Popular Buxton sausage company opens in Leek Buttermarket

A Buxton company famous for its artisan sausages, pies, scotch eggs, sausage rolls and exoric burgers and meats has opend a branch in the newly refurbished Leek Buttermarket that has undergone a multi-million pound upgrade.

Owner and sausage meister Lawrence Ewing said: "We had our eye on Leek since we opened the company four years ago. It's a town that is fast becoming known for it's vibrant foodie scene and was the obvious place for us to expand into.

"Whilst we have closed our larger premises on Spring Gardens, we retain our smaller food only location at Fiveways Junction, and are pleased to announce that we are expanding our wholesale business.

"Currently we are supplying Cafe at the Cavern in Poole's Cavern, The New Inn on Market Place, Queenie's Tea Rooms on Bridge Street, Buxton, and Torr Vale tap in New Mills. We are also taking online orders and catering for private events."
