PRET A Manger has officially opened the doors of its first branch in Bradford. 

The Pret store can be found in the unit formerly occupied by Tiffin Coffee Grande, which sits on the corner of Charles Street and Market Street.

Pret will offer a menu of freshly prepared food, plus organic coffee and teas.

Pret created six new jobs for the local economy.

The London-based chain is a regular sight on many high streets, with over 270 branches in London, and six in Leeds.

It comes at a time of regeneration in city centre, with the new Brazilian/Japanese fusion restaurant Sakku Samba next door and huge projects like the Darley Street Market.

Tiffin closed its store to make way for the Pret chain, but there are exciting plans in the pipeline.

Tiffin's branch in The Wool Exchange will also close, but the two branches will then merge and reopen in the former Natwest Bank on Hustlergate.
