Greggs and Fenwick launch Bistro Greggs pop-up
The restaurant will offer a fine dining experience, with dishes served under silver cloches by waiters in Bistro Greggs aprons and traditional white shirts and ties
Family-owned department store Fenwick is collaborating with leading food retailer Greggs on a pop up at Fenwick Newcastle.
Launching on Friday 1 December, and running to New Year’s Eve, Bistro Greggs will be an all-day dining destination, from 9am to 8pm serving breakfast, brunch and lunch dishes from a Parisian-inspired space on the department store’s first floor.
Bistro Greggs will offer a fine dining experience, with dishes served under silver cloches by waiters in Bistro Greggs aprons and traditional white shirts and ties.
The restaurant will serve bespoke iterations of Greggs menu items, paired with Fenwick Food Hall wines and a signature cocktail created by award winning bar, Mother Mercy at Fenwick Newcastle – the “pink jammie fizz” inspired by Greggs pink jammie doughnut.
The lunch menu at Bistro Greggs sees it served a-la-carte with duck-fat roasties, smoked pancetta, chestnuts and sprouts, and the steak bake with truffled dauphinoise potatoes, green beans and almonds.
For breakfast and brunch, highlights include the “Greggs Benedict” – a Greggs sausage, bean and cheese melt reimagined with smoked ham, poached Cacklebean eggs and a Hollandaise sauce.
Bistro Greggs will also serve “High Tea” for two, where guests can enjoy a three-tier sharing brunch with peach melba, yum yum bites paired with chocolate sauce and banana, alongside a Greggs croissant, pain au chocolat and a sausage roll.
The Bistro Greggs pop-up restaurant draws design inspiration from the traditional bistros of Saint-Germain and features white-clothed tables, velvet banquette seating and marble countertops. A colour palette of Greggs instantly recognisable blue and Fenwick’s signature green is accented with white and brass to nod to each brand’s look.
Leo Fenwick, strategic partnerships director at Fenwick, said: “Fenwick and Greggs are two brands at the heart of the local community with a commitment to doing good and we are thrilled to be partnering with a much-loved brand, bringing a unique and delicious twist to the everyday Greggs experience at Fenwick.”
Hannah Squirrell, customer director at Greggs, said: “The launch of Bistro Greggs marks a watershed moment as we take our first step with Fenwick into classic French-inspired fine dining. Showcasing popular favourites across our menu, we’ve created an accessible menu featuring eloquent dishes with a modern twist, elevated through Fenwick’s gastronomic excellence and expertise.”
