Overview

  • The four Super Plates—Miso Salmon, Butternut Mezze, Chipotle Chicken and Shawarma Chicken—are roughly 450g each, about 60% larger than Pret’s regular salads.
  • Prices span from £9.95 for lighter options up to £12.95 for the Miso Salmon bowl, reflecting costs of ingredients and in-shop preparation.
  • Social media users have questioned the value of paying up to £12.95 for a salad, with comments describing the pricing as excessive.
  • Pret’s spokespeople defend the range by citing premium ingredients, hand-massaged kale, extra prep time and a trend of hybrid workers treating themselves.
  • Salad sales at Pret have grown three times faster than sandwich sales, underscoring a shift toward healthier, more substantial on-the-go lunches.
