The Best Panera Bread I've Visited So Far
WOW. I like Panera Bread before, but today I found one that is the nicest Panera Bread Cafe and Restaurant I've ever been to to date.
Located off Route 78 in Martinsville, NJ at 100 Marketplace, Martinsville, NJ, this Panera is one of the anchor stores in a brand new shopping center.
The Panera Bread is very spacious, has a fireplace and of course free WiFi. They even have internet terminals at the back of the store for you to use free if you don't have your laptop with you.
In the mornings, it was really quite, so I got a solid hour of work done with literally just 3 customers in the whole store. At about 11am, people start to file in for lunch. There's a bunch of corporate campus right around the shopping center, and it looked like a lot of those corporate workers coming in groups to work.
As usual, there were a bunch of pharmaceutical rep-type looking people that were in the store as well with their laptops set-up head to head as if they're playing battleship. I've noticed a lot of drug reps hanging out at various Panera Bread's I've been to. It's the free wifi + coffee or food + meeting place with other reps that draws them probably since they don't have their own offices and basically live out of their cars.
Most other Panera's I've been to in the morning have their own little groups of senior citizens or "moms" that hang out as part of their normal routine, but this location either is so new that it hasn't been found yet, or there aren't that many of these types in the area (probably the former vs. the latter reason).
Anyway, it sure was pleasant to sit down with coffee and log onto the net hassle-free (vs. Starbucks which is free too now, but makes you go through an extra steps of setting up an account, rewards account, and logging in each time).
