I'm very familiar with Panera Locations in SoCal, and usually stop by in between classes at the Lakewood mall location. I was surprised they built one in north phoenix instead of building a paradise bakery. The food is okay, their soups and salads are good. They usually cheap out in the sandwiches so I actually prefer to just stick with their salads. A little pricy for the food you actually get but it's better then the fast food places around the area.
