High street food chain Greggs (GRG.L<\/a>) is to open its first pub serving exclusive beers and a menu featuring its classic bakes and sausage rolls.<\/p>\n

The Golden Flake Tavern is opening within the Fenwick Newcastle department store and will serve its first pint on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Two exclusive beers on draft \u2013 the Pink Jammie Pale Ale and the Gosforth 1939 Stottie Lager \u2013 have both been developed in partnership with the Newcastle-based Full Circle Brew Co for the opening.<\/p>\n

The fully-stocked bar will also feature a Greggs-inspired cocktail menu.<\/p>\n

Diners can choose from a menu of 15 Greggs-inspired traditional pub dishes, including chicken bake Parmo, steak bake mixed grill, sausage roll & mash and a Greggs ploughman\u2019s platter.<\/p>\n

The dessert menu features yum yum bread & butter pudding and pink jammie trifle, a dish of doughnut pieces set in jelly, topped with jam, custard and whipped cream.<\/p>\n

The traditional Sunday carvery \u2013 which the pub describes as its \u201cpiece de resistance\u201d \u2013 will be a choice of steak bake, chicken bake or cheese & onion bake as the centrepiece of the roast, with trimmings including cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings.<\/p>\n

The pub will host a quiz night every Tuesday from October 7, with tickets available for \u00a35 for teams of up to six people.<\/p>\n

The Golden Flake is the latest collaboration between Greggs and Fenwick following on Bistro Greggs in December 2023, which served a multi-course menu of Greggs fine-dining interpretations, and the Greggs Champagne Bar in 2024, which saw 8,000 guests enjoy a sausage roll paired with a glass of Champagne throughout the nine-week experience.<\/p>\n

Hannah Squirrell, customer director at Greggs, said: \u201cFollowing the reaction and success of our previous collaborations with Fenwick \u2013 Bistro by Greggs in 2023 and the Greggs Champagne Bar last year \u2013 we\u2019re thrilled to be launching our third landmark venture together.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fenwick strategic partnerships director Leo Fenwick said: \u201cThis latest collaboration celebrates the best of both brands, pairing Greggs\u2019 much-loved classics with our own distinctive approach to creating memorable in-store experiences.<\/p>\n
