New Opening: Greggs opens new shop in Glasgow city centre creating eight new jobs

Greggs has opened a new shop today in Argyle Street, Glasgow, creating eight new jobs for the area.

The shop will stock freshly prepared Greggs favourites, such as the on-the-go-retailer’s popular sausage roll, steak bake and delicious vegan alternatives, in addition to a range of over ice drinks including cloudy lemonade and iced mocha, which are only available in limited shops across the UK.

Customers can also take advantage of Greggs’ deals throughout the day, including its famed breakfast combinations, offering a breakfast roll or baguette alongside a Fairtrade orange juice or hot drink - served until 11am every day.

With the weather heating up, try Greggs new summer menu which includes two brand-new pasta pots - the piri piri chicken pasta and pesto & mozzarella pasta. As well as a handful of returning menu items with new and improved recipes: sweet potato bhaji & rice, smoky cajun rice with bbq chicken & sweetcorn fritters, feta & tomato pasta and chicken & bacon pasta. All of which are part of Greggs’ Balanced Choice range, meaning they’re 400 calories or less – a great choice to satisfy lunchtime cravings!

Those looking for a bite to eat in the evening can enjoy hot food such as southern fried chicken goujons, potato wedges and a variety of pizza slices including margherita, pepperoni, spicy Mexican chicken, spicy veg and pepperoni hot shot. After 4pm, customers can pick up any pizza slice with any drink from just £2.85 instead of the usual £3.50 – now that’s more tasty for your money!
