Pret a Manger
I had my first Pret a Manger meal last week and I must say I was pleasantly surprised! I had thought it was just another boring sandwich shop, but someone else was paying so I couldn't really refuse. I chose a sandwich from the well stocked fridges and ordered a coffee. My coffee was made fresh in less than two minutes behind the counter, the date the beans were roasted on was displayed too so I knew it was fresh! The selection of croissants on offer had something for everyone, and where one of the range was missing, 'Chef at work' signs were displayed - in fact they were re-stocked before I had left the shop. Considering the amount of customers coming in and out, I was surprised not only at the efficiency with which I was served, but also the manner of the member of staff. She greeted and served me as if she was really proud to work there. And you know what? She should be.
