Honestly, I don't understand what all the hype is about. Despite what others have said, the prices are outrageous for what you get. I guess when you are posting your calorie count, you're forced to provide smaller portions to make it 'appear' as though they are a healthy option. Keep an eye out though, some of those posted are for only half a serving!
I opted for the broccoli and cheddar soup with a half turkey and avocado BLT and although the flavour was spot on, the quantity didn't justify the price.
This was my first time at Panera so I will definitely give them another go. The service at this location was okay, nothing spectacular so I was left feeling just 'okay' about the place and a tad disappointed with my first experience at Panera. I really expected to be wowed based on what I had heard about them. Oh well, maybe next time.
