Panera Bread, founded in 1987 by Ken Rosenthal in Kirkwood, Missouri, originally as The St. Louis Bread Company, has grown into a renowned chain of bakery-café fast casual restaurants in the United States and Canada. Known for its artisan breads, soups, salads, and sandwiches, Panera became a symbol of the “fast casual” dining experience, blending quick service with a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The company, which was acquired by JAB Holding Company in 2017, emphasizes clean ingredients and a transparent menu to cater to a wide range of dietary preferences and health-conscious customers.
In terms of a gluten-free menu, Panera Bread offers a selection of items that do not contain gluten-containing ingredients, such as salads without croutons, soups, and some sides; however, it does not operate gluten-free kitchens. Thus, while there are options available, the risk of cross-contamination means these offerings may not be suitable for individuals with celiac disease or severe gluten intolerance.
