Fantastic place to stop for lunch right outside Chicago and right off 65. Love the Mediterranean grain salad - so delicious! Lovely outdoor patio.

Consistent as always. We stopped here on our way home after attending a wedding in North Chicago. Wanted to beat the terrible traffic through the city, so left real early, no breakfast. The establishment was very welcoming, friendly, prompt and clean.

I stopped by this Panera Bread in Merrillville to refresh ourselves after a long drive from Indianapolis back home to Aurora. It was the perfect place to take a break. The atmosphere was clean and relaxing, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. It gave us a chance to sit down, recharge, and enjoy a quick bite. The food was fresh, though a bit on the pricey side for the portion. Overall, a great stop if you need a comfortable place to rest during a long drive.
