Pret has demanded a small south London bakery change its name - despite its French owners saying their name has nothing to do with the coffee shop giant.

Bread a Manger, an artisan bakery in Bermondsey, south London, was hit with a letter from Pret’s lawyers in February which demanded it change its name.
