Greggs opens first Scottish drive-thru bakery with new shop just outside Edinburgh

Greggs has opened a new outlet today in Dalkeith, creating 16 new jobs for the area.

The new shop is the first Greggs with drive-thru service to open in Scotland as the on-the-go retailer continues to expand its drive-thru portfolio.

The shop will stock famous Scottish delicacies such as Lorne Sausage and Pineapple Tart, as well as all the freshly prepared Greggs favourites, including its popular Sausage Roll, Steak Bakes and vegan items.

Greggs’ velvety smooth flat white and warming tea are among the hot drinks on offer at the new shop, all of which are 100% Fairtrade.

Customers will be able to make click-and-collect orders via the Greggs app, while delivery orders can be made via Just Eat.

The shop will be open from:

  • 5:30am -7pm Monday-Friday
  • 6:30am-6pm Saturday
  • 6:30am-5pm Sunday.

Locals will be able to take advantage of Greggs’ deals throughout the week, including its famed breakfast combinations, offering a breakfast roll or baguette alongside an orange juice or hot drink - served until 11am every day.

Shop manager Andy Ewing said: “We can’t wait to welcome both Greggs fans and new customers to our brand-new shop. We’ve got an amazing range of tasty bakes, hot drinks, sweet treats and savouries available for takeaway, click and collect or Just Eat delivery.”

Roisin Currie, Retail and People Director for Greggs, said: “Our new shop in Dalkeith has brought 16 new jobs to the local area, as well as providing customers with a modern, convenient new place to experience their favourite Greggs food on-the-go.”

The Dalkeith shop opens with a fresh new look and comfortable indoor seating. The location also includes a hot counter so customers can purchase some of Greggs favourite hot items such as Southern fried chicken goujons and potato wedges.
