A pleasure to answer Nice to meet you?
Is "A pleasure." a common way to answer "Nice to meet you"? Are there any other variations?

Question

Answer

You could say that, but it is a bit old fashioned and not so natural.

Nice to meet you too is a bit better

Answer

"My pleasure" is used after someone says thank you.
"Thanks!"
- "My pleasure!"

Herman is correct. In less formal situations, you would just say "you too!" In formal, you would say "and you" or "A pleasure to meet you, too."

Answer

I would prefer answerig 'Nice to meet you, too.' Or you can answer 'You too.' for short.
