Greggs Christmas Menu 2026: Festive Bake, New Treats and Seasonal Drinks

Greggs has officially unwrapped its 2026 Christmas menu, with festive items arriving in shops nationwide from October 22, 2026. Led by the highly anticipated return of the iconic Festive Bake, this year's seasonal range introduces new bakery treats, seasonal coffees, and holiday iced drinks across the UK.

The Return of the Festive Bake

The Festive Bake returns to Greggs' hot counters with an improved recipe formulated to deliver rich, classic holiday flavours in a convenient handheld pastry. According to Greggs' official product specifications, the 2026 Festive Bake contains:

• Cooked chicken, smoked ham hock, and sweetcure bacon providing savory depth.
• Soft cheese blended with a creamy sage and cranberry sauce.
• Pork, sage and onion stuffing bringing traditional British Christmas roast flavours.
• Glazed puff pastry topped with a crunchy crumb topping.

Note on the Vegan Festive Bake: While Greggs has offered a plant-based alternative in previous holiday seasons, only the improved classic Festive Bake was confirmed in the initial October 22 seasonal menu announcements. Greggs has not confirmed the return of a Vegan Festive Bake for this launch.

Other Festive Savoury Items

Alongside the Festive Bake, seasonal savory options returning to select hot counters include festive holiday rolls and baguettes, offering warm combinations of roast poultry, bacon, stuffing, and cranberry sauce designed for quick-service takeaway dining.

New Sweet Treats

Greggs' 2026 Christmas sweet bakery collection features new recipes alongside seasonal favourites, as highlighted in official announcements from Greggs Festive Treats:

• Sweet Mince Pie Roll: A puff pastry roll packed with sweet mincemeat made of vine fruits, Bramley apples, and candied orange and lemon peel.
• White Chocolate Gingerbread Cookie: A festive spiced gingerbread cookie baked with white chocolate chunks and holiday decorative finishes.
