Max Bakes in Edinburgh, City of

Last year, mum and I found Max Bakes. Mum had haggis and black pudding and I had feta and spinach. I had never had haggis or black pudding (always put off by the ingredients 🤦‍♀️) I tried mums and vice versa...both were delicious! This year we planned to hunt Max Bakes down, worrying he may not be here this year, and much to our delight we found him in the exact same spot! (later we found out he is a permanent fixture not just for The Fringe) We order two haggis and black pudding rolls and they were as good as we remembered! Two very happy travellers 😁

Do yourself a favour and tuck into the Goumet Feast that is on offer at Max Baker (with this name, he was destined to go into baking, surely?)! There are several different sausage rolls on offer, including vegetarian and vegan options. I went for the Spicy Beef one, and not only was it easily the VERY BEST sausage roll I have ever had in my life, it was also filling. Not only that, but his awesome van is parked right alongside Bar Bados, the funkiest reggae bar in town. They will let you bring your sausage rolls inside their Carribean themed area to eat, whilst supping a delicious cocktail. "I love Max's Sausage Rolls. Put another one in the oven baby"

Without a shadow of a doubt the best sausage roll I have ever had. It is also comfortably the most expensive I have ever had at £3.50, but it is a price I am happy to pay considering they are large in size, clearly use good quality ingredients and are very filling.

I recently stumbled across Max Bakes and I am very glad I did. I sampled their 'Pork, Apple and Cheddar' sausage roll and it was outstanding. The pastry was buttery and flaky and the filling was not just generous, but also well seasoned and juicy. My wife had the 'Chicken and Bacon' which she also gave top marks. And as a devout carnivore it pains me to admit that even their vegetarian/vegan options also looked tremendous. We will definitely be back!
