We are Panera. We are bakers of bread. We are fresh from the oven. We are a symbol of warmth and welcome. We are a simple pleasure, honest, and genuine. We are a life story told over dinner. We are a long lunch with an old friend. We are your weekday morning ritual. We are the kindest gesture of neighbors. We are home. We are family. We are friends.

Our bakery-cafes are an everyday oasis: They are a place to gather with friends or enjoy a quiet moment alone. We are comfortable, friendly, fashionable and a great place to recharge and feel rejuvenated. Slip into one of our seriously comfy chairs and stay awhile to enjoy our free Wi-Fi as you dine on one of our signature sandwhiches, soups or pastries.
