Maybe a slightly upscale 7-11?

I associate Pret with airports for some reason.

I’ve eaten at several Pret a Mangers in London and they were ok, nothing to write home about but not bad. Better than a grocery store sandwich. Similar to an Amazon Go sandwich. Better than Subway. Here in Chicago we have a chain called Potbelly that’s pretty good and Pret is definitely below them. (Also it seems the only Pret still open in the US is the one on the UChicago campus)

Yeah, Pret is forever centered in my mind as airport food too. Probably because the first one I saw was in one.
