I used to go to Panera often for lunch. There were a lot of places within 5 minutes walking distance from my work. Here were the choices: Panera, Chick Fil A, Chipotle, Pete's A Pizza, and Potbelly. Of these places, where would you have gone? And don't say you wouldn't have gone to any of these places and just been satisfied with your kale smoothie. |
I would get a clam and shrimp pizza at Pete’s! |
. I like them all! Southwest Chicken Salad from CFA Carnitas bowl from Chipotle Squash soup from Panama Powerhouse Salad from Potbelly And any kind of pizza! |
It is so crowded,nobody goes there.

I like their turkey chili and the black bean soup |
Too early to be drinking, my friend! |
It is someplace my whole family will eat at. It is not burgers. But we might end up there 4 times a year...not a regular thing. |
+1 I’m from STL and it’s totally different there, even today. |
Everything is not customizable. I've asked for things to be altered at multiple places and told it's premade. I haven't gone back. |
I used to be a fan through 2013ish, but now eat it maximum once a year
1. By the time I get what I want with the half and half combo at least one item (often two) has an up charge — pricey 2. Quality downhill 3. Very crowded; inadequate seating at some locations |
I tried it twice in dc and found it disgusting. Then I went to another one out of state and it was actually good. |
Minimal human interaction with kiosk or online ordering.
You can park for hours with a laptop. Comfy place to work with colleagues. Caffeine, sugar, *and* veggies. Clean bathrooms. Fireplace. |

I went today, inspired by this thread. I love the tuna sandwich. |
Mostly old folks in the one near me... |
