A pickled egg wrapped in Bury Black Pudding and premium sausage meat with a golden crumb.

"Manchester's finest new export"

The Independent - November 2011

"Deserves it's place among the pantheon of national food stuffs"

The Guardian - April 2010

The Manchester Egg is a new pub snack phenomenon, developed by esteemed local Ben Holden, who decided that the traditional scotch egg was lacking a little Mancunian-ness. While chomping on a pickled egg in his favourite local pub, he had a brainwave: Let's put a pickled egg in a sausage and black-pudding coating, and wrap it in breadcrumb. The legend was born.

Four pubs in Manchester now stock the Manchester Egg. The Mark Addy, The Parlour, The Horse and Jockey and Electrik.
