The Open Guide to London: the free London guide - Differences between Version 4 and Version 3 of Pret A Manger

Contents are identical

Don't go to Pret a Manger. They're bad and wrong, 1/3 owned by Maccy D's (not that I have anything against Maccy D's personally, they do what they say on the tin, but Pret claim to be good and wholesome and enviromentally friendly whilst having sold their soul) and their sandwiches are flavourless goop, over seasoned (ROCKET DOES NOT GO WITH EVERYTHING) and then forced into a cardboard box and chilled beyond redemption. They make their staff wear stupid bandanas round their necks and these irritating baseball caps and they over charge. And their sushi is crap; the veggie sushi at least is overchilled like everything else, and (currently) has gari in the red pepper maki, which is just wrong (although they do keep changing the recipe).

They do however do a vegan hummous and salad sandwich which is actually marked as vegan, and isn't bad once you let it warm up a little after taking it from the over-enthusiastic fridges. And they do nice "vegetable crisps" for not too much money.
