Ordered a salad for carry out...they forgot the salad dressing....had a very dry and disgusting salad for lunch My advice is check your bag before you leave the store read more

Was tricked again. I like Panera's food. It's a shame really. This location is an absolute joke. I have been there 3 times, and EVERY TIME my online, filled out by me, hard to mess up, order is completely wrong. I now stand firm that I will NOT buy anything from this Panera ever again moving forward. What a waste read more

This place i very unorganized.. needs to hire better staff. Got my entire 86 dollar order wrong. It's a shame cause I love Panera.

This review is long overdue and I should have posted this much earlier. About two years ago I went into this Panera location and looked at their front door sign to see their hours of operation because it was getting late. It turned out they were going to close at 9 p.m....and that was in about 5 minutes. As I was walking away, the manager of this place walked out the front door and smiled. He encouraged me to come in and order. I was quite surprised with his hospitality as he appeared to be genuine and not irked, knowing it was almost closing time. That happened two years ago, and I still remember that kind gesture to this day. Since then I continue to return to this Panera location. Food is always consistently good but great service tops it. read more

This Panera Bread has been pretty good. The price is reasonable and it's quick. I usually come for breakfast and order either the oatmeal or the avocado egg white and spinach breakfast sandwich. Their bread is good too. read more

Panera Bread - Bowl of tomato soup - Sandwiches Near Me - Catonsville, Maryland

Stopped in for soup and a sandwich. Asked for a sample of a soup and the cashier was really nice and said he just had it too, and liked it. It was really good so I ordered it. The wait was fast and staff friendly. This location had large cups for water, that was great. The only bad part of my visit was that my grilled cheese had paper on the cheese. I was able to pick if off but was still disappointing. I carried out so I couldn't let me know. read more

Conveniently located off 695 on Rt.40 - great access to many of my accounts in the Columbia, Ellicott City, and Catonsville area. Phoned in an order for lunch around 9am, and it was ready to go for noon. Love the dedicated cash register for phone-in orders - so nice to skip ahead of the regular lunch crowd! Also, policy is to fill the soup, fountain and hot beverages when you show up, so these items do not cool down (or have ice melt) while waiting for you to arrive. Nice touch! Best part of my experience.... the new white cheddar Mac N Cheese was not only on the menu, but a staff member was greeting you at the front door with SAMPLES! Yum!! My new seasonal indulgence, Mmmmmm...... Second best part of my experience.... store manager helped carry bags out to my car. Thanks so much! I will certainly be placing more orders with your location! read more

Good customer service goes a long way! There's a girl named Gideon at this location who had me laughing the entire time I was ordering. Might I add, it was a pretty gloomy, rainy day. My new Panera favorite: Mediterranean Salmon salad with black bean soup. The salad barely has any dressing on it but is delicious!!! And the black bean soup has a bit of a spicy kick. read more

I ordered a chicken &becon flatbread.,Why is there no chicken&bacon ,only cheese and tomatoes, and it is so cold that it is not crispy, I threw it in the trash can，waste my money 。 read more

Service is extremely slow. Especially for curbside orders . Every time I've ordered a curbside order ive been waiting outside between 20-40 minutes. I've had to call for them to bring my food out , even though the app has a "I'm here" button . My food also ends up being cold because the food is never brought out in time. read more

One of the best Panera's i've been to. Kitchen staff are obviously working together to produce a quality product. Cuban sandwich was great, and chicken fuji salad tasty (wish they didn't go to the dried apples, though). Front cashier staff also are friendly and work well together. Shout out to Xyon who is spectacular doing this, friendly, thorough and precise. She will go on to do great things!! Thanks. read more

I love this panera! I been coming here since it first open! I live right behind here so why not! It's always clean! The Staff knows me! Oh to well!! Food is always good! They make enough soufflés lol!! I just never had a problem! With this location! Lunch rush be be crowded but the food is always right! Hot and fresh!! And I get coupons all the time . When you sign up for card! read more

See all

So, I usually go the the one on Security Blvd. I was in the area and stopped for my usual Fuji Chicken Salad. The chicken was rock hard. Not over cooked but frozen. Did anyone know that the chicken is all previously frozen. I didn't!!!! That makes me fell some kinda way... Maybe it's just me. But next time... Please thaw your previously frozen chicken before you empty it into someone's salad. read more

This Panera is an occasionally trip for me. It is close to the college I attend, the food here beats the college cafeteria food any day. This local is similar to most others I have been to. Many places to sit and gather, good food, and good drinks. There is nothing to complain about with the food. The staff is sort-of aloof. I am not sure if was just the employees today or if they are always like this. The cashier was friendly, made sure she had my order correct before she completed the sale. The staff making the food are rather loud. I sat over 10 feet away and could still hear every conversation. Not all of the conversations were work appropriate. It was a little uncomfortable... I will be back here for future lunch breaks; I will just try to sit father away from the kitchen next time. read more

Panera is like my go to place when I don't know where else to grab a bite. The line in this particular store was pretty quick. The food also came out pretty fast. The staff was friendly. Overall the establishment was fairly clean. Of course some customers leave their messed behind and when there's a rush they aren't always cleaned as quick as they are left behind. No deduction for what is out of their control. read more

I've never really been in a PB before and wow! The service was excellent! The food was great and I had a vanilla latte and holy crap, it was the best latte I have ever had. I wish I had gotten the gentleman's name that made it so I could give him credit here. read more

This morning I came in for a rapid order. When I ordered prior to coming in I selected the wrong store. 1st off the entire staff greeted me when I walked through the door. I must have looked a little lost since it was not busy and I sat down. One member of the team ask if they could help me and I stated I had a rapid order. I was extermly impressed by the cosmuter service of Kyshuan. He took a look at my phone and said I had order to another location but "No worries Miss, we will take care of you". That they did! Quick and professional. The fact that they did not make me feel like I messed up (clearly I had), made my day! read more

They used to have great ambiance and good portions. Lately portions have become smaller and food not served very warm. Renovation somehow missed the mark. A few of the paintings look very 80's. I do like the staff though and location is good w a pier 1 and goodwill close by. Perfect for meeting the girls for a quick lunch. The chicken avocado Cobb salad is very delicious and the turkey avocado panini is good too. But the prices have increased and portions decreased why oh why can't it be the opposite? read more

Thought I'd try this Panera out since it's close to home. What can I say, it's a chain. The bagels or fresh in the morning and they are generally tasty. The coffee is average. Service is fast but not always friendly. read more

Hey, what's to say. I'm here consistently every Tuesday and Wednesday morning before work. What I love about Panera in general is their steadfast consistency and quality of their product. So usually chains only rank 3 stars but this Panera is different, their staff is super friendly and personable especially Ayesisha who is an absolute doll and the highlight of my breakfast visits. For this reason this Panera ranks 4 stars m read more

Panera Bread - Awesome employee - Sandwiches Near Me - Catonsville, Maryland

I stopped by for a online order pick up. I happened to walk in to store at the same time with a staff named 'Herb'. He hold the door for me as a good gesture- he seems genuine, a great customer service!. I ordered a turkey sandwich & they put a pickle on the second paper wrap so the bread won't be soggy- very thoughtful!. I just signed for free coffee for 3month promotion & it was easy and got my first free iced coffee. I think I am going to like stopping here often. read more

I love panera bread they are great everything is fresh natural and delicious . The cinnamon crunch bagel is a peace of heaven with the hazel cream cheese yummy ... read more

Very, very slow service. Got my food to go, but there was a whole line of people waiting. The manager was on the line helping to get things done and all the staff was friendly and nice. Hoping that maybe I just happened to come in at a time when they were just under staffed. read more

I love this location as it's close to home, and I always appreciate that I can order lunch items (sandwiches) for breakfast here. The service is great, as is the atmosphere, and parking is more than adequate. I make regular business trips to Germany, where bread is unlike anything we can get here, but this is as close as I have found, and that includes the bakeries that are also located in Catonsville that supply the local Baltimore restaurants. Just remember that the card they give you for credit for points doesn't work on their website, so use your phone number to check in when you get there and throw the card away as we don't have enough room in our wallets for more cards anyway. That's not a show stopper if you know... Their website sucks, but that should not preclude you from visiting any Panera location. read more

I love all the Paneras, but whoever chose to put one in this location had a great idea. Around here, there's a McDonald's and Burger King on every corner, so this is a nice welcome change. From soups to sandwiches to salads, I don't think there's anything on this menu I haven't liked. Even with the lunch crowd, the staff does their best to get you in and out in a reasonable amount of time. There's also free samples of bread to nibble on while you wait in line. And unlike the aforementioned establishmments, I've never had them mess up something on my order. It also makes a good meeting place for school and work assignments because of the internet access. I just wish they were open a little bit later in the evenings. read more

So here's the problem... I ordered a seasonal green salad but I was given a green goddess.... come on people how hard is it to get the order right. So over this location. Went here on New Year's Eve for lunch and it was packed. People hoard tables. It's crazy. read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Catonsville, Maryland

I won't go too much into their menu. I suggest you look online. Most things are as good as they sound. However, I'm going to be very unpopular in saying the strawberry poppyseed is not tasty to me. My favorite things are the lemon orzo chicken soup, the frontenga chicken panini, and the retired tomato and Mozzarella panini. I believe you may still be able to order the tomato and mozz panini, since they now offer it as a flatbread and usually let you customize your order. The French onion soup is also delicious, as are most things I have tried. The employees at this location have always been great, especially the people who put the food together. I used to stop here a lot when I worked close by and they always greeted me while they were working. The loss of a star is for the women's bathroom. The floor is always wet when I go in. I think some of the plumbing is leaking. Maybe the sink? Also, once they forgot my salad dressing :( other than that, no complaints. read more

Every time I order for pickup or delivery something on my order is wrong. It is always just two soups and two half sandwiches and they can never get it right. This is by far the worst location I've ever dealt with. read more

Panera used to be the spot. It was so good always! Now I feel like every panera I go to kind of sucks. Also - all their best menu items keep getting taken away. The breakfast sandwiches used to have variety and be really good. Now they are pretty gross. I love over easy eggs but not the ones panera is now putting on their sandwiches. Usually when I come to this spot the customer service is just okay. I ordered lunch for my coworkers today and wow I was disappointed. I sent the order through at 1032 and had to remove my breakfast sandwich because breakfast is over at 1030. Okay it's an automated system, that's fine because their breakfast sandwiches suck now anyway! I ordered 2 items that were clearly marked as no cheese - one for a vegan friend and one for a friend with a severe dairy allergy. Guess what? They both had cheese. One looked like it had been premade and they tried to pick out the biggest pieces of cheese before wrapping it up. All of the sandwiches were simply thrown in the bag wrapped loosely in paper. Nothing except salad was in a container. Just super disappointed. read more

I love love love panera bread, i have yet to get something on their menu that isn't amazing :') it's such a nice warm cozy vibe!! read more

Panera Bread - my amazing panera - Sandwiches Near Me - Catonsville, Maryland

Please, please STAY aware from this Panera place..first off, they won't have all the items you ordered and they will cancel your order & still charge your card for items not delivered. The worst part is that you will be going back & forth with the manager to get your money back to the extent That I have to involve my credit card company.... highly disappointed with the service and will never place any order from this store ever again or even eat Panera again...:( read more

Maybe it's just because i worked at the Dobbin location years ago that I can notice the difference in standard. But it's pretty upsetting that while trying to just order a bagel from the bakery, 6 people deep in line, that the trainer has his back turned to the line of customers, wiping crumbs off the cutting board. Manager gave me an attitude for waiting in front of the bakery register as well (after asking me if i was trying to order lunch and i responded "no, id just like to order a bagel") and told me to go wait at registers 400 and 500, then proceeded to have a full on conversation with said trainer in the bakery while ignoring the line of customers. "No Jerks Our relationships are based on respect & honesty." "Rule #1 We form a connection through our authenticity & service." Good job guys. read more

I have been to this Panera Bread for awhile now and let me tell you. This place is amazing. The service here and the food just always makes me want to come back here more and more. Sometimes I eat by myself on lunch break and they have nice booths on the side that I like to sit at when on my lunch break. Or small booths are good for people who do not need a lot of space. The food is always fresh. There is a pet peeve about me. I like my soup very hard, because the hotter, the better it tastes. Usually they pour the soup first and then make the sandwich. I don't know if people like their soups Luke warm, but I don't personally. And sometimes I wish the workers would work a little faster because they do have a tendency to talk a lot while working. I mean I don't mind, but sometimes it does delay their work. But overall, this Panera is great and if you ever had a problem, management is very well set up here. Oh, they now have a pickup station where you can pick up your order without talking to anyone, which is a nice system. read more

Went in at closing and had an issue with the coupon. The manager took care of it with no problem. Very friendly! Will be back for sure.

warning to all people about to buy the gift card at panera bread. this is my story: may 17/ 2023 i bought 2 gift cards $50 each one total $100 for both but only 1 card has $50 another it didn't active (it mean no money in that card). so today 2;50 pm july/04 i come to the panera bread store to ask about why my gift card no active and 2 ladies both name ms, mrs: are santa and i showed to them my transaction number : panera bread # 203587p , catonsville, md : 000021228. they didn't care about what i am saying to them, they said to me to call customer service and i called to customer service and she said that ok but 2 ladies they are not agreed that and they said that my fault and they yelled crucify me. they don't want to listening my story. they don't care customer , the customer service is worse, the banera bread is stealing the money from the customers. now i not just them anymore . i feel so hurt . so finally, when you buy the gift at panera bread you should be carefully ( no money in the gift card). i am hoping you will not lost your money. worse customer service read more

This is my go-to Panera location because the food is always consistent, the service is fast, the employees are super friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and cozy!! The broccoli and cheddar soup, apple fuji chicken salad, or a panini is usually what I get in a Pick 2 deal which can't be beaten! I love the Catonsville Panera! read more

This location has a lot going for it. Plenty of parking, large seating area with a fire place, and most importantly a friendly and helpful staff. It can however get pretty crowded at meal times and running out of the soup you want is always a bummer. Also cooperate seem to change the menu items a lot which is nice in a way but also leads to losing some items I'd grown to like and a bit of a growth curve by employees sometimes. In general though if you want to sit down relax and maybe study or surf the web there aren't many better places to do. read more

Really messed up this time, salads were wrong, had to send back both of them, one had all of the ingredients I did not want, one had no croutons, no cheese, and last but not least they forgot the DRESSING. BUT, overall good staff members, good food. read more

Terrible!!! I'm so done with the Panera franchise. It started off as a really good place to go for better fast food options, but lately the food is simply bland and their customer service is lacking. Today, I ordered the Chicken Salad sandwich. The bread wasn't fresh. The chicken salad was horrible... just watery and bland. It had absolutely no flavor. It was the most disgusting chicken salad sandwich I've had. I'm so disappointed. Panera used to be my favorite place to go. read more

This place is pretty good. Everything is usually good. However I got chicken noodle soup once and got terribly sick. A lot of stomach cramps, I'll just leave it at that. So I'll never get soup from Panera again, same happened with my mom when she got soup from this location. Sometimes the croutons are extremely hard as well. And I once got an apple that was a little yucky. Other than that this place is pretty good! Just avoid the soup lol. read more
