Customers will be able to enjoy a freshly made sandwich on Pret for the pret-fect al fresco picnic.

So, if your name is Nick (or begins with ‘Nic’…), you can claim a free, delicious sandwich at select Pret shops across the UK over the bank holiday weekend. No need for the last-minute panic, Pret’s got Nic’s covered to fuel the feel-good vibes for your pic‘Nic’ this long weekend - all you need is your ID.

Here’s how it works:

• Who can claim? Anyone with a ‘Nic’-name (Nick, Nicholas, Nicole, Nicola, Nicolette, Nico), can pop into one of the participating Pret shops (but hurry as limited to 50 on the day) and show their ID to claim their free sandwich at the tills.

• What’s on offer? One free freshly made sandwich from the Pret menu for your park lunch.

• How many? The first 50 ‘Nic’s’ at each location have the chance to enjoy a free sandwich

• How do I redeem? Just pop into one of the participating shops on the specified day. Select a sandwich from one of the langars then head over to a team member at the tills and show them your ID to prove your ‘nick’ name before getting a free sandwich. The activity is limited to the first 50 ‘Nick’s on the selected day at participating Pret shops and is only redeemable for a sandwich (excludes baguettes, wraps or rye rolls)

• When & where?

Edinburgh: 135 Princes St, Edinburgh EH2 4BL, (near Princes Street Gardens) Monday 26th
