A BAKERY chain is preparing to open a new site in a city centre street.

The store in Queen’s Road, Brighton, will open on Friday.

Greggs told The Argus in September that a new store was planned for the city and would be open by the end of the year.

But, at the time, the company refused to give an exact location of its latest site.

A Greggs spokesman said: “We are pleased to confirm that we have plans to open a new shop in Brighton later this year and will have more information about exactly where and when in the near future.”

But the signage above the store has now been added and a poster in the window tells people the opening date, along with the phrase, “you can almost taste it”.

The site is a short walk from Brighton Railway Station.
