    Toasted Frontega Chicken and Autumn Squash Soup
    Tamara E.

    The location was bright and clean. The employee that was working the register was friendly and welcoming. For food we both ordered from the "you pick 2" menu. I got the Frontega Chicken (no onions) and the Autumn Squash Soup. My husband had the Ciabatta Cheesesteak and the Cream of Chicken & Wild Rice Soup. To drink he had a soda pop and I had the Blueberry Lavender Lemonade. Both sandwiches were good but nothing special. They were hot and all items were in proportion. The meats were lightly seasoned and the bread was toasted to Panera standards. The Frontega has been my go to for years and I have to say I miss the old recipe-i'm not a fan of the new one. The Autumn Squash Soup was DELICIOUS! I wish it came around more often. It is flavorful and the garnish brings it to the next level. The Chicken & Wild Rice Soup was hearty and good but had an interesting surprise in it. We weren't sure if it was a giant chunk of cardboard (this is my thoughts based on texture) or a large bone, but we found a large object in the soup which was a turn off. My Blueberry Lavender Lemonade was DISGUSTING! I had two sips (my husband could only stand 1) and had to throw it away. It tasted like a lavender candle. I will be returning but Panera will not be my 1st choice with my favorite sandwich just being ok now, and definitely will be passing on the special lemonade.

    Panera bread is a pleasant addition to the dining landscape of Carson City. My wife and I were there on a cold and blustery day. We had some hot onion soup that tasted great. We also had two different breakfast sandwiches. The staff was pleasant and helpful and everybody knew their role in making the guests happy. In short, when we're in Carson City, we will definitely be thinking about having lunch at the Panera bread store.

    My order

    Food was good. Panera has a good product. However, service is another matter. This place is perpetually slow. Every time I have gone there it takes a while to get anything. This is my first Yelp on it. I made an online order at 4:17pm. I asked for it to be ready at 5pm in the drive thru. I arrived at the drive up at 4:55pm and waited for one customer ahead of me. At 5pm I was at the window and was told my food wasn't ready, go sit in the parking lot. I waited 7 minutes. I go and ask where is my food? Who are you? I'm G Meyer, I have an online order I made at 4:17 to be ready at 5:00. Am I still waiting for it? She tells me they are starting on my food now. She offered me cookie to placate me like I was five. How long does it take to have something ready at 5:00pm? A total disappointment in online ordering. Honest to God, you can take lessons from Wendys.

    Geez why is Panera so expensive. The pick two isn't really a deal. A small side of Mac n cheese was over $8.00 and they give you bread with everything. So if you love bread this is your spot. All of of their soups contain dairy and gluten which was disappointing if you have food sensitivities. Although it does seem vegetarian friendly. I will say that this location is brand new and it's super nice inside and big. They do bake their own bread and have a large treat section. It's also a drive thru and right on the corner of the intersection. It is a healthy option for Carson and another quick place to eat is nice.

    Since I'm in the area, decided to order online from my phone. Went inside to pick up order and the bagels were ready, but not the drinks. It all worked out, and I was able to get my drinks while waiting. I did ask for almond milk, and they used regular... so I'm taking those oldies too! The cinnamon crunch lattes are really good! I also got the cherry vanilla bagels, and of course cinnamon crunch.

    Day 1!

    For day one and the crowds they had everthing running pretty smooth! Drive thru was wrapped as expected, but we found some seats inside. Employees were all nice, and the food was solid as always. They were out of several soups so be aware first day jitters!

    Pleasantly surprised. Clean bright Panera with plenty of parking. Service was fast and friendly. Not many baked items left at 1800 on a Sunday evening, but they had something I wanted. Dining room seemed clean and well kept. All in all a good experience.

    I see this restaurant has many negative reviews, but the two times I have been here (October 31, 2022--two weeks after the grand opening--and today), and the service was excellent. This restaurant is in a new plaza (Cochise Crossing) on the south end of Carson City, by US route 50/I-580 and South Carson Street. It only opened on October 17, 2022, and was the company's second location in northern Nevada (with the one at UNR in Reno being the first a month earlier). There are two more Panera Breads planned for Reno and Sparks. I went in the early morning today and got a pastry to go (pumpkin cookie for the fall!). The manager was walking by and greeted me. I looked at all the pastries and bagels, which were freshly baked, full stocked, and thoughtfully displayed, and made my choice. I chose the self-service stations, as there were three, and only one was taken. Otherwise, there were two people ahead of me in line, but I noticed it went quickly. The self-service station was easy to use, well lit, intuitive, and clean. Almost as soon as I placed the order, I went to the pick-up hutch by the kitchen window. There was a computer display showing the status of my order. The manager saw me looking at the ready pick-up items and told me there was an order waiting with the name "Megan" she thought was mine, but it wasn't. She then quickly handed my finished order right to me. It couldn't have been more than a minute since I placed the order that it was ready! I forgot to test the free wifi, but I will next time. The restaurant itself was spotless, as was the parking lot. It was brightly lit. The store was well staffed, and the employees worked fast and were well trained. It wasn't too busy--mostly customers getting food before heading off to work. A few tables were occupied. There was even a clear drive-thru, which many of the older Panera Breads do not have. Delivery is also available if you prefer, as well as catering. One thing I would like to mention, which has nothing to do with the restaurant, is this business can be a little tricky to enter, since the entire small plaza it is in is on Cochise Street, but is blocked by Dutch Bros. Coffee on W. Appion Way. Most people will come to this location via S. Carson Street, and turn onto W. Appion, then think they can enter the plaza on W. Appion, but there is that aforementioned Duch Bros. Coffee, which is not part of the plaza. If you enter that restaurant, there is no way to get to Panera Bread. You have to turn onto Cochise St. after driving on W. Appion. No biggie, but I just wanted people who are unfamiliar with the location, like me, to know. I will definitely return to this restaurant, as it is a clean location with excellent service, good food, and plenty of space to work.

    Not very much chicken salad on that sandwich.   Lots of lettuce.

The raspberry center got stuck to the parchment paper bag. The Tiramisu was ok, nothing to write home about let alone finish. The extra hot latte was as expected. Extra Hot and delivered the caffeine dose needed. Ambiance is nice. We would have liked to be regulars. For the cakes or honey. Found the carne asada tacos at Centro market (first time) more delicious, 20 mins after sharing a sandwich here. Go there!

Every bite tasted like something crafted with care, not just thrown together. Overall, this is the kind of place you look forward to coming back to.

However, service has been a challenge during each visit. On our most recent visit, it took about 20 minutes to be seated with a party of four, including a child, even though there appeared to be open tables. After sitting down, it took several minutes before we were greeted. Our server brought waters and later took drink orders, but there wasn't much communication about timing or whether they were short staffed. Once we placed our order, we waited close to an hour for our food. We completely understand that restaurants can get busy and staffing can be tight -- we just would have appreciated a quick update along the way. A little communication goes a long way and helps set expectations. When our food arrived, part of the order was incorrect (we had requested a salad and soup substitution but only received fries). The server corrected it, and the food itself was good. It did come out at different times, and we noticed another table seated after us received their food much sooner, which was a bit confusing. We truly want to support Roy's and hope this feedback is helpful. With stronger communication and smoother service flow, it could be a great experience.
