About the Blue Egg
Named after the distinctive pale blue eggs of Cream Legbar Chickens, we certainly think The Blue Egg stands out too! We hope, like us, that you see it as a welcoming place for the whole family to shop, eat, play and explore.
Walk into the Blue Egg, and at any one point you may see friends catching up over a coffee and cake; busy shoppers grabbing that perfect gift; children heading out of nursery and skipping straight into our playground or cyclists pit-stopping for refuelling. That’s not to mention the other fabulous residents who call The Blue Egg home, from the florist to the beauty salon.
We are easily found just outside Great Bardfield and are proud to have been a family run business for almost 20 years.. Owners, Debs and Nicholas Reed believe in supporting local producers and fair-trade operations whenever possible. You’ll see this in the range of everyday food items that we stock to the more indulgent treats we have to tempt you.
