Plans for new Greggs and drive-thru coffee shop at former Dewhirst Sunderland site

Paul Fazza Fairley:

So there’s gonna be 3 greggs in a very short distance. Here, pennywell shops and the broadway!!!

Jack Bowey:

Jonny Stanners we’re spoilt for choice on our break now. Either Greggs, Costa/Starbucks, KFC, burger van and that little takeaway shop

Hannah Pearson:

How many Greggs does Sunderland need!

Keith Burdis:

And they say obesity is rife in northeast all these big guns get the go ahead but local people trying to set up business get back heeled

Margaret Cooper:

And the Aldi on Castletown retail is closing because they have built the new one on the dewhirst site and they think people who don't have their own transport will travel to these other Aldis when they have supported the Castletown Aldi since it opened now the powers that be are shutting it, Well Thanks NOT

Rachel Craggs:

Are the still building the pub on the dewhurst site? X

Ray Knight:

Two food drive-thru's in space of say 80 yards. Only Sunderland, only Sunderland.

Diane Robinson:

I thought another pub was getting built

Michael Badger Mcallister:

As long as cheese and bacon wraps are on the menu then jobs a good UN

June Carr:

And they complain about obesity yet still open more food shops

Nigel-Nigekeys Graham:

It’s a good idea a greggs drive thru it will be popular and give people jobs

Brad Collinson:

Radgeys! Not in the Uk anymore and I’d kill for 3 greggs round the doors!

Steve O Sunderland:

The bairns won't have to go too far for dinner now man.

Sonia Fairley:

Be positive about this, it’s bringing jobs to the area
