The Hull Pie

The name says it all, though unlike your bog-standard meat encased in pastry, pies at The Hull Pie are delicious, gourmet and one of the local area’s most praised foodstuffs. Owner Matt was first inspired to set up shop after a BBQ pulled pork pie made for friends while working as a chef in Canada received rave reviews. Today, three outlets are dotted across Hull, including its flagship joint on Trinity Lane, each selling pies filled with tasty concoctions like caramelised beer and brisket or Jamaican jerk chicken and roasted pepper alongside a range of gourmet sausage rolls and carvery sandwiches.
