My old mum fractured her spine, came out of hospital on a zimmer. Mum, said I, where do u want to go, I'll take u anywhere u like. Half an hour later we were parked in a nearby town, bypassing several esteemed eateries en route, and she was inching along the pavement towards Greggs for a steak bake with a steely glint in her eye. I had a coffee. It was gopping. But mum was very happy and had an iced bun too.
That's lovely, your mum has her priorities right, the Steak Bake would have been amazing after the hospital cuisine, the simple pleasures in life are underrated! Steak Bakes are annoyingly delicious though!
That's lovely!
Hope your mum is recovering. I'm sure a few more steak bakes will aid her recovery.
Never liked Greggs as to me it’s just belly busting low quality filler , however many people swear by them 🤔…Definitely cheap and cheerful not for me though ..I was brought up in N Ireland back in the 1950s a home were my mothers cooking and baking were legendary and half the kids in the street would sneak in at tea time , my mother never refused one of them 🙏…
Lovely mate, long live xx
I buy pastries, sausage rolls etc from a local bakery who has 2 shops in town. The quality is far superior to Greggs and their prices are very reasonable. Support your local businesses !
This is a local business employes local people puts money into local economy
I totally agree mate, you know it makes total sense. Rights.
Same. My local butcher makes way better sausage rolls, pies, pastries and bread rolls etc
Of course David
@@davidhandley9007 why ya some Alan sugar
I bet the people serving were thinking “Crikey, this bloke really likes his Greggs”.
The server couldn't believe it when I went up a 4th time lol
@@GaryEats Bruce Bogtrotter with chocolate cake! 🤣😁
I really like Greggs. I’m from the North East of England, the home of Greggs, and we had nothing when I was a kid - back in the 1980’s. As a treat, my family would get me and my brother a sausage roll from either Greggs or Carricks (another local bakery) … probably because they were cheap and cheerful.
I’m 43, married and a consultant psychiatrist, but having something from Greggs still takes me right back. 😊
Great video, Gary.
@@DrMark1981 Do you find that many of your patients frequent Greggs?
Thank you Mark, have a good week
I remember the Carricks in Durham way before we had a Greggs.
Where I grew up in Manchester in the early 1980's we were close to one of the actual bakeries in Clayton, wherever the actual industrial bakeries were you would always find a clearance shop that sold product that had been baked the day before or had slight issues like smudged icing on the vanilla slices. Everything was 1/3rd the price of the normal shops. Every family in the area used that shop, it was the cheapest place to buy bread and family treats that might not have been affordable for many otherwise. As much as I dislike the current Greggs I'll always have a soft spot for them because of what they were.
@@rosemarymee most of them don't last the 2 year waiting list we currently have!
You tell it how it is Gary, that's why we love you
and I love you all too
You could review the process of paint drying and I'd still watch it. You're such a pleasant, wholesome person - I'm so chuffed I found you a week ago!
The only time I'd go to Greggs is for a cheap and sort-of-cheerful decaff coffee.
Thank you so much very kind Jordan. Really happy you're on the channel
Thank you Gary….another brilliant review…..thoroughly enjoyed watching it
Thank you ever so much John
You are as honest as the day is long gary 👍👍
That’s very kind to say, thank you very much
Matt from Food Review Club ain’t gonna be buying any new watches when Gary has gained all his followers 😂😂😂😂
He's well overtaken him in quality reviews anyway. Loads of subscribers leaving or constantly slagging him off as a lot of them look like paid reviews that he claims aren't. FRC have lost their ethos and when he has them northern Irish ones with him I don't bother watching, bunch of obnoxious mouths, and as for the profanities? Grow up
Maybe same with Macmaster
There’s something about his videos I find quite irritating. Gary and Rate My Takeaway are my favs.
@@OJoRob True. Wish the guy well, but his prancing around thumbnails I found irritating.
Also watch the Durham Vlogger, his vids are simple but I like them.
Matt from the what now? Gary is the OG and can't be compared to anyone
We didn't expect a Greggs review on Gary Eats but as always...... you gave it a go!
"No one expects a Greggs review on Gary eats!!" Python???
Thank you ever so much Micah, why not eh
@@GaryEats 😄

I will always have a soft spot for Greggs, as my nanna and grandpa lived in Gosforth and they used to take me to the original Greggs on Gosforth High Street when I visited them during school holidays (50+ years ago!). Fond memories. Good to hear that the staff were attentive later on (after your initial rather cool encounter). Without wanting to stereotype, I have to say that all of the Gregg's staff I have met (across numerous branches) in the north of England have been absolute gems. Great video, much appreciated as always.
That is so good to hear, Mark. Hopefully this brought back some lovely memories and thank you very much.
Great review Gary, certainly wasn’t expecting to see you giving it a go in Greggs! 😊x
Thank you ever so much and something a bit different
Lucky you got a table at Gregg's. Usually, you have to book months in advance
LOL 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Usually full of police.
Hence, their size. 😉
Haha that cracked me up!😂😂 thanks for making a crappy day much better!
I think i saw Gordon Ramsey in the background scoffing yum yums.
A very good evening Gary! You seem to be working harder than ever! Loving the reviews as always. Cheers and thanks again for the positivity!
Thank you ever so much Stephen, how are you doing?
@GaryEats Good news is I had no adverse effects after last Mondays treatment which is brilliant. Next one is two weeks tomorrow so fingers crossed 🤞. Have a great evening Gary. Thanks.
We buy their products frozen from iceland.All decent stuff and 10% off for us pensioners on Tuesdays.
Good grief - Greg’s and Iceland in the same sentence 🤦♂️ mingin !!! Eat fresh and live long !
Very nice Stewart
Great review again Gary love how diverse they all are with a fair scoring system
Thank you ever so much Simon
In 2013, the government brought in the hot pasty tax, which meant that previously exempt baked goods were subject to 20% VAT. Greggs circumvents this by selling them straight from the oven and allowing them to cool. Saving VAT.
Yep, bit of a shame
the customer is the one who suffers.
yes i always ask what is hot and order accordingly
Never been to Greg’s before. Never had the need. However an interesting revue and like you say they do the job. Warm food which is reasonably tasty and doesn’t cost the earth.
Nothing to eat in their range if you’re coeliac or gluten intolerant…😢
I love Greggs vegan sausage rolls, they're the best non meat ones you can get. Glad you enjoyed it.
Iceland sell packs of them frozen 😃
Nice varied review again 👍
Makes a nice change to review vegan/veg Rosie!
Your reviews are diverse Garry, but always entertaining. Brilliant!
Thank you ever so much John
I have just stumbled on your videos Gary and I am now an avid fan , keep up the good work 👍 👌
That’s very kind to say thank you and I appreciate you watching and commenting
Love the variety of your videos for all walks of life brilliant again 👍
Glad you like them!
Last xmas, as a bit of fun, Greggs had a posh pop up restaurant in Fenwick's department store in Newcastle "Bistro Greggs". Menu included Steak Bake with Truffled Dauphinoise Potatoes, Green Beans & Almonds. Spicy Veg Curry Bake, Saffron Pilau Rice, Kachumber. Best of all The Greggs Benedict :- Sausage, Bean & Cheese Melt, Smoked Ham, Poached Cackle bean Eggs & Sauce Hollandaise.
I would have loved to try that
Was the beefy bake on the menu?😅😅
An early draft of the lyrics by George Michael, there.
Great video as always Gary you always manage to amuse yet be nice and fair. Good value food for the price. No Greggs in Ireland but my husband reminded me we were in Greggs in Manchester airport. Looking forward to the next one great work as always from the camera man. Sharon from Dublin
Thank you ever so much Sharon
Full speed ahead for 200k subscribers - well done, Gary! I've never been to Greggs, and I've lived in the UK
You’ve never been wow, and thank you very much
Thank you Gary! Another honest and balanced review!
Thank you so much Adrian
A Gary Eats video and the Spain France match coming up ,great way to spend an afternoon. Hope that everyone has a great day.
Agree! And the tennis at Wimbledon. 😊
And the Matchplay darts at the weekend👍
So many sports are on but thank you for watching me Bino
Looking forward to the footie too, might just grab a cool one from the fridge while i`m at it! Cheers.
Spain 2-1 prediction
Big fans from NZ here Gary, thanks for the mention! Hope you make it down here one day for a food tour!
I’m really hoping I can visit you next year
Another great and honest review - reaffirms why I've not been to Greggs for years! i wouldn't mind trying one of those vegan slices though , had a vegan burger by mistake at a BBQ once and it was fantastic 😁
Thank you!
Gregg's pastry gives me heartburn, so I avoid at all costs
Heliobactor pilori. Get tested
Because of the lard, greetings from a fellow heartburn sufferer.
I had a bacon & cheese wrap the other week for the first time in ages just before playing golf and felt horrible the whole round. Never again! (Actually that's probably why the vegan pastry was good on this review - it didn't contain any lard!)
Oh yes. The old Burp and Sizzle routine.
@@VenusDoom891yeh avoid eating Greg’s in general Man you are what you eat
Some fantastic recent videos, Gary. You and the cameraman put so much time and effort into polished products. Any plans to try out Bocca Di Lupo (perhaps followed by an ice cream over at gelupo across the road)? Keep up the great work guys - always looking forward to what’s in store!
Osteria Romana instead David, thank you!
Having left the uk 15 years ago, been back numerous times on holiday, I’ve never been to Gregg’s! Always fabulous quality from you as per usual!
Thank you ever so much David, hope you are doing well
Food is not kept warm as they would then have to charge VAT. [Also extra health checks.] I worked there for 28 years and while things may not be top end [and not meant to be] they are tasty, do the job and Greggs takes food safety very seriously. If you want to bake your own get them in Iceland!
Yes Mark, that's understandable
Unless hot i dont buy from Greggs
and the vat-they charge a standard 20% even if served COLD
@@dirtyharry3479 If it's eat in then they have to charge 20% hot or cold. If it's takeaway then it's zero rated.
I went there for the first time in 20 years They gave me a stone cold pie. I'll never go back. Enjoy your 20p saving
@@trotskyite1 There is a magic trick - you can ask for the fresher baked one and not be charged 20% VAT by the HMRC.
Greggs cheese pizza slice and vegan sausage roll are the travelling vegetarians best friend. The one in London Bridge Station is great.
Great to hear you enjoy it
The vegan ‘sausage’ roll are really good 👍
Not sure I'd like to know what's in their veg sausage roll ^^
@@jeanpeuplu5570I mean their normal "sausage" rolls only contain 18% pork content and I bet that's lips and bum holes.
@@helenledwith-hales4459I will try 😊
I love the steak bakes and when they are served piping hot I would give them an 8 everytime. All their products are good value and the shops near me are always busy.Another great revue and a very interesting venue.
Thank you very much, Robert. I do like the bakes but only when they’re hot.
Not been to Greggs and still haven't been to Nando's either, you make me feel as if I have had a sheltered life. Well done on the 100k subscribers. Fantastic achievement. Keep them coming.
Thank you ever so much Ian
Heya Gary! Late Congrats on 100K!!!! 🎊🍾🎊 I love the type of things that Greggs have, but they don't have them here. The only decent sausage roll is one I have to make myself.
🎉 thank you!!
I remember going into bakeries in the 80s and 90s, and everything was bigger and better than what Greggs serves up today.
Before Greggs and supermarkets started putting cheap, environmentally destroying palm oil rubbish in everything.
I understand your point completely, unfortunately, he’s taking over from local bakeries
Everything seems to be in puff pastry too . In Sheffield there’s a chain of pork sarnie shops who sell sausage rolls in shortcrust pastry . Divine
I miss Guildfords and Broomfields, proper old school bakeries!
18% pork content in their sausage rolls 😂
I am really not a vegatarian but it is great to see how you show that there also can be differances between veggie and meat food!
I totally agree!
Greggs is a guilty pleasure of mine i must admit. I went in for a sausage roll last week and ended up buying 2 chicken bakes , slice of pizza, another bake , and a doughnut.
Another good video , having my tea watching this . 😁
Bet there wasn’t any chicken in the bakes !
Thank you ever so much
None of the Greggs in Birmingham that I use are restaurants, they are cafés and some don’t have seating.
They are cheap and sometimes not very cheerful but you know what to expect before you get there!
You are right, they serve a purpose and make a fortune doing it.
Completely agree with you and this was like a restaurant, it was huge
Isnt serving your customers the key to business?
The one in Primark Birmingham is exactly like that.
@@kjp136 I’m a man , so Wild horses wouldn’t get me in there. Try Knights in Newhall St. if you fancy a nice breakfast in comfortable surroundings.
@@lestrem11 I don't understand, you said you used Greggs?
I'm so old I remember when Greggs pasties were 50p.
I'm glad someone else remembers when they were really cheap, thought that I was maybe imagining it.
Wow
Vegetable pasties were two for a quid in 2011
@@matthewlidis around 1999 you could get a bread roll and a hot soup for a quid.
I really love that you keep it real with the "everyday eats" Gary n son. We have never been to a Greggs but will try tomorrow with my boy. Mexican bobbyjobber and a donut in the post for my tummy!
I hope you have a really good visit and hopefully it’s hot
Canadian here and was amazed to see Gregg's in Primark! Glad to see a Greggs review. Keep up the good work!
That’s very kind to say thank you and thank you for watching from Canada
Got my cup of Yorkshire at the ready for this ☕️
Going to make myself one now whilst doing the comments Rosie, thank you
@@GaryEats a Rosie Lee 🙂
Where is this please?
@markchapman39 I'm talking about Yorkshire Tea 👍
@@GaryEatswhich Greggs is this please?
Can't believe you rated the vegan sausage roll high 😲 I've tried it myself and the texture alone was enough to send me running! All the best Gary!
I tried one. I gagged on it. Threw it away.
Food is subjective
I liked it. I think it's because I prefer the sausage roll hotter! Thank you!
They are the worst, just trying to please his vegan audience imo
@@TimmyRipkey-zj7sg I doubt that, he's just doing a varied review.
Gary what a great review I love your channel because you give all places a go as that is the hat makes your channel was step above the rest
We do try to mix things up on the channel Dan all different price points and all different types of food
Always nice to find a sit-in Greggs. Great to see them doing so well.
Glad you enjoy them
You are so funny when you preferred the veggie sausage roll to the standard one so unexpected! 😮
I watched a video on another channel, and they said the same when comparing standard and vegetarian sausage rolls from Greggs.
Thank you so much Ronnie
Veggie stuff in greggs is much better seasoned. As in, actually seasoned. Also meat quality is likely questionable.
Great vid Gary, i know Greggs has it's haters but for convenience and price you cant beat it.
From my experience some staff are moody but some are the life and soul of the party!
You are putting out loads of content... i think you both deserve Gary Eats on Holiday!
Btw @GaryEats I'm going to try the veggie sausage roll in the morning now! And may I also say well done to your lad for not sniggering when you said moist! 😂 credit where due!
I agree with you and holiday is coming soon for a few days but I will be back
lol he's a muppet he's always smirking behind the camera, give it a go
@@GaryEats My lad is 18 and he would be exactly the same!
You deserve a holiday... although I'm sure you will sneak in a review somewhere!
It's mad how all the fans in the background seem to keep their cool when young Gary's filming, honestly.
That’s very kind to see Spencer thank you very much. It did make me laugh.
Good review gary , when we come back to the uk on holiday i will give Greggs a body swerve
That sounds like a great idea, Gerald lol 😂
We had Brunch at The Queen's Hotel in Cheltenham today.
Had smoked salmon & scrambled eggs. Best scrambled eggs have ever tasted. Good value too!
Highly recommended.
Nice!
54 seconds ago!? Blimey let's goooo...Gary, you're a top bloke.
Oh why are you so kind, thank you and have a good week
You are the most down to earth and honest food reviewer I've ever come across on TH-cam Gary.
Keep up the good work mate!!
I really appreciate that, thank you Ali
Glad I've found your channel Gary. Breath of fresh air to TH-cam reviewers.
I appreciate that! Thank you Ross
I'm 35. When I was a kid a sausage roll was 25p. I feel like Greggs has increased it's prices well above the rate of inflation. Obviously still popular but for me, it's also lost it's roots since the days of a ham and pease stottie, meat and potato slice or a rainbow square cake.
I remember four hot sausage rolls for a pound, if you didn't eat them quickly the paper bag went translucent 😂 mmm grease
Yes seems to be the same everywhere
I'm no apologist for Greggs but all catering businesses have seen increases in the cost of ingredients, utility bills, wages, business rates and rent well in excess of inflation. They have to stay profitable, so it's the customer who ultimately pays.
Like your age, things increase. Understand Inflation, firstly.
Compared to many bakeries (although probably better) you have to weigh the cost to taste ratio also. Greggs does a job and a well done one for its market position.
can still get stotties there in north east
Glad to see you are experimenting with captions. Opens up a world of possibilities including, possibly a conversion guide from pound sterling to American dollars?
Good on you sir, all the best
Because Google is too hard? £1 = $1.25 roughly.
@@sarkybugger5009 should read snarky not sarky
Thank you ever so much Gordon. I will try my best to add that
Another great video Gary. I'm definitely going to try the vegan range tomorrow at my local Greggs. Appreciate your honesty, warmth and friendly demeanor. Top bloke 👍.
Thank you ever so much
Before I retired, I worked as a teacher in a centre for teenagers who were 'school-refusers' (some refused to go to school ... for some the schools refused to have them! Many of them relied on Greggs for their 'hot meal' of the day. It was a popular choice because of the price... on occasion I was known to grab a Baked Bean and Cheese Bake... Haute Cuisine?...Of course not, but it was filling, cheap and not unpalatable!
So sad the effect this must have on the child's bodily and mental development. Probably no vegetables or fruit which will affect their food choices for the rest of their lives.
@@sheilagalvin9342 You are right!... For many of the youngsters I worked with, their poor home life, including their diet ...was a factor in their troubled lives
I understand your comment,Wendy. we have to remember sometimes this is all we can afford
@@GaryEats By “we” you don’t really to include yourself. You mean the urban poor who are too disorganised or too disadvantaged to organise a decent, healthy meal for themselves. Only in Britain is this thought to be “normal”. In France, the working classes expect to eat well - and they do.
That should read “you don’t intend to include yourself.” You obviously eat well most of the time.
Greetings again from America, Mr. Eats! I’ve never been to Greggs, but I’ve heard of it often from many British youtubes. I probably could not eat much there, as I cannot have milk or eggs. And, yes, I know, that disqualifies probably around 80% of all British foods. I sometimes think that if I look at a map of England for long enough, my body might explode.
The gentleman asking if you were okay is actually fairly common over here in America, just with some tweaks. Upon approaching a fast food establishment such as Taco Hell - Roadkill Edition - a staff member will frequently meet you halfway and begin jogging/walking along with you. They will ask questions such as, “Is there a voice in your head talking to you right now?”, or “Do you often feel the need to eat paint chips?”, essentially this is a low-key psych evaluation. You’re supposed to fail, of course, and then they let you in. If you pass, they call the police immediately, because you’re obviously there to rob the joint.
Also, I think it would have been hilarious if the donut was piping hot! Like, too hot to even handle.
@@PootWindbreaker They do vegan food,with no eggs or milk used.
I have to admit the doughnut comment did make me laugh
gary was happy to see this pop up today i have been in hospital since friday. I had a gallstone stuck. So they said was sick and kind of out of it for a bit they took it out yesterday and i got to come home today. Great video lots of nice stuff. We don t have that over here. But we do hace a couple of fine bakeries in my town. Your looking good today in your jumper now i have to look back and see if i missed videos over the last few days. Thanks for taking us with you x
I hope you’re feeling a lot better today Carol. I’m sorry to hear you haven’t been well. xx
Thanks for covering all types of eateries Gary, very interesting.
Thank you Jane
I have to say that greggs is the the kind of place if you are hungry it fills the spot.i hate to come over as a spoilsport but greggs food is not very healthy.so its no surprise to me to see the pizza swimming in grease 🤢.thank you Gary for your review.positivity peace and love ♥️
Thank you so much
The Greggs Sausage Roll is also known " Greggs Dummy" if you see the young Mums in town their kids normally have one in the buggy to keep them quite lol. Someone may of said this before but to many comments to check! Good to see you are doing this type of review. Keep up the good work!
I haven't heard that before😂!
Also known as a pastyfier 😂
Thank you very much
The kids usually have the sausage roll in one hand and mum's phone in the other. 😢
Never heard of Greggs. Will be spending time in the UK over the coming year. Very useful review!
That’s very kind to say, thank you very much
A Greggs sausage roll with a cup of tea hits the spot. :)
Great honest review Gary. We know what we are getting, and we are not expecting michelin star quality but its nice to have a Greggs every once in a while. Loving your channel
Thats very kind to say thank you very much
Gary, you get around mate! The story of Greggs as a business turnaround from a small regional baker to as you say the largest food chain in Britain is incredible.
The reason for your pastry delights being lukewarm is to save them having to charge VAT on hot food, thus making their prices 20% cheaper than rival takeaways offering hot food. I agree a lukewarm sausage roll isn’t a patch on a hot one ❤
Thank you very much for the information. It’s really appreciated.
I miss the 90's Greggs, where the women would shout out "TWENTY IN!" and declare your wealth to everyone in 100 meters.
FIFTY IN surely?
I can’t watch this Gary it’s Greggs. What do you want? Always find them okay?
Thanks for watching John
No problem, onto the next
cos they were always dealing with chancers
Having left the UK in 1968, I have never seen or been to a Greggs. I travel back to the UK occasionally and try to find things that still exist when I lived their permanently. I do remember Harry Ramsdens in my hometown, no longer there, sadly. My sister, who lives in Preston, does buy from Greggs, next trip I'll try them. As always, Gary, a useful and informative revue. Don't forget the Gaviscon, lol.
Lucky escape!! Lol
Well, you’ve convinced me Gary….I’m going to have to try the Mexican vegan slice! I never go to Greggs but will definitely try it soon 😊 Always look forward to your reviews Gary 🎉
Thank you ever so much and let me know what you think
Greggs isn’t as nice as it was…..but I wouldn’t turn my nose up 😂
It's not my favourite lol
They have got a drive through in Irlam near Manchester.
In a future life, when I am a fat Northerner that would be my ultimate dream to live nearby 🤣🤣🤣
I have never been to Greggs, another great review cheers.
Glad you enjoyed it
I must admit that I’ve never tried any of their “veggie “ range BUT Gary you have inspired me to “give it a go” next time 😊
You know it makes sense Peter, as always give it a go lol 😂
the veggie sos roll is actually vegan..
Thanks Kelly
I’m vegetarian and I love their veggie sausage rolls and their vegan bakes. They definitely have more taste
Another great review Gary 😊
Thank you Liz!
They are not sausages
@@mikeblake1000neither are their "proper sausage" rolls. They contain 18% pork 🤣
I don’t think there’s any meat in any of the products anymore.
@@mikeblake1000 Get a life, stop being picky. I love them.
Great review. As always. We quite like some of Greggs produce. 😊
It’s great value Martin
Another great and honest review as we all know we are going to get. Greggs does the job like all the chain restaurants you know what you are getting. Personally I try and support the family owned places.
That's completely fair Douglas, more coming
Hello! 😊 This is going to be fun....🎉
Only ever had one Greggs sausage roll....now tempted to try the veggie one!....
Hope you enjoy!
Former Greggs worker here 🙋🏼♀️. The pasty tax is to blame for the pasties not being kept hot, so that the VAT increase doesn't get passed to the customer. Is a shame as im sure there are plenty out there who wouldn't mind paying the extra for hot pastys, but then it could price some out altogether. When i first started, sausage rolls were 50p, and they were 4 for £1.50. Steak/chicken bakes, etc, were £1, quickly up to £1.10 but you could then buy 2 for £2. Prices have just shot up!
Thank you very much for the information. It’s really appreciated.
@GaryEats Not a problem 😁. If you were ever curious I'd be happy to let you know what it's like behind the scenes 👍👍
Great Review again Gary. Have to say, way back when I lived in London on many building sites in the London, I was never disappointed with anything I got from Greggs. Only wish they made the same breakfast rolls back then. Showing my age now😂😂
Thank you ever so much David and only in your 40s mate lol
Finally you've come down to my level Gary ha ha 😂
Never Greeno lol top man
When you’re near a branch cooplands is a must in my opinion better than Greggs!
did you get kicked in the head by a horse?
Thanks for letting me know!!
Unless you’re DJ Audits the Staff at their main Factory were rude
you cant go wrong with 5 rolls for 1.65 at Cooplands
I’m not a great fan of Greggs but for a quick cuppa and a pastry it’s fine.
Cooplands on the other hand is gross, I’ve been twice and I’m not impressed.
I'm the one person who has never been to Greggs. I also hate football and have never seen Love Island, Big Brother, GOT etc......😎😎😎
All the things I hate too Chris 👍
I only go to Greggs outlet. 2 pasties £1.40 your not missing much not going to them there are far better places to get pies and pasties at that have more filling in. and less fatty
Morrisons pasties and pies have nicer pastry that's not greasy and have more filling in and are cheaper 2 pasties £2.50
Greggs is over hyped its not that good.
Aren’t you special…
me too ,only been too one rugby game ,and that was free, after the earthquake in Chch
As Dennis Nedru says in Jurassic Park. Nobody cares.
Great video Gary can’t go wrong with a greggs! Cheap and cheerful!
It’s exactly that Matty cheap and cheerful
Enjoy your videos a lot 😊keep it up
That’s very much appreciated, Ian
Our local Greggs must be different to this. Everything is piping hot, almost molten!
Same
I think it's about timing and good luck.
Timing
Trouble with greggs is there's nothing healthy. I'm not saying it's not nice food, its just not healthy.
I agree, almost everything Gregg's sells is junk and will make people die sooner (compared to eating whole foods).
Absolutely! People very rarely check ingredients or understand the way they affect body, mood and environment when putting so called 'food' in their mouths.
I agree, it's almost all junk and could have health implications if consumed regularly over time
Internal inflammation. Trans-fats..
They do quite a few salad options and sandwiches.
Love how you say you're sharing your food with the cameraman Gary !!......and then give him the leftovers with all your teeth marks in ...🤐😬😁
As always ....Brilliant !!! 👍
Thank you ever so much... he's so lucky isn't he lol
I'm not sure what makes your videos so entertaining, but Gary Eats before bed is quickly becoming part of the nightly routine.
Perfect cure for insomnia lol
Greggs - it’s exactly what you'd expect, straightforward and reliable.
I must say, I agree with you Gary about the veggie sausage roll. It is surprisingly delightful, but only when it's hot, fresh, and crispy.
Keep up the excellent work, Gary. Your quality, honest reviews are always appreciated!
That is so very considerate, thank you very much
I’ve never understood the fuss about Greggs..no meat in the pies or bakes often cold no flavours to the food.. sandwiches lacking filling as well
My thoughts exactly
It's mostly that it's the one of the only places serving food that doesn't cost a million pounds. You're not buying gourmet food, but the price is right. Too many places serve crap at high prices, so it's not even about you getting what you pay for. Signed from a Greggs enjoyer.
Because instead of spending £8 at Costa, I can spend £4 at Greggs and get the exact same.
Shame it's not hot
Greggs have rightly become a national institution based on acceptable quality and consistency allied to incredible vfm. They shame the likes of Pret a Manger.
Gary you da man
Greggs serves a purpose I work in construction these days and find myself regularly calling in to a greggs on my lunch break 😂😂

Interesting Gary to my knowledge not been to a Greggs, I now know to go veggy if I do thank you. Just noticed your channel is growing in leaps and bounds, well done.
Thank you ever so much
A mega Greggs inside a Primark store! Talk about hitting your target audience! It’s a well known fact that Gregg’s produce is either stone cold or thermonuclear hot - never just the right temperature. Greggs sausage rolls and Yum Yums - the stuff of legends! My mark, 8/10 for what it is…
Thurston's before it was Greggs was a class above Greggs. It is 20 + years since I tasted fast food pasties, sausage rolls etc due to a severe allergy to onions and mushrooms. When I asked Greggs if their products contained these two ingredients and informed them of my severe allergy, they refused to serve me, as they hadn't a clue to whether they contained them.

Nice!!!
Wow didn't expect such a generous score
That's my experience, usually luke warm at best or off the scale hot, rarely in between - but I do keep going back regardless if I need something to fill the gap. A solid 7 as Gary would say.
@@GaryEats horses for courses, Gary! You certainly get what you pay for, no more, no less.! The target audience wants something (sometimes!) hot , cheap and filling. And they are consistent! Even the bacon is delivered pre-laid out on metal trays…
I had never had a Greggs despite all the hype until a few months ago. Decided to give it a go and got 2 sausage rolls. Needless to say the weren't great so I probably will never be back.
I understand completely
A brilliant review Gary, I will defiantly have to try out their Vegetarian options, I have heard some people prefer them to the meat products,
I'm with you on their caramel doughnut and their other flavours.
Thank you very much, Steve. I was surprised how good the vegan and vegetarian range was.
Gary I'm learning every time I watch your videos , I didn't know Greggs had a restaurant let alone the biggest chain restaurant, Thanks for the education, again, I must get out more LOL 🤔
You know me, Malcolm. I’m full of useless information. lol 😂
Nice review! I had 4 Gregg's sausage rolls for lunch today and boy were they tasty... They went down nicely.
I've never seen a proper Gregg's sit-down restaurant like this..
4 you greedy bugger 😂😂😂
Thank you so much
ok fatty
I never thought I’d see a man of your calibre in this establishment !?
Get off your high-horse.
I try anything, Danny
