Greggs has confirmed that a tried and tested cheesy delight will be added to its menu at 1,750 Greggs shops around the country – it comes after fans have been obsessed with the ‘velvety goodness’
Greggs has confirmed that a trial food item will officially become a permanent staple on its menu this summer – after customers obsessed over the “velvety goodness”. It had given them even more reason to visit the outlet (other than the tasty sausage rolls, doughnuts and coffee).
Bakery giant Greggs confirmed that its viral Mac and Cheese will be rolled out across its chains by the end of July. The treat was launched in 10 Manchester shops in November in 2024 as a trial – and was subsequently rolled out to 300 locations earlier this year. Now, over 1750 Greggs shops – of the 2,600 nationwide – will serve the Mac & Cheese. It comes after customers begged for it be a permanent menu staple.
The mouth-watering pasta box sent social media into a “meltdown”, states Greggs, following a series of viral videos. Food influencer Carmie Sellitto shared a video which generated over 1.5 million views, with Carmie telling fans: “Wow! I actually ate this so quickly I couldn’t take a second to breathe, I was so excited!”

Plus, @lifeofmanraj said it “looks really nice and tastes even better”. “It’s a perfect balance and cheesiness and creaminess,” he added. @vivien.max said she is “obsessed” with it.
Greggs also shared a video of the cheesy treat, which has now been watched over three million times. The official page said: “Baked fresh in shops every day, Greggs’ Mac & Cheese consists of delicious pasta smothered in a rich, creamy cheese sauce, topped with a soul-comforting blend of Cheddar and Red Leicester, a crunchy layer of ciabatta breadcrumbs and a sprinkle of parsley to form a divine golden crumb.”
In response, one foodie gushed: “I have been influenced, thank you.” And another said: “When I thought Greggs couldn’t get any better…”
