About This Dish
The Greggs Simply Creamy Porridge costs £1.65 for a ready to eat pot carrying 249 calories. No syrup, no fruit, just oats done properly creamy, which turns out to be the version plenty of people actually want at 7am.
The pot arrives warm and genuinely creamy rather than wallpaper paste adjacent, with a texture that suggests someone at Greggs eats porridge themselves. Plain is the point: it takes a commuter through to lunch without sugar theatrics, and porridge remains the cheapest warm breakfast the counter sells.
The flavoured pair, Golden Syrup at £1.65 and Apple and Cinnamon at £1.65, cover sweeter tastes, and the Breakfast Porridge Meal Deal bundles any pot with a hot drink. The breakfast menu lists all three with live prices.
