    Ordered at 11:51am.  Order done 12:54pm - - Really?!!!?

    Unacceptable. This was my second visit to the Panera "Express" in Bedford, MA The first time was bad - they didn't get my on-line order so I was told they'd put it in right away. 20 minutes of pacing later I got it - minus the side salad I ordered. I believe in trying things at least twice, so this time I ordered 40 min before-hand. I ordered on-line at 11:51 AM Scheduled for a 12:30 pick up Got my order in hand at 12:54 PM I got there and there were 23 people milling around waiting for their orders - mostly call-ins. Chaos and fighting behind the counter. My name wasn't even on the board for "In Preparation". I figured it happened again and they didn't get the order. Flagged down a ragged man who checked and said it did come in but no one put it on the to do list. He said he'd push it through. 24 minutes of pacing this time. When I left most of the original people were still there and the staff was telling walk-ins it would be about a 40 minute wait. It seems to me that if your business scope is EXPRESS, you should probably figure out why you are FAILING. Hmmm... maybe you need more / better people at lunch time? Oh, and $10 for a Tuna Sandwich? Nope.

    Food pickup station.

    Has an interesting software for managing the food production. Friendly staff. Clean.

    Disappointing.

    We were staying in Billerica at a hotel and needed something quick to eat and this was the only…read moredecent looking option. The outdoor igloo seating seemed like a risky choice (it's only outdoor seating or take out here) but we went for it anyway. You're seated in your own igloo, it was about a 40 degree night and we stayed comfortable keeping our light jackets on. We enjoyed our time and our food eating-in, that we will order from this market again in the future. We both ordered the spicy mango margarita, which tasted very good. I don't think the drinks are made fresh? Can't confirm, but I believe I saw something premixed poured into the glass I was served. We ordered the charred veggie hummus and it was some of the best hummus I've ever tasted. If they're not actually making that stuff fresh they had me fooled, so I will guess that they are. The pita was warm, fresh, and fluffy. We each got one of the bowl entrees -- the steak and a salmon bowl -- the portions were generous and the fresh, veggie forward entree was exactly what was needed for an out-of-town stop (you can only eat so much bar food out here). Overall, I've read the bad reviews and can totally see how this place would be a gamble depending on what you order. But from my experience I had no truly bad remarks, and I would definitely return.

    I'm sorry, but I really don't understand all the great reviews. I'm not one of those people who…read morelikes giving bad reviews. I always try to give credit where credit is due, but this place REALLY rubbed me the wrong way. I ordered a classic burger and the truffle tots and was completely shocked at how bad it was. The patty was dense and bland and had scalloped edges!!! Wtf. Clearly bought from a food service company. And worse, it was completely over cooked. I could have overlooked the industrial patty had the flavor and the burger fixings been good, but unfortunately not. No lettuce, no tomatoes, just a couple of pickles and a sloppy amount of chipotle aioli. I don't think that's a "classic" burger in most people's book. The aioli had SO much chipotle powder in it that it overpowered the entire burger with bitterness. I find a shitty burger to be an unforgivable restaurant sin given how little effort they are to make properly. It's lazy and inexcusable. The tots (which I'll give you, are a slightly more acceptable item to be out of a bag) were so drenched in truffle oil that they were greasy and overpowered by artificial truffle flavor. I also got a piece of cake. How bad does cake have to be for you to toss it after one bite? Pretty stinking bad... it had a weird chemical taste. I feel disrespected as a diner that this market eatery thinks people don't taste the difference between industrial food company food and the real, freshly made thing.
