Coffee & food as expected for a chain store.Sorry despite many visits the staff are not as friendly as in others.Sometimes I really feel I am disturbing them asking to be served.I know I only usually visit this store at weekends as its the closest one to my home so it's busy but always leave feeling unwelcome.

Kasha ‘served’ me yesterday - all I wanted was a quick take away. She didn’t make eye contact, was not interested and when I asked for a bag she was rude and sarcastic. She more or less made fun of me and came across as quite intimidating. I can see that she has other bad reviews and I suggest that senior management retrain her immediately. If I go into store again and receive this approach, I will write to the CEO to ask why they are allowing someone who seems to hate customers, to be customer facing.

Kasha needs a lesson in customer service. Kasha was unprofessional and passive aggressive towards me. I ordered a drink and without me even having a chance to order another she started preparing my first drink. I then placed my second drink order and she said wasn’t able to use a second subscription. My mum was sat outside the shop???? I was ordering a drink for her. I’m paying for two subscriptions so that we are able to enjoy coffees and drinks together. I was also told very rudely that ice could not be omitted from the already sub par watered down juice. This experience has put me off Pret and I’m contemplating cancelling both of the subscriptions. Kasha - if you hate your job that much - leave. Customers do not deserve to be treated like this.

Was shocked at how much everything gone up, and disappointed that tables not cleaned very often, also there should be one price only, I will be looking for somewhere else in future I'm sorry to say.

This "Pret A Manager " branch is a total joke. Every single time wallk in there is a nightmare. If I have an option not to go there I don't! I try to get my coffee at ST Mary Cray's. Today's service was extra awful. I order my coffee as usual ( one person in front of me , 5 more waiting for a coffees). While I was waiting they served more or less 8 people more. EVERY SINGLE person walked away with a coffee... I was still waiting. I did have to ask three times for my coffee. The answer " only one coffee machine working " . I couldn't understand way it was relevant and unfortunately they were clueless as well. I had to wait while THREE MORE people walked away with their coffee to get mine. You wana ruin your day? Go there for a coffee ?.
The worst customer service. Served my drink wrong twice but most appalling a member of staff pushed my friends buggy into our table! She didn’t even attempt to ask us to move it (which we would’ve happily), thank god her baby wasn’t in the buggy but it’s still absolutely unacceptable. We were the only people in the entire place and the buggy was not obstructing the path and there were many other routes she could’ve taken. Also audibly heard the staff slagging me off for complaining about my drink. I didn’t even complain I just politely asked if they would remake my chai latte without coffee because I hadn’t asked for it to have coffee in. The next drink tasted like a Yankee candle.Never going back

The staff are so incredibly rude and hostile to the customers while spending all their time loudly shouting at one another and telling jokes.For the third time I’ve been treated terribly when trying to specify “oat milk” and receiving the wrong order.I have a northern accent so I always try to be clear and repeat myself when asking for this - I’m lactose intolerant so I don’t have much choice - which itself often provokes annoyance in staff, “I heard you the first time!”They never repeat back the order or acknowledge it. I only find out the mistake when I get the cup with or without the right sticker, and then I’m always the problem, “you didn’t say oat milk!” “Yes, I did. 3 times. You didn’t understand me or confirm, and now you’re deflecting at me.”I’m not sure who the manager is there but they should have a good word or find some replacements.Time for me to cancel my membership and find a new coffee shop.

Lovely place to grab a drink during summer. Indoor seating and outdoor space is good
