Greggs opens seventh Oxford shop on Cowley Road, creating 10 jobs

Published on

Greggs has opened a seventh outlet in Oxford, with the new bakery located in Tyndale House on Cowley Road.

The opening took place on Friday, November 6.

According to the company, the Cowley Road branch has generated 10 jobs for the local area.

Customers can purchase a range of bakery products, including food and drinks for breakfast and lunch, sweet treats, Fairtrade coffee and seasonal items.

The store occupies more than half of a unit that previously belonged to Superdrug.

Supermarket chain Superdrug closed the premises in July 2024, and the unit remained vacant until Greggs moved in.

Oxford already had six Greggs outlets, including branches at Templars Square shopping centre and Littlemore shopping centre.

Other locations in the city include Oxford Railway Station, Cornmarket Street, London Road in Headington and Dunnock Way in Greater Leys.

Gillian Long, Greggs retail operations director, said the new Oxford branch had created 10 employment opportunities while giving customers a convenient location in which to buy the company’s products.

The Cowley Road shop provides seating for eating in, takeaway facilities and a Click + Collect ordering service through the Greggs app.

Opening hours are from 6am to 7pm Monday through Saturday and from 7.30am to 5pm on Sundays.
