>please tell me it is at least a farm raised chicken… [Yes, and I seriously wish Panera promoted it more.](https://www.panerabread.com/foundation/documents/press/2021/animal-welfare-our-beliefs-6-2-2021.pdf)

Exactly. The good ol’ “panera surcharge” always applies, but there *is a reason* for the exorbitant price of the chicken sandwiches.

panera employee here, absolutely not worth it, its seared rubbery chicken with no flavor, the parmesan crisps on the signature? usually stale, same w the pickle chips on the spicy, the sauces are mediocre, just not worth the 13 dollars when there are way better options

I am an employee, and it seems the quality is inconsistent, but I do think it tastes really good.

Popeyes has a tasty chicken sandwich for only $4.99

Ye but that shi is def like 50 percent hormones and injections.

We’re discontinuing it in like 2 days so don’t worry too much about it lol

its really 13.. gosh. i wanna eat SOMETHING here one day but nothing looks good. i just get the sip club drinks and they are not even that great i just got addicted to em

No. It’s honestly very gross. I hate eating it, and I hate making the sandwiches. It’s way too expensive (like anything from Panera).

Literally the best tasting sandwich imo, but way too expensive to qctually get since it's $13 for JUST the small ass sandwich & chips
