Greggs

He buggers me in the stable for half a shilling and I go home with a full stomach :)

You are selling yourself short there. Buggering off of the lord should be worth at least 2 and 6 plus a meal.
 
I had a sausage roll from greggs the other week. it was the first sausage roll i've eaten in years. I haven't missed much! It was grosse. How much salt do they put in those things? It was all i could taste. Bleurgh :(
 
I've only just realised very recently that Greggs even existed and what they sold. My part of the world seems to be, as yet, un-touched by it's pastry goodness. :(
 
i like greggs scones. ive been known to eat three in a sitting. plain, not 'buttered'. also their new baguettes are very good value at £1.50, if you can close your mind to the fact that the 'ham' is probably 400% compressed porcine eyejam.

eta: not bovine, porcine. this is what happens to you if you eat greggs food too often- you forget which animal ham is made from.
 
Greggs.
:mad:

Stormed out of one once as they insisted they didn't have a bread slicer. Even though they reluctantly sliced my loaf the week before. And they put fucking mao in everything.

No keep them away. They're junk chain bakeries. The food is consistant. That is there only advantage. Much tastier pasties can be had elsewhere. Other sandwhich shops will make you something, with seprate ingredients. Rather than dispence some bland mao covered gloop on to uninspiring bread product.

I don't really like Greggs myself, but they do a nice meat and potato pasty.

Such a thing is unheard of south of Stockport. Unfortunately. Meat and potato piues are aces.

I thought it was Braggs up North. It was in Brum, anyway.

All the Braggs' in the Midlands and up North were re-named Greggs a few years ago. They were owned by Greggs anyway, just rebranded them.

I can't believe this thread is three pages long.

With the cultural and culinary contribution the chain baker has made to our cuisine, you've got to expect avid discussion and appreciation.

This is a thread about Greggs.

yes, i know. but i also need to know whether i can go into a greggs in norn iron and ask the lady behind the counter if she has hot baps without risking her getting punchy. yes, it's a tangent, but it's still related to the topic in hand.
