Greggs in Shropshire

Had a fantastic experience in Greggs today. Was served by a lovely gentleman Will, who helped me choose a Steak Beak and a Cappuccino regular. I enjoyed both, big thanks to the team of fantastic staff for also keeping the seating area clean and tidy!

Went into Greggs about 5.00pm, was pretty quiet. I had no problems with any staff, they were polite, however my problem was with the food. So we ordered two drinks, two sausage rolls and a novelty cake/bun for my daughter. After packing our sausage rolls, the man then asked what novelty bun we would like. While my daughter choosing there were three big dirty flies flying all around the cakes (possibly been around the sausage rolls too). I was hesitant to still purchase the cake but because of my anxiety i felt i couldn’t change my mind because of a fly. Even the customers behind me were saying ‘eww look at the flies’. Safe to say my daughter did not eat the cake, i threw it away as soon as i got home. However because we were on a day trip, being 6 months pregnant i was on the verge of passing out if i didnt eat. So after really close inspection i decided to eat the sausage roll. However all i could think about was how i hope it doesn’t make me poorly…WELL fast forward a few hours i had horrendous nausea and stomach pain. I had diarrhoea and sickness that evening/night. Could have been a coincidence but then again, there were A LOT of flies landing on food. I am so glad i didn’t allow my daughter to eat her cake that day.

Always stock up on their bread when we are in the area to take home to Wales, great sausage rolls also
