Lockdown restrictions are easing and with every passing day it seems like we’re getting something back that was an essential part of our existence pre COVID-19 and when Thursday comes around it’s going to be the nation’s favourite past shop Greggs.

The bakery monolith have announced that they’ll be opening 800 stores on Thursday across the country with the other 1000 hoping to follow suit by the end of July. They’ll all have floor markings, protective clothing for staff, screens at counters and a reduced menu to protect kitchen staff and adhere to social distancing.
Obviously that reduced menu might have a few of you worried, so here’s what you’ll be able to get your hands on:

I mean I’m not really sure what they’re missing off the menu there, but I suppose some Greggs stan out there can correct me. As long as they’ve got their sausage rolls and chicken bakes – and their vegan options of course – then I’m happy. Probably visit one on Thursday you know.
The video actually does make it look like they’ve done a hell of a lot to make sure that their customers are going to be safe as well, so you gotta respect that too. Props.
