A place to unwind / study / read
Tuesday, April 26, 2005
This particular Panera is spacious--there is lots of room for people to spread out, you can even lodge yourself in an isolated corner if you like. It's a great place to study or catch up on that book you've been working on. The coffee is decent and the refills are free. Plus, they offer soy milk for those patrons who prefer a non-dairy creamer.
Their bagels are unique and flavorful--I would almost describe them as gourmet. I recommend the Asiago cheese with butter or the Chocolate Chip with hazelnut cream cheese.
They also have a selection of gourmet sandwiches (regular or panini style), soups, and salads. Make sure to try the "Seasonal Specials".
Also, they almost always have samples out, and everyone loves free samples!
