Caramel Latte — Panera Bread

Is the Caramel Latte a good deal?

At a typical $5.29, the Caramel Latte at Panera Bread gives you 320 calories and 9g of protein — 1.7g of protein and 60 calories for every dollar you spend. That earns it a value score of 40/100, which ranks it #699 of the 1023 comparable items we've priced across every chain (the typical comparable item returns about 2.8g of protein per dollar).

On the numbers it's an unremarkable value pick in its category. Worth noting, though — it carries a lot of sugar (44g). If you want more for your money elsewhere on our value rankings, 3 Tacos al Carbon Combo at El Pollo Loco scores higher (89/100 value, $6.99).
