Oink Victoria Street

Found my comfort food!

We call this “Lechon” back home and boy am I glad to taste one here in Edinburgh! Brought me very good memories at home.

Their staff on shift today was amazing. Very gracious and informed me of the sizes of bread they’re offering.

The pork skin was very crunchy. Loved it!

We grabbed two sandwiches to take away because the place was crowded. It’s ok eating outside in the street. Nice and fast service. The sandwich was not much big, but it was quite tasty and the meat really tender.

Grabbed a takeaway from the famous hog roll spot in Edinburgh, Oink! Specializing in hog roast (or pulled pork) rolls, Oink lets you customize your sandwich. The pulled pork is the real deal—they literally pull it right in front of you. We got a sandwich to enjoy on the train, and the star of the show was the crackling, the crispy pork skin on top. My only wish? More kick in the chili cheese sauce—I couldn’t really taste the spiciness! 🤣

It is a good option for a quick bite. We got the medium size (oink), and it had a good portion of meat. But, it was a bit dry, and it had very little sauce.
The crackling on top of the sandwich was really good and it was worth getting extra ones (0.5 pounds extra).

Came here to try the famous pork sandwich and after a 15 min wait finally got one .
Had the pork haggis and chilli cheese large
The pork was perfectly cooked and god bless the staff they had to work fast to get through the queues .
But overall the sandwich didnt live up to the hype but overall was ok
