Panera offers a few more things like bagels and breads. But, they are the same type of food.

I've already I can't compare it to ABC because I have never been. RIF.

Call them subs or sandwiches on artisan bread, the Paneras here are just haughty-taughty sandwich shops. So, don't tell me it's not a good comparison.
Whoa, sister, slow your roll. First of all, I never said "totally" different, just different. A toasted sub is different than a panini. You're correct that they both serve sandwiches, soups, salads. BUT, I don't go to Quiznos when I feel like a caesar salad, I go to ABC. When I want a toasted turkey sub, I don't go to Panera, I go to Quiznos or Firehouse. They are different restaurants, like it or lump it. Similar, but not the same. AND, the thread wasn't about Quiznos. It was a Panera vs ABC thread since these two are almost idential in menu choices - AND they offer coffees and pastries and the like. Quiznos, Subway, etc do not. Yet another difference you failed to mention. And I will tell you, it's not a good comparison for the reasons I just stated. Agree to disagree...
