...wow. Wasn't expecting much but if the "steak bake" and "sausage roll" I had was anything to go by then thats my first and last time.
To cap it all... you're in Devon and you don't do pasties? Apparently the nearest GREGGS that does them is Plymouth!
IIRC they're £1.20....what were you expecting? To cap it all... you're in Devon and you don't do pasties? Apparently the nearest GREGGS that does them is Plymouth!
When I was "In" the office and hadn't taken sandwiches in I'd quite happily get a couple of Cheese & Onion pasties
Sausage Rolls are OK. They're a quid at the end of the day.
Steak Bakes are good too - again, change from £1.50
Don't know what happened to cheese & ham bakes. They were lovely.
At the end of the day it's one of the cheapest 'foods' you can buy on the high street - it's not going to be gourmet is it?

Gregg's founder's name was Greig but he was advised the company's demographic wouldn't cope with it.
Err, no it wasn't. Greggs is named after the founder John Gregg, who started the business in Newcastle in 1951.But not a very good joke by all accounts.

t at the cost of stocking things like their steak pies - you know, the things most customers actually go there for.
Greggs makes a passable breakfast roll and their coffee is drinkable and sensibly priced.
Steakbakes are nice.
Their sausage rolls are disgusting though
Cornish people didnt like a greggs pastie so they shut their shop and left the county

They may have kicked them our originally but they are in a couple of service stations and Saltash according to the map.https://inews.co.uk/news/consumer/greggs-closed-co...
Having looked at their website and seen what they stick in their "pasties" I'm quite glad I didnt have one. Today was only my second trip out since Christmas and having acquired several bottles of real ale I quite fancied and afternoon in the garden with a decent pasty.
Instead I got a skanky sausage roll and something that looked lie it had been stepped on.
I half blame Mrs21, shes the one who suggested it as it avoided going into town with a million grocs.
And... to describe themselves as a bakery??!!!

Devonish pasties... 
I think traditionally Devon pasties are crimped over the top rather than down the side like Cornish ones.
