Polish dumplings of soft wheat dough filled with potato and curd cheese, cabbage and mushroom, or sweet curd and fruit. Manchester's Sparrows hand-rolls them daily.
Pierogi arrived in Manchester with successive waves of Polish migration through the twentieth century. The Sparrows in the Green Quarter, opened by Kasia Hitchcock and chef Franco Concli in 2019, made them a fine-dining staple; the kitchen rotates the daily pierogi filling between ruskie (potato and curd), kapusta z grzybami (cabbage and mushroom), and seasonal sweet versions. Bib Gourmand 2026 acknowledged the room.
