    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.

    I love this Panera, so convenient. I prefer this location to others in the area because you are in and out so quickly.

    Food - GREAT, cooked perfectly and with quality ingredients…read more Service - ABOVE-EXCELLENT I had a special event that I needed four large pizzas for outside of their hours to pick up early. Owner called me back and made a time I could come early to pick these up. Even though early there were already people there this is a very popular neighborhood pizza place. Very personable and connected service. Appreciate the extra effort. Will be back to try for myself. Ambiance - Well, in honesty. The look from the outside is why I haven't stopped having moved here almost 2 years ago. Very small in a dated shopping center with limited parking. I understand now why the parking is full at lunch. Definitely a takeout place, but a neighborhood stop. Worth the planning. No cards just cash, come prepared.

However, it doesn't earn the full five or even four for me for two main reasons. One is I'm not particularly into cooper sharp cheese, it adds a unique flavor but it's strong and takes away from one of the best flavors of this sandwich which is the exceptional steak used. Second is this sub clocked in at nearly $20 (cash only too which is wild in 2026 but I get it , Uncle Sam and it's Taxachusetts) and is barely a foot long. While the taste is overall solid and unique, I don't think the value exactly fits its price tag. My favorite part about this sandwich is actually the roll it comes on, freshly made and the sesame seeds add a nice touch, but it's not enough to justify the price. Definitely worth the try if you haven't had it, but not good enough to guarantee you'll be coming back for what you're paying. Can't speak for the other items other than the steak and cheese

    Mike & Pattys has arrived in Lexington and it came up as a suggest food spot for breakfast so I…read moredecided to give it a go. Unfamiliar with the menu, the window advertising "home of the fancy" swayed my choice a little and I felt that naturally I had to try it. Plus the bacon and mayo combo hooked me. No disappointments here, it was delicious! All of the ingredients were fresh and paired well together. I think the appearance threw me off a little, maybe from how the bread looks, but it tasted really good. My drink was just an iced coffee with carmel but next time I want to try the bottled maple cream cold brew because that was calling my name. Overall solid local spot that I would come back too. Their menu is quite original but still simple enough so you can find something for breakfast or lunch. And oh man, reading the description for their grilled Nutella fluff sandwich made my mouth water. Definitely need to come back for that. They are only open for breakfast and lunch so keep the hours in mind.

    If you are looking for a new breakfast place because your favorites closed down and there are not…read moremany options out there. You have to try Mike and Patty's. They are open for breakfast and lunch. The menu is small but is good. They have sandwiches, BLT, breakfast burritos, English muffins to name a few options. They have hot and cold coffees to choose from. My friend and I ordered both the fancy, which contains fried eggs, bacon, avocado, red onions and house mayo on a multigrain bread. I have to say it was very tasty. It is kind of pricy for just a sandwich. But I think the idea is that it's not a chain restaurant and they use healthy foods to make their sandwiches. It's a local place, which is great to support. It is small inside, although they have some tables and chairs to sit and eat. It is also very clean. It is located in a plaza, so there is parking. They do a few other locations. So if you're in this area, it is a must.

I'd never been before, but the setup is kind of like Subway where you choose what you want in your sub, which I liked. I ordered a tuna sub and it was delicious, really fresh and super satisfying. Definitely hit the spot. The service was great, friendly vibes, and a couple of the staff even cracked some jokes while we were ordering, which was a nice touch. You can eat inside, but we grabbed ours to go. Only heads-up: they carry Pepsi products (I'm more of a Coke fan), but not a dealbreaker for me. While I was waiting, I watched them make a version of a steak and cheese sub and now I have to go back and try it. All in all, really glad I gave it a shot, and I'll definitely be back!

They use almost half a dozen fresh cold cuts plus cheese. I recommend asking for the Rosemary Parmesan rolls (though the Wheat is not bad either). You can get whatever toppings you want. The staff is very fast--it's amazing how quickly they can assemble a sub with all the different cold cuts they must use. It's quite labor-intensive it seems. I've visited a number of times and the staff is always nice and professional. There's been some staff turnover but the new folks are just as good as the previous ones. They all work hard and are never grumpy. The store is is big, airy and always perfectly clean. I don't remember ever seeing papers or crumbs left on any of the table when I walked in. The prices are high, but when you consider the excellent quality, the always fresh bread, and the large portions, I think it's a pretty good value. Just take home what you cannot eat there. Parking is a little tight in this strip mall, but keep in mind that you can also park on the south side.
