According to the website, Panera has another Oakland location on Terrace Street and eight remaining locations in the Pittsburgh area:

• The Waterworks near Aspinwall.

• Penn Center in Wilkins.

• Settlers Ridge and Montour Church Place in Robinson.

• Greentree Road Shops in Green Tree.

• Shadyside Shops in Shadyside.

• McCandless Crossing in McCandless.

• Caste Village in Whitehall.

Earlier this year, Panera closed another Oakland location on the Boulevard of the Allies to clear the site for a University of Pittsburgh and Radnor Property Group housing and retail redevelopment project.

Another Panera location at the Pittsburgh Mills mall shut down in June.
