The Greggs bakery chain has opened its first drive-thru shop in Wales in Newport’s Maesglas district.

The new site will open from 6am to 7 pm Monday to Saturday and 8am to 5pm on Sundays.

Greggs said it is currently constructing a second Welsh drive-thru site on the outskirts of St Clears on the A40 which will be opening in early spring next year. In addition, a third drive-thru is under construction at Fabian Way in Swansea.

The company has retained Cooke & Arkwright to seek out new sites for the business in Wales.
