American fast casual restaurant chain Panera Bread has introduced its breakfast delivery service in 231 cities and towns across the country.

Around 381 cafes across participating locations, including select cafes in Chicago, Dallas, Nashville, St. Louis and Minneapolis, are offering the service.

The restaurant chain also plans to expand the breakfast delivery service to an additional 30 cafes by the end of this year.

“The convenience of our digital properties and our great service provide a better experience for wholesome food, delivered any time of day.”

Panera CEO Blaine Hurst said: “Since we launched Panera delivery, guests have been asking ‘what about breakfast?’ We’re all looking for an easier way to get a better breakfast as we start our day.

“Panera is uniquely suited to meet this need, the convenience of our digital properties and our great service provide a better experience for wholesome food, delivered any time of day.”
