Bake Mistake - ordered online.
These geniuses substituted a cheese and onion bake with a chicken bake. I'm vegetarian and didn't realise until I bit into it. Usually, I'm suspicious of this kind of thing, so tend to check by opening the pastry first, but I'm unwell at the moment so I wasn't as diligent as I usually am.

I've since learned that the bakes all have different patterns on the pastries so I know to check this going forward as I've always been dubious of getting the wrong filling. In around 30 years, I've never had a problem until now. I'm not sure if I will order from this particular branch again, but I'll still be a Greggs customer because they listened to my complaint and made me...

Today was the last straw as I stood in a queue of 4 people yet it took around 10 minutes to serve the person in front, nah nobody has time for that nonsense so I left. Even if the order was going to take that long the last time I checked there was more than one staff member emwber and more than one till, as I...
