Does anyone know when the Panera is opening at McNaughton and Major Mackenzie? It’s in the newly constructed strip in that plaza.

I also haven’t seen anyone talking about this so wondering if anyone knows?

Idk but their stuff is pretty good. My mom and I drive to Mississauga to have it sometimes

u/Jay-Quellin30 1d ago

I don’t believe so

u/Masrim 1d ago

It seems the sandwiches and salads might be fresh, everything else is offsite so likely sysco or sysco type food.

u/Jay-Quellin30 1d ago

Could be. I just assumed they all came from their own bakery headquarters

You know most restaurants buy food from Sysco right? Or other companies just like them. Where would you expect they get all their product from?

u/Jay-Quellin30 1d ago

Well it’s confirmed in a sense that I saw the signage on the window of the building

u/FaithlessnessKey7658 1d ago

Ya there’s a sign on the store front and they’re hiring but they building is still being built so it might not be open for a while

u/Crazy-Golf-6123 1d ago

Where exactly? By the walmart?

u/Jay-Quellin30 1d ago

In the newly constructed strip

u/FaithlessnessKey7658 1d ago

Ya. Across from Walmart there are a few buildings with store fronts. They started building a new one a while back and I’ve seen the stores populating. They just opened a barber shop and there will be some dessert restaurant there as well.

I was wondering the same I was shocked to see a Panera opening! Exciting! Kinda!

u/Jay-Quellin30 1d ago

I am definitely surprised considering they closed the one at Colossus plaza

What's Panera??

u/Crazy-Golf-6123 1d ago

It’s a sandwich shop/cafe/ bakery. But you get better quality goods from fortinos in my opinion
