Pret A Manger debuts at Gloucester Quays

Pret A Manger has opened a new location at Gloucester Quays bringing the healthy food chain to the city for the first time. 

The new 1,841 sq ft eatery features seating for 85 people, Pret’s “signature” interior design with wooden accents and red tones, and will be managed by franchise partner, Dallas Holdings Limited. The menu includes a variety of handmade sandwiches, wraps, salads, baked goods, and snacks. 

The announcement follows the recent opening of Subway next to The Real Greek and Bill’s at Gloucester Quays.

Paul Carter, asset director at Peel Retail and Leisure, said: “The openings of Pret and Subway at Gloucester Quays, following the likes of Krispy Kreme and Bakers and Baristas, demonstrate our commitment to delivering real choice, supplementing the array of casual dining we already have. By introducing these options, we are removing the either/or decision for our customers, ensuring everyone that comes here has access to something that meets their needs and type of visit.”

Krishan Thakrar, co-founder and COO of Dallas Holdings Limited, added: “Creating 10 new jobs in the local community, We’re so excited to be open at Gloucester Quays, a vibrant location that brings together a unique mix of shopping, dining and community. Gloucester Quays’ dynamic atmosphere and strong connection with locals and visitors from over an hour away make it an ideal spot for Pret.”
