Hicksies Take Away Food Shops

Hicksies on Market Street sits at the heart of Ulverston's compact shopping area, serving freshly made sandwiches, baps, and baguettes at prices that reviewers repeatedly describe as reasonable. The kitchen's daily roast joint is the detail that distinguishes it from the standard sandwich counter — sliced beef, pork, or chicken carved to order alongside the usual fillings. Ulverston has a strong independent trading tradition, and Hicksies fits comfortably into the lunchtime economy serving shoppers, market-day visitors, and people working in the town centre. The format is simple and the focus is on quick, honest food rather than elaborate menus. Worth a look on market days when footfall brings extra life to the street outside.
