Greggs is opening its first-ever pub, in collaboration with department store Fenwick.
The Golden Flake Tavern will be based within the flagship Fenwick Newcastle store, and is set to open on Saturday (27 September).
It promises to be a “quintessential British pub experience”, reimagined with a “signature menu featuring a Greggs twist”.
Greggs noted that the pub’s “pièce de résistance” would be held every Sunday as it presented “the ultimate twist on the traditional Sunday carvery”. Customers will be able to choose from a steak bake, chicken bake or cheese and onion bake as the centerpiece of their roast.
From there, diners will be able to add trimmings including cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings.

Alongside a fully stocked bar and a Greggs inspired cocktail menu, the pub will serve two exclusive Greggs-inspired beers on draft: The pink jammie pale ale, and the Gosforth 1939 stottie lager.
Both beers will be available to buy in the Fenwick food hall, either separately or in two festive formats.
The pub marks the latest tie-up between the two Northeast brands, following the Bistro Greggs in December 2023 and the Greggs champagne bar in 2024.
Greggs customer director Hannah Squirrell said: “Following the reaction and success of our previous collaborations with Fenwick — Bistro by Greggs in 2023 and the Greggs champagne bar last year — we’re thrilled to be launching our third landmark venture together.
“The Golden Flake Tavern brings a fresh twist to the traditional British pub experience, and we hope everyone who joined us before, along with many new faces, will come along to enjoy this unique Greggs experience.”
