I remember when I discovered Pret on a trip to London many years ago ... it was a great, affordable and satisfying grab and go sandwich. It has grown into a giant global franchise. Prices continued to grow over the years and I'm not exactly sure why I stopped eating their sandwiches and sweets. I revisited Pret recently when they launched "Pick Your Pair" for $9.99: half sandwich, salad and/or soup. The chicken bahn mi had flavor, but the largest item on the sandwich was thick cut cucumber (very minimal chicken, so I felt like I was really eating bread and cucumber) ... lentil soup good portion. Not sure there is much value. read more

Memories of Tokyo! My first encounter was during my stay in Japan working in the city and grabbing a quick bite for breakfast or lunch. Quickly, daily prepared sandwiches, yogurts, fruit cups, snacks and the like at a reasonable price. This particular Shop totally mirrors the ones in Tokyo and I highly recommend. read more

The coffee tastes great, but it's always room temperature, which is super disappointing. The croissants, on the other hand, are delicious! The soups are just okay--not bad, but nothing special. Wish the coffee was served hot! read more

Overly expensive. Quick with the coffees. I was able to sit down and enjoy my quick small meal. read more

The store manager (Manika?) was such a doll today! My app wasn't working, so she gave me a coffee on the house. I know this is something Pret does on a regular basis, but she was so genuinely sweet and happy. Plus, the coffee was piping hot and delicious. Their lunch line is bonkers, but they hold it down pretty great. Looks like the entire team rolls up their sleeves and gets through all customers as quickly as possible. They're in it to win it! I think this location is homier than others, maybe because of the narrow layout. There's a bunch of seats by the front of the store, including a long, communal table, and none in the back by the cashier. FYI, they only have two outlets and they don't work. Thanks for the friendly customer service, as always! read more

Coffee. Pret's new unlimited deal blows my mind. For $10 (standard) or $20 (premium), you can get as much coffee as you want. Every day. Every hour, if you really wanted ingest a month's worth of caffeine in a day. The standard plan gets you drip and iced, but the premium plan includes any coffee drink. I signed up for premium a few weeks ago and I think I've gotten my money back at least 3 or 4 times over. Even if the coffee was just "fine" it would be worth it. It's not as good as Starbucks, but the unlimited plan makes it well worth it. I presume Pret's ROI on this deal comes in the form of accompanying food purchases. I haven't made any yet...but the grab-and-go section almost makes it too easy. read more

Pret a Manger is so convenient when you need a quick, healthy snack and coffee. I wish Hawaii had a location here. During our visit to NY we visited several locations. I like their ginger and cayenne shots. Especially while traveling and feeling a little under the weather, these shots make me feel a little better. My espresso always tastes good and I receive satisfactory customer service. I didn't buy any food items this time but they have a selection of sandwiches, salads, soups and other items. The tables were clean and so were the restrooms. There was an outlet to plug into which is great. No complaints. And I would recommend coming here or to any Pret A Manger location. read more

Pret A Manger - 1-19-19 cayenne shot - Sandwiches Near Me - New York, New York

$3.25 for a can of Diet Coke might make it the most expensive can in the city. $19+ for soda and an ordinary sandwich and ordinary chips? I wouldn't mind paying that if the staff was being paid well, but they clearly are not since the cashiers are way too surly to have not been fired already unless they had real difficulty finding workers. If I was a fraction as mean as the workers are I would have been fired long ago. read more

The staff here is consistently so rude and make the experience there so unenjoyable, I feel like they get angry that you're even there. Tried to give them some grace but I have the subscription and I come basically everyday and it's always the same bad service. Cancelling my subscription after this month. read more

Pret a Manger is a brand which I am familiar with as they dominate London with 67% of their stores in the British capital with a good amount of branches elsewhere in the UK, so I was pretty pleased to see them expand across the pond to the United States - this branch is at the beginning of Park Avenue, NYC. The store is pretty spacious and has a good selection of fresh food and drinks, which they prepare in-store daily including a good gluten-free selection too - they even had Chipolte boxes here, some of them being gluten-free which I found confusing as they were only a few stores down themselves and not all Pret locations in NY have them. They did have a good selection of soups - I went for the Pumpkin Bisque which is one of their two seasonal soups right now as well as a Turkey Chill which sounded unappetising to me - unlike the UK they seem to do the same soups every-day rather than doing a soup of the day based on multiple visits to stores. My soup tasted quite good - I would say it was rather overpriced for a small soup as it didn't fill me up - it ended up costing $5.43 which would have got you a full "large" soup in the UK with a charitable donation, and change - so this does need a review. The staff seemed friendly enough and there was ample seating - the latter seems to be impossible to find in New York coffee shops so that's a bonus too. One of my favourite Pret's in the city in terms of selection and food quality to warrant four-stars! read more

Dominican woman staffer, has the nastiest attitude. Asked for a large cup of coffee and was told straight out, "no large cups" and I pointed behind her at large cups. Lol. What were those large cups for? Display? I get it. Dealing with customers everyday sucks. But hey, I hope she finds something that makes her happier. read more

I like Pret a Manger. I can't help it. Good selection of freshly made salads, sandwiches, and soups at a fair price for this area. This location close to my office opened up a few months ago and today was my first visit there. Some of my favs are the chicken balsamic sandwich with avocado, the chicken ceasar salad with some balsamic dressing, and the moroccan lentil soup. I like the bread you get with the soup too. Good quality ingredients, fresh and tasty. Portion sizes are just right so I don't feel like a total slug when I finish lunch and have to go back to work. This location is on the smaller side so there is a limited amount of seating at small circular tables. Very clean and bright. Friendly staff and counter people too. read more

I've heard a lot about this chain, esp in London. I've had it there and was surprised to see it in NYC. Stopped here with my boyfriend on our weekend getaway.

Just picked up a medium cappuccino. Got to the office to add my sugar and enjoy, and see a half full cup with no foam. If I didn't settle into work I'd go back to have it redone. Next time I'll be sure to open the cup before leaving, but still...shouldn't have too. read more

The ladys that work at this location are THE WORST. They give the nastiest attitude, don't listen, and hate being there. Representing a great coffee shop and having bad attitude ruins the business. And that's exactly what they did - I walk the extra blocks to 27th and Park so i dont have to deal with their nasty attitudes and terrible behavior. Wont come to this location again. read more

I loved PRET - treated myself today to a late and a croissant. I paid $9.99. I understand that prices go up - but now the value of what in get is not justifying this price. Last time J did this - sorry. I supported you during the pandemic - now you are in your own read more

Coffee is way overpriced. Employees don't understand customer service. They are more into social media displays that most could care less and do not want to see. I guess companies have not learned. People come to a BUSINESS for SERVICE AND A PRODUCT. THAT'S IT, NOT what people post online or for their personal beliefs and opinions on issues. read more

Love this location, right by the 6 train. Food is always so fresh, hot and/or cold, and the staff is very kind. Lots of traffic in here, shelves go empty quickly but are constantly being restocked. I will be coming back here many more times. The fresh juice is delicious! read more

Today in particular, the cashier was unable to take card because the system was down but aside from that, I am leaving this place with a huge smile and feeling healthy. I had a Mediterranean salad from the take away section and it was pretty much the best salad I ever had. Comprised of chick pea, pomegranate, beet hummus, field greens, and a sweet dressing, it was a meal straight out of avatar. Pret will always be pricy in my honest opinion, but today in particular, I felt like I got what I paid for. read more

i can take it or leave it when i comes to pret but i dont mind the murray hill pret a manger as the food is fresh and service is quick with a smile. stopped by on a friday morning before work to pick up coffee, blueberry muffins, breakfast crossiants for my slackers at the office . prices have gone up after the pandemic and during sleepy joes time in the white house but thats the price of working in manhattan. too bad they stop serving bagels as that was my morning treat with oatmeal. glad this particular pret is still around as a bunch have closed down for different reasons. you can sit in but seating have been made smaller to keep less folks from over crowding the space. 3 .5 stars on my yelp meter and lets do lunch on next visit . read more

Idk what took me so long to try Pret out being that they're down the block from my job. Everything was really clean & fast. I was in & out in less than 10 mins even though it was a little busy. I had the California Club sandwich. It was really good& fresh but just a little lacking in flavor. Can't wait to try the iced coffee & avocado toast for breakfast. It's in a really convenient location, right by the 6 on 33rd Street. It's nice & spacious enough to get work down/ chill out but either before or after the lunch rush as they tend to get a little packed. read more

Typical Pret. Small but well run. Clean. Pleasant staff. Consistent experience. Great oatmeal.

Food is alright. PROS: - food is organized. everything is labeled and shows what ingredients are in each sandwich - many options from sandwiches to soup - you can mix and match your half sandwiches. :::::::Chicken Avocado & Balsamic One of my favorites. If you love avocado and Chicken this is just for you!! Plus you can get this in a Small for only $3.59. Super cheap. :::::::Avocado Pine Nut Wrap Love the amount of avocado they put into this wrap! The pine nuts add flavor to the wrap. Delicious. Only downside was I kinda wanted some meat in it as well. I like to have a little meat in my wraps. CONS: :::::::Spicy Shrimp & Cilantro Wrap: Overrated - I didn't really like the wrap - I should have known it'd be a turn off since it contained red peppers - I definitely won't be getting this again. What made me get it was because of my overly fond love of shrimp. The Spicy part was ehh ok. - Food is a little overpriced. e.g. Wraps and Sandwiches are like $7 each but its like that in midtown. Note: It's a good place to come once in a while for lunch just not everyday. read more

Always passed by this place en route to work but didn't stop by until recently. The breakfast baguettes, oh my! So fresh and so good. I've had the egg/bacon with pesto baguette for breakfast. The turkey/ Parmesan sandwich and the pop corn. Can't go wrong really with their sandwiches. Prices were fair for the area. Staff is very friendly and the seating area clean and welcoming. read more

This was my favorite breakfast spot on my walk to work. They were fast and efficient, and their food was always fresh. I really enjoyed their oatmeal and turmeric latte. If I was feeling sassy, I would also grab one of their buttery, flaky croissants. Despite how busy it is on a work day, the staff is always friendly and helpful if you ask. I would also recommend their protein cups or salads for lunch. They are the perfect amount of food and calories for a person trying to eat better and healthier. This location is clean, but a little smaller than most other locations as far as I can tell. This can make navigating during rush hour somewhat challenging, but it's definitely worse battling the crowds to get a decent bit of food! I would recommend this location to anyone looking for something that isn't Starbucks, has decent coffee, and a great selection of breakfast and lunch items. read more

This Pret location is probably the smallest in NYC, however it still delivers (at least for me). I work within a few meters from here, been coming here regularly since it had opened. I love the candied almonds (a bit pricey but relinquishes my sweet cravings), the croissants are to DIE for (I had one every morning this past winter and gained 15 lbs -also I just got married last year so give me a break :) the blueberry muffin is wonderfully moist and DELICIOUS and the chocolate cookies (esp when they come out fresh from the oven) is heavenly! I usually get the Chicken Avacado salad, although its really a hit or miss these days with the quantity of chicken they give you. I said QUANTITY, not QUALITY. The quality has always been great. A few months ago (earlier this year) they had increased the price for all salads and had been serving them in slightly larger bowls and I'm telling you- they only increased the portion sizes of the greens (not anything else). The pieces of chicken in the bowls are really scant. And its not consistent- each salad bowl has a diff amt of chicken- some have scraps, and some have even less than that. There are def less cherry tomatoes as well. The average I get is 3-4 in a bowl. Haha Im getting really down to the nitty gritty- but trust me you start to notice these little things if you eat the same thing everyday! Please Pret, increase the chicken portions slightly in the salads and please make every bowl consistent and I will post an updated review! Thank you! read more

I love the lay out and look , Coffee is 5 star . Service and attitude are awful. No customer experience at the store level . Some really smart , capable corporate restaurant people got together and had a really good idea. They poured a ton of money into it , but no one remembered to train the staff? Food is great looking , pedestrian tasting. Sandwich is extremely inconsistent, condiments are typically a spit in center of sandwich . No love in the food. The service truly kills it for me . This location is large and comfortable. read more

The staff here is sweet and service is pretty quick. Pret's coffee is yummy, an iced americano totally hits the spot. There is apparently a new Pret app and a rewards program too, so you can earn points toward free coffee, treats and lunch fare. If you frequent Pret, download it! There have been a few times in the afternoon where they have "run out of half and half" for the coffee--huh? How do you run out? Can't you go to one of the 14 drug stores within 0.1 miles and buy some? So that's a little weird and annoying. Overall super convenient location for a quick drink or bite. read more

I take my Yelp duchies seriously. This Pret A Manager falls within my domain for all the right reasons. The location is meticulously tidy & well lit. There are tables and window-facing stools - you can munch on lunch while taking in the Park Avenue foot traffic. The staff here is friendlier than your usual sandwich shop crew. One afternoon the guys working here admired my Manila Luzon t-shirt so much that my soup order was gratis. Werq! The pastries, coffee, and sandwiches always taste fresh. The falafel, red pepper wrap nicely marries flavor with gooey cheese. The Moroccan lentil soup is quite delicious, but bite carefully - sometimes it has solid bits. If you're messy like me, be sure to ask the cashier for extra napkins. They aren't stocked with the utensils stationed by the entrance. read more

My favorite place in the whole wide whole. I eat at Pret all the time at many locations. This is the freshest food you can find in the city. The price is well worth it, everything is tasty. The soups are fresh and tasty as well. I love this place and I always look forward to go going back. I recommend this place to everyone, we should all eat this healthy. A+ for food and service, the workers are extremely friendly! read more

Pret A Manger - Good selection - Sandwiches Near Me - New York, New York

I love coming for breakfast or quick snack. Their quality is amazing and proportions are just right for me. When I picked up a quick breakfast, a croissant and small chai latte was under $6!!!!! Comon' you can't even get a cup of joe at Starbucks for this price. Although, their chai latte isn't very good, watery and weak chai tea. The buttery croissant is crazy good! I saw they added a line of sparkling juices and I can't wait to try it! read more

Rarely do my wishes come true. But one day I was sitting at my desk, lamenting the poor lunchtime choices in my area, when I said "you know what I wish we had around here, one of those Pret a Manger places. I like their sandwiches." As if by magic, the good people at Pret began constructing one in my building the very next day. And today it has opened. A true story. You've probably been in a Pret before. It's the standard set up; a dairy case filled with freshly-made, better-than-average, pre-packaged sandwiches and salads, all ready to eat (hence the name); pay at the counter, where they have soup. Desserts and a few beverages too. Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Great location and super friendly staff. They are good at keeping stock of all the sandwiches and salads during the lunch rush. Came here today and was even able to get one of the booth tables all to myself while I had time to kill. I had the roast been 1/2 and a shrimp corn chowder, pretty good, the soup was super watery and I wouldnt classify it as a chowder but I guess thats what makes it less in calories. My only gripe is that you need a network code at the bottom of the reciept to access the wifi. I wasnt given a receipt ...and by the time I realized this I was already a 1/3 done eating. Oh well I guess for the future I will know to ASK for my receipt instead of them just throwing it away. read more

Prey is my go to lunch spot when I want something fast. In the am your best bet is to grab a blueberry muffin and a yogurt. Best lunchtime fix is the tomato feta soup and a small sandwich. The staff in prey can turnover pretty quickly however they are always courteous and super efficient. The line is always zooming even if it has a long one at 845 am. read more

I go to this pret location regularly Everything I've had so far is the best! And great just for quick coffee or tea. Highlights: Moroccan lentil Mac and cheese (yes I know Mac and cheese you would have never guessed) Mediterranean baguette Lobster salad Tomato and cheese croissant for breakfast Staff is friendly. They keep the lines moving and shelves stocked! I love how environmentally conscious pret is and that they use fresh ingredients. Best part is they donate leftover food to the hungry!!! read more
