Greggs is set to open in Ireland... here is what you need to know
They are the pastry kings.
GREGGS IS AN absolute phenomenon in the UK.
The company is now set to open its first branch in Ireland at an Applegreen service station in Dublin, a move that the company projected as part of its plans to become publicly listed back in May.
The Independent has reported that the outlet will open towards the end of the year.
This follows the opening of a Greggs outlets at service station on the M2 near Belfast.
The store has more more outlets than McDonald’s in the United Kingdom.
People in the United Kingdom are a bit obsessed with Gregg’s, and here’s why…
1. Well, we hear people are obsessed with their sausage rolls
We think we know sausage rolls here. Nothing on Greggs, apparently.
2. Their pasties are also world renowned
Seems like anything goes when it comes to fillings as well.
3. In fact, their menu pretty much has anything beige that has ever been invented
Wall-to-wall pastry beige. If a menu was designed for a hangover, this is it.
4. They have something called a sausage and bean melt
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Basically, Greggs is not afraid to push the pastry boundary.
