Pap Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 (edited) I've never ate a mince pie from there. They look absolutely horrendous. To be honest theres not much there i'd eat. I did like their Mexican Bandit baguettes though. Goodfellow & Steven are much bettter, for a chain. Edited April 2, 2023 by Pap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortyJambo Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Hardly ever go to Greggs but, if I do, then it has to be a cheese and onion pasty and a yum-yum 🤤 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whodanny Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I'd treat myself to an about turn and walk out the door. Greggs stuff is horrendous, cheap and nasty. I'd rather find a good local baker, probably pay a bit more, but get something freshly made that morning with loads of flavour. I have a soft spot for good mince and onion bridies. Wish they sold them at Tynecastle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to go to this branch ever other day for their well fired rolls. Usually had to order in advance as well. But all their rolls are excellent. The rolls out Greggs are awful.

ArcticJambo Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Most lunchtimes it was a cheee n onion pastie and a fruit slice, though occasionally I'd mix it up with a Dresden Bun, which I don't think they call em that no more, as it offends ze germans. Those were the days, when it was filled with curds of cheese and oniony bits, now it's just nuclear hot pale yellow pus! Still get one once in a while, mind.

hughesie27 Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) Steak Bake and a Pink Jammie. They changed the Jam in the pink Jammie about 15 years ago though at one point and it's not as good as it was. Used to like their Tune Crunch sandwiches too but I think they only do them in gum slicing rock hard baguettes now.
