if a don could kindly make this a poll.

me and some mates were arguing about it

Peters or Greggs bakery, from what ive heard peters is a north east thing so many of you may not have a clue

i say peters

Nope, never heard of Peters.

Greggs was better as Thurstons.

A poll about a bakery :confused:

I love the Greggs sausage rolls. 3 for 1.30, nice for my dinner

Sanzy · 8 Apr 2006 at 18:49

i love gregs cheese and onion pasties

I never dared to enter Peter's it's Greggs all the way (I'm from Sunderland). As for their popularity all I can say is that we have 2 Peters' in city centre and 5 or 6 Greggs.

I like the chicken, bacon and lettuce subs from Peters but Greggs do better cheese and onion pasties. Peters seem to over spice everything to the point that you can't taste the food.

bakers oven is a lot better.

greggs have a horrid smell about the place.. sickly

greggs

Never go to Peters.

Greggs for sausage rolls, steak bakes and soft cheese and ham buns

Bakers Oven for chicken and bacon bagettes

They're yummy!

Morba · 8 Apr 2006 at 18:53

ive seen both down here in south wales. no preference over either

That suprises me because they were on the local news a lot a few months back when their main factory was burnt down.

Steak Bake from Thurstons (I mean Greggs)

Editted

Couldn't think of one at first, then thought of one and then I was just silly

Far from being classed as Northern (though my Southern mates insist that technically I am), but Greggs is a legendary shop offering value for money. A while back, I could wander in and purchase a whole shelfs worth with only the shrapnel in my pocket.

Agreed

lemonkettaz · 8 Apr 2006 at 19:15

not anymore then

to the "shrapnel in pocket" comment.... maybe im poor

Warspite · 8 Apr 2006 at 19:20

Greggs and their steak bakes, sausage rolls are ok, but too many and I start to feel ill

Only noticed Peters Bakers in Sunderland, but never go there

Kol · 8 Apr 2006 at 19:21

Ham and cheese melts are where it's at. Clearly. Even the vegetarians would be tempted to the dark side.

Hedge · 8 Apr 2006 at 19:27

everything in greggs is yellow. it all looks the same. i dont like greggs much at all

peters do much better pasties. and bakers oven do the best sandwiches.

greggs is the worst out of all the highstreet bakers up here.
