My favorite thing about NYC is that there are so many places to grab a cup of joe and sit for a long time. Pret is an awesome place to do it. The coffee is great, there are lots of food options, and soooo much seating. The bathroom is nice and clean too! I enjoyed spending a few hours here with my sister while we people-watched.

Cannot complain about the food at all. The cashiers have a habit of being rude. It just happened for the third time. Asked for a tray and a receipt, didn’t get either one or napkins. Did get a silent and deadly attitude. So many friendlier options. I’m out! My co-workers just said they have been treated the same way at this pret too.

I really enjoy Pret. I frequent the location near my office on Madison Ave and 39th St in Manhattan. The food is made daily so it is always fresh. They generally have both a vegan and vegetarian selection. All of their meals have calories listed. The food selection is a great lunch choice and it includes sandwiches and wraps — both hot and cold, soups, salad, hot meals, mini pots of food, yogurts, and juices. The coffee is pretty decent too. They also serve breakfast items. Sweets are on the menu too, including little bites — brownie or nuts — which make for a really nice crave buster. Sometimes if I go in for just coffee and its not crowded they will give me free coffee. Also — it always smells like fresh baked cookies or croissants! Oh and its largely organic. The best of all is that Pret donates left over food to charity. They are also a non for profit organization that supports sustainable solutions to alleviate hunger and homelessness in the US. Minor issue is that it is on the more expensive side for this type of «fast food».

I’m surprised that I haven’t gone here more often, as it is close to my office. Generally, I would give Pret 3 – 3 ½ stars. I’m going to bump this one up to 4, because it is spacious and clean, and the staff here are very nice(not that the staff at other Pret stores aren’t nice). And, yes, I enjoyed the food. The premade sandwiches here are very good. I really liked the mint pea soup that they sold over the summer. Recently, they started selling burritos. They aren’t bad. Today I tried their cucumber seltzer. On my first sip, I thought«HUH?» But it grew on me, and in the end I liked it. All-in-all, I have had enjoyable lunches here and plan to visit more often in the future.

Very clean and big. I’m actually surprised how much space this place has, but the southwestern breakfast wrap was delicious and the salted pecan peanut butter cookie was heaven on earth. However, I wish there was a bit more selection, but other than that it is a very friendly and nice environment.

At least 3 times, I’ve seen sandwiches with avocado that has gone brown. Unfortunately, I bought one once and since I didn’t realize until I got back to work, I didn’t have time to return it. The other day I again noticed that the avocado in the balsamic chicken sandwiches was brown. I showed it to the cashier and he showed it to another worker who said, «Yes, we had to send back all of the avocado this morning because it was bad.» I responded with, «Then you shouldn’t be selling these,» and walked out. The staff is friendly but apparently has no common sense.

I really like this store. Staff was friendly and fast. Ordered a latte and it was pretty good. Smooth. Good espresso flavor. I also got a 5 grain oatmeal that had oats, quinoa, amaranth, flaxseed and chia seed. They offered to add toppings but I figured I would try it on its own. And it definitely didn’t need anything. It was already sweetened with something to calm to quinoa taste. likely cane sugar. I’m less a fan of the sugar taste, but is was subtle. 99% of people would probably prefer it sweetened. Another good point, price was reasonable. I think my latte and oatmeal was around $ 7. So it is comparable to starbucks. I have been going to some of the side cafes the last couple mornings and spending $ 8 o $ 9 and the latte’s haven’t been good. So for same price and decent food, this place is a win.

I’ve been to several of their outlets in Manhattan but I would usually just have their dark roast coffee, and would just spend my time enjoying my hot beverage while making phone calls. This time I also asked for a scone(forgot which kind, but I noticed, err, smelled that it’s fresh-ly baked so I decided to give it a try). What I like about this place is it’s being consistently neat. Even the bathroom is neat, which is impressive for me. The coffee’s really strong & good(I always take mine black!). I can only wish they’ll open until 11pm but I don’t think they serve the same market as that of Starbucks, so that won’t happen. Also, they’re more expensive(for certain food items, really).

I wouldn’t even give 1 star, the manger Justin Garcia was the rudest person I’ve ever encountered in NyC, all the self serve coffees where empty, when asking for more coffee I was told it’s coming in the rudest tone Possible, another client 10min later asked the same question and was responded too in the exact same way. I’m sorry but I will no longer purchase anything from this store

Always my favorite place in midtown to stop by for a coffee and food. It has friendly staffs. The store is spacious and cozy with comfortable booths, chairs and clean restroom. It’s usually quite empty in the evening. It fits for a book or long time chat with friends The banana honey yogurt is so delicious. I like their Chai latte used real chai tea bag instead of Chai syrup like that in Starbucks..

Aside from their beverages being overpriced, I’m disgusted at the worker’s attitudes. They don’t give you good service, they’re rude, and they obviously don’t care for the customers. I was there on Monday 7÷7÷14 at 5:20pm just so you can correct the problem. Good customer service goes a long way!

Always a friendly staff. Always fresh food. I do wish they had sandwiches to order & not pre packaged. I am also not a fan of them discontinuing their nuts & bolts! That was a great & healthy staple!

Friendly, clean, fresh and mindful of the quality of the food and a conscience re the environment… Sandwiches are so good, but the offer l/2 sandwich too which I got because I wanted soup. The chicken soup was so good(not as good as my mother’s but next to it) They offer you bread with it. They do keep the place clean and they donate all uneaten foods to the homeless. My dentist is near by so I’ll continue to go there. It’s a very pleasant experience. Something negative: let’s see. They ran out of butter for my roll. The end. No other complaints I don’t know what to click for price… dep on what you get. Soup $ 4.99

This Pret location just opened up about a month ago, and so far so good! Food is always fresh, they definitely adhere to the«make it today, gone today» line they promote. I usually like to mix and match some of their healthier sandwich options(balsamic chicken, and coronated chicken on 9 grain bread). Once in a while I’ll splurge on a soup(mediterranean lentil for the win)!! Glad they added another fresh lunch option in this area.

Pret offers good coffee and sandwiches. I love their berakfast baguetts of egg salad and roasted tomato. Their roast beef with caramelized onion is great(if you aren’t counting calories). Overall consitently good.

This Pret A Manger sits in Midtown East where in the passage of my travels, hunger pangs bestow upon me for lunch. As my lack thereof work grew longer and longer, how I was going to pay my bills and eat became a matter of great concernment. Ergo, I curated the cheapest sandwich available by carefully crafting my selection– Parmesan, Tomato & Aioli at $ 3.99. It was dry and lack any Parmesan taste and the Aioli sauce was nonexistent for the Provencal traditional sauce made of garlic, olive oil were all omitted. MEH! It was not worth the try regardless of money. Big fat MEH! Staff is cordial and nothing more than to serve patrons like robots in a monotone rhythmic motion. Free WiFi is available with a password attainable on a sales receipt upon request.

Pret-a-Manger serves fresh, tasty items perfect for lunch or dinner. They also serve breakfast. Their slogan is «Made Today, Gone Today» and I think you can taste the freshness in their sandwiches and other goods. They serve a lot of prepackaged sandwiches, chips and some desserts. I got a beef baguette, which had roasted beef, arugula, Parmesan and mayo totaling to $ 6.52, including tax. The sandwich was really good. It was a nice size and I felt healthy eating it. The only problem I had with it was all the mayo on it, which took away from the rest of the ingredients but whatever, I wouldn’t mind sampling all of Pret-a-Manger’s food even if it had too much mayo. Also, if you decide to eat in the establishment you can look at all of the creative, fun posters on the walls, which advertise the freshness of their products. The pictures show different foods being shaped into other items, like they managed to make cabbage leaves and a string bean look like a butterfly. The pictures are so cute and pretty!

Our 1st meal in NY was at Pret-a-Manger. It was too early to check into our hotel, so while my sister and I were wandering the streets to kill time, we came across this chain. The restaurant is bright & clean. Against the wall are refrigerated cases stocked with pre-made grab ‘n go sandwiches & wraps, as well as yogurt parfaits called yogurt pots. They also have freshly baked croissants, pastries & bagels. Service was great! Everyone was very friendly and since we took so long browsing at all the options, they approached us to offer assistance. When they realized the wrap my sister wanted was out of stock, they immediately made one up for her.(On a different day we had stopped by the location inside 30 Rockefeller and they definitely were not as friendly or attentative.) My sister had the Avocado Pine Nut Wrap(avocado, toasted pine nuts, Mediterranean dressing, Parmesan, basil, tomato, cucumber, spinach, Pret’s seasoning, tortilla wrap) which I tried a bite even though I typically don’t care for wraps. It was delicious and of course very fresh since they just made it, and it was obvious only quality all natural ingredients were used. I had the Blueberry & Yogurt Pot(Ronnybrook lowfat yogurt, fresh blueberries, granola) and although it wasn’t something I couldn’t of found elsewhere, the clean environment and friendly service made it so much tastier. I was craving it the whole week I was in NY. On the pricier side but to be expected for fresh, all natural food. I definitely love all the healthy food options Pret offers and sure hope they consider expanding into California.
