Panera Breakfast Menu with Prices & Calories (2026)
Panera’s breakfast runs from early morning until 10:30 a.m. at most cafés: toasted bagel stacks, ciabatta and croissant egg sandwiches, baked soufflés and oatmeal — all baked in-house. Prices and calories below are checked against Panera’s official nutrition guide.
Panera breakfast hours

Breakfast hours: what ends at 10:30
Hot breakfast at Panera is a morning-only menu. The egg sandwiches and soufflés come off the line at around 10:30 a.m. in most cafés, while bagels, muffins and the rest of the bakery case stay available all day. If you are ordering after mid-morning, plan on a bagel with cream cheese or a pastry rather than a hot sandwich.
Light starts vs hearty starts
- Lightest hot option: the Steel Cut Oatmeal with Strawberries & Pecans — 330 Cal and only 8g of protein, a slow-burn start rather than a protein hit.
- Lightest sandwich: the Avocado, Egg White & Spinach at 350 Cal with 15g of protein — the best balance on this page.
- Most protein: the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich at 22–23g (the calorie range of 470–550 Cal depends on the bread you choose).
- Most indulgent: the Spinach & Bacon Soufflé at 550 Cal — baked, rich and closer to brunch than breakfast.
Everything here pairs with the coffee and tea list on the drinks menu, and the bagels are priced individually on the bakery page.

Good to know before you order breakfast
Panera breakfast is a morning menu. Most cafes stop serving it at 10:30 a.m., and popular items can run out before that, so ordering ahead in the app is the safest move if you want a specific sandwich. The range is small but covers both directions: hot egg sandwiches and baked souffles at the filling end, and lighter options like the Avocado, Egg White & Spinach sandwich (350 calories) at the other.
If protein is the goal, the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich leads the menu at 22-23g. If you are watching calories, the Steel Cut Oatmeal (330) and the egg-white sandwich (350) are the two lightest hot options. Prices in the table are typical ranges seen across US cafes; your local cafe may price slightly higher or lower, and Panera’s own menu is always the final word.
