Panera Bread lists 223 menu items across twelve sections on its allergen menu. Panera Bread orders the sections from bagels and bakery to drinks and grab-and-go wraps. Each item shows Yes, May Contain or an empty cell under eight allergen columns. Wheat and milk dominate the Yes marks, while sesame dominates the May Contain marks.

Panera Bread Allergen Menu Item by Item
The Panera Bread allergen menu covers 223 items across twelve sections, from bagels and bakery to drinks and grab-and-go wraps. Wheat and milk turn up more than any other allergen in the Yes columns. The guide adds that the Wheat column also identifies gluten sources. Full pricing lives on a separate page, since this one tracks only what each item contains.

Dairy-Free Options at Panera Bread
Sixty of the 223 items declare no milk, either as Yes or as May Contain. Drinks supply nineteen of them, and sauces and dressings supply thirteen. Eight of the ten breads qualify, along with five breakfast items, four salad or stuffer rows and four sandwich entries.
Milk appears as a May Contain entry on seven items, and those seven stay out of the count. Every kids item and 156 items in all declare milk outright.
Ordering Gluten-Free at Panera Bread
Eighty-four of the 223 items leave the Wheat cell empty, and the guide uses that column to identify gluten sources as well as wheat. Drinks supply forty-two of them and sauces and dressings supply nineteen. Six salad or stuffer rows, six breakfast items and eleven entries from the other sections make up the rest.
Nine items list wheat as May Contain and stay out of the count, eight drinks and Farmhouse Crunch Salad among them. Panera Bread notes that many products may contact common allergens during production, so an empty Wheat cell is not a promise of gluten-free preparation.
Cross-Contact and Shared Equipment at Panera Bread
The Panera Bread guide states that many of its products may come into contact with common allergens during production and preparation. Sandwich entries describe the default bread, and a changed bread or any other customization may add an allergen. Panera Bread leaves highly refined oil from allergenic sources out of the grid.
Panera Bread points to cafe-specific ingredient statements on its website, under the See All Ingredients button on each item. Telling a team member about a serious allergy covers what a printed grid cannot. No bakery-cafe kitchen can promise a plate completely free of contact with any allergen.
