I live here.
Literally.
I spend HOURS at a time here, taking advantage of their free wifi as I no longer have internet at home.
I know I over welcome my stays because I'm there long enough to see employee work shifts changeover. Haha. And I gotta love Panera Bread for not giving me the boot! They should consider me a piece of their furniture. They probably already do!
It's a bit of a drive for me, but well worth it because they let me stay for hours, the food is great and the service is good. Plus the atmosphere is perfect for your lonesome or a group.
Here are my faves on the menu:
- the breakfast souffles (Wish these were bigger. I'm always sad when I'm down to the last bite.)
- chocolate chip muffie (For those who only eat muffin tops!)
- cinnamon chip scone
- Asian Sesame Salad
Unfortunately, I have yet to find "my" sandwich... I've only tried one of their sandwiches (chicken frontenac) which was good, but it's not "the one." All of my fave items keep on sucking me in so a sandwich isn't my first choice. But we'll see this week... maybe I'll find "the one"....
