Greggs has introduced two brand new items to its high street menu today - but they are only available in 20 stores nationwide. The bakery chain has launched Pulled Pork Sandwiches onto its menu as part of a new trial.
For now, the sandwiches are available in 20 stores in the northeast, and if successful, they could be added to more menus across the country. You can find the full list of participating stores below.
‌
For just £4, the sandwiches are made fresh in stores and are available in two variations. Customers can either opt for the traditional option of pulled pork with apple sauce and crispy onions in a soft corn-topped roll - which contains 469 calories.
‌
If that doesn't take their fancy, they can choose the BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich with Slaw, which contains 430 calories. The new sandwiches are available to order from the counter and are part of Greggs' hot sandwich deal – which includes any hot sandwich or Southern Fried Potato Wedges, with any cold drink from £5.50.
Customers can also get them through delivery via Just Eat and Uber Eats, and through Click + Collect on the Greggs App in shops where the trial is taking place
Alongside the new pulled pork trial, Greggs has also launched a loyalty app shake-up for this month. The limited-time offer gives customers double stamps for select purchases made between 11am and 2pm.
The promotion is available across four different categories each week. This week, double stamps are available on all hot, cold and made-to-order sandwiches. So those wanting to try the new pulled pork sandwich could potetially get double the stamps for it if they buy it betwen 11am and 2pm.
From June 9 until June 15, customers can get double stamps for "Hot Snacks" and from June 16 to June 22, double stamps are available on a range of bakes. However, the offer does not include the chain's famous Sausage Roll or Vegan Sausage Roll.
‌
Finally, on the final week - from June 23 until June 29 - customers can get double stamps when they buy any ice drink.
For every nine stamps collected in the category on the Greggs app, you can redeem a free menu item within that category. So under the offer, you could get two stamps for every eligible menu item, meaning you'll be able to claim the freebie quicker. The double stamps will be rewarded after scanning the Greggs App on a valid purchase in-store or after completing a click-and-collect order.
‌
If you haven't signed up for the loyalty scheme, you can do so by downloading the Greggs app and creating an account.
New members can redeem a free hot drink upon registration and a free sweet treat on their birthday. Customers with an account can also order through click-and-collect if they want to avoid the queues.
