Hastings: New Greggs store opens in town

The company said it is a new, bigger branch that has opened to replace a smaller shop.

Previously located at 13 Queens Road, the shop has relocated to a larger unit at 15-16 Queens Road, Greggs said.

A spokesperson for the company said: “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.

“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.

“For those wanting a vegan friendly option for Veganuary, the Spicy Vegetable Curry Bake is back. The much-loved meat-free bake is packed with peppers, carrots, chickpeas, parsnips, potatoes, broccoli and sweetcorn, combined with a mouth-watering curry sauce for an extra kick. The Spicy Vegetable Curry Bake joins a delicious line-up of vegan-friendly treats, including the Vegan Sausage Roll, the Vegan Sausage Breakfast Roll and the Southern Fried Potato Wedges.

“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.

“Customers looking to skip the queues and grab a quick bite on the go can order through Click + Collect via the Greggs App.”

Gillian Long, retail operations director for Greggs, said: “We’re excited to be welcoming customers to our new and improved shop in Hastings. We look forward to providing customers with a modern, convenient new place to experience their Greggs favourites.”

The Hastings shop’s opening hours are Monday to Saturday from 6.30am to 7pm, and Sunday from 7am to 5pm.
