I consumed a wide variety of items prepared at Panera Mineola three times a day for 42 consecutive days, excluding Easter Sunday 2020...it did NOT get boring! LOL
My favorites?
Spinach & Artichoke Soufflé
Asiago Bagel
Vanilla Cinnamon Roll
Warm Chocolate Chip Cookie
Cream of Chicken & Wild Rice Soup
Autumn Squash Soup w/ toasted pumpkin seeds, when in season
Tuna Salad with avocado, tomatoes, red onions and American cheese on Focaccia
Roasted Turkey Avocado BLT
ANYTHING with Avocado, tomatoes, red onions and bacon
Manager's Adrian and Anthony, I call them "The A Team", do their best to provide a positive and consistent experience for both in-store Guests and recipients of custom Catering off-site.
If dining in OR picking up, I strongly recommend cutting the robotic and mundane Analog order line by submitting accurate PREPAID Rapid Pickup orders at your own pace and on your terms. Within seconds of submitting, your order pops up on the screen on the line packaged with everything needed to consume ANYWHERE (including plastic utensils and more than one napkin), except on Jet Blue...lol
Select Rapid Pickup @ PaneraBread.com or on Panera Bread App to avoid listening to cashier(s) repeatedly barking out "do you have a Panera Card" and "Apple, Bread or Chips" to each Guest that doesn't know or understand it's a Side offered w/ EACH Item and observing MyPanera Members holding up the line that may never get the drill.
Curbside has always been hit or miss, so I prefer to park and head directly to the Rapid Pickup bin. Although, Curbside should be respected more because it IS a essential service for the handicapped and individuals with a infant/dog in the car, etc.
I ONLY wish when I order a large green tea w/ no ice or scroll down to Choose Diet Pepsi as a Flavor, I didn't have to carry everything to the opposite side of dining room near the bathrooms to fill a empty cup.
Last summer up until Labor Day, EACH dollar of VALUE purchased or added to a plastic or e Panera Gift Card @ PaneraBread.com cost $0.80. What a great way for Panera to share the love with others or for individuals on a fixed income and regular customers that tell their friends and visit more often. Hope Panera is planning to offer it again this summer???
For accurate Nutritional Information on each item, except Kids Mac & Cheese, Panera App is ONLY resource, and nobody asks for a Panera Card and if you want apple, bread or chips...lol
If navigating, enter 520 Jericho Tpk 11501 and select GO. Otherwise, Cafe is in a TD Bank strip mall, with ample parking, on NE corner of Jericho Tpk and Herricks Rd.
If you enjoy unlimited hot or iced Coffee, hot Tea, becoming a MyPanera+Coffee subscriber is a no-brainer. Cannot beat $8.99 monthly price and it's FREE for the first 3 months, except for a active subscriber.
This Cafe also produces, and delivers, large orders that serve any number of people. Since pandemic, Box Lunches that come with kettle chips and a chocolate chip cookie are the most requested, although the Large Green Goddess Salad w/ Chicken that serves like 8 people is the best bang for the buck, in my opinion. Note: Green Goddess and Lime Chili dressings are made from scratch in-store.
Bagel, pastry and brownie packs or hot egg sandwiches and egg soufflés (eggs served before 11am) coupled with 10 cup Hot Beverage of your choice Tote is perfect choice for a morning or afternoon meeting, presentation, gathering or event.
Cafe routinely delivers large orders to front-line HEROES @ LIJ, Cohen Children's Hospital, North Shore University Medical Center and NYU Langone, formerly Winthrop, as well as to medical office workers, business meetings & events, to a family grieving at area Funeral Home, to a Veterinarian office that saved Muffie's life, to Jones Beach to feed guests of Sponsor of fundraising walks on the boardwalk, etc., 7 days a week.
