The food and beverage chain will begin selling evening meals through Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat from Thursday as it bids to gobble up a slice of the lucrative dinner market.

Pret’s new dinner menu, which will initially be offered from 30 stores based predominantly in London, will focus on healthy options including curries, rice bowls, mac and cheese, focaccia pizzas, and salads. 

The business is also launching a new ‘Order Ahead’ service on its website this week, allowing customers to arrange a takeaway breakfast or lunch from their local Pret at a specified time.
