Panera Bread is a bakery-cafe chain offering sandwiches, salads, soups and baked goods prepared using carefully sourced ingredients sourced locally whenever possible. They provide online ordering and catering as well as rapid pick-up/delivery in certain locations to make meal time a convenient one!
Following the coronavirus pandemic, some restaurants have extended discounts to first responders and service members. Texas de Brazil provides 20% discounts to police officers, firefighters, EMTs, teachers and educators while Macaroni Grill and Pieology partner with customers to give back to those working tirelessly on the frontlines.
The company has also formed partnerships with third-party delivery services to offer delivery in certain locations. This addition helps reach a broader customer base while competing with fast-casual chains offering delivery services.
Panera Bread maintains an active social media presence and offers customers the convenience of ordering food for pickup or delivery via mobile app. Downloading is free; however a credit card will be needed. Coupons and promotions can also be found on their website; when placing your order be sure to add any applicable ones. Also if using their app make sure it updates frequently so it arrives as scheduled!
