The last time I went to one, they refused to do me just a Brie baguette as “the Brie one must come with bacon in it”.

It was very odd.
 
I warned you Penelope! I tried to warn EVERYONE!

I voted "sumptuous treat" because that's my preconception when i buy one.

I always end up a little on the disappointed side, having purchased the WORLD'S THINNEST BAGUETTE

After my ORDEAL at Southampton station last weekend I can only vote one way
 
Never once made a purchase. Overpriced and it doesn’t even look fresh.

I very rarely have a train journey over an hour anyway so don’t really consider buying food. If I did I’d probably carry on a Tesco Meal Deal or something.

I’d say they’re on par - just some extra Scottish flavour added.

Re: Upper Crust - I will have it at the regional train station if there is literally no other option.
 
I LOVE it.

We don’t have the same sandwich culture as you seem to have in UK. Our shitty equivalents to your WS Smith and the likes only offer horrible packaged sandwiches and wraps. Upper Crust (which I’ve admittedly only seen in our Central station) has lots of tasty delicious appetizing ”fresh” sandwiches (none of which I can eat anymore because of gluten :angry: ).
 
I would never eat a sandwich as main thing for lunch or dinner though, to me it’s just a thing you’d eat if you’re in a hurry or in between meals. Or for breakfast.
 
Who knew that Upper Crust and The Pasty Shop are part of the same conglomerate (seen here at London’s sparklin’ Kings Cross)

GREGGS is arguably more iconic than KYLIE MINOGUE and it has the power to destroy entire CAREERS
Your faves COULD NEVAHHH
 
I'm always so heartened to see a Greggs in the wild in London after they were hunted to near extinction by Pret a Manger.

This happens to me a lot in Copenhagen for some reason when trying to order a veggie sandwich.
 
I’ve not been able to have a Greggs pasty since years and years ago, I got a chicken one and it was FILLED WITH WOOD CHIPS.

I was so young I just complained and got a refund. I probably could have got a lot more.
