Panera Bread is continuing its Texas expansion with two new locations opening in San Antonio, marking the ninth and tenth Panera restaurants in the Alamo City. The first location, at 4343 Medical Drive, officially opened its doors on October 29, bringing its fresh-made bakery items, signature sandwiches, and fast-casual dining experience to the Medical Center area. The second location, at 10610 Culebra Road, is set to open on November 15, providing additional convenience for San Antonio’s growing demand for healthy, high-quality options in a relaxed cafe setting.
Since entering the San Antonio market in 2007, the St. Louis-based chain has become a staple for local diners seeking a variety of salads, soups, sandwiches, and baked goods. “We are excited to grow our presence in this wonderful community and look forward to delivering the great tasting food and impeccable service our Texas guests have come to expect from Panera," shared area Operating Partner Brandon Willis.
Following a recent expansion into the Rio Grande Valley, the two new San Antonio locations reflect Panera Bread’s commitment to meeting the dining needs of Texas communities, offering a comfortable spot for breakfast, lunch, or casual dinner.
