your favourite pret sandwich/baguette/hot wrap

where's the beef, Pret

My local one only has a tiny tiny selection of these. I was happy until I went to the website and realised the smorgasboard of delights I was missing out on.
NB don't have the miso soup.

I really miss Pret! I only just realised

We have this thing here that's like it. but not very good. it also sells magazines and bathroom items

best thing about Pret is still the Choc Bar

WANT

Dry-Cured Ham & Eggs Bloomer
All Day Breakfast
Crayfish and Rocket if i wanna be healthy
or Posh Cheddar & Pickle Artisan Baguette but I haven't seen one in ages

unless it's christmas... in which case christmas sarnie every day.

the US menu: http://www.pret.com/us/menu/ - does it have less mayo?

tho it's incomplete - maybe they're including just the US-only items

i like the hummus and bell pepper sandwich, but our peppers aren't roasted

i like the tuna baguette too, but there's something just slightly off about their tuna - it's too mashed-up or something

also they put black pepper in it

the blueberry/granola yogurt pot is awesome

I'm sort of amazed anyone goes to Pret in NEW YORK of all places.

Swedish Meatball Ragu Hot Wrap

This is king of Pret products.

The margherita wrap (discontinued - R.I.P.) was even better. So for this poll, another vote for the Swedish Meatballs.

Pret has ludicrous hours, though; they all seem to close at 6pm.

Posh Cheddar & Pickle Artisan Baguette

^^^^^this

yep. when that's a bit heavy i've gone for:

Summer Chicken & Mango
Free-Range Egg Mayo & Roasted Tomato Breakfast Baguette (started copying this one at home, never thought to use roasteds b4)
Classic Super Club
and the cheapo egg on rye which i havent seen for a bit.

also NO £1.80 HAM & CHEESE CROISSANT NO CREDIBILITY

I'm sort of amazed anyone goes to Pret in NEW YORK of all places.

it's good food (and my semi-local is a very nice environment, including good music). i go out of my way to eat there.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

I go to Pret in NY although I am always disappointed by how few sandwich types they have comparatively. They are good if you want a sandwich that is light compared to the huge monster meat sandwiches you find everywhere else in NY. Plus you can get a half sandwich now.

NO £1.80 HAM & CHEESE CROISSANT NO CREDIBILITY

I'm a fan of the £1.80 mozzarella & tomato croissant.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Italian Prosciutto Artisan Baguette

I can now confirm this beats every other Pret sandwich hands down.

all joking aside pret wraps are straight disgusting

I think I've had something like six New York Delis from Pret in the past three weeks.

fuckin a

Still never eaten a Pret sandwich even though I LOVE SANDWICHES!!!

Ohsnap.jpg

I've actually just finished one. Pretty great, but not up there with the proscuitto one.

Beef & Stilton is OK, bit dry (oh the ironing) maybe

SOOP! SOOP!

THAT THAI CHICKEN SOOP!!

FOR ME!!!

Graduated to Benugos. No turning back.

what do you get from Benugo? i only cop curried chicken with mango chutney and rocket in a toasted flatbread from there now

^^^the kind of loose&free attitude with money that got this country in the state it's in today.

Regressed to Gregg's, Boots Meal Deal, and home-made peanut butter and lettuce.

don't have a benugo's in 25mi of here.

Yo, kids who work in London's fashionable Central Eastern media districts: what's the deal with Fuzzy's Grub? Worth bothering with?

They do a roast dinner in a sammich, about twice the size of a Pret baguette but it costs a fiver. They can even put mash and Yorkshire puddings in it, but that's a bit filthy.

It's a bit Harvester carvery, if that floats your boat.

Anyone else been in the Pret on Great Eastern Street? It's massive and has loads of tables but there's only ever about three types of sandwich.

I think I am going for Fuzzy's Grub this lunchtime.

haha ouch fair point

Beef & Stilton sandwich is good (they do it once every 4-6 weeks i think?) but always want some worcester sauce on it

this week it's the Ham & Swiss cheese again: nice but too much mayo/pickle mess as per

OMG the blueberry muffins are fantastic. Just had one and it was warm and had gooey sauce in the middle.

gooey sauce

I have just discovered on my second Pret muffin that this is, in fact, what most people would call "jam".

Have they stopped doing the chicken & avocado salad? This is not good :(
Super duper health hummous salad is a-ok though, and I say this as a carnivorous type.

pleasing i guess

their tuna sandwiches will still suck tho

Never mind all that.

It's all about the Thai chicken soup!!!

Topside of beef is pretty good.

but would it kill them to include some salad?

Has anyone tried their cheese and onion flavoured popcorn yet?

anyone tried the still water infused with iced tea and peach. fucking love it.

Search: the BBQ pork hot wrap. Think it might be a little smaller than the others but it is packed full of meat.

Crayfish thai noodle is good and surprisingly spicy for a sandwich shop chain...I agree with the comment upthread that their staff are usually good and fast at processing queues.

I ate so much Pret in my 20s I can hardly bear it now.

Chef's special, Vietnamese baguette. With chicken. 2/10, must try harder (concept that is, I did not purchase).

there's none of this Pret nonsense oop ere in Ull but i gotta give a shout to Gregg's Mexican Bandit baguette, that is one delicious and satisfying sandwich.

When I used to go, it would be for the Malaysian chicken soup or a wrap.

They've introduced a new bacon sandwich thingy, which must be good because it's always sold out whenever I get there

this fucking sucks in my opinion, tasted like pork stew in a wrap, not pulled pork.

nope... it's sort of cold and has no ketchup on it, it is shite.

do like pret's soups tho.

the smoked salmon sandwich is the best thing in there, seriously thick wedges of the stuff, delicious, and relatively good for you.

Never been, but I can't see the name without thinking of 1994 film Pret a Porter.

The sandwiches are served to customers by naked models walking up and down a runway.

Only joking.

Eat now offering a chicken banh mi too. Madness.

pret's is gone, i never had it. pret's avocado and crayfish salad is good, had today for the first time.

we have a diff menu over here but pret is pretty dope

Slow Roasted Beef, Arugula & Parmesan

this sandwich is fantastic

Eat now offering a chicken banh mi too. Madness.

This changes everything

Oh wait, it would if they weren't mainly only in London :(

think the austere 'jambon beurre' buttered stonebake w/ ham and cornichons is pretty much indisputably the best thing they do, and it's only £2.50

In fact I am ready to award the all-time gong to their new chicken and crushed pea baguette, it is sensational

Anyone else been in the Pret on Great Eastern Street? It's massive and has loads of tables but there's only ever about three types of sandwich

I’ve noticed a really poor range in a few other Prets as well. I think that as you get closer you get to Pret HQ (in Victoria), they tend to have a better selection.

The basic tomato and brie baguette is secretly the best Pret sandwich.

looks like i'm a scab in the great culture war

They stopped selling this (in the three branches I've checked) two weeks ago! Massive betrayal.

I had severe stomach cramps and badly upset digestion from a brie and tomato baguette from Pret twice last month, and have now abandoned buying it. I wonder if they've had complaints.

They need to make sure they keep those baguettes at the right temperature.

seems bad
