Fenwick and Greggs are once again teaming up and this time it’s to launch a new pub called The Golden Flake Tavern.

After the pub sign was spotted in Blackett Street, the joint venture was announced yesterday and it is guaranteed to delight steak bake fans and shoppers alike.

The collaboration follows the success of previous joint ventures Bistro Greggs at Fenwick in 2023 and last year's popup Greggs Champagne Bar which, as previously reported, was described as a ‘world’s first’ when it launched on the store's ground floor.

Now they’re breaking new ground again with a pub which is now all set to open in the city centre store on Saturday. The Golden Flake - their biggest venture so far - will occupy the former Arthur’s club in Fenwick.
