Wow just visited the Panera Bread on Leesburg Pike and you talk about filth just plan nasty behind the counter and the lobby area, I don't know maybe it's just me but how hard is it to keep your establishment clean especially when you are in the food industry! This says a lot about these franchises not just Panera but many of them the owners don't care they just collect as much money as they can and keep pushing not realizing if their business were clean and the workers treated the store with pride that would get more business!!!! Sad read more

Your danishes are terrible! They are dry, small and not worth the price you charge for them!! I would encourage anyone that wants danishes to buy them from Costco! Much better quality, fresh and much better value!! read more

I don't remember I had a sandwich and croissant 7 years ago when I was in the hospital and they're not that bad. Once again I got a croissant and they're really good but I wish I gone there more often read more

While working, I stopped by Panera and ordered a cheese steak, cheesy broccoli soup, and a Cesar salad. Overall, it was a satisfying combo! The cheese steak was flavorful, the cheesy broccoli soup was creamy and comforting, and the Cesar salad was crisp and refreshing - a nice balance with the richer items. Panera had good ambience and was good for a workspace. Would order again for a work lunch. read more

I was given a filthy spoon with my soup. When I asked for a clean one and to speak to the manger, she angrily dismissed my complaint, did not apologise and aggressively said "I already replaced it with a clean one"!. Trust in the hygiene of a food outlet is the corner stone of the relationship. I doubt I can ever again step into any of the many Panera locations around me. read more

The turkey bravo sandwich is decent. Also if you want fresh loaves of bread, deli items they have them. A lot of people love this chain. For me it's a like. It works for a quick lunch or dinner. Their soups taste salt loaded. Whether they are loaded with this or not, I cannot prove it either way. A busy location, please do be careful parking in Bailey's Crossing Shopping Center. This area is quite urban and busy. Plus note really nice employees. They also are efficient. I hope Panera makes some new options for its menu. The chain could use refreshing/modernizing. If you're in the area, this serves a purpose. read more

Employee and manager near the pick up is extremely rude, and treat elders horribly. I saw him call a customer a liar for not knowing where to pick up food. He's a self proclaimed rude person read more

Poor Service, Poor Quality, and Not Kid Friendly! Ordered a $50 dinner for 3 of us. Our 5 year old loves the Mac & Cheese. We were told, we aren't doing Non-togo orders because we are short staffed. Can't give you a plate for a 5 year old to eat off. Didn't get one of our chips, and everything was rushed and poorly made. We have eaten here many times in the past... Wow! Tonight was BAD!!! 12/01/2022 6:40PM read more

Panera Bread - Eating from a lid!! - Sandwiches Near Me - Bailey's Crossroads, Virginia

Panera Bread is always a good spot to grab a healthy bite with some nice healthy drink options. Nothing particularly spectacular about this one compared with others. It was clean, service was standard and it wasn't too busy on the inside. I ordered the creamy tomato soup with a side of bread and a chocolate croissant. The tomato soup was alright. It was warm, instead of hot and it could have used some spice or additional season to jazz it up a bit. Other than that. A pretty normal experience at a Panera. read more

Panera is my jam. Order online to save time and pick up. This location has historically gotten pretty busy--and the pandemic has definitely made that worse. As of mid-2021, the restaurant is back open for indoor dining, but also fielding a lot of online orders. During peak lunch time on a weekday, expect some chaos! But my recent order was made pretty quickly. The French onion soup was missing croutons and cheese, which wasn't ideal, but oh well. In the future I'll probably try to order at a less peak time so I can avoid the crowds. read more

As I was ordering my food I noticed the cook is preparing fresh danish so I ask the female cashier to add one to my order the cashier said no she cant sell the fresh danish I must buy the old once. I was like no no I would like to get the fresh once she said the rules are to sell the old once first. Then I asked when was is it baked she said 5 am this morning I'm like that 13 hours ago it's 6 pm. In open air I'm like no I don't want it. But also I'm customer and customer is always right. After I got my sandwich and soup my omg it was tasteless the famous broccoli soup does not taste the same . It seems the staff are unhappy or not properly trained. Not going back to falls church panera bread. read more

I ordered the chicken Fonta sandwich and it was terrible. There was gristle meat in the sandwich which was absolutely disgusting. The onions look old and just overall did not taste good. It's unfortunate because this was my go to sandwich forever but this location made it terribly. Also this location is always out of pastries, I wanted to order a few different options of pastries however they had very little option in the store. I went around 2 o'clock and they only had one type of bagel, no box pastries, and no bagged cookies as they normally do. This is my third time going to the location because it's most convenient and they're always out of items. The Manager was not helpful at all and seemed very short. read more

I don't think this place is COVID-19 ready yet. Curbside pick-up location is right outside of the front door, which is located at the corner of the entrance to this little shopping area. If there are more than 3 cars parked there waiting for their orders, incoming traffic has a great chance to hit the last car. Another customer and myself had to walk into the restaurant to get our "curbside pickup" order. Given the fact the restaurant opens at 7 am, not all coffee was brewed by 9 am. It is understandable that COVID-19 created a new lifestyle and change how the way businesses operate. Hopefully they catch up with a new world. read more

I've become a Paneraholic bc I have two hours to kill every morning before my work due to my long drive in from the hinterlands... so I bought the sip club membership. This Panera (maybe bc I am literally here every weekday morning and I'm one of the 8 or so regulars) has the best service of the 4 that are between work and my house. Not the best decor-- a bit dated compared to one but much better than a couple of others. They are super patient with my orders. I do substitutions to add lots of extra veggies and you can order salads for breakfast! As well as other lunch items Just no soups. I don't love Panera coffee. It's just ok enough to be worth it at the sip club price but I do love republic of tea teas and they have those as well as nice iced tea and coffee and my personal favorite Buble fizzy water a couple of nice things about Panera generally-- free veggie adds so get that extra tomato! They will remake botched items. Consistency can sometimes be off but I do ask for mods so that's part of it. They also don't have many breakfast options for the trying to manage carbs reasonably types hence why I was stoked to learn I can order salads for breakfast. They dropped their boiled egg side add on which annoys me. But the end of the day I really have enjoyed my personal fast casual Cheers! No pics bc I don't usual take pics of my every day meals oh another pro tip... Apple Pay and Bank of America often run 3-10 percent cash back here. Add that to the multiple times per year 20percrnt off gift card specials and you can get 20-25 percent off your meals here in addition to one of the best app bonus specials people that have the free app get regularly. The sip club is about 12$ a month but if you use the above discounts to pay for it.. you see where I'm going. A couple of location specific things-- being that I'm here every day I can say that some of the one star reviews do have a little merit-- they do run out of items regularly when people make for instance huge bagel orders not through the catering department and Panera HQ has made significant menu updates (see my own bone to pick about eggs) and sometimes they do turn away people bc they have a small issue with non ordering customers wanting to use facilities and such. Also the store isn't the most conveniently laid out so sometimes they don't see you and bc of theft your orders aren't on the to go shelf always and you have to ask. Also as I said consistency is sometimes an issue and one day you get a fav salad and another day (like today you look at it and pout... so unfortunately some things are true but I'm here daily bc they open at 6 and nowhere else around my POW does. So... it's worth a second chance and maybe not one star but as a tough reviewer myself i can say it's not perfect but it's fast casual folks! Not fine dining read more

Clueless that this Panera has such a low rating until I want to share my experience. Ahhh! I'm not alone! Panera has set a level of expectation of what to experience visiting their restaurants- that one MUST post when it's not being met. But from look of these constant issues- the management of this location does not care! I'm seeing ZERO responses to these multiple issues. It's JANUARY at the time of this posting - NO ONE is wiping down the kiosks! Ummm we're in full swing of germs - flu season, viruses, and all kinds of yuckiness. The fingerprints left on the screens and noticeable crumbs and smears of whatever on the tables is disturbing! My order. Ugh! This is why I don't pre-tip! I would've been madder and have experienced that before. I hate having to reassemble my food -- yet here we are. The tuna just slapped haphazardly on the bread (which was HARD AF because it's been left out) along with end pieces of onion. WHY would you put this on ANYONE's sandwich! This piece of onion should've been tossed! I had to put my tuna back on the bread (which was not much at all), toss the onion butt - then eat. Last I checked- I DO NOT work for Panera! read more

Food was very good and excellent value for the money. I ordered for pickup using the online app so I cannot say much about service. I bought a full bowl of French onion soup plus a generously-sized half chicken BLT plus a chocolate chip cookie. The app made it easy to get my soup and sandwich exactly as I wanted them, and they came exactly as ordered. The cookie was soft rather than the crispier kind I prefer -- a lesson learned. Quality and taste of the soup and sandwich were truly superior. The food was ready a minute early. Total $17.50. I'll be back. read more

Ordered a margherita flatbed "pizza" and the sauce sucked and also the tomato sucked. B

All their employees are very very rude and bad communication with customers. Difficult to order and get it. So long wait and line all the time. That's why never go back there again. Other brunches has no problem, but only this branch has always problems. Better chance management or close it this branch!!! read more

This place is hit or miss. I usually order through Rapid Pickup. Sometimes my rapid pick up order is there, sometimes it's not. Sometimes my food is fresh and delicious, sometimes it's disappointing. Tonight it was definitely disappointing. I ordered a caprese sandwich and ended up with a gosh darn arugula sandwich with an itty bitty bit of caprese! Summamuhbih! Check out my photo to see if u can even spot the caprese on my sandwich. Oh yeah, and the bread was kinda burnt. Also, my food was not in the Rapid Pickup area so I actually had to interact with one of the employees to get my food. I didn't want to chit chat. I just wanted to go in and grab my stuff. Total bummer. Get it together Bailey's Crossroads Panera or next time you'll be getting one star from me. read more

The Management Team at this Panera needs to retrain all their employees and or be replaced by a new Management Team. The food at tis Panera is good; when the orders are correctly made, this issue is with the Employees. On my last visit, I ordered through the "Fast Kiosk," went to the pick-up area and proceeded to be entertained by the number of orders that were incorrectly made and returned. It was so bad that there was someone, checking all of the orders that came from the Kitchen, she was sending 50% back to the kitchen for redo; orders that passed her review were also being returned to her by customers. During the 20 minutes it took me to get my half turkey sandwich with extra mayo and chicken with wild rice soup, i saw 4 customers return food to the employee checking orders from the kitchen that were incorrect and this did not include ones she caught. The remaking and correction of all these orders of course caused everyone else's food to be delayed. By the time my food was ready, she called my name, checked my order and told me she was sending it back because extra mayo had been left off the turkey sandwich. At this point I loudly stated "give me my order, i will put mayo on it, when i get home." Of course, when I got home I discovered, extra mayo had been put on the sandwich. I received an email from Panera later in the day, apologizing for the delay in receiving my food, how bout in stead of emails acknowledging issues with this Panera, send a District Manager in to fix the situation. Obviously based on reviews from other Yelpers, there is a problem with this location. read more

Panera at Bailey's Crossroads stopped serving smoothies a while ago, it looks like. They are always out of many stuff. Always! So I have to go to other paneras that are located far. It's very frustrating. Some stuff, once they run out, they won't restock them for a while, like days or weeks. Biggest problem I have with them is that they don't bother to brew Decaf offee once they run out whenever, say early afteroon or even morning. They don't have decaf through late afternoon to the night. It's grossly counterintuitive. They say you can ask for a decaf and they will pour some for you inside but it's so annoying that you can't just have it whenever you want outside the counter. Overall, really annoying. Useless. The manager woman is a friendly and efficient woman. I wonder how come she doesn't make changes to those annoying things. Please do! read more

I got an email that I can get a free bagel everyday in Apr. My family members didn't get. I asked the staff about it. She told me that some people got. I'm lucky! Taste: Good. Maybe better in the morning according to the taste of a bagel. Price: Good. Customer service: Awesome. Ambience: Casual. Parking: Free. Location: Awesome. TJ Maxx, Homegoods, Burlington, Giant, Target, Buffalo wing, etc... Tip: Sign up on their web site. You will get many free goodies:) read more

Great experience this time! The gentleman that took my order was so nice and helpful. I asked about the Bacon Turkey Bravo Sandwich and he explained it to me and another one. Service was speedy. My sandwich was fresh and yummy, served with smoked gouda cheese, nice twist. The dining area was not too crowded. Very pleasant. read more

Recently, this Panera has become my go-to spot for working. It's college application season for my students so I've been writing recommendation letters like there's no tomorrow. I frequented this spot due to its large amount of seating space, outlets, and delicious foods that keeps fueling me on. I also really enjoy their music selection even though most of the time, I will use my headphones. See my pic of their signature hot chocolate....I mean, look at those to die for chocolate chip marshmellows!! What?? So fancy! It was delicious. As usual, the soup and sandwich combo is great (Though I learned I should substitute the bread for a fruit cup because it seems like a better deal and really, after a sandwich, I don't really need another loaf of bread) Since this Panera is connected to the shopping center, there's plenty of parking. It does get crowded around peak lunch and dinner time, esp. on weekends. However, i was there dinner time on a weekday and it still had plenty of seating. FYI, I found out they do not have "order from table" option at this Panera so don't waste your time going through the menu online like I did! (its misleading because they have signs all over the tables for this option but it's not offered here). Another tip: become a panera rewards member. Free to sign up. You get a free sweet treat just for signing up and apparently you get points for buying things. Haven't seen any of the other rewards but hey, a free sweet treat is good enough for me. read more

Walked in to pick up an order that was ready at 8PM in the evening. Barely anyone in the restaurant but was ignored by all staff. Sat down in front of the empty pickup rack. Confusedly waited a few minutes since no personnel appeared to be tending to the counter. Noticed two takeout bags behind the unmanned register. Stood up and leaned over to check if one of them was mine (it was) and was immediately yelled at by one of the 6 uniformed staff who were chatting with each other. Guy complained to me that he was "just doing his job". Spoke to the manager who explained that the orders were behind the counter due to thefts earlier in the day. Fair enough. Maybe greet your customers and ask them to confirm their name instead. Perhaps ask if they need any help instead of immediately verbally assaulting them for attempting to pick up their order when no one is tending to them. Probably not a great idea to ignore and treat your honest customers like they are thieves. Overpriced food. Clueless staff and management. Steer clear. read more

I've been getting delivery from this place occasionally with the COVID crisis ongoing, and their drivers are always super friendly (at least when they don't outsource to DoorDash, which sometimes they do.) Ibrahim in particular is super when he delivers in the mornings, always a perk to pick me up in the morning when he comes to deliver my food. All the food here is good, the sandwiches, the soups, the breakfast stuff. Awesome. I just wish they'd keep using their own drivers since the tracker doesn't work when they use Doordash and they don't always have the same quality service that Panera does, but that isn't really Panera's fault so I can't blame them for that, only Doordash's fault. Hopefully I can come by in person once this whole COVID is over. read more

This Panera seems to be a community hub; I met my wedding planner here years ago to talk over coffee. I came here to work on homework, and could see other people doing business lunches or working on a laptop. It's nice that they're welcoming to people who have hustle and bustle to take care of. I ordered the mac n cheese and fuji chicken salad as a you pick two. I always love their mac n cheese, but the fuji chicken was a new one for me. I liked it! I could've done with a little less onion, but I really liked that the apple was dried. I'd order it again. read more

Dirty, inefficient, and just plain wrong. My daughter and I stopped for takeout the other evening and were amazed at how much time they spent remaking orders they got wrong. That probably accounted for much of the 30 minutes we had to wait for her Grilled Cheese sandwich with a side of chips and my salad with a side of bread. On the upside, we had plenty of time to notice the dirty floors and filthy tables. Once we got our food and made it home things sort of looked up. My salad was OK and the bread they tossed in was good. My daughter enjoyed her sandwich but they forgot to include the chips. Guess I could ask for them the next time I'm there and that'll never happen. read more

I am a fun of The Baja Grain Bowl contains quinoa, black beans, and feta cheese, all of which are good sources of plant-based protein. Protein is essential for muscle repair and growth, as well as providing a feeling of fullness.The bowl incorporates black bean and corn salsa, which are high in fiber. Fiber promotes healthy digestion, helps maintain stable blood sugar levels, and contributes to feelings of satiety. Avocado, an ingredient in the Baja Grain Bowl, is a great source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. These fats help reduce bad cholesterol levels and support overall cardiovascular health. The cherry tomatoes in the bowl provide vitamin C and other antioxidants, while the quinoa contributes B vitamins and minerals such as magnesium and iron. These nutrients play various roles in supporting immune function, energy production, and overall wellness. read more

Poor!! I came in for a Chocolate Chip bagel with cream cheese and a caramel latte with almond milk. Always CHECK your food before leaving! I walked out with an everything bagel and latte. Fortunately I checked before getting on the road. Went back in only and told the worker I ordered the chocolate chip. She immediately said, oh yes! You got the wrong bagel Okay so why did you let me leave with the wrong one? So I attempted to hand her the original one back and she said, "I don't want it!" So I clapped back, "UMMMM NEITHER DO I!" She told me to throw it away. Really?!! Wth Just take the bagel back and throw it away, Lady!!! So I get back to my car and taste my caramel latte....blah I asked for extra caramel and got nothing. I quit. Never again. read more

Sorry Panera I had to say something. As Panera goes they are all pretty standard. There are some smaller ones, and some tiny ones, this one is a decent sized location so I compare it to other location I have been to that are as similar. This is the worst of all Panera's I have been too. Major differences from others I have been too: 1. They don't bring you your food. Not a biggie but that's first. 2. The prep screen doesn't work. 3. There are never vibrator/pager thingies available when your trying to skip the long line, which is always. 4. The bathrooms are disgusting 5. It seems like there is no one walking around to make sure the place is clean. As far as the food is concerned it's pretty well prepared, but the orders are wrong. On two separate occasions I ordered the pick-two and got a full bowl of soup and a full sandwich...where I should be jumping for joy it's a lot of food and it's a 'wrong' order. Not a fan here for this location and I look forward to them fixing or tightening up the experience. read more
