This Valentine’s Day, food-on-the-go retailer Greggs has teamed up with OpenTable, the world’s leading restaurant booking service, to open its doors for couples to enjoy a romantic, candlelit dinner in its shops for the very first time.
Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a Steak Bake
This Valentine’s selected Greggs shops will be transformed into restaurants designed for romance, complete with mood lighting and music, roses, candelabras and white linen tablecloths.
Instead of ordering at the till, diners will be waited on at their own tables in the retailer’s first’fine dining’ experience, while classical music plays in the background.
Billed as the ultimate Valentine’s treat for the Greggs fan in your life, the one-night-only menu will be made entirely from Greggs’ food given a special Valentine’s twist.
