Pret a Manger - The Cut

According to this news story, Pret a Manger is planning to close its branch on the Cut, meaning that potential customers will need to walk the 200m to the one on the Book Warehouse site, or slightly further to the one in the station or the one on Blackfriars Road.

It's a shame for anyone losing their jobs, and that's a big unit to fill on the Cut.

Could be a great site for a Tesco Metro maybe? Quite the hike to the nearest one.

Williamn - do you seriously mean you want another Tesco? They are back to their old practices of trying to reduce their payments to suppliers despite there being previously agreed sums?

Does the loss of Pret A Manger really matter to anybody other than the staff who will lose their jobs.

Tesco? Really? Though I must admit it is such a great distance to the shop next door to the college.

I would welcome another version of Greensmiths.

My comment was tongue in cheek!

I knew that Williamn.

Unfortunately. there is now a Tesco executive thinking 'That's not a bad idea, let's check to see if we have any store less than fifty yards of the site, if not then examine the possible footfall'.
