Panera Finally Makes Speed of Service a Priority

As a consumer, two chains I gave up on long ago are Five Guy's and Panera. I refuse to 
stand in line to order and then stand around for five - ten minutes waiting for my food. 
With recent changes, maybe Panera  deserves another visit. Panera is adding drive-thrus where possible but given the size of their menu - that's going to be a dog slow drive-thru! 

Not a threat to QSRs with well run drive-thrus.
