| I just got a buffalo chicken sandwich from Panera for lunch. All I've ever heard is that Panera is over-priced hospital food but I am shocked at how good this is. Crispy chicken, crispy fried pickles and buffalo sauce on a fresh brioche bun. Is my palate that unsophisticated or is there anyone else out there who has tried Panera recently and agrees with me? |
| It's fine. People just like to insult everything. |
| I am a self proclaimed food snob and I do like Panera. |
| DCUM be hatin’ |
|
Panera is fine for a quick sandwich or salad. It's fast food.
Love the steak sandwich and green goddess salad. |
|
DCUM doesn’t even like the top rated restaurants in the area.
Unless it’s caviar on the French Riviera beach it’s garbage, and half would even complain about that. |
| Greed goddess salad is awesome. |
| I think there's a lot of goodness in panera. Nothing is freshly made or anything, but there are some items that are decent. Wouldn't turn my nose up at it. |
| Panera tastes terrible to me. Everything is so salty! |
| I used to love Panera. Maybe 10 years ago? I hate what it’s become. It’s terrible. And I wanted to love it. |
| It's fine. I like the Fuji Apple salad thing. |
| Panera has been almost as successful as Chick-fil-A at convincing the public that their food is healthier than McDonald's, though. Props to them on that. |

I just saw a video and they eliminating a massive amount of products soon.
French onion soup All the flatbread pizzas 4 sandwiches Sourdough bread & a few other breads Blueberry, chocolate chip, & sesame bagels A bunch of drinks and desserts |
| I've always liked their "you pick two" when you want a l'il salad and a l'il sandwich. More places should do half sizes. |
| Interesting. I’ve never tried Panera because they always seemed a bit meh to look at, like not fast food and not fast casual either. Seemed like it had to be bad and/or overpriced. Maybe I judged unfairly! |
