The wait is finally over! Coming straight from the streets of London, the iconic UK-based food and coffee chain Pret A Manger is opening its very first branch in Riyadh — and we’re here for it!
Mark your calendars: the grand opening is happening this Wednesday at 12 PM at Alolaya Towers 📍. Whether you’re a Pret regular from your travels or just hearing about them for the first time, this is your chance to experience what Londoners have been loving for years.
Pret is all about freshly made, ready-to-go goodness. Think: artisan sandwiches, hearty salads, warming soups, and of course, their legendary organic coffee — all made with high-quality ingredients. And if you’re on a health kick, they’ve got you covered with cold-pressed juices and wholesome snacks that taste as good as they look.
Riyadh’s food scene just got a serious upgrade, and to help you navigate Pret’s stacked menu, we’ve rounded up the must-try picks:
1. Organic Latte + Almond Croissant Combo
Start your day the Pret way: buttery almond croissant + smooth organic latte = the morning reset you didn’t know you needed.
2. Chef’s Special Hot Boxes
Pret’s rotating Chef’s Specials are lowkey fire. From Korean BBQ Chicken to Vegan Biryani Rice, these warm bowls hit the spot when you’re craving real comfort food on the go.
3. Classic Crayfish & Rocket Sandwich
A Pret OG. Fresh crayfish with a little spice from the rocket—it’s a London lunchtime icon.
4. Vegan Bang Bang Salad
Crunchy, zesty, peanut-sesame dressing. This salad is so much more than just greens—it’s got real flavor and texture.
5. Chocolate Chunk Cookie (served warm!)
Ask them to warm it up—trust. This gooey, chocolate-loaded cookie is a cult fave for a reason.
6. Smoothie Bar Faves – Berry Blast or Green Goodness
Refreshing, real fruit, no added sugar. The perfect pick-me-up.
