The gentleman serving today around 12.15pm wasn’t very pleasant! Practically throwing items at customers. He had no time for the customers. I got the impression that he couldn’t get rid of the customers quick enough!! He lacked good customer service. It would put me off returning to this Greggs!!

Was just very rudely spoken to by the person behind the counter in this Greggs, I asked very politely for 2 cappuccinos and the person behind the counter, who was slouched over and sitting on the food/work surface said in an aggressive tone “coffee machine doesn’t work” and that’s it, they didn’t give no alternative or even apologise. Food is great.

Extremely disappointed in the shop today no vegan sausage rolls was offered a curry pasty for breakfast disgusting. I asked for an omellette bap with no butter to be told all the baps had been buttered i asked why was this to save time also told no bagettes available either. When i asked to speak to the manager they were no were to be found very poor service.

I called on my way to a training afternoon for a quick lunch on the go. I ordered a vegan sausage roll which I have had in other greggs previously and know they are really nice. I paid and it was handed to me and o realised it was stone cold despite it being in the heated display shelf. I asked if it could be heated. The man server just looked at me and said no we can’t do that. No explanation, no smile he just started serving the next person. So I had it cold outside in the car and it really wasn’t very nice, you defining need them hot.

I ordered hot food and coffee, and the young untrained server bagged the food and and informed me it was cold. I asked if he could reheat it, and he said they're not allowed to. OK, if those are the rules, I can accept that. I declined the now cold food as it was not what I had ordered, and he said "so just the coffee then?" I said I didn't particularly want the coffee now, given that I had ordered hot food and coffee, and the hot food was unavailable. His colleague plonked a cup of coffee on the counter and said abruptly "that's £1.80". There was no indication of when the hot food would be replenished, no acknowledgement that my order was incomplete and therefore unwanted. And most importantly no courtesy. The two staff gave the impression they don't like dealing with customers, and with that attitude maybe they won't have to much longer.

At this Greggs outlet staff were handling food and money without using latex gloves. This is unhygienic at any time but considering the spread of Coronavirus it was unsafe for customers. Usually one staff member would handle the food and the other handle money. They were handling both without any latex gloves.

Everytime you go in the items are very cold and when you ask if there's any hot ones on its way your told the standard answer of it will be at least 15 mins. Very poor.

i was in greggs about a week ago and i came across a pleasant young chap and he was very helpful and helped me choose my lunch. I spoke to a young boy, he gave me some advice on the bacon baps, steak bakes and caramel custard donuts, they were magestic. i will be back soon to experience this again as he was a very delightful young fellow!!!! I think greggs is the most magestic place to eat in the applegreen as all the food on selection is wonderful and the bakery is very great!!!!!

I first approached the then CEO of Greggs in 2010 about moving into NI and bot it took them 5 years to make the move and boy was it great. All there stores are performing great, a success. So we'll done. Applegreen made the decision and I welcome them, they are a credit. Let's hope they (greggs) make the big decision and move into the South.

Around lunchtime I drove in to the new service station near Templepatrick in Northern Ireland for a coffee and a sandwich. As Subway didn't do de-caff coffee, it was suggested I try the Greggs outlet next door. I am mostly vegetarian, and all I could see were sausage rolls, pasties and some very dried up looking pizza slices, so I thought, okay, today I'll be a carnivore and so ordered what I thought was a Cornish Pastie (labelling very small). The young man said it was a corned beef pastie, so I thought well doesn't matter, assume it contains a little bit of meat, some potato and carrot. Greggs is new to N, Ireland, but I had heard them ridiculed often by stand-up comics on TV and radio, so I knew I was getting a stodgy fast food sort of deal. I enjoy good food generally, but am not above visiting the local chip shop on occasion. However on biting into the pastie, found it tasted of nothing, the filling was a pink mush with bits of brown/greyish matter, nothing that resembled any kind of meat I could recognise and definitely no vegetables. I squeezed out the filling and tried nibbling the flaky pastry around the edges. It was really greasy, like it had been deep fried. I thought about taking the meat filling home for the cat (since it resembled Kit-e-Kat), but on second thoughts decided no, he probably wouldn't eat it either. I started to feel nauseous, but finished my coffee (not now sure if it was in fact de-caff, because I started to get heart palpitations, but maybe that was just the stress. I left and drove home, feeling like I might need to throw up at any time. After a few hours, peppermint tea and indigestion relief, just about feel recovered, but I will definitely never attempt to eat anything from Greggs again. They should be banned on health grounds.

I have to agree with others who have reviewed Greggs. Overrated definitely. I personally didn't think they have a good choice on menu so I opted for a boring bit of shortbread. Staff were friendly enough and it's a lovely pit stop but next time I'll be buying elsewhere. We bought sausage rolls for home and can honestly say our local bakery in Rathcoole offer a far superior tasting one.

Visited here twice in the past few weeks. It is quite small and compact but there is ample seating in the services to make up for it. The food is ok and reasonably priced, the ham and cheese toasties are recommended (if in stock) However both times I have been the service has been awful. Very rude inexperienced staff, that are unable to answer any queries without being blunt and nonchalant. Also unable to listen to what a customer asks for and get their order correct. Serving the wrong items to me on both visits, and to other customers too. The actual service station is bright and clean and worth a visit, plenty of other eateries to choose from.

Visited the Halt recently for a family meal out. The restaurant was quiet, service was adequate. Server was friendly and bar tender also friendly however when I visited the restaurants toilets I was very disappointed as they look as though they have not been cleaned in a very long time. Fake tan marks on toilet seat and feaces on the inner rim of the toilet and bins appeared not to have been emptied in a while and mirror filthy. Made me question the cleanliness of the kitchen this had put me off returning. Hopefully the team at the Halt will improve there cleaning skills as the food is good.

I was shopping in Next today & decided to go for my usual coffee at Ground, which I’ve been doing on a weekly basis for years I needed to use the bathroom beforehand but when I tried to enter the toilets they were locked. A male server shouted over to me that they were for Ground customers only & they required a code to enter. As I started to explain, a female server came over to me & repeated that the toilets were for customer use only. I explained that I WAS a customer but needed to use the ladies before I ordered. As it was lunchtime there was a queue & I needed the toilet immediately, after which I would order. This female server abruptly said “you’ll get the code when you get your receipt!” I tried to explain that I needed the toilet there & then & before I could explain that I am registered disabled she walked off. I was shocked at this behaviour, very embarrassed & walked away. I walked around the mall to use the centre toilets & went into Cafe Nero where I was greeted & welcomed & enjoyed my coffee & cake. The behaviour of the staff in Ground was disgusting, discriminating & totally unacceptable. I will never use this cafe again & will be reporting their actions to the relevant agencies under the Disability Discrimination Act.
