Local food markets offer much better options than Pret to be fair

True, but it avoids any unknowns when the office manager is organising a senior leadership lunch meeting. "Nobody ever got fired for buying Pret".
A great Pret baguette is like £5. Food from a food market is £10 or more these days. They massively increased in price after covid.
Everything massively increased in price. Also you won’t get anything for less than a fiver jn pret. A regular baguette is 6.25 and add a coffee it’s now £10
Fortnum and Mason were cheaper than food markets for quite a while.
It varies. They have cranked the prices up in the last couple of years.
