Think a more eco-version of Pret with healthier, hardier, and slightly more exotic food options…read more The menu changes with the seasons... but right now you can find things like the "superfood salad" with edamame, broccoli, feta, and too many other ingredients to mention, or the halloumi, spinach and tomato toasted sandwich. They also sparked the "customize-your -own takeaway porridge" trend... with mix-ins like honey, cocoa nibs, and goji berries. Pod is brighter and a touch more organic-feeling than Pret. My major complaint with this branch, however, is that there is *no* decent place to sit down... Otherwise, the food is tasty... the packaging is compostable... and the ingredients are locally sourced - hurray!

For 3 people, it was plenty of food and it was priced fairly for sharing. The musakhan was definitely the highlight, the chicken is so tender it falls off the bone! Their back garden/conservatory seating is a nice set up. I would definitely love to come back here.

Just a few doors in from the…read morecorner and across the street from One entrance to the station and on the next block up and on the opposite side from the Hilton Paddington hotel. The interior is very clean and has a cool vibe-greenery from the hanging plants and lots of natural light. We got the makluba and the shishbarak and cleaned our plates. Everything from the eggplant to the lamb to the dumplings to the sauce was really perfect. The mango smoothie was also quite tasty. A little gruff on the service from the person who delivered our plates and while the "terrace" area was offered, unlike the guests that came in shortly after we declined that location, who were walked back and seated, we were simply handed our menus with a gesture towards the area. Still, the tasty food and convenient location were tops.

Another great Pret, this one is in an extremely busy area, between Victoria Station and Westminster…read moreCathedral. I've been here a number of times, usually to grab a quick breakfast before heading into the office nearby. The service is up to the usual Pret standards - fast, efficient and helpful. Even if the queue ("line") in American is long, it is never more than a very few minutes until you're served. Like most of their locations, there is not much room but if you are able to grab a table, that's a nice bonus. I've not been here long enough to try the Wi-Fi. One star off because the place is quite dark. I think that's because they only have the front windows and they are under the overhang of the building out front.

Great, knowledgeable, friendly staff and amazing food with attentive presentation. My chocolate chip cookie just melted in my mouth (and on my fingers).

I was very excited to see a restaurant which is markets itself as vegetarian/vegan. I was a little…read moredisappointed when they didn't have more vegan options when it came to baked goods. I only saw a pretzel. I did go into a few places and only came across one that had a vegan brownie. If you're already marketing to this group why not just make more vegan baked goods or foods in general? This seemes like a missed opportunity. It also seems odd that it's marketed as a veg place and then there is chicken sandwiches being sold here? I didn't understand this either. The food itself was fine, I got a vegan wrap (thanks for labeling everything) and it was a little small, I got hungry shortly after but it did taste good.

I'm a huge fan of Pret. The sandwiches are always fresh and they make a solid latte. I have never…read morehad a poor experience at a Pret and even in the afternoon when the pickings can be just a little slim, they're still just as good. Today's was a free range egg mayo with cress on brown bread. Muy bueno! This Pret is no exception to the rule. Coolers of sandwiches that were made today are ready for choosing with prices clearly marked. Crisps, fruit, yogurt, and a few options for sodas (even Pret's own brand!) there too. Coffee can take a minute when it's busy, but they are extremely efficient and you'll never be waiting for long. Unlike some other caffeine outlets (*cough* Starbucks *cough*), the coffee doesn't taste over roasted and I've never had a barista here make a mistake. maybe that's because they don't do eleventy billion different varieties of mochachinos and blended nonsense. It's coffee. It's good. Move on. This Pret is across the street from Angel station. It's a busy street, so do use the proper crossing unless you're a professional.

It about killed me not to get the pork belly sandwich. Notes: + Located on the outside of the Great Northern Hotel which is directly between St. Pancras and Kings Cross. + Simple and simple menu which likely means everything is good. + Excellent design in packaging and presentation. + Plenty of seating outside on the low walls that are part of the architecture between these two great transportation hubs (St. Pancras and Kings Cross)

For something other than the pre-packaged fast food available everywhere else in London, try Kiosk!…read more Kiosk is attached to our go-to London hotel, the Great Northern. It emulates the aim of the rest of the hotel, to offer something different and better than everything else in the area. In this aim, Kiosk succeeds. The guy working the shop window was extremely friendly and courteous, and seeing as it was nearly closing time, was kind enough to perhaps give me a little extra meat on my sammich--the salt beef. True to its name, it was salty, tasty, and tender. After a short chat with the friendly gentleman, we retired to our room, devoured our tasty, meaty conquests, and drifted into a happy sleep. Thanks, Kiosk!
