Useful comparisons
Portion size can change the nutrition picture
Menu names alone do not make a fair comparison. Our records keep the stated serving with every value, so a cup is never silently compared with a bread bowl and a half sandwich is not presented as a whole sandwich.

Why Panera menu prices vary
A single national price list can be misleading. Panera ordering starts with a selected bakery-cafe, and the amount a visitor sees may depend on the cafe, item size, pickup or delivery channel, customization, promotion, tax and fees. Availability can also change during the day.
Our menu tables use dated reference prices for planning and label them separately from cafe-specific observations. Exact local totals still depend on the item configuration and the cafe used for the purchase.
- 1Select a cafe
Prices must belong to a real US bakery-cafe context.
- 2Match the portion
Half, whole, cup, bowl and packs remain separate.
- 3Record the channel
Pickup figures are not presented as delivery totals.
- 4Date the check
Older observations are reviewed instead of treated as permanent.

Common questions
Panera menu FAQs
Clear answers about prices, sources, locations and how the menu guide is maintained.
Does every Panera cafe use the same menu prices?
No nationwide price should be assumed. The selected bakery-cafe, item size, ordering channel, taxes, fees, availability and promotions can change the total. This guide publishes a price only when the cafe, channel and verification date are recorded together.
Where does the nutrition information come from?
Our editorial team checks serving-level nutrition records against the current source document and keeps every value attached to the exact portion shown. The present dataset was reviewed on August 28, 2026.
How often is this menu guide reviewed?
The publishing workflow uses a weekly review cycle. Time-sensitive facts are checked against their source and verification date before a record is changed, while cafe-specific availability still needs confirmation at ordering time.
How can I find current hours and a nearby Panera location?
This website focuses on nationwide menu information and does not publish unverified location pages. Confirm hours, availability and services directly with the cafe you intend to visit.
Can this guide guarantee that an item is allergen-free?
No. Recipes and preparation conditions can change, and shared equipment may be used. People managing food allergies should review Panera's current allergen information and speak directly with the selected cafe before ordering.
Source-reviewed menu data
Clear context for every menu comparison
Each record keeps its serving, price date and review context together. Reference prices remain clearly labeled, and nutrition values are not separated from their stated portions. Nutrition data is informational and is not medical advice.
