Pret A Manger is adding nine new vegan items to its January menu, offering those doing Veganuary a plethora of options to choose from.

The new menu will be launched at both Pret and Veggie Pret outlets nationwide from the 5^th of January.

The nine new items include two new breakfast items: a coconut porridge made with oats, red quinoa, and coconut milk; and a vegan breakfast baguette made with smashed avocado, roasted mushrooms, and roasted tomatoes.

In addition, the coffee chain is adding two new wraps: a vegan hoisin mushroom wrap and a sunshine ‘n spice wrap made with curried chickpeas and sweet mango chutney.

The new vegan meatball wrap, which will replace the traditional version for the entirety of January includes “chunky” plant-based meatballs from Meatless Farm, garlic and herbs, salad, chipotle ketchup, and red tapenade.

‘Trailblazers in vegan food’

Commenting on the move, Pret’s UK Food & Coffee Director Briony Raven said in a statement: “As trailblazers in vegan food, we’re really proud of our new Meatless Meatball Hot Wrap.

 “We’ve worked hard to create something that has the Pret taste and quality of one of our classics that our customers expect.

 “To encourage more people to try the new plant-based meat alternative hot wrap, we’ve decided to pull our Swedish meatball wrap for a month as we’re that confident our customers will quickly fall in love with it.”

The new products join Pret’s existing vegan-friendly menu which includes Dark Chocolate & Almond Butter Cookie and Eggless Egg May Cress Baguette.

Veggie Pret outlets in London and Manchester will also be offering some additional vegan options, including the Avo and Chickpeas Herb Wrap, and Chef’s Italian Salad featuring toasted chickpeas, sliced avocado, baby tomatoes, cucumber, shiitake and chestnut mushrooms, and salad leaves.
