Get ready for a fresh twist at Pret A Manger! The beloved sandwich and coffee chain is gearing up to shake up lunchtimes with a new meal deal trial starting soon. From October to December 2025, Pret will roll out special combos at different prices to see what you fancy most. Whether you’re in the mood for a croissant and a drink or a satisfying sandwich, drink, and crisps, Pret aims to offer great value to boost its lunchtime trade.
Why the change? Pret’s CEO, Pano Christou, says it’s all about delivering fantastic value while steering the brand towards sustainable profits. This move comes as the chain works to bounce back from financial hurdles, including a hefty pre-tax loss last year.
With supermarkets like Tesco recently hiking up their meal deal prices, Pret’s new strategy might just be what the lunchtime crowd needs. Despite the challenges, Pret continues to expand, eyeing more shops across the UK and the US, especially around buzzing city centres and travel hubs.
Pano Christou has big dreams, hinting at doubling the UK store count from 500 to between 1,000 and 1,500 locations. So, whether you’re rushing through a busy day or just need a midday pick-me-up, keep an eye out for Pret’s delicious deals this autumn and winter!
