Locals can now get their Greggs fix at dinner time as well as during the day thanks to the chain's new updated opening hours.

The staple of high streets up and down the UK recently announced that some branches would now be opening later - and Bolton’s stores are among them.

Greggs at Deansgate, Bolton Interchange, Burnden Park and Middlebrook will all be open until 8.30pm.

A spokesman for Greggs said: “Picture the scene... you’ve finished a long hard day at work, lunchtime feels like a lifetime ago and cooking dinner is the last thing you want to do.

“No need to worry, as well as breakfast and lunch, Greggs now has dinnertime sorted too.”

On the menu, there’s customisable pizza with Chargrill Chicken, Mexican Chicken, Pepperoni, Red Onion, Jalapenos and Mixed Peppers, on top of the famous focaccia base.

Meal deal bundles or a range of sides including southern fried potato wedges, spicy BBQ chicken bites, southern fried chicken goujons or vegan southern fried chicken-free goujons are also available to take dinnertime up a notch.

The pizza meal deal bundle includes a boxed pizza, sharing wedges and a hot sweet.

A Greggs spokesman added: “If that wasn't enough to tickle your tastebuds, choose a dip of your choice including BBQ sauce, sweet chilli or mayo for your dipping pleasure.”

Regular daytime bakes, including sausage rolls and toasties, will also still be on the menu.

For dessert, the bakery will now offer hot yum yums, described as, “hot pieces of pillow-soft doughnut covered in a sticky sugar glaze and served with a tasty milk chocolate or salted caramel flavour dipping sauce".
