Caroline Cromar, Pret’s group director of food, said: “We’re thrilled to be opening our first ever university shop. This is an exciting new area for Pret and one that we hope will have a real impact on the students living and studying on campus.
“We know it can be difficult to prepare fresh and wholesome meals every day when living away from home, so we’re pleased we can be here to offer a little helping hand when required.
“Many of our menu items are packed full of nutrient rich ‘brain foods’ like grains, oily fish and avocados, and we’re of course never short of a cup of tea, coffee or a revitalising juice when needed. I imagine our hot food range, particularly the macaroni cheese, will be a big hit on campus too!”
Work begins on the first ever campus-based Pret in the coming weeks and will open in the Forum at the end of April.
