I'm not impressed with this place at all. I do compare it to Panera because they serve identical things with similar decor. If they wanted to not be compared, they should have done something about their menu or decor.
I think their sandwiches (and warm sandwiches) are smaller. I don't like their bread either. As are their soups. I tried the chicken chili and it was good but too small... but it's not better than the Panera Chicken and Wild Rice Soup.
I think this place is only better because it's cleaner. They have a person that cleans off the tables (unlike Panera) and it's closer to campus for students.
