GREGGS has opened its new Ellesmere Port location today, creating three new jobs for the area.

The bakery has moved from 29 Marina Drive to a larger unit at 5 Marina Drive.

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 breakfast combinations such as a breakfast roll or baguette alongside a Fairtrade orange juice or hot drink - served until 11am every day.

With the festive season almost upon us, Greggs has launched its new Christmas menu including the popular Festive Bake, Vegan Festive Bake with a new and improved recipe, Christmas Lunch Baguette and Festive Flatbread.

To give customers a seasonal pickup throughout the colder months, Greggs has also announced a host of new hot drinks including Gingerbread Latte (also available over ice) and Gingerbread Flat White, alongside a Mint Mocha and Mint Hot Chocolate.

After 4pm, customers can pick up any pizza slice with any drink from just £2.85 instead of the usual £3.50!
