16 Panera Bread Menu Hacks You Need To Know

Incorrect Orders
If your order is wrong, ask for a complimentary treat. Some stores may not honor this request, but you can email customer service if you have any issues.
Vegan Sandwich
The Mediterranean Veggie Sandwich becomes vegan if you eliminate the feta cheese. Most bread options are not a problem, but a few contain honey or dairy.
Some safe options include the Country Rustic Sourdough, Artisan Ciabatta, French Baguette, Classic Sourdough, and Black Pepper Focaccia, which are labeled vegetarian.
Meat Substitution
You can request that your server replace the meat item in your order with avocado. There is no extra charge as long as the dish does not already contain avocado.
Arnold Palmer
Take advantage of Panera's unlimited refills and fill half a small cup with iced tea and half lemonade. Kick it up by adding a specialty iced tea instead of plain.
Honey
When ordering an apple as your side, ask for a side of honey. You can use it with other Panera foods and slather it on any fruit upgrade or buttered bread item.
