Pret A Manger set to arrive in Harrogate
The Harrogate district's first Pret A Manger looks set to open.
The Stray Ferret understands the sandwich shop franchise will open on Harrogate's James Street in the unit currently occupied by Messums Yorkshire, a gallery curated by artist Johnny Messum.
It is not yet known precisely when Pret will open but it is believed to be some time in March.
Besides sandwiches, Pret is also known for coffee so its arrival will add to the wide range of options available for caffeine fans.
The landlord of the unit was not available for comment but a well placed source told the Stray Ferret that Pret would be arriving soon.

In the last six months, James Street has seen numerous retail units open and close; Hotel Chocolat opened a cafe in October; this was followed by a new yoga studio Ebru Evrim arriving in the former Laura Ashley building. Harrogate Discount Store is due to close this week.
Pret currently has over 450 cafes in England, with 310 of those in London. Currently, the closest to Harrogate is in Leeds.
