Overview

  • The Super Plates range comprises four salad options—from £9.95 for the vegan Butternut Mezze to £12.95 for the Miso Salmon—now available in 250 Pret shops across the UK.
  • Each salad weighs about 450g, nearly 60% larger than Pret’s existing offerings, and includes high-end ingredients such as roasted salmon, hand-massaged kale, black rice and quinoa.
  • Location-based pricing adjustments mean some airport and train station outlets charge more and add 20% VAT for in-store dining.
  • Online feedback has been mixed, with customers applauding the generous portions and flavour profiles but questioning whether a near-£13 salad aligns with typical £10 lunch budgets.
  • The launch follows Pret’s decision to end its dual-priced coffee subscription last month as the chain refocuses on delivering value across its food range.
