Pret a Manger will open on campus from “early” September 2025, replacing the College Café. The move follows a 2023 survey conducted by Imperial, where the coffee chain was chosen as the Imperial community’s preferred external coffee provider. As part of its inclusion on campus, Pret a Manger agreed to “operate within Imperial’s sustainability criteria”. The College Café closed on 13th June to refit the venue in preparation for the high street coffee vendor’s move onto campus.
