Pret A Manger in Hillingdon

Was trying to eat my sandwich and some lady from your kept trying to sweep around my table as I was eating. There were plenty of other people around and she goes out of her way to tell me to “throw your trash away when you’re done” in a condescending tone, as if I wasn’t going to!?? Assuming I’m a slob for what? teach your staff respect.

Lots of options for food and very tasty - not so much for cold drinks, though. It is also a bit pricey in comparison to other places. Staff were a little stand-offish but otherwise fine. Lots of available tables to sit at, and the atmosphere was generally good.

DISCRIMINATION!!!!! I am utterly shocked and deeply disappointed by the behavior of the staff at Pret in Heathrow Airport T5. During my visit, an employee named Roshni asked me, “Are you Chinese?” and followed it up with a blatantly offensive comment about my “small eyes.” This kind of outright DISCRIMINATION has no place in any business, let alone one that serves people from all over the world. I felt humiliated and degraded by such disrespectful behavior. How is it acceptable for an employee to stereotype and INSULT a customer so casually?

£6 for a posh pickle baguette and £4 for a flat white. The prices are absolutely astonishing!!

Taste bad They don’t know how to make matcha Not recommended

Pret A Manger offers very good, fresh and healthy sandwiches, good juices and fast and attentive checkout staff. Better than at many other airports and the prices are OK too.

Good filter coffee. No need for burnt Starbucks at inflated prices. Thank you Cho Cho. You are very, very kind!!

Wonderful service! Products are same as any other Pret A Manger

Awful coffee and poor customer service. They even laugh at you when you ask something

Very good typical pret, quality is always top…very busy as in an airport as expected, but all good no complaints!

I attended pret in Heathrow Terminal 5 today and every member of staff was notably pleasant and cheery despite a very busy day. It really made a difference to have such nice and friendly service, especially in a pret as I notice this is mostly not the case in the central London stores. It made a positive difference to my day and I felt it should be commended. Thank you!

An excellent service and good standard food. The staff are amazing. I use T5 regularly and this is great especially for the very early morning flights

Tasty baguette and crisps. Very friendly staff. The selection should be bit more varied

Pret A Manger – Fast and cheap solution to hunger in Terminal 5 Pret A Manger in Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport is more of a self-service shop than a restaurant. There are plenty of refrigerators with prepackaged sandwiches and drinks (both hot and cold). The prices are relatively cheap for an airport - we bought two rolls which cost less than £5 each. The concept is ideal if you have little time, as the store is centrally located in Terminal 5. In our case, this was crucial because we dropped off our luggage late and then had to rush to the flight. In such situations, a quick stop at Pret A Manger is a practical solution. There are a lot of checkouts and things go very quickly with a lot of customers because everything is well structured. However, there is no service in the classic sense - you are not given any advice and everything is pre-packaged. The food itself isn't bad, in fact it tastes quite good, but there isn't much variation. The ambience is open and uncluttered, but seating is limited and it's geared towards quick consumption. It's fine for a quick sandwich, but if you have more time, you should definitely choose another option and visit a real restaurant. Conclusion: Quick, cheap solution for travelers in a hurry, but not the best choice for someone looking for a real meal. Rating: 2/5 stars

It does seem a lot extra 20% added to the cost of the food and drinks at terminal 2 Pret Especially when there are very few seats actually free and the tables are dirty and not cleaned-I was asked if I would like to clean the table and the operative gave me some tissue to clean it with-This does not seem good customer service, especially for the extra 20% added on - We also only got one paper napkin given for two sandwiches and two adults and when I asked for a second one after using that one tissue to clean the table, the operative was very unwilling

I met a gentleman called Gaurab and he was the most fantastic individual ever. I was having a really bad day but talking to him brightened my day up. Will definitely come again!

I love Pret, no matter where they are. The one at T5/Heathrow has a great selection and even better customer service. Especially Krzysztof B. made my day today! Lovely guy, very customer friendly!

In typical British fashion, the only budget option are a bunch of carbs to rush you into an early grave. Classic English trying to kill off the poor as usual. Disgusting options at this airport.

I had such a wonderful experience thanks to Waree (apologies if I misspelled your name). The service was outstanding! My friend was really craving the hot porridge from Pret, but there was none left on the shelves. Waree suggested calling other locations to check availability, but then went above and beyond by taking the initiative to check in the kitchen and try to get some prepared, even though it was a busy time. This level of care and dedication truly made our day. Thank you, Waree!

Very, very tasty, and very friendly staff. Clean and healthy

Always a great experience at Pret. Sandwiches, wraps and salads. The fruit juices are also remarkable. Clean environment, attentive staff, new and comfortable seats.

Bought 2 hot drinks and staff refused to fill a water bottle. Not the usual level of service I'm used to from Pret. Response from Pret after following their response below and instructions to contact them below ..."We're so sorry to hear that you had such a disappointing time when you visited. Please be advised in some of our stores the staff are unable to accommodate to this request due to in some instances the facilities not being available to provide this" ...... It's incredulous that Pret doesn't have a cold water supply.

The place at Terminal 5 opened almost an hour ago and still no warm sandwiches available. Pretty annoying.

Amazing before a flight. One of the best things about Heathrow

The staff at Terminal 5 Landside is very proffesional, especially Claudia who is excellent barista. She always welcome everyone with a smile, trying to be above and beyond. Don't lose her, because she is a real treasure ;) Food is a bit pricey but fresh. There is always good selection.

I have ordered my usual coconut hot chocolate as I can’t drink normal coffee. After few sips realised that my drink tastes really funny, so when opened the cap I found coffee bean swimming in it! Was really angry as even these couple sips gave me a massive headache, which is why I’m avoiding to drink coffee. Went back to the counter and the lady who was taking an order would at least apologise. And that’s not the 1st time when this happened. Hope is not going to happen to the person who has allergies as this will put them in a big troubles. Poor service for sure !

Wide selection of hot and cold food and good organic coffee. Very busy and pushy queue jumpers irritating and area quite noisy. Despite this, the counter service was fast and delivered with a smile. My hot macaroni cheese was tasty as was the filter coffee and just what I needed between flights.

Normally, I would say that Im happy with Pret A Manger. However, I got food poisoning after eating salad with prawns in therminal 5 departure lounge. I felt sick on the plane after, so wasnt' ideal, shall we say. This was not cheap either. Dissapointed.

Can you please bring back the powdered chai latte sachets rather than the syrup ☹️ - chai latte has no taste in it what so ever. Thank you

£3 for a croissant and £3 for bottle of water unless you’re a member. Whoever came up pricing strategy should be fired. Last time I ever set foot in a Pret.

The worst customer experience I have ever had. The lady who served me was 2nd from the end on the counter and wearing a “baby on board” badge. I asked for 2 skinny lattes and 2 pastel de natas. She repeated the order to me and I again repeated it to her. I was given 2 flat whites. When I said that I had ordered 2 lattes, she got nasty and started to argue. She said that she had repeated my order to me and I had asked for flat whites. I have never drank a flat white in my life. The customer next to me said rather loudly, “ she clearly has never heard of customer service”. I suggest you either give her thorough training or replace her with someone who cares about customers!!!!

Clairisha went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and listened to. She’s a star and a credit to the team! 🤩

Baguette was tasty but SOooo expensive. Pret seems to be taking advantage of its current monopoly on fast food in T5 while Starbucks is being refurbished. Queues long, service disinterested and lacklustre, chaotic, long wait for a cup of tea. I would suggest that you don’t bother with it but, at the moment, you don’t have a choice

Customer service was quite rude

The chai latte they serve tastes like medicine. It is not even a chai. Why do they even have it in menu if they don’t know what a chai is.

Just bought two americanos lady handed them to me but was rude and had a bad attitude. A smile with service doesn’t hurt!

Always reliable for a quick bite to eat or drink. The coffee has thankfully improved. Think half decent "High Street" coffee rather than anything more interesting. Good selection of sandwiches, wraps, soup, salads plus smoothies, juices and the like. Busy but service is fast and friendly. Plenty of seating but you get a lot of people loitering without any food or drink being consumed.

I queued for ten minutes only to be told they can't make a black coffee. I spoke with the manager, who said they limit the coffee types as they are busy. Fair enough, but put a sign up so we don't have to wait. Not everyone drinks latte or capachino.

Ten pounds for a black coffee and a bacon roll. Coffee was so hot I barely hold it even after double sleeving. Of course I couldn't finish it, or barely have it

Almond croissant is flaky but mostly bland. Confusing service, coffee is handed out in a small corner and you need to remember the person who served you. Staff are generally very patient, big kudos to them. Airport prices (under GBP 7 for croissant & espresso) but decent discounts for ClubPret subscribers.

27/01/2024 I came to get my coffee prior to my flight and asked for a caramel mocha with oat milk. The guy then said we don’t have that, and continuously asked me to repeat what I wanted even though I said it clearly. It was quite disappointing

I “discovered” the Posh Cheddar and Pickle Baguette on this trip to London. That and the Hot Shots might now be one of my favourite things about London.

Very bad service. Terminal 5 landside.

Slowest till operators in the local galaxy. I don't know the name of the guy wgo served me but he obviously doesn't enjoy his job. Miserable. Avoid this place

Worst service ever We ordered 6 chai latte and we were served room temperature chai latte. We asked them to make them hot and they said we dont heat it up again but they refused. Worst service 3-4 employees are fighting with us on this issue. Pathetic behaviour

The place is located in front of gate #3 the smell of the croissant call you ,the coffee and tea ,they have great salads ,juice and the service is fantastic ! Definitely a must . Highly recommend ! Thanks so much to the girls at the counter . They made my day ,with these special coffee !

Falafel wrap was great, fresh. Coffee and chocolate croissant also.

The Pret is located on the Departure bay of Heathrow Terminal 5

Awful humans, awful attitude. No sense of service or even basic decency.

Very busy. They didn’t have what I wanted but the lady at the till didn’t tell me that, she just decided to process my order without it and let me pay. I only saw it from the receipt and then asked and only then was I told. It’s expensive and not worth the money but what do you expect from a chain like Pret in an airport like Heathrow?

The person serving me fondled my pastry with his fingers and when I asked to change it to another that he hadn’t touched, he simply put the original one back on the hot shelf for someone else to pick. He then walked away and left me to be served by someone else who was too busy talking to other colleagues. Being in an airport proving rapid on the go service doesn’t excuse such terrible “customer service” and poor food safety etiquette! Truly disgraceful. I did not buy from here and wouldn’t recommend anyone else do so either.

Very busy but the line moves fast and the service was friendly. Italian chicken salad, mango smoothie and muesli were delicious as usual.

Lady taking order literally stood sighing and rolled her eyes at me when I was looking for my wallet to get my credit card as I only had US dollars in my pocket from holoday. Complete lack of customer service and totally uncalled for.

Food was delicious, service was nice n fast. It was crowded so I guess it's a popular and a good place for food. Especially when you are traveling from the airport, it's a good place to grab a quick bite...

Your prices are very expensive, around 30% more than your normal shops, M&S are far cheaper than you, we were going to use you for lunch working here but not now ..

Food was great as always, staff was nice and talkative, though atmosphere was very busy; other than that it was nice

Hi , today at lunch time I left an important souvenir rapped in newspaper ( It is a rolled up painting) just in front of this pret and manger in the tables to charge the cell phones. Could you please check It out and let me know if you have It to figure out How can I get It back?

Visited at 7pm and it had full stock. Prices are not too bad. Queues were quite long.

If you’re going to charge me ~£6 for a sandwich jt better not be half soggy half stale

Good food, but the service was quite bad, they couldn’t even be bothered to acknowledge you or say thank you.

We were served by such a lovely lady. It was such a positive experience and the food was delicious !!

We are all familiar with Pret, and there's no need for me to write a review about it. However, I wanted to emphasize the exceptionally cheerful service I received here, which was quite different from my experiences in central London. The friendly staff made my visit all the more enjoyable, adding a special touch to the familiar setting.

It was extremely busy. They had areas for us to peruse then you had to go up to pay. It was a bit of chaos over there but people were patient and generous. I got the proper porridge. It wasn’t the porridge that I grew up with though. It was oatmeal. I added some honey and it was delicious. They also sell wine. They should be probably have a better process with the lines and who is taking orders vs who is making them and dropping them off. It would be more efficient.

Good selection of nice and fresh food as well as snacks. It might get a bit crowded due to being in an airport terminal. Staff is quite friendly and assistive. Prices are absolutely fair.

The Pret at T5 by gates A2/A3 is always brill. Absolutely lovely, friendly staff.

Quite possibly the worst cappuccino I’ve ever had. The service was quick and polite despite the queue, but I’m not sure that makes up for the £3.25 cup of dirty water.

The best thing ever of this place are these heavenly Pastéis de nata or Portuguese Custard tarts. My layover at Heathrow was worth it because of these tarts and grabbed a lot more to take home.

Terminal 5, Heathrow Best meal I've ever had at an airport! The Caesar Chicken with bacon was devine! The baguette was crisp and fresh. Better still, the young man, Gideon, at the cashier was polite, friendly, patient and helpful. Also, I had a cup of filtered coffee which was terrific. After a tiring day of travel, this was a perfect respite! Terry B.

Ich mag die Vielfalt bei Pret. Das Essen ist immer frisch und der Kaffee schmeckt gut

It is disgusting and dirty ,food all over, no one cleans the tables or the floor The costumers are doing the cleaning

Terrible service this morning both servers were rude raising their voices at us because I gave them coins instead of using card. Additionally the lady server stated i gave her fake money. Very discriminatory service. I did not feel welcomed

Ordered and paid for my coffee and then was told if I am sure if I have ordered and wasn’t given my coffee!

I go to pret almost everyday and I have to say this morning was terrible. First of all, I ordered and I was waiting to pay because I scanned my description and the payment didn’t change so I told the guy 2 times and he kept telling me, you have to pay people are waiting behind you. So I paid told him again, I don’t think my description scan went through and then he told me he didn’t understood me and now it is too late because I already paid. A shame! In the plane I opened the pret bag and my order was wrong. I clearly told him I wanted a cherry croissant, he even repeated it and he gave a cookie. And I paid for a cherry croissant. I m very annoyed and disappointed. Worst pret experience ever.

Absolutely disgusting coffee. Served boiling hot with no flavour at all. Staff were rude. Avoid at all costs.

Excellent coffee quality. Nice seating area, albeit small. Found ice but no tap water. Very friendly attendive staff.

A go-to food shop but crowded like anything. The terminal is small and compact and this food hall is so small that you may struggle yo to get your food. sandwich start at £4-6 which is okay. Drinks, and other cold stuff is available. located just before the boarding gates so you can get your drinks before you board.

Their salmon sandwich is very tasty. Was here in October 2022 and just two days ago. Price is just reasonable.

Excellent staff who helped me out with some plaster as I had a small cut. Great team, thank you

December 2nd 2022 after a long haul flight was craving coffee and scone, stood in line for over 10 minutes. ( I do understand how BUSY Heathrow is )Finally was handed stale, lukewarm brew by an unfriendly barista. Am a coffee lover thus know when my Java is not up to par. Shrugged it off.January 25th 2023. coffee was bitter & sludgy. Totally and utterly disappointed. Once is ok but twice is unforgivable. Not again for sure.

Incredibly badly run Pret. No efficiency. Staff don't seem to understand eachother and definitely didn't understand me. They had technical difficulties today which happens but it just descended into absolute chaos. I imagine it's quite a good earner purely due to the brand and captive market but one of the worst run chain coffee shop franchisees I've ever experienced.

Took my dried out and burnt at the end hot wrap back.Staff told me they would all be the same as they are in the heater!Refunded but had to buy a cold wrap. on departure so really wanted hot. Coffee mediocre.. Little choice in T5 but next visit will give Pret a miss and take my own food.

Pret make tasty sandwiches in lots of varieties. Their breakfast pots are excellent too. I've been told that the coffee is excellent, better than Starbucks and other chains, but I haven't tasted it. There is a lot of choice here and it's a good place to stock up before getting on the plane.

We were very impressed with a great selection of ready made sandwiches and other meals. The prices of the sandwiches were very reasonable. The coffee lattes we ordered were expensive and not a very generous serving. But it was fast and good.

Pare a comer algo y me costo elegir entre tantas opciones, al final elegí el Christmas lunch que incluía una donación para los homeless. Hay también variedad de postres en lo que incluyen opciones saludables como fruta o macedonia.

Really busy but managed to get a strong tea with croissant, fairly quick service. Good to see diversity of staff members serving.

Always get my tea or coffee at the Gate A3 Pret. I find it quieter and you can charge your phone. However this morning I was the first customer and my coffee was on the house! Nice people. Thank you

Average quality, unfortunately today rather useless staff

I tried salmon salad bowl and it was good and refreshing.

My friends and I all purchased the hot swedish meatball sub. Later that night we all got food poisoning - can‘t recommend.

Great customer service, but quite appalled by the food quality. In my smoked salmon I found a bone. I was quite put off and nauseated by this.

Excelente service! Very busy day and I was super well served, the food and smoothies are really good! Much better then the meal deals around. Well worth! Special thanks to Stalin! You are a legend!

Pret A Manger bietet eine große Auswahl an Sandwiches. Immer frisch und sehr lecker!

The staff member that was serving me was rude and when I ordered my coffee he started making jokes of what I ordered

£6 for a foul stale meatball wrap that went straight in the bin. Heathrow T5 is grim.

سندوتش الحلوم والفلافل 😭♥️♥️ يارب يفتحون بالرياض

They charged me an extra item and didn’t give me a refund

As a coeliac, I was hoping to get a sandwich, but no. If you’re vegetarian or vegan (lifestyle choice), loads of choice. If tou have coeliac disease, which is a serious illness, not a hope.

Very quick service and lovely friendly staff...they took extra time to ensure my daughter got everything she wanted.

Typical Pret unit in airport setting. Expect long queues as punters want a tea or coffee before a flight out of England. If you are familiar with Pret, then look no further than the Pret at Heathrow Terminal 5. May I suggest, for the sake of light humour, that this Pret unit is dubbed or renamed as ‘Preathrow’.

The incompetence of the coffee staff is quite breathtaking. It was caos and super slow. They only gave me mine when i asked for a refund. Do yourself a favour don't go there
