Useful link between Charing Cross and Embankment
Villiers Street is the tiny street between Charing Cross and Embankment, and Pret a Manger is towards the bottom (river) end of this street. It’s always packed, but it’s also always full of lovely food, and helpful staff. I do find Pret the best sandwich shop, as their food is great, and their coffee is good (if not quite as good as Caffe Nero).
I really like the Mocca from Prets - I have visited A LOT of Pret outlets (almost every outlet in London!) and sadly I can state with some confidence that what makes a cup of nectar is the individual staff member, rather than the individual store. Pret is always worth a visit, though!
