Panera Bread

Quick service, love the soup and sammich combo!!! They were both sooo good!!!

Tasty food. Reasonable prices.

I don't recall if I have ever had Panera Bread's food - I have had coffee at various locations a few times when meeting with people, over the years. But this time we found ourselves close to the Evanston store and heading home around dinnertime, and ordered takeout. We each got a half sandwich and side 'two-for meal. The Cuban and Italian sandwiches were good, a little overpowered by the mustard slathered on, to my taste. BUT the Turkey Chili side dish was an experience! I never expected such great chili in a place like this....but it rocks! I am picky about chili, and have even competed at a Terlingua Cook-Off event. I will go back just for this chili - and get a larger portion next time! Also, food was ready and service fast after ordering on-line. TRY THIS CHILI!!

Panera is my favorite place to grab a bite, salad or coffee. It is a clean place to site and enjoy few time or a conversation anyone. It simply amazing.

I first tried to get breakfast a few doors away, at LaPeep. But after waiting at my table for 15 minutes with no attention from a server to bring me a pot of coffee, let alone take my order, I ran out of patience and walked over to Panera. My first breakfast meal at Panera, and it was perfectly lovely. Fresh chunk of crispy bread surrounded a hot egg, bacon, cheese sandwich. And of course a piping hot cup of hazelnut coffee. Cheaper than that other place, fewer calories, and definitely faster.
