Panera Bread

I appreciate that they have quite a few vegetarian options. I really like the black bean soup, and the Greek salad is nice too. Also, I like the "You Pick Two" option.

I haven't had these in ages and hesitate to mention them, but I really enjoyed the cherry pastry, bear claw, sticky bun, and orange scone. And the rye bread is delicious!

I went to an event and they had Panera catering. I had this Italian sandwich it was really good! Aside from that I don't eat there. We hardly ever eat out and there are other places we'd rather eat at when we do.

I've had their bear claws before... those are pretty awesome. I don't even want to know how much of a calorie bomb one of those are. Probably my daily calories at least.

I actually have one complaint about their sesame semolina bread--they won't sell me a loaf of it. I can buy loaves of their other breads. I could even walk in and order 12 sandwiches made with that bread and they'd sell them to me. But they will not sell me an actual loaf of unsliced sesame semolina. I've asked at two different Paneras around here and both times have been told that they can't sell it to me.

Too calorie dense for the portions. Would rather make my own fresh food.

I really like their food, but it's pretty calorie dense so I rarely eat it.

I'm obsessed with Panera. I usually get black bean soup and half a steak and arugula sandwich. It's only 340 calories, and I'm always super stuffed after. But I could eat soup for every meal. I love soup. It's a little high in sodium so I just eat less sodium for my other meals and drink extra water. No biggie.
