While this isn’t the first drive thru store, it is the first one ever in Scotland.

It is reported that Newcastle-headquarters are already planning on adding another store to its drive-thru portfolio in Glasgow.

In fact, Glasgow City Council already granted the planning permission last year for a location in Great Western Retail Park.

The store will operate on the following opening hours:

5:30am - 7pm on Mondays to Fridays

6:30am-6pm on Saturdays

6:30-5pm on Sundays

The opening of this new shop has brought 16 new jobs to the local area, as well as providing an on the go experience for the Greggs lovers in Dalkeith.

We expect this isn’t going to be the last drive thru Greggs we see this side of the border.
