Crafting distinctively delicious food starts early morning in Au Bon Pain cafe. While our bakers line the shelves with hot, freshly baked pastries, muffins, bagels and scones, other team members brew our rich coffee and espresso blends from the highest-quality Arabica beans, set up the health smart oatmeal bar, and prepare dozens of fresh eggs for nourishing breakfast sandwiches. Their passion for quality and freshness continues throughout the day with mouthwatering sandwiches and wraps served on freshly baked breads; hearty soups, stews and macaroni and cheese; enticing salads topped with our signature dressings; and assortments of cut and whole fresh fruit; cheese and crackers; energy bars; nuts; yogurt and indulgent cupcakes, cookies and brownies.
