    Today I was other salads and sandwiches to pick up. But I was pick up late, they didn't hold my food.they told me no refund. I don't want refund, I just want my food. And they told me other another one and PAY AGAIN???????? I paid already, they threw my foods and told my pay again to get the foods??????

    I ordered a Green Goddess cob with chicken...they did put avocado in it but it was brown and it tasted awful and comparing it to other Panera breads, there was hardly enough content in it....very dissatisfied with the service given that it was not even lunch rush hour (1:35 pm)... The ambience was ok...

    This is one of my favorite Panera's. Very spacious dining room with lots of comfy seating. This one was designed very well. On this visit there were lots of people there on a Saturday morning working on laptops, studying, etc. I ordered a scone and a bagel with butter to go for my friend. Everything was done just as I asked. Wait was short and I enjoyed just sitting there eating and waiting for my friend to pick me up. Great spot to meet up. Definitely check out this location!

    the saddest toasted frontega chicken sandwich of all time

    This is the saddest excuse for a sandwich i've ever seen. The picture says it all. Unbelievable

    We DoorDashed from this location. Both my boyfriend and me had our favorite sandwiches changed. His sandwich got taken off completely (then re-added!) and mine got the pesto replaced with hummus, which made me sad since there's less flavor. If you're ordering on DoorDash, Panera won't let you customize it other than removing ingredients but when I'm in the store I like to ask for their Fuji Apple Dressing to add to the Mediterranean Veg sandwich for the flavor. I loveeee their Peppadew Peppers.

    Had lunch with the fam here today. If you are unaware, as I was. You can now order from your table with the Panera App. So, if you're not a people person or s lousy tipper, you're in luck. I ordered the Chipotle Chicken Avocado Melt. The sandwich was good with a decent helping of avocados and cheese. This is going to sound like one of the Honest Trailer videos on YouTube: Panera, If you're hungry, we have food, and it's pretty good but not over the top good. So, if you're hungry, are near a Panera, it's good place to get a sandwich. If you have to drive across town, you could probably make this yourself.

    Newer, upscale panera Bread style.

    This Panera Bread is crazy, I have never seen one like it. I guess it has recently been renovated. It looks nothing like a normal Panera Bread (not sure if they all are switching over to this style). It looks more like a restaurant than a fast casual place. It has a modern/farmhouse atmosphere. Instead of going up to get your order like at other Paneras, they bring it to you at your table. I ordered the you pick two, Caesar salad and The frontera chicken panini. It was good, tasted the same as any other Panera. The location was very clean and the employees were nice.

    I've been pleased with the quality of the food and service at this Panera location. I've visited this morning and I was greeted and served by one of the managers, who was very on top of his game. For lunch, I usually have the green goddess Cobb salad with chicken added. The green goddess dressing is simply amazing. I also stop in on a semi-regular basis to pick up a bag of bagels to take out to various doctors offices for my job. Staffers are always excited to see me coming with a Panera bag. The bagel pack includes 13 bagels of your choice and cream cheese. They also offer a slicing service, or you can take them home whole. It's a great way to make an office happy. Overall, this location is doing a great job. The service is quick, the food is good and the restaurant is clean.

    Spinach artichoke soufflé, seasonal fruit cup, A Bottle of Passion Fruit Papaya Green Tea, and Hazelnut coffee.

    Love Panera Bread and was excited to see this one near the hotel I was lodging at. This location is located in the summit which is right near the highway. The inside is nice as it is one of the modern Panera concepts with the bright lighting, wood decor, and nice size patio seating. One of my favorite breakfast items to order is the spinach artichoke soufflé and while placing the order, the cashier made me aware that they were already out at 7:30 a.m. Disappointed, I asked if more were baking in the oven. Luckily, there were and she told me it would be 14 minutes for a fresh one. I didn't mind the wait as they taste the best when fresh anyway so I sipped on some coffee during the delay. My only negative feedback is the male employee working on the kitchen line that I observed tucking in his shirt and getting something from his pockets with gloves hands and then he proceeded to continue prepping food failing to wash his hands and put on new gloves. It's baffling that even in the midst of living through this coronavirus pandemic, people still don't seem to understand the importance of proper hand washing.

    I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!…read more For this week's vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free theme, I picked Chopt Creative Salad Co., and I honestly love it. I'm not fully vegetarian or vegan, but I really appreciate having options that feel fresh and not heavy. Every time I go, everything just tastes clean. Nothing feels overly processed or greasy, and I don't leave with that "why did I eat that" feeling. What stands out to me is how easy it is to build something without meat and still feel satisfied. They have plenty of plant-based proteins, grains, and toppings that actually have flavor. It doesn't feel like you're just eating lettuce. I also like that you can customize everything exactly how you want it. I usually order the Farm Bowl (I think that's what it's called) with almonds, apples, sweet potatoes, goat cheese, and chicken. I always get the dressing on the side and swap the goat cheese for tomatoes. The mix of sweet potatoes and apples with the crunch from the almonds is so good. And honestly? It would be just as good without the chicken, which I love because it shows you don't need meat for it to feel filling. The vibe is simple and modern, and it's a good spot for a quick lunch. Service is always splendid! Overall, it's one of my favorite healthier options because I feel energized after eating there instead of sluggish. I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for something fresh and lighter.

Soup changes daily and this day was chickpea and chorizo. Nothing life changing about it but it wasn't bad. We walked into a small, dark, crowded dive bar and ordered amongst several other people after waiting in line shoulder to shoulder with other customers. I say this not to complain (because with a crowd like this on a random weekday, they're obviously doing something right) but to take your kids in car seats (‍) with caution. Crowds in small spaces stress me out and it would have been even worse if we'd had the boys with us. I'd also highly suggest going on a day when you can sit outside. There's very minimal seating inside. They do have a lovely, spacious patio that also feels like a garden with plenty of trees for shade. However, they make it clear they don't want dogs there. Parking was horrific. A narrow street with cars on each side. We barely fit through it. If there wouldn't have been an open spot on it, I'm not sure what the next option is because I didn't see anywhere else and this street only held so many. I would dine here again because the sandwiches were fresh and delicious and they obviously know what they're doing! I was pleasantly surprised that they had prosecco as well. Just heed my few warnings and you'll enjoy as well!

The dressing is delicious and not overdone. They've got bar seating, two tables for larger groups, and then booth seating along the walls. It's a farm-to-table vibe in here, and the food certainly matches. I've never been disappointed by anything from here. I need to try out their downtown location next!

This is a spot with a heavy regular rotation. The people of Mountain Brook/Vestavia are here for dinner. It's a specific crowd. Service was great, the waitstaff is very friendly and on top of things. My dad ordered the "Magic City Manhattan" -- I'm not normally a dark liquor person, but I thought this was fantastic. I think it was the pecan liquor which made it so good. We split the muscles appetizer, which was great. The broth was so warm, garlicky, acidic, perfect. Love. And the bread that came with was great, too. If I'm being picky, the bread services' butter could've been more room-temp and easier to spread. But that's me being extremely picky. We ordered the lamb chop entree to split, too. Again, great. This is a fantastic spot if you're not looking to travel downtown for dinner. Easy menu, crowd pleasing. Definitely suited for an older crowd, which can be harder to find in the downtown spots.

There's a number of off-menu items so be sure to ask your server! My only complaint is that best tables are held for the "regulars;" so I guess it's time to become a regular at Foodbar.
