Panera Bread

Panera Bread is one of the easiest/healthiest places I can take my family while we are out and about.  I like that they list the calories for each meal on their reader board.  The prices are reasonable and there is something on the menu that everyone like.  My favorite thing is they offer real food for kids.  Turkey sandwich, grill cheese or mac & cheese.  The side for the kids menu is Horizon yogurt tubs.  The price is between $4-$5.  My son also loves the chicken noodle soup.  My personal indulgence is a bagel and flavored cream cheese.

Thinks I like:

• Free WiFi
• Comfortable seating
• Yummy bakery goods
• Water glasses available with out asking

Thinks I would like to see:

• Option for fresh fruit on the kids menu

Pickle Time Deli

Pickle time is a burger joint in Duvall and Everett. They also offer wraps.  My family and I went to the one in Duvall, Wa during our day of Geocaching. The first thing you notice when you come in is all the pickle drawings hung on the wall.  It really fun to see all the cartoons people have dawn.  The very nice lady at the counter encourage us to draw our own while we wait for food.  David and I ordered burgers.  I got the blue cheese burger and David ordered the Texas burger.  My son got chicken nuggets, fries and a giant pickle.  My burger was super tasty and the fried were really great.  I can tell they use frozen fries, but they keep their oil fresh so the fries were not greasy.  My son's chicken nugget were nothing special,  probably Foster Farms frozen nuggets but my son liked them.
This seems to be a local franchise.  The Everett location has its own website and the menu is similar to the Duvall location. Duvall location does not have its own site, but it has a yelp page.
