led me to The Pasty Republic and wow, kinda bitter I've never been here before! In case you've never heard of it, a pasty is a British baked hand-pie typically filled with meat and potatoes. Over the the Pasty Republic though, they are filling them up with so many delicious, fresh, local ingredients. They have savory pasties with meat and vegetarian options as well as dessert ones that I need to get in on next time. This go-round, I tried the Country Road (on their breakfast menu) which has eggs, maple sausage, potatoes, and cheddar. I also tried the Miner under the signature menu which has steak, rutabaga, potatoes, onions, and house seasoning. Both were filled TO THE BRIM and so freaking delicious. Their dough is also something else. It's made from scratch and goes through a meticulous 2-day process. It is thin and crisp, and just enough to hold all of the delicious filling - and it is a LOT of filling. These are definitely meal-sized. I tried them for the first time yesterday and I am having serious thoughts about going to get more today! They sell them hot and ready to eat or frozen so you can take them home and eat them anytime you please. Seriously, if you've never been, go right now! read more

The best pasties . I only discovered pasties a few years ago in Michigan, but was immediately sold. It's dangerous that this spot is so close to home. I always bring one back for my husband when I'm in CCN running errands. I love every flavor I've tried so far, but our favorite is the Philosopher. My own complaint is that it tends to sell out! read more

I had tried the pasty's before after they were catered at work and I loved them, but this was my first time actually going in myself and it did not disappoint. The service was friendly and so quick. I was in and out in a flash and quickly devoured my huge New Mexico pasty. These things are massive and stuffed to the brim with goodies. I can eat, but even one was more than enough for me. Give them a try for a quick on the go lunch! read more

Delicious. We bought frozen ones to bake at home and it was so yummy and you can tell from the first taste that it's made there and not froze some factory. We tried the Southwest and Country breakfast pastries. For some, the southwest might be spicy. There's definitely a kick to it that I really enjoy. The country was just maple flavor and potatoes. Each pasty is quite larger than I had previously thought. So one can fill you up or you can order several options and share with friends and family. read more

We originally became enamored of pasties years ago on a trip to Scotland, and ever since we have been on a never-ending quest for excellent savory pastry. With pasty adventures under our belts from Miami to Minneapolis to Seattle, we have decided that The Pasty Republic are absolutely the best we've had in this great nation. Since there are 2 locations in Denver now, the locals obviously agree. We're pretty sure we could live happily on a steady diet of the cheesy potato pasty, since we've never had more perfectly proportioned potato/cheese/onion in any pastry. That crust is just classically ideal too. We hope to make it through Denver during open hours on our way home so we can pick up a supply of frozen pasties to tide us over until we venture north again. read more

Pasties are one of my favorite local foods found in Michigan. I'm from the state natively and lived there for over 20 years. It was cool finding out that there are pasties in Denver. I ordered the Miners Pasty (including beef steak, potato, rutabaga, and onions). It was very much identical to a Yooper one with its ingredients and preparation. However, I do prefer the ones I had in Marquette and St. Ignace). I also ordered a cheddar potato pasty that was quite good as well. The service was quite speedy. The ambience is like a small bakery. I'd highly recommend this place for someone in Colorado to try a pasty. read more
