Giving Panera Bread a try again it has been a while. I am glad we went I ordered the half sandwich and soup. The limited time Beef Dipper sandwich it was very good. The Au Ju was the onion soup. I had the potato soup it was good but a little thin. Also, great potato chips. The sandwich had plenty of meat that is a must for me since the price is high. We went back a few weeks later and I tried the Toasted Italiano. Very good as well. I like my sandwich toasted. This time I tried the chili it I was a good choice. I also had a free cookie yummy. I got the cookie by joining their app. This location is nice and clean parking is in the back so a little walk. Good service and food was made fresh and hot. read more

Supremely disappointed. I stopped by Panera because it was a practice night and I didn't want to cook and I haven't been in a long time. I ordered food for me and my daughter. While they were very sweet the order took insanely long for me being the only one in the drive thru. I watched as multiple people "made my order" only to wait even longer because they forgot to bring it to me. Already irritated because somehow my order needed up to be $40!? Absolutely absurd but we were hungry and wanted to go home. When I got home I saw that my salad the ginger Asian salad I was very excited to try was nothing more then lettuce flakes or chicken and a few wontons. Nothing else. This is insane considering how much I paid and no receipt provided. I will very much say I will never be going back there again. read more

I love getting the panera special, the soup and sandwich combo. My favorite soup is the broccoli cheddar soup. Over time I also had their bread bowls which can be very filling. Lets not forgot their awesome selection of pastries and bagels. Every now and then we will get breakfast pastries from panera at work and they are very yummy. read more

Always love Panera. Today I Tried the beef ciabatta dipper. It was really good. The onion dip was so flavorful. The sandwich was all the things: cheesy, warm, crunchy, lots of flavor. I would def get it again! I always like to grab something sweet when I'm at Panera. Today the chocolate cheesecake bites caught my eye. These were not good. They were dry and didn't tasted good at all. Very disappointed in these, since Panera has some of the best baked goods! I would not get these ever again. Other than that, my meal was enjoyable. read more

Panera has gotten rid of most everything good on the menu... and what they do have for the most part lasts luster. Small portions, Large prices. Store was clean for the most part, drink area was sticky and filthy. Cherry Pastry was delicious, along with their papaya green tea and Mac and Cheese! The mediterranean greens and grains salad was sub par. Would rather just get the greek salad. They have cut costs majorly and it's showing. Service was good and quick. read more

Panera Bread - Salad Near Me - Arlington, Texas

My first time in a Panera bread. I ordered and no one told me I needed to pick up at a different counter. I stood there waiting right by the counter I ordered from and I stood there for a long time. I was about to walk out because of how long it was taking, but I had already paid. None of the employees told me my food was ready or told me I was waiting in the ring place. I finally flagged someone down and asked and they said my food had been ready for a while!! And sitting at the other counter that no one told me about. I waited for 20 min when my food was already done. They should have noticed me and helped me be in the correct place. It's wasn't even busy in there. read more

I went there on the way to the mall and the customer service was AMAZING, the lady helped me figure out what i wanted to eat by me just telling her what i liked! we also got a pick two and forgot to ask for chips instesd of bread and they swapped it no charge! The ladies checked up on us to see how we were doing and It was awesome! Thank you panera on COOPER! best one by far read more

Panera can do no wrong in my eyes. People complain about the prices, but for the quality of ingredients I'll pay extra. I stopped in on this particular visit to redeem my daily drink from the Unlimited subscription and to redeem my free birthday pastry. Ordering on the app is always super simple and the staff is prompt with bringing your food out curbside. They were out of the pecan twist so they brought out two lemon drop cookies to compensate. Entire process was about 4 minutes even on a Saturday. Panera, you're alright with me. No pic but the Strawberry Mint Tea is great! read more

This is one of my family's top favorite restaurants. They have a great selection of healthy options and I love trying their new menu items when they become available. We order delivery about once a week and the food is always fresh and the right temperature. If an item is no longer available, I get notified to make another selection. Awesome customer service. When dining in, the restaurant is bright and clean, and the team is always friendly and strive to ensure our order is always correct. read more

I never really review major chains because the food is typically the same no matter where you are. But the service at this location deserves a shout-out. There must've been at least a hundred people who came here at the same time, in between VNL matches. This crew handled the crowd with such professionalism, even smiling as people kept asking where their order was (when there's a board posting orders in the sequence they were being filled). My order was perfect; and I had to ask for no nuts due to allergy, in addition to being tasty and filling. Would come back here in a heartbeat. read more

I ordered a bowl of broccoli and cheddar soup to go with a side of the French baguette. My order did not take long to fill and picked it up shortly. I realized that it's better to park at the lot next to the drive thru otherwise you have to use the drive thru to get out or leave the wrong way. When I got there I noticed the bakery had a pumpkin muffin, so I picked one up. The soup was simple but filled with cheesy goodness. The pumpkin muffin was crisp and full of flavor. read more

Panera has changed a little bit post-Covid, but this location seems to still be doing well. The drive thru line was full, moving quick, and cafe was well attended also. It wasn't quick self-ordering at the kiosks inside. I was behind two people who weren't sure how to pay with their cards. They didn't have staff visible at the counter, but I should have walked over and tried that for quicker ordering. After I was able to order, my food was quick! My last visit to a Panera (on University Dr in Ft Worth), it took us a full 15-20mins to get our order. This Arlington location must have had a full kitchen staff and pushed out orders quick and efficiently. My food was good, as Panera usually is, and I'll likely come back to this location. The soup and salad at Panera is always a favorite of mine! read more

Gotta love Panera! The rapid pickup has been so quick and convenient time and time again! You don't even have to talk to anyone. Just find the bag with your last name on it on their "rapid pick-up shelf" and go! So simple and really helps when you're in a rush! You really can't go wrong with anything on their menu. Their hasn't been one item I've tried that I wouldn't get again. And trust me, I've tried A LOT of their food. read more

Jayden took care of our order tonight and was very helpful showing us ways we could save. She also was overall very sweet and kind.

The lawsuits costs for the caffeinated drinks must be wreaking havoc on Panera's bottom line. To make it work, they are cutting costs across the board and it shows. Their sandwiches are just sad now. Their "enhanced" updates include cold pieces of cheese and a disappointing replacement for the retired Turkey Avocado BLT. This new rubber chicken sandwich is a fail. It tasted like Faux chicken. It looks like lab made meat. The texture and its resistance to being heated in the microwave are a tell. The TA-BLT was on sourdough. This replacement sandwich is on white bread sliced so thin, you can see through it. The worst part was how soggy some of it was because of the condiments and veggie juices. The sandwich at least had some flavor. Their salads are a pitiful portion. 11.00 for 1/2 of what the portion size was in the past. Smaller containers, faux meat, thin soggy bread and the bill was $50.00 and that was with a promo! I know time are hard for businesses and food prices make it even that more challenging, but FR? They must think that true lovers of the old Panera won't notice that we get less for our money and what we do get isn't appetizing. Another one bites the dust. That was my last light bill money for a meal that ended up in the trash. McAllisters is consistently on point and I need to just accept that Panera is going the way of Macaroni Grill and TGIFs. I didn't get the million dollar cookies with this order because they taste like grocery store brands to me now. Overly processed and no longer fresh and made with the best ingredients. Save your money and your palate. read more

Panera Bread - Happy our Panera didn't disappoint - Salad Near Me - Arlington, Texas

This is my home base Panera. My HQ for any quick fix of Panera when I'm by my house. We love to come here for a healthy quick dinner or a lunch. I've never had any major issues with this Panera, so we keep coming back. Those kiosks know me on a first name basis because I go there so much. Great selection of pastries, soups, sandwiches, etc. I tried their new soba dish recently as well (it was decent for a place like this). Love their Pick 2 always and our food always comes out so fast. Great place to study or have a quiet meal to yourself since there are booths with outlets. read more

Food was decent except for the fact my bun on my sandwich was completely cold and the chicken was somewhat warm, but it seems they just totally neglected to even try to warm or toast the bun. Then on top of that the apple served with my meal was rotten on the inside. So I would like this meal a lot more if the food was more evenly warmed and the apple wasn't rotten. read more

Panera as a whole continues to go downhill and this location is definitely bottom of the barrel. They are unable to get a simple order of an untoasted bagel correct. The manager here does nor even care about customer satisfaction either so don't expect any problems to be fixed. Save your money and go elsewhere. read more

Everything all the way up until the food pick up went well. The first thing that happened was my buzzer went off, I went up to get my order. Only half of my Pick 2 was ready. No worries, it'll be coming up in a few seconds, right? Nope. It took me about 30 seconds of standing there looking like an idiot at the pickup line efore finally it came. A second issue. The mac and cheese I ordered came out cold. I don't mean warmish, when most people say "cold". I mean it's the coldest thing I've I forgotten that's supposed to be hot, from any restaurant, in the history of me going to any restaurant. Bear in mind that I was to eat my mac and cheese FIRST, so it's not like I ate the sandwich first and then 5 minutes later ate the mac and cheese (not that it wouldn't even get that cold because it was below room temperature!). I took it back to the order pick up area, one of the line employees asked what was wrong, I told her. I believe she may have given me a token apology before taking it back. Waited a good four, maybe five minutes, so I go back up to the line to check on what's taking so long. Pretty much when I got up there, the shift supervisor was there and the mac and cheese I could see was coming out, so she handed it over to me. I complain that my sandwich was now cold, because I didn't want to eat the sandwich without my mac and cheese. She then asked if I wanted it repeated, too. At that point, I just didn't want to deal with anyone else there, so I said, "No". She said, "Okay". It's not over. Taking a bite of the mac and cheese left my mouth scolded. It seems they went too far the other direction and overheated it. Literally, tongue is now burnt and has the bumps on it because it was he did so high or so long in the microwave. My tongue doesn't burn any easier than anybody else's and normally this never happens. Needless to say, aside from getting freebies, I won't ever be coming to this location again. read more

I'm a regular customer here. I am a rewards member as well. I also used to work for Panera years ago and at this location. So I was a bit upset tonight because I ordered a Frontega Chicken Sandwich and Bowl of Chicken noodle soup. The soup was fine, however I was not happy with the sandwich. Like I said, I used to work here so I know how everything should be prepared. And so I know that the frontega chicken always comes on ciabatta bread. If the bread runs out, the employees are supposed to inform the customer and ask them which substitution bread they would like instead. I wasn't informed about anything and was very upset when I unwrapped my sandwich and it was on regular wheat bread. I am a regular customer and spend so much money at panera and I was upset because I was expecting something and received something entirely different. I was starving and this was just not up to par. I never leave bad reviews either, but I really just had to this time. The food is usually good but today was terrible. I know that after the restaurant closes, they donate the leftover bread at night. But this is only after they are closed. It felt like they threw the bread away already and picked through the left overs to put my sandwich together. It was very sloppy and not toasted properly. 0/10‼ read more

Fun fact, this place does a really cool program where churches and non profits can get the leftover bread. Pretty cool. I don't know all the details, but I know it exists. I enjoy going to this location to study (see my Tip regarding outlets). It is generally quiet, with ample space. I appreciate the view overlooking Cooper Street. On a sunny day, it's nice. The majority of the parking is in the back, though if you are lucky you can steal one up front. The spaces are nice and wide too. I am a bit obsessive about not getting my baby door dinged, so this is a BIG PLUS. The food has always been good for me at this location, and the staff has been kind when I engage them. Generally, they are a bit more disconnected than at most other locations. This place has the self service kiosk system perfected. It's located well, always has buzzers and staff doesn't aggrevate you. Occassionally they come by with samples. Gotta love that. read more

I stopped in to Panera drive up window and ordered a delicious breakfast wrap and coffee plus a loaf of their Sourdough. The service was excellent and the food was also. I'd stop by there anytime; their product is all good. And they're the only one thus far doing Healthy and Wholesome food and bread. Don't listen to the nay-sayers and nit-pickers, go in and try T H E I R fare, on their terms, and in good faith, before dissing. read more

Mmm. Bagels. Mmm. Friendly people. I usually come in the morning for a hazlenut coffee and avocado spinach breakfast sandwich. Sometimes its not seasoned but ingredients are always fresh. Ive had some inconsistency with orders but am always super pleased with ingredient quality. I love their modern greek salad and roasted turkey sandwich too. Super fresh. There can be mild sticker shock with pricing. For two of us the you pick two combos with drinks can hover close to 30. The service is very friendly when I've gone. The drive thru can get backed up, but the Panera rapid pick up is easy. Im glad weve got a fast food place with healthy options! Its just pricey and sometimes inconsistent but ive had some excellent customer service from genuinely friendly people. read more

This is the last time then I'll go to this place in the morning or perhaps anytime. They open at seven I believe and I went at 7:15 I sat in line not because they were really busy but it seemed like employees get there right when it opens as opposed to get there early and prepare for people to come through. The first item that I meant ordered which was a soufflé I was advised that they don't have them right now and that's the only thing I really came here for. I was going to buy a couple other items but the girl offered me a muffin instead. If you have it on your menu and you can have it ready when the business opens why don't you just take it off the menu. It's so frustrating and this is the second time or the third time that I've come and had this happen. Since the recipes online I think I'll just make my own and I will never come back to Panera again. Management needs to get their act together because this business has a good product if only they can get the service part of it together. read more

The ability to skip the line and order via the tablet is awesome. It can be a bit tedious as there are many options and the navigation can be complex, even for an experienced IT guy like me. I love Panera Bread and order the pick two. The wonderful broccoli cheese in a bread bowel and the turkey sandwich with a apple chutney. As much as I love em and just could not ignore how messy my sandwich was. As soon as I picked it up, I had apple chutney juices running down my hand and arm. I didn't even eat the entire sandwich as it was a bit messy for me. The sandwich would have been great if less juicy and non soggy bread. read more

I usually don't have big hopes for Panera bread, because of the thickness of the bread and how hard it is. But decided to come back and give it another try! Upon arrival, they have the "self-serve" computers where you place your own orders and wait at your tables for them to deliver. I ordered the chipotle chicken with a side of Mac and cheese. At this point, I didn't even care how it tasted. I was SO HUNGRY! The food arrived pretty quickly, had a bite of the sandwich. GOOD. So good. Tasty. I didn't mind the bread. It actually complemented the sogginess inside (in a good way). One thing I would change is the Mac and cheese, Super thick and creamy. It's good but I could only have a few bites as it was so thick. But good, don't get me wrong. Overall, I like Panera bread again. read more

My first time trying Panera Bread and idk why I didn't try earlier! I walked in and I saw a kiosk where you can order and grab your number and drink cup. They have so many options and my favorite is the passion papaya green tea! I got the pick 2 with tomato soup and a grilled cheese and it was the perfect combo for this cold weather! My friend also got the pick 2 with tomato soup and tuna salad sandwich and it was also pretty tasty. They also gave us butter to put on top of our bread and it made such a difference. I would def come back to try their soup/mac bowls! read more

Bartender Malcom was the best. Sit at the bar he will explain things and goes above and beyond. Very impressed with his skills

On a rainy early evening, I decided that I needed something somewhat healthy to eat, so I made a deliberate trek to Panera to get a salad. I ordered the Pick 2, and my first pick was the Chinese chicken salad with the steak panini half sandwich being my second pick. I used my app, which is not easily laid out, in order to use a gift certificate that I had for some months. That done, I found an empty seat, which was very easy to do as it was completely deserted of customers when I arrived. The dining room was very clean. That deserves a star in my book! It took very little time for my order to arrive. The salad looked good (except for one ugly wilted piece of cilantro right smack dab on top of the pile which I picked off first thing). The salad also tasted good. It had a variety of flavors mingled together in the bowl making it interesting. I wish there were a few more pieces of chicken, but the chicken that was there was sliced just right. It was a good portion, too, not too much and not too little that even Goldilocks would be satisfied. The panini didn't fare as well for me, though. The half sandwich just looked plain and not very appealing. The steak inside was tough to cut with your teeth, and the flavors of the pickled red onion just didn't do anything for me. I was disappointed with this one. But, hey, it could be someone else's sandwich heaven. With a grand total of a half sandwich and salad being $11.73, I think I will only choose this place once a year. I just think it's a little pricey for what you get. Anyway, that's my side of the menu. read more

12/31/2020 - 9:00 PM. We had an odd experience that night. As background, our son had surgery that week and was still recovering. My wife works as an RN and had a very long extended shift that ended close to 8:45. Driving home, she called our son and they decided together that Panera chili sounded really good, but we were unsure when Panera closed on New Years Eve. I pulled into the drive through just before 9:00. The person who spoke to us initially through the speakers said they had just closed. My wife asked if, by chance, we could still get a couple of chili bowls. He said yes, and that he would just bring them out at no charge (FREE). We thought that was super nice, so I pulled out some cash to tip him for the favor. When I pulled around to the window, a different young man looked at me like I had three heads. He then checked with his team to see if they knew why we were there, and they proceeded to get us the chili. He then charged me nearly $15.00 for the two bowls of chili. They had no baguettes, so he offered mostly undesirable options. In a fairly condescending tone, he reminded us they are closed and that's why they were out of several items. A reminder was unnecessary. We then discovered the $15 chili was COLD and required significant reheating before it could be eaten. Look, I am more than willing to pay for great service and great food. However, I would rather have been turned away than be served a half-assed and ultimately overpriced cold product by an arrogant employee. As a sincere note to management, define and implement a process to prevent this in the future. You charge too much to let this happen. read more

Welcome to South Cooper, Panera! I have been anxiously awaiting the opening of this new Panera location since last summer when I noticed the sign on my way home from the gym. This Panera is in a great location and the drive-thru is really convenient. Employees are friendly and make sure that they give accurate information. I hope that the employees maintain the positive vibe here as some other Panera stores do not share those same qualities. I don't work too far away from this store so I will be visiting frequently, especially when I can steal away from work for lunch. While the food is a bit pricey (imo), it is relatively healthy and yummy so that makes up for the price. read more
