What our data shows about Pret A Manger

Pret is not really a restaurant chain in the sense the rest of this directory uses the word. Food is made in a kitchen at each shop each morning, there is no cooked-to-order hot menu, and unsold stock is given to charity at close. That is a fresh-food retail operation, and it only works where lunchtime footfall is extreme.

Which is why the estate is dense in central London and thin almost everywhere else, and why its American stores cluster in Manhattan.

All eight of Pret's products in our price index are drinks - Latte, americano, cappuccino, flat white. The food range changes almost completely between markets, because it is built to local taste and a local supply chain each morning.

Pret A Manger: the background

From a Modest Vision to a Global Table

In the heart of London, 1986, two university friends, Julian Metcalfe and Sinclair Beecham, sought to redefine the fast-food experience. Dissatisfied with the options available, they envisioned a place where fresh, natural food was prepared daily. This vision materialized at 75b Victoria Street, marking the inception of Pret A Manger. Their commitment to quality and simplicity resonated with the city's bustling populace, laying the foundation for a brand that would soon become synonymous with wholesome, ready-to-eat meals.

Crafting Meals with Purpose and Passion

At the core of Pret A Manger's culinary philosophy lies a dedication to freshness and authenticity. Each day, kitchens within or near every shop bustle with activity, preparing sandwiches, salads, and wraps from scratch using quality ingredients. The menu evolves with the seasons, ensuring that offerings like the Chicken Caesar Bacon Baguette and the Smoked Salmon Protein Bowl are not only delicious but also reflective of the freshest produce available. This approach ensures that every meal served is both nourishing and satisfying.

Building Communities One Meal at a Time

Beyond serving food, Pret A Manger has always prioritized community engagement. In 1995, this commitment was formalized with the establishment of The Pret Foundation, aiming to alleviate poverty, hunger, and homelessness. Unsold food items are donated daily to local charities, ensuring that surplus reaches those in need. Initiatives like the Rising Stars program offer employment opportunities to individuals facing barriers, fostering inclusivity and support within the workforce. Through these efforts, Pret A Manger continues to nurture connections, making a positive impact that extends well beyond its shop doors.
