First time I went to Pret a Manger, I ordered Sushi. But the taste was nothing special. But the second time I went to Pret a Manger, I ordered Holsin Duck Salad wrap as my lunch. The taste was very good. Since then, it became my favorite :) :)
I mean, just go here. It's cheap, it's good, it's healthy, it's for everyone (vegetarian and vegan welcome ). Staff is happy and kind. The only problem I can think of is that it's hard to find a free table (you can take your order to go !)
A wrap is about 4.5£
Food quality is so great. Avocado and eggs mayonnaise sandwich is really fresh and rich.
Staffa all are very friendly.
The highlight was Licija, the manager. This lady went beyond her customer service duties. I asked her if there were any vegan croissants, not only she responded in a friendly and polite manner, but she took a handbook with a list of all the ingredients and allergen included in menu, she showed me which ones were vegan and after taking a chocolate cookie she positively surprised me saying "it's on the house because is the first time you try it".
I had a vegan falafel and beetroot salad and a vegan avocado and olive sandwich as well. All very tasty.
Great friendly staff. Delicious chai.
Just wish the place was a little bigger as it feels awkward having to stand next to people eating when waiting for a drink.
Their mix of great food (hot and cold) and coffees, I always know I'm getting something good with this store. I'd say try their mint hot chocolate as it's perfect!
I love the place but the one thing I wish was that there was more seating, because it's such a good place it's hard to find a seat at lunch.
Very affordable prices and high quality food. they dont mind if you stick around for a while with your food or coffee as might be the case for some of the travellers taking the nearby coach. the standard across is same as you'd expect but the stuffing in Tuna sub was lesser than usual. Would recommend for quick snack and nice warm coffee
Delicious food, as always at Pret. What really annoys me, though, is that you have to pay an extra £1 if you want to eat your salad inside - absolutely pointless. Do you pay for the privilege to eat from a silver-like tray? Good money-making trick, but it makes the customer feel fooled.
A huge downside of this Pret A Manger is the LACK OF TOILETS in the cafe, so only go there if you're not planning on staying for long, and definitely don't go there if you're looking for a cafe only so that you have somewhere to wee.
Apart from that, the location is nice and calm and there is no hustle-and-bustle from the street. Nice seats and a good selection of cakes, cold no-bread sandwiches, salads, and hot food (hail the chickpea dhal).
Good shop, clean and modern. Tasty fresh sandwiches. (If you want coffee it's good to know filter costs only 99p). Salads and soup while not cheap are very good, extremely interesting / tasty.
As a tourist I was so impressed with the service. I asked the lady behind the counter early this morning for directions to get to Edinburgh castle. After my purchase she walked me out of the shop to the street and showed me where to walk. So impressed!
No one ever takes the time these days to make such a lasting impression. Thanks for making my day!
Great food & drinks. Love this small Pret on Castle Street for its friendly cosy atmosphere. Limited seating but somehow it's also ideal layout if you have a pram 😊

Slightly smaller than the Hanover Street Pret (less seats to sit in). Pret is Pret. Great sandwiches, great soup, great alternatives to bread too! I know it's a chain but I do like a visit and it's a perfect place to meet friends - as long as you make sure they know which one you mean to meet in!
Great coffee and even better service, always greeted with smile. Starbucks take note!!
A good selection of snacks, well presented and varied. Seating limited if you wish to eat in but comfortable surroundings.
I was there today getting a bottle of water and a package of crisps the staff are very helpful indeed, i might go bk to this place in the future and have something to eat
Yea very nice ..service was prompt and polite..
