“Update: Stopped back at Panera Bread and once again had a very good experience. This location continues to be a dependable stop for fresh food, good coffee, and a relaxing atmosphere.
The restaurant was clean, organized, and the staff was friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. Our food came out quickly, was fresh, and tasted great. Whether you are stopping in for breakfast, lunch, or just coffee and pastries, this location does a great job keeping quality and service consistent.
One thing we always appreciate about Panera is the comfortable atmosphere. It is a great place to sit down, relax, catch up on work, or just take a break during the day. This Downers Grove location continues to deliver a smooth and enjoyable experience every time we visit.
As Mike & Amy’s Small Town Adventures, we travel throughout Illinois and beyond exploring restaurants and hidden gems, and this Panera Bread remains a solid stop whenever we are in the area. Highly recommended.

“Always great food and I love the different specials! My favorites are the harvest medley chicken salad, acorn squash soup, broccoli cheddar soup, many of the sandwiches; I love all the cookies and the pecan braid! It would be the perfect place if they could offer some gluten free options for their pastries and the breads. Wonderful, friendly, helpful staff.“
