Pros: Great food. Uncommon selection.
Fabulous bread and bagels Cons: No potato entrees. Just chips
Youre so cheap You walked into Panera like you were walking into the Ritz Your eye methodically scanned around the tables Your friend already there sits You had one hand on a menu as you watched the bagel splits ...
Pros: Pastry Perfection, Bread Bonanza, Bountiful Bagels, Sandwiches to savor! Cons: If you live close you'll be dropping by often so loosen your belt!!!
Panera is not only a feast for the palette, but for your eyes! When you walk up to the dramatic display of pastries, breads, bagels and muffins just calling you from over the counter you won't know what to buy first! Panera have everything a carbo-freak...
I am here to tell you first hand that Panera Bread has incredible food. I have been an employee there for about a month now and see what goes on. There is a big variety of sandwiches, breads, and soups to choose from, along with the gigantic bakery....
Pros: Fresh bread, no preservatives, great atmosphere, friendly staff, gigantic portions, best lemonade ever, huge bagels Cons: Close at 9pm. The bread has no preservatives so must be frozen to extend shelflife.
I make a point of eating at Panera Bread at least twice a week, usually in Cedar Rapids or Iowa City. I have never had a bad meal, and the atmosphere is absolutely fantastic. When you walk in, you hear soft music (usually jazz or classical), and they...
Pros: It's a "real" bakery. Cons: Sandwiches too fancy for me.
Tired of buying (mediocre at best) baked goods in the grocery store? Tired of dry doughnuts and so-so breads? Then check out Panera!! I was introduced to Panera by the company I work for. Each month we have an office meeting and gather together the...
Pros: Always fresh food; lots of variety in food choices Cons: Inconsistency from one Panera to another; you have to know where to go
When the first St. Louis Bread Company restaurant appeared in my area, I was a little skeptical. After all, why would I want to go to eat at a place that served just bread? I couldn't understand the attraction at first.
Pros: Great food, nice atmosphere! Cons: Somewhat yuppie!
Mention Panera Bread around my friends and they would think the same thing - yuppie place. However I work in a yuppie area, therefore I frequently have lunch at Panera. My friends have never even been in a Panera because of the yuppie image. However,...
Pros: excellent combo meals, delicious sandwiches, good baguettes Cons: bagels leave much to be desired
Don't be tricked by the name "Panera Bread" - there's a lot more here than you might think.
Imagine a lunch where for about $5, you get your choice of 2 of the following: 1/2 sandwich, small bowl of soup, or 1/2 salad. Drinks are extra. The...
Pros: Great Food, Good Prices and a Comfortable atmosphere Cons: New so it has long lines
Panera Bread is brand new to my area (South Eastern Massachusetts)but apparently has been around for many years. My husband and I have been there several times since it first opened. The prices are good and you get a lot. We tend to go for the...
Pros: Great fresh tasty food without grease Cons: Always crowded
I've eaten at the Panera Bread in 3 different Places, Jacksonville FL, Orlando FL, and Chattanooga TN. This chain actually has managed to keep the food quality high no matter which store you dine in.
Pros: Close to work, decor has nice colors Cons: Too expensive for what you get
Bread, bread and more bread. Bagels, pastries, salads, soup and sandwiches. That seems to be what Panera Bread is all about. If bread is your passion then you've hit the right spot. If friendly, quick and accurate service is what you're after...
Pros: Great atmosphere, friendly service and delicious coffee. Cons: No Pumpernickel Bagels! Muffins should always be served warm.
I really enjoyed my visit to Panera. There was so much to choose from and everything looked so good. After quite a few minutes of trying to decide what to order, I finally got the best tasting and best looking latte I ever had. I forget what they...
Pros: Caters to carnivores and vegetarians alike for every meal of the day, hot or cold. Cons: Depending on location, there seems to be a trend in the lack of Caesar dressing.
Breakfast: Panera is a place where anyone can go and be excited about breakfast. For the early morning sensitive stomachs like mine, a fresh croissant and a tall hot chocolate hit the spot. However, for those like my mother, a walking sugar addict,...
Pros: The best selection of the finest breads, soups, sandwiches and coffeee Cons: None
I don't think anything could beat the excitement of having Panera's open up a shop within a mile of my house. (Well, maybe a few things but not many.).
Panera's is the creme de la creme of coffee house/ bakery/ lunch cafe I've come across....
Pros: Fresh delicious food, fast friendly service Cons: A little pricey
The Panera Bread restaurant that I usually visit is located in downtown Boulder, CO. Ever since it opened about a year ago right around the corner from where I work, it has become one of the most popular breakfast and lunch spots for almost everyone in...
