Greggs

I only found this branch of Greggs by chance — I have never noticed it before until a few months ago when I needed to visit one of the building nearby, despite being on the quayside quite a lot! Is it a new branch? I don’t know. Anyway, it’s only a tiny branch I guess it’s mainly there to service those who work at the numerous solicitors nearby. They don’t have a great deal of choice in sandwiches unlike the massive Greggs on Northumberland street, but they do have the usual sausage rolls and pasties. What I find slightly offputting is there is always a Big issue seller perched outside the door just waiting. I have nothing against Big issue sellers but I always feel so guilty passing them by! Anyway all in all this is a nice little branch, well located especially for the Great North run and other events which centre around the Quayside.
