Have you heard the news? The menu at Greggs has received a fancy revamp, just in time for Christmas. Now, you may be wondering where to go for a taste of some prestigious bubbles this holiday season. Well, look no further than Greggs, of course.
Following the success of last year's Greggs Bistro in the North East, where pastry enthusiasts could indulge in a fine dining experience featuring the iconic bakery's menu, Greggs is stepping it up a notch. They are bringing a champagne bar to Newcastle, located in the department store Fenwick.
This pop-up champagne bar will be open every day from 11:30am until closing time, starting October 24th and lasting all the way until New Year's Eve. Alongside their fan favorite bakes and sweet treats, the bar will also be serving Bollinger Rosé and Laurent Perrier by the glass or bottle.
But wait, it gets even better. The Greggs Champagne Bar will be the only place in the North East where you can savor a glass of the prestigious Louis Roederer Cristal, for the small fortune of £75 per glass. That's definitely a fancy upgrade for the beloved Greggs.
And the excitement doesn't end there. Customers will also have the opportunity to try out signature Greggs-inspired cocktails such as the Yum Yum Twist, Cream Éclair, and a non-alcoholic Peach Melba mocktail. Plus, they will be bringing back the beloved Pink Jammie Fizz from Bistro Greggs.
Now, let's talk about the food. The menu, curated by Fenwick's executive head chef Mark Reid, will take fan-favorite snacks to the next level with contemporary condiments. For example, the famous Sausage, Bean & Cheese Melt will now be paired with Bloody Mary ketchup, and the sausage roll will come with a hot honey chilli sauce. Delectable doesn't even begin to describe it.
Small plates will start at £4 and prosecco will be available starting at £10 per glass or £37 per bottle. Champagne options will be priced at £10 per glass or £55 per bottle. And for those who want to indulge in a cocktail, prices start at £11, while the non-alcoholic Peach Melba will only set you back £7.
Hannah Squirrell, Customer Director at Greggs, expressed her excitement for the launch of the champagne bar at Fenwick, saying, "Whilst champagne and Greggs might not be the most immediate food and drink pairing, following the success and reaction to our Greggs Bistro last year, we're excited for the launch of the Greggs Champagne Bar at Fenwick."
But with an upgrade in food, comes an uplift in price. So, if you're planning to dine out at the Greggs Champagne Bar, be mindful that things may be a little pricier than your usual trip to Greggs.
The menu offers a variety of small plates, such as the Sausage Roll with Hot Honey Chilli Sauce or the Vegan Sausage Roll with Harissa Coconut Yoghurt, both priced at £4. Feeling fancy? You can also indulge in a Steak Bake with Peppercorn Aioli for £4.95 or a Chicken Bake with Katsu Curry Sauce and Pickled Cucumber for £4.75.
And let's not forget about those delicious cocktails. The Pink Jammie Fizz, crafted by Mother Mercy, is priced at £11 and features flavors of raspberry, apple, and fresh doughnuts, topped with prosecco. Or try out the Yum Yum Twist, a sweet sugar-glazed cocktail made with real Yum Yums and rum, for £11. Feeling indulgent? The Cream Éclair, made with rich vanilla vodka and dark chocolate liqueur, is priced at £12. And for those looking for a non-alcoholic option, the Peach Melba is a refreshing blend of peach and cream for £7.
The bar also offers a variety of prosecco and champagne options, starting at £10 per glass for Ca di Alte Prosecco and going all the way up to £75 per glass for Louis Roederer Cristal.
Leo Fenwick, strategic partnerships director at Fenwick, expressed his excitement for the partnership with Greggs, saying, "After the phenomenal success of last year's Bistro Greggs at Fenwick, we are proud to once again partner with the fellow North East icon, Greggs, to launch Greggs Champagne Bar at Fenwick, offering a fun and truly unique customer experience."
