Guasaca Competitors

Our first bakery-cafe opened in 1987, founded with a secret sourdough starter and the belief that the best part of bread is sharing it. That vision led to the invention of the Fast Casual category with Panera at the forefront, centered around our delicious menu of chef-curated recipes that are crafted with care by our team members. We make food that we are proud to serve our own families, from crave-worthy soups, salads and sandwiches to mac & cheese and sweets. Each recipe is filled with ingredients we feel good about and none of those we don't because we are committed to serving our guests food that feels good in the moment and long after. While our company is now more than 2,200 bakery-cafes strong, our values and belief in the lasting power of a great meal remain as strong as ever. Nothing beats breaking bread together. We believe in serving delicious, freshly prepared food made with carefully selected ingredients that we are proud to serve our own families. Our menu, crafted by chefs and bakers, features classic, comforting dishes, each with an intriguing twist. We’re also focused on improving quality and convenience. With investments in technology and operations, we offer omni-channel access to your Panera favorites – like mobile ordering, catering, and Rapid Pick-Up® for to-go orders, Curbside pick-up and delivery – all designed to make things easier for our guests.

Getting our start in 1995, QDOBA Mexican Eats now has more than 740 restaurants in the U.S. and Canada. While our footprint has grown tremendously in the last two decades, we’ve always stayed true to our brand promise: bringing flavor to people’s lives. We do this by ensuring every ingredient that goes into our guests’ burritos, tacos, salads, nachos, bowls, and quesadillas is full of flavor. Our most important ingredient to our success, though, is our people. We look for team members that are not only talented, creative and optimistic, but are willing to stay true to themselves. We encourage them to celebrate their uniqueness and express, what we like to call, their flavor. That’s because, we believe when everyone’s flavor is united, a truly great brand is possible. When we’re not busy working on the next great QDOBA dish, we’re most likely participating in some office fun. From free snacks and surprise catered lunches to burrito rolling competitions and impromptu dance parties, no day at our headquarters is dull. QDOBA employees can also expect mentoring programs, community involvement opportunities and tuition reimbursement. Think you have what it takes?
