Panera Argument

Author’s Note: My inspiration for this piece came from Hannah and my argument about which restaurant is overall better to eat at, Panera Bread or Noodles & Company? We set out to write each of our arguments about what we thought to be great about each of our chosen restaurants. To add another aspect to support our claims, we went to Panera and Noodles to snap some pictures so readers could refer to them as they read about each one in our pieces.


When given the turn to choose where family dinner is on a Saturday night, many deciding factors have to come into play to make full use of your power. In normal circumstances, I’d fall back on a safe choice like McDonald's or Wendy’s, but why not try somewhere healthier, smarter, and more delicious, like Panera?

In general, Panera is the best place on the market for modern, healthy, and mouthwatering food. This bakery-cafe eatery has been recognized for years as the one of the healthiest fast food restaurants in America. In 2012, Panera Bread was awarded the Casual Dining Brand of the Year along with the #2 Ranking Among Excellent Large Fast Food Chains. Since 2009, Panera has received 14 different awards for being among the highest quality fast food restaurants in the business.


Panera Bread offers more than just good food, you can get that at a lot of places. What is unique about it is that it combines delicious meals with healthy eating. At any Panera across the nation you’ll find a calorie total next to each food item on the menu. Additionally, on the restaurant’s website is an entire nutrition guide. Another plus is that Panera only uses the freshest in-season ingredients in their products; as well as all the bread you see is handmade daily.


In addition to the healthful menu, there are a few goodies slipped in. If you’re willing to spoil yourself, the bakery adds just the right touch to satisfy your sweet tooth after any meal. For dessert, head up to the bakery counter and grab a seasonally decorated cookie, muffin, scone, or anything sweet. If you're thirsty and need something just as good as your meal to wash it down with, Panera also serves specialty drinks such as smoothies, coffee drinks, tea and more. Each Panera provides breakfast, lunch, and dinner options, all equally delectable at every time of the day.


In all, Panera is a unique restaurant with perks that very few others provide. It is a healthy break from the usual greasy fast food most have been accustomed to. With the combination of mouthwatering food, healthy eating options and information, Panera should always be one of your top choices in restaurants no matter what meal it is!
