    If I could give service more stars I would! What an amazing sweet group of workers here!! Best Panera in Nebraska by far! This crew definitely deserves some sort or recognition from Panera corporate! I’m a district manager myself and would kill to have my stores run this seem-less even when they are busy!

    I had not been to a Panara in ages! I was surprised that it was much nicer than I had remembered.

    Pick two options are my go to selection. Mexican corn soup and cranberry walnut chicken salad sandwich are my favorites. Very tasty and not too filling. If you are up to handling the kitchen cookie at 800 calories, they are delicious....
