About Panera Bread
You will find Panera Bread at 2161 Badger Dr in Hudson, 0.8 mi south of the Hudson city center. Besides being an artisan bread bakery, it is also listed as bakery café.
It is one of 10 bakeries and sweet shops we list in Hudson — about one per 1,503 people living in the city. If you want to compare, Katie Mae's Cakery sits 0.3 mi from here.
We have not been able to confirm a full weekly schedule for Panera Bread yet, so calling ahead at (715) 245-4399 is the safest bet. Bakeries often sell out of popular items by early afternoon.
Good to know: takeout, delivery, and a drive-through are available. The brand runs 1,910 locations we track across the country.
Panera traces its roots to the St. Louis Bread Company, which opened in Kirkwood, Missouri, in 1987; Au Bon Pain acquired it in 1993 and developed it into the Panera Bread concept, and some St. Louis-area cafes still carry the original name. The fast-casual chain is known for its Broccoli Cheddar Soup in a sourdough bread bowl, toasted sandwiches, salads and bakery items like the Cinnamon Crunch Bagel.
