Side Dishes
Jellied eels and cockles are other London specialities often sold in pie and mash shops, usually bought ready prepared from wholesalers. Chili-vinegar (vinegar containing pickled chilies) is also traditionally served with all dishes, originating from the spice trade imports to the London docks.
In recent years to offer service to a broader range of customers, some pie and mash shops have started to offer a broader selection of pies, including vegetarian, chicken and fruit.
