Hot coffee averages $3.15 across the 2,237 cafes that price it, so the subscription is covered by your 5th cup of the month.
Panera pushes codes through the app, email and your MyPanera account: buy-one-get-one, percent off an order, and free item offers.

OpenHow the MyPanera birthday reward works, what qualifies, and how to claim it.
Four ways to find out what is left on a Panera Bread or Saint Louis Bread Co. card. No expiry date and no inactivity fee, so an old card still holds its full value.
Enter the 19-digit number and 8-digit PIN. Takes about a minute.
Add the card once and the balance shows every time you open it.
A cashier can check it in seconds, even if the PIN has worn off.
Guest support reads it back to you. The fallback for damaged cards.
We are an independent guide and cannot look up a balance. Check it only through Panera's own website, app or cafes, never on a third-party form.
Prices, nutrition, deals and ordering, answered from our own cafe data where there is a number to give.
It depends entirely on what you order: from about $1.46 a head for bagels and coffee to about $12.01 a head for a sandwich spread, priced from our own reading of US cafe menus. Trays work out cheaper per person than individual boxed lunches because you buy by the tray. Our catering guide prices each option per head.
Yes. MyPanera is free to join. Since 19 August 2026 it earns 10 points per dollar, redeemable at 250 points for a bakery item or 2,000 for an entree, and members get a reward during their birthday month. Offers appear in the Rewards tab of the app rather than on a fixed schedule.
At 14.99 per month, the Sip Club covers unlimited hot coffee, iced tea, lemonade and fountain drinks every 2 hours at any Panera location. Hot coffee averages $3.15 across the 2,237 cafes we have a price for, so the subscription is covered by your 5th cup of the month and everything after that is free.
Counting food rather than drinks, the lightest things on the menu are Fruit Cup at 60 calories, Apple at 80 calories, Black Bean Soup at 90 calories. 49 of the 125 food items in our menu tables come in under 400 calories. Across the whole catalogue we hold a calorie count for 427 of 456 items, and the nutrition page lists them.
Yes. The Panera app and website offer Rapid Pick-Up, where your order is ready on a labelled shelf when you arrive rather than waiting at the counter. Pickup times and any delivery fee are shown before you pay, and both are set by the cafe rather than nationally.
About half do. Counting every cafe in our 2026 snapshot, 1,159 of 2,239 have a drive-thru lane, which is 52 percent. Standalone suburban cafes usually have one; mall, hospital and downtown sites are typically walk-in only. Check your own cafe in the Panera app before you drive over.
Closing time is set by each cafe rather than nationally, and sites inside malls, hospitals, airports and university campuses follow their building's hours. Panera publishes no single timetable, so check the Panera app for your cafe, or ring it, before a late visit.
Opening time is set by each cafe rather than nationally, and sites inside airports, malls and campuses follow their building. The Panera app shows the hours your cafe files, which is the quickest way to be sure.
Cafes commonly close on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Easter is mixed: some cafes close and others shorten their hours. Christmas Eve and New Year's Day are usually open on shortened hours. None of this is set nationally, so check the Panera app or ring your cafe before travelling.
Panera operates 2,239 bakery-cafes across 48 states and Washington D.C. Coverage is uneven: Florida and California have the most, Wyoming has a single cafe, and there are none at all in Hawaii.
Yes, from most cafes. 96 percent of the 2,239 cafes in our snapshot have delivery enabled. Order through the Panera app or website and the fee is added at checkout. Third-party platforms such as DoorDash and Uber Eats also carry Panera, though their menu prices are usually marked up above what the cafe charges.
Breakfast is served from opening, and each cafe sets when its hot breakfast menu ends, so check the Panera app for yours. The breakfast menu covers egg souffles, bagels, oatmeal and breakfast sandwiches.
