I love this store. The ENTIRE staff is great and the manager is fabulous. I come here often as I work across the street and I have NEVER had a bad experience here. Which to me speaks volumes because we all have our horror stories of fast food service. The service is outstanding, the food is simple, healthy and good.
Only thing….STOP PLAYING TAYLOR SWIFT EVERY LUNCH TIME lol…
Pret offers a range of organic eats at reasonable prices. Hard to find in a fast-gentrifying city.
I got a sandwich, yogurt with granola, and organic iced coffee. Yogurt is vegetarian. No gelatin, thankfully. Very hard to find. Unfortunately, no decaf organic coffee.
Someone dropped cans by me and everyone awkwardly stared at me. I wasn't involved in dropping them so that was odd.
They've still got great offerings.
They seem like a respectable business, donating unsold food to the homeless each night.
The Starbucks across the street was closed on Presidents' Day, so I went here for my mid-afternoon coffee fix. Because I've been brainwashed by Starbucks, I mistakenly ordered a "tall" here (wanting the smallest of the three conventional sizes). The barista prepared the larger size. I apologized for my error and asked for a smaller one, and she just let me keep the larger ones and charged me the price for a small. That's great service. This Pret will get my business.
Really clean and excellent customer service for soup, salads, and sandwiches. She offered me a free coffee. Yes, please.
Breakfast, lunch, snacks and more snacks… Lately, for me, it's been all about Pret's uncommon ability for satisfying those four most important meals of the day.
OK…. so its practically cookie cutter, part-of-a-food-chain ambience can be something of a setback for my current lunch spot crush lasting more than a few days. But with fresh food ALWAYS, fast and super efficient customer service, a clean and pristine environment, and affordable-for-Soho lunch options, Pret has staying power and forever returning power too.
Before my job moved to the less practical Holland tunnel area from Midtown, Pret was reliable and conveniently located downstairs from the office. In fact, I remember it being on my top 10 list of things I would miss most about moving offices.
Happy that Pret has maintained its amazingness, and glad that there are so many more locations.
I do like the sandwiches here but I have always found the meats to be on the dry side. The turkey with swiss and cranberry sauce on a soft, fresh potato roll was delish but the turkey could have been less dry. The roast beef was flavorful but very tough; however, the ham and cheese was fantastic and the mustard spread had just the right amount of spiciness. The caprese sandwich was also fantastic with plenty of basil and fresh, thick slices of mozzarella and beefsteak tomatoes. They definitely give you more fillings than Gigi or the Food Exchange and the sandwiches themselves are more flavorful. Overall, a good catering option in NYC with higher quality sandwiches.
Hip location – check.
Cool packaging – check.
Fast and cheap – check.
Made a quick stop into the Pret A Manger on Hudson to see what all the hype is about and grabbed the ham and egg sandwich and the pesto chicken with avocado sandwich to take with me on the plane.
Big mistake on the pesto chicken selection. These guys weren't kidding about how fresh their product is. These were definitely meant to be eaten immediately. The avocado on my sandwich was already starting to turn an unappetizing brown.
I loved the inviting space and warm lighting. Would definitely go here again.
Never been to a PAM before.
Self serve coffee BEFORE you pay for it…? I guess the honor system is alive and well here. Plenty of organic and healthy options for food. Open eating space but limited amount of seating. I can see a lot fighting over seats during lunch. Only had their coffee and it was tasty. Prices are below what I expected to pay in NYC. A stones throw away from the Passport Office. Will return to try their food options.
