I rarely give 5s. We buy and freeze their pasties in bulk, makes fast delicious healthy meals. Nice people too.
Nice staff! Small but good selection of MI & Detroit favorites. Support local business!
This place is awesome. Very nice and helpful staff. I went in to the store to put a gift basket together for my daughter that lives out of state. They shipped it right out that day and my daughter was so happy to receive such great Michigan gifts from home. I cannot say enough nice things about this store! I even brought two tasty pasties home and my husband and I had them for dinner. They were delicious! They make them right there onsite. If you have always wanted to try a pasty but have never been to the UP, these are authentic and tasted just like the pasties my Mom used to make!
It has been a few years since we last visited and it is still as charming as ever! We picked up a few curios to take on our overseas research trip to give as gifts. Plus our son and daughter have moved out of state and we found some perfect gifts to send them so they remember with fondness their home state.
Cute little store with home made items from people in Michigan and or surrounding areas of Livingston County. The sales clerk Anna was very sweet and even suggested products for a gift we were searching for. They have homemade pasties! Havent tried it yet but my family members brought a few.
Amazing little shop truly a hidden treasure. They have all types of Michigan made products the faygo candles are awesome and smell delish. Also try the cherry pepper jam it has little spice and is not hot and goes on everything. We will definitely be back.
Best place to get your souvenirs in town!! We had an awesome time browsing the isles and the helpful staff was there to answer questions, dont miss this place!!
Quaint shop with cute gifts. Friendly service.
Great store. Wonderfull staff. Delicious ice cream!
Amazing Michigan products. Love the pasties! Staff is always friendly!
I have been a customer that sends a taste of Michigan to friends and family in and out of state. I am happy to report my sister (a recipient) also used Heart of Michigan to friends that recently moved out of state after she enjoyed her gift package before Christmas. I love the Michigan touch in gifting and recently sent another sister a gift box full of goodies.Quality items at good prices!!Thank You, Stacey Gorman for providing a means of celebrating with friends and family.Dan GamacheHowell, MI
I live in Texas and I wanted to give my girlfriend a taste of home for her birthday. After a little research, I decided on a build-a-box from Heart of Michigan. The box of goodies arrived in less than 1 week; however, one of the soda bottles had leaked. I reached out to Heart of Michigan and Stacey offered to replace any damaged items. Thankfully, none of the other items were damaged, but Stacey offered to send out a couple of replacement pops anyway. I really appreciate the awesome customer service.
Great ice cream, they did a great job
This is a wonderful store! Very nicely stocked with all Michigan products! Including delicious pasties! Friendly and helpful staff put together a beautiful gift basket for us last minute. 😊 Definitely worth a visit
Received a gift box for my birthday from my sister in MI. (Since I couldnt travel up north this year).Top quality!! Everthing was neatly packed ina giant box! Fragile items all bubble wrapped. This was the best gift ever. Send this to anyone missing the Mitten!(Faygo, Vernors, Sanders, Cherry everything, Win Schulers, Better Made)Thanks!!
Wonderful homegrown products. Very friendly, and caring staff. Excellent follow through! Boxes were beautifully made.
Great store full of michigan-based products and foods. You can also put together gift baskets of Michigan products
Delicious pasties (so many choices!!), and very friendly and helpful staff. Great local business!
Best pasties I have ever eaten
I ordered the pasties for this rough health period we are currently going through, and everything about the ordering experice is wonderful. The order was delivered to my door, and they all taste great! My kids have a super healthy lunch option while theyre home.
A favorite place to take out-of-town guests. Friendly staff who will find out answers if you have a question. They have some good wines, great Michigan made food and unique items from our great state.
Great variety of Michigan made products and wonderful customer service. If you dont see something you need, just ask because it may be available special order.
This store just gets better and better! Perfect place to shop for the people in your life who are hard to shop for. Everything Michigan here, from candles to food, jewelry to books to t-shirts and so much more. Pick up a pasty or two to take home, and indulge in some real ice cream while youre there. Great employees, good service. Always worth visiting while youre in town. Theres always something new!
Great shop full of Michigan products! We were able to find foods here that we havent been able to find anywhere else. They have food, drinks, decor, clothing, jewelry & lots of great Michigan made products. The best part are the pasties! They have delicious options from traditional to breakfast to chicken...with warm gravy to go with! So yummy- you have to try!
A great variety of made in Michigan products I love their pasties!
First off the Pasties are the best! You must come and try them. All of the Michigan made items are fresh and delicious! Great Michigan crafts and Wines, beers, ice cream and so much more. Highly recommended!
Oh my! A friend told me the pasties were every bit as good as those in the U. P. She didnt lie! I ate one there and ordered six frozen to take home. So far Ive had the original and the breakfast one. Both are delicious and now Ill always stop for more!
Great little store in downtown Howell selling products only made in Michigan. Wide variety of items from shirts and hats to candy and snacks. They also sell locally made ice cream and pasties. Nice option to order online and put together gift boxes. The staff was warm and friendly too. Only downside is the limited space in their store.
Heart of Michigan is Awesome! Very helpful employees, thanks Robyn, and great MI products! I order products for a gift basket give away for a conference. Heart of Michigan was able to ship it all out very fast and even assembled it all in the basket for me. It looks great and someone at our conference will be a very happy winner.
Chicken cherry pasty...DELICIOUS!Thank you!!
This place was awesome. The people who work there were very friendly and helpful. It’s not a big place but they have a lot of heart. I would recommend checking this place out.
Awesome little stop if youre in downtown Howell! The shop is cute & clean with a nice variety of things. Delicious pasties. I love their traditional beef as well as the breakfast pasty!!
Cute little downtown store. Has many food options to choose from including ice cream and little trinkets around the walls of the store. Staff was friendly. Great place to stop into.
Good pasties, especially for cold winter days. They hit the spot! My suggestion? Try them, youll be glad you did.
Three things. Pasties; hand-packed ice cream; and Trenary Toast. Delicious. All from our state. Plus many other things. Friendly and prompt service. The pasties come ready for your oven, hot from their oven, or frozen.
Love the verity of products.
This isnt walmart
Distinct Michigan gifts and food. Excellent, friendly service. Fantastic selection of specialty items from the Mitten. Fantastic custom gift baskets to send!!!! Dont forget to have a hot Pasty while youre there!!!
I love this store. I HAVE to go every time I visit my aunt in howell and my cousin in brighton.
Cute little store. They have some unique finds and they serve ice cream. I like to get my pasties here.
Best pasties weve ever had. I had the Chicken Pasty and my husband had the Beef Pasty and we both loved them. Great Michigan store in Howell. Nice staff too!!!
My wife and I finally got to visit again without our kids. Heart of Michigan has a ton of cool gift items and things that just make you feel good about where you live. Fantastic ice cream too! Nice staff!
We love this store
Such a cool little store...unique to Michigan finds.
This store is very clean and organized with a friendly staff. They greet you with a smile the only suggestion I have is maybe some music. It was a little quiet in there and I thought maybe make a playlist of music from bands or artists who are from Michigan.
Awesome store with lots of great locally sourced products. My wife recently purchased a pair of the Story Kromer mittens for me and they are great. Also, the pasty and pasty poppers are very tasty. Keep up the good work HoM!
Love the unique selection of locally crafted items and Michigan made products. Friendly, helpful staff. Added bonus-it always smells delicious! They make pasties in-house!
Always helpful....polite and amazing Michigan stuff
1st time using Heart of Michigan n it WILL be my last!!!! Placed 2 orders to be delivered on 12/21!!!!! They were delivered today the 11th. Thanks Heart of Michigan for blowing our Christmas surprise!!
Nice family owned business. Needs more space for all the products to browse. Great for gifts.
Very cool place. Alot of cool Michigan made products to help you show off your state pride, or even support your favorites professional and collage teams. Plenty if michigan made food and beverage items as well... Check it out...
Ive lived in Howell most of my life and this store is awesome! Feels just like the shops you find up near Traverse City.
Cherries, Faygo and pasties.Breakfast pasties are good.Ive not seen Faygo candles at other stores.
Loved that I could design my own basket. Quick shipping and the recipient loved it.
Cute shop and AMAZING pasties!! I would recommend everyone to try a pastie and tale a look around!

If you are looking for a Good homemade pasties, you found your place, so much meat you truly feel your in the UP
Everything Michigan store! A variety of merchandise, made in Michigan, and presented beautifully. Staff very helpful.
Went to Heart of Michigan on Saturday. They were wonderful. They have a lot of products that Ive been driving all over to get. Things Ive only ever found in Frankenmuth or certain Farmers markets. Pricing was comparable and now that I know they are there, I will certainly be back. Bought two bottles of wine, honey sticks (reason I was there), spices (I usually drive to Frankenmuth for) and a number of other things. I wish I had had more time to shop.
Small store and filled with tons of surprisingly great treasures!
Love this place!
I am sorry to the Upper Peninsula but heart of Michigan has the best pasties in all of Michigan.
Great shop for all your Michigan originals!
Just an awesome store. If you have family or friends visiting from out of town, you should, absolutely, make this a stop while theyre here.
Love this place. They have great stuff.
This place sells excellent Pasties! If youve never had one from this place, it would be worth your time to stop in there and try one!
