Panera Bread

Well the «Turkey Chili» came back on the menu a few month ago. Nice but, it seems to me the recipe has changed so I don’t like it as much. Oh well… Change is always good though and Panera added to/​revised their menu recently. The offerings containing turkey are delish. I eat lunch here often. Why… I like the quick ordering process, the cleanliness of the restaurant, the friendly service, the ease of seeing the calorie count of each item, the general relaxed feeling I get when eating here. Recipes are slightly different from the norm which makes for a refreshing change in taste. Seriously, adding sliced apple, cranberry, various seed and dressings make a typical dish much better. Also, if not busy the staff will come around and offer to take your finished food tray. The other day they even came around offering a sample of one of their baked items. That’s a nice touch which is not common at a «chain» restaurant.
Keep it up Panera. Your good work will be rewarded. Unilocalers… enjoy!

One of our two favorite spots for coffee. Comfortable atmosphere. Every staff member is friendly and goes out of their way to make every customer feel at home. I love the quinoa kale broth bowl, the cheese sandwich, the baked potato soup, the Greek salad, and that pastry with the pecans on top! Wow! Great place!
