How to Order Platters & Advance Notice Recommendations
Because sandwich platters require substantial bakery prep and fresh morning bread allocation, shops cannot prepare multiple platters on demand at the counter during the lunchtime rush.
Participating shops typically recommend ordering by the preceding afternoon (or at least 24 hours in advance) via Greggs Click + Collect or by speaking directly with store staff. However, exact advance notice rules depend on individual shop kitchen capacity and collection timeslot demand.
For very large corporate orders exceeding 5 or 10 platters, giving 48 hours notice ensures the store receives sufficient morning bread and ingredient deliveries from the regional bakery.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you get gluten-free Greggs sandwich platters?
No. Greggs bakeries handle open wheat flour and do not manufacture gluten-free breads or sandwiches; catering platters cannot be prepared for coeliac requirements.
Are platters delivered or collection only?
Platters are primarily designed for Click + Collect from your local shop. In select metropolitan areas, large orders can be delivered via business accounts or corporate delivery aggregators.
