Apparently putting a Greggs in the "poshest" town in the coutry is akin to 'putting a sex shop in a senior school'! FFS........

'Like a sex shop in a school': How Britain's poshest town feels about Greggs

Among old cottages, a Tudor watchtower, a cheese shop, and two boarding schools, Greggs has arrived in the upmarket market town of Bruton, Somerset. Locals have mixed opinions

She’s not had one of their ham and cheese baguettes.

They have PERFECTED the ham to cheese ratio.

It’s practically wizardry.

Fair enough - but they should never be forgiven for discontinuing the Tuna Crunch.

Discontinued tuna crunch? Whatwhat? You can still get them in my local Greggs …. Say it ain’t so!

Get a Yum-Yum in ya Anouschka!

We have a new, rather upmarket Greggs where you can sit down to eat in our quite posh royal town. It's usually very busy!

Could pp mean the tuna crunch bloomer? They still do the baguette (I think)

Yes - don't usually prefer sliced bread - but those were soooo good! Went years ago.

Why do people post links that cost money to read?
I get the gist though, and yes, they're just snobs.

Like fuck is anywhere in SOMERSET Britain's poshest town.

Harsh but fair!

She really is getting worked up about very little. She needs to get a life

livingafulllife · 12/12/2024 13:08

Its not just her op that needs to get a grip a lot of women need to get a grip.

Oh right phew ! Thanks for confirming. The baguette is safe …

She’ll change her tune once she gets a hot baguette and a caramel custard doughnut down her.

The last time I visited Bruton (my grandparents live there), I heard a resident pronounce the town’s name with a French accent and it turned my stomach.

Do they put the water into a bouquet to mop the kitchen floor?

NoDought · 13/12/2024 08:47

Well in Newcastle (the home of Greggs) we have a Greggs champagne bar, so if she plays her cards right, it may get upgraded 😂😂😂

Cragbag · 13/12/2024 19:45

I voted, but I misunderstood what was said. I voted YES, meaning that I am pro-Greggs and against nimbyism and snobbery. I wondered why so few others voted YES, and realised I'd misread the motion. Sorry!!!

solvendie · 13/12/2024 20:06

Wait until she gets a Greggs Too Good To Go bag…..she’ll be delighted 😁
