Greggs has partnered with department store Fenwick to open its first-ever pub, The Golden Flake Tavern.
Launching in the flagship Fenwick Newcastle store on 27 September, the site looks to offer a British pub experience with a menu that features Greggs-inspired pub dishes.
Curated by Fenwick executive chef Mark Reid, the menu includes a Chicken Bake Parmo, Steak Bake Mixed Grill, Sausage Roll and Mash, Greggs Ploughman’s Platter, Yum Yum Bread and Butter Pudding, and a Pink Jammie Trifle.
Every Sunday, The Golden Flake Tavern will offer a twist on the traditional Sunday carvery, allowing customers to choose from a Steak Bake, Chicken Bake or Cheese and Onion Bake as the centrepiece of their roast. This will be served alongside cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings.
The food-to-go giant will also be offering a Greggs-inspired cocktail menu and two exclusive beers on draught, including The Pink Jammie Pale Ale and the Gosforth 1939 Stottie Lager.
Both beers, which have been crafted in collaboration with local brewery Full Circle Brew Co, will also be available to purchase in the Fenwick Food Hall and online.
The pub will be open daily between 11am and 7pm with weekly quiz nights, and available for private hire until 15 February.
It marks the latest in a series of collaborations between Greggs and Fenwick, following on from Bistro Greggs in December 2023, which served a menu of the food-to-go retailer’s fine-dining interpretations, and the Greggs Champagne Bar in 2024.
“Following the reaction and success of our previous collaborations with Fenwick, we’re thrilled to be launching our third landmark venture together,” said Greggs customer director Hannah Squirrell.
”The 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.”
Fenwick strategic partnerships director Leo Fenwick added: ”This latest collaboration celebrates the best of both brands, pairing Greggs’ much-loved classics with our own distinctive approach to creating memorable in-store experiences.
“As two north east icons, we’re proud to work together again in offering customers something playful, surprising, and truly unique in the heart of Newcastle.”
