Newest Review: ... a good food at a good price. HISTORY Every successful businesses always start from the bottom and so was Greggs, founded as a family bakery business on Tyneside in the 1930's by John Gregg. He died suddenly in 1964, His son Ian Gregg gave up his plans for a legal career and take over the business, At that time he only had a single shop with a small bakery at the rear then retail chain expanded in the North East and now become the best value bakers on the high street.

There were so many choices of restaurant out there so I was'nt keen on popping up to any baker shop on the high street to have something to eat. But while going out shopping with my cousin, she asked me to grabbed a snack at greggs and I tried the sausage roll and a drink. It's quite busy and there's a que but the waiting wasn't that bad because the service was quite fast. I actually enjoyed that quick snack I had. The sausage roll was tasty, so from then on I usually snapped something from greggs whenever I have a chance. Especially when I'm in a hurry and feel a bit hungry, It's an easy way, to pop up, get fill up and go! It's basically a good food at a ...  Read the complete review

As the Greggs juggernaut rumbles ever onward, there must surely be fewer and fewer people who haven't experienced what is now one of Britain's largest fast food chains, with the number of their shops running well into four figures. They call themselves the country's largest specialist bakers, but really that phrase makes them sound like some old-fashioned small concern, when in fact although they consisted of a single shop in Tyneside until the 1970s, they're now a massive business that would be better compared to the takeaway divisions of the likes of McDonald's or Subway. ==The shops== With the exception of a few shops in areas of a historic ...  Read the complete review

For me I need a quick snack when on a work break so I choose Greggs. I guess the reason I choose Gregg's is because of their wide range of snack food and bakery food available. You can never go wrong with buying a sandwich from here. Just by getting a sandwich here they offer a free drink with it now! Other things I like about Gregg's is their service when you be waiting. They get more staff in when they see the lines are getting bigger. This way this slows down the ques here and you get your food much quicker here.Been a admirer of their bakery food for some time and find them to be cheap and also have the best taste in their bakery food. Their ...  Read the complete review

A familiar name across the country in most shopping centres is Greggs! They are famously known for their bakery food and you can pick up some of the best bakery food of them at lunch. They are easy to notice with the blue logo and most of the time have people in queue's outside their bakery at lunch time all the time! You should always coming here at 12 o clock because its embarrassing waiting in such a long line at times! I like Gregg's best for their cheese and onion pasties that does cost 80p now near a quid! At one time it used to be less than 50p but the prices are going up! They often have pasties ready every hour freshly baked which they serve out. They ...  Read the complete review
