A blog post by Clive Schlee, the CEO of Pret A Manger:
There are buttons to vote at the bottom of the blog post:
1) Open a vegetarian Pret A Manger
2) Devote a fridge to vegetarian food in every shop
3) Pret is fine as it is
Personally, I'm not sure. An exclusively vegetarian store is cool and all, but uh, how many of these were they planning to have? Or is he saying they would all be vegetarian?
If it's just going to be one or two of them, then I'm kinda leaning towards option 2 which could ensure veggie options even in backwards little towns like, say, Oxford.
Also, since I'm a vegan, I would hope the veggie options are going to be vegan.

This would have been unheard of five years ago.
