Greggs Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll: Calories, Price & What It Is
A Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll went live on Greggs' own menu in late October 2026 — salt and chilli seasoned chicken wrapped in puff pastry, sold alongside the existing Sausage Roll, plain Chicken Roll and Vegan Roll. Greggs has not published a price on its own site, so this guide pulls official calories and allergens directly from Greggs' product page and treats the price as a reported figure from a delivery listing, flagged as such rather than presented as confirmed in-store.
Key takeaways
- The Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll is a new seasoned flavour added to Greggs' existing Chicken Roll line in late October 2026 — not a brand-new "first" roll, which was the plain Chicken Roll launched back in April 2026.
- One Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll is 309 kcal — close to the plain Chicken Roll (305 kcal) and a little lighter than a Sausage Roll (347 kcal).
- At 309 kcal, the Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll sits almost exactly between the plain Chicken Roll (305 kcal) and the Vegan Roll (308 kcal), and is noticeably lighter than a Sausage Roll (347 kcal).
Direct Answer: What Is the Greggs Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll?
The Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll is salt and chilli seasoned chicken wrapped in layers of puff pastry, baked fresh in shop daily. Greggs' own description calls it "a welcome break from the Christmas chaos" and positions it alongside the Christmas 2026 menu, though it isn't a Christmas-flavoured item itself — it's a new flavour addition to Greggs' existing Chicken Roll line.
It is not, despite some social media framing, Greggs' first-ever chicken roll. That title belongs to the plain Chicken Roll, which launched nationwide on 9 April 2026 as "the newest addition to a trilogy of delicious flakey rolls" alongside the Sausage Roll and Vegan Roll. The Salt & Chilli version is a new seasoned variant of that same roll, not a separate first.
Greggs' own news post confirms it is available in shops nationwide and for delivery via Just Eat, Uber Eats, and Click + Collect as of the article's publication.
Calories & Nutrition
Figures below are Greggs' own typical values as sold, taken directly from the product's own page. A single roll weighs 99g.

Price & Availability
Greggs has not published a price on its own product page or news post — this is normal for Greggs, which rarely lists prices online given how much they vary by store type.
A Greggs branch listing on Uber Eats (Sale, Greater Manchester) shows the Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll at £1.70, with the calorie figure on that listing (309 kcal) matching Greggs' own official page exactly, which gives us some confidence in the figure even though delivery-app prices usually run higher than an in-store counter price. We have not independently observed an in-store or Click + Collect price for this item, so treat £1.70 as a reported delivery-channel price rather than a confirmed national one, and expect standard high-street, city and travel-hub pricing to vary the way it does across the rest of our catalogue.
It is available nationwide in shops, and for delivery via Just Eat and Uber Eats, and through Click + Collect, per Greggs' own announcement.

Is It a Limited Edition?
We could not find an official statement from Greggs confirming whether the Salt & Chilli Chicken Roll is a permanent addition or a limited-time flavour. Its own news post and product page both describe it as newly available without giving an end date, and we have not seen it listed as part of a dated seasonal range the way the Christmas or autumn menus are. We'll update this page if Greggs confirms either way or if the item disappears from its menu.
