It's not always breakfast time at Panera Bread.
According to a Quora post from Panera Bread associate Julissa Gonzalez, breakfast hours may vary between different restaurants.
"Primarily, we stop serving breakfast between 10:30 and 11 a.m.," she wrote. "Once 11 a.m. hits, we start serving all of the soups. Soups are unavailable before 11 a.m. because breakfast is being served still."
"Breakfast serving hours will vary depending on location, demand, and possibly whether or not the Panera in question is a franchise or corporate location," associate trainer Derek Bedell wrote.
"The Panera I worked at did have a designated breakfast time and a designated lunch time, but, from other posts I have seen on here, that might not be the case for all of them," former associate Emily Carver wrote on Quora. "We opened at 6 a.m. and we served breakfast only until 10:30 a.m., and at that time we started transitioning into lunch and stopped selling breakfast."
