Panera Bread

Sandwiches, soups are delicious. Little pricey.. Reheated soups shouldn't cost this much. Sandwich sizes little small for the price. Can you please provide cold drinks in classes containers too? Too much plastics. Appreciate China dishes elsewhere. No need for plastic straws and stirrers. Please. You can easily be one plastic free as you already use China mugs and dishes. Last star held for sustainability.

I always have a great experience at Panera Bread. They have many Vegetarian options. Some might find their prices a bit high, but I never go away hungry. The soup/salad or soup/sandwich options are great for both lunch or a lighter dinner. These options include a choice of chips, apple, or baguette. I always loved the variety of teas sold by "The Republic of Tea." I'm sad to see they do not sell that brand anymore. They sell Tetley, which is fine, but not comparable to The Republic of Tea.

Quiet place. Very attentive and kind staff: 5 stars to them. The roasted turkey and apple sandwich was nice! The staff member smiled with pleasure when I picked this sandwich because she said it was good. The cranberry bread was really delicious. We had it toasted, but they told me after that they usually make it not toasted, which may be better because the sandwich filling is packed with cold items. It was quite messy.

It's a decent place to study/get work done. Heartland is a busy plaza so I was expecting a bigger location. I've been to larger Panera locations in less busy plazas. Off peak hours are typically good because you can find several seating options and noise level is lower for those of us trying to do work. Food and coffee is standard as other locations.
