Put the items in your preferred order.
A
Pret A Manger
A staple of city centres and railway stations, Pret's subscription scheme has won over the office crowd. Reliable flat whites and a familiar feel, even if prices keep creeping up.
B
Costa Coffee
Founded in London in 1971, Costa remains the default high street option for millions. Strong espresso-based drinks and a no-nonsense menu keep it ahead in many towns.
C
Caffè Nero
Often praised for having the best coffee of the big chains, Nero leans into a continental café atmosphere. A favourite among those who actually care about the bean.
D
Greggs
Yes, really. Greggs now sells millions of coffees a week at a fraction of the price, often paired with a sausage roll. A genuine threat to the established order.
E
Your local independent
Whether it's a converted railway arch or a tiny corner spot, indie cafés often serve the best brew in town. Better beans, better baristas, and you actually know the staff.
