I received a gift card from some co-workers to Panera in appreciation of my help and was pleasantly surprised. I like to pick up their cinnamon raison bread for toasting but most of the time when I get there it's all gone... More

Nice neighborhood bakery. Popular franchise and hang out for all age groups. Gets lots of business from location and nearby hotels. Management and service is unable to keep up with serving customers.

For breakfast, I recommend the bacon, egg, and cheese on ciabatta or the egg souffles, and the hazelnut coffee (which is always good as Dan keeps it flowing). For lunch or dinner, I like the 1/2 sandwich (all are very... More
