Exciting new coffee shops are set to open on both sides of the M5 motorway, as Strensham Services near Gloucestershire welcomes Pret A Manger in partnership with Roadchef. Starting this week, travellers passing through the Worcestershire service station will have access to freshly made food and organic coffee from these two new roadside locations.
The first Pret A Manger shop will open on the southbound side of Strensham Services on Friday, November 28, with the northbound outlet following a week later on Friday, December 5. Both shops will operate daily from 7am to 7pm, providing convenient options for travellers at all times.
These new locations will create at least 19 local jobs, contributing positively to the community. They also represent a key part of Pret’s medium-term strategy to expand sustainably by entering high-traffic travel hubs.
