This is one of the worst Paneras I've been to. Friendly service, dirty store. Lettuce was brown and wilted. Sunday afternoon...maybe a one off, but not impressed. read more

See all

I eat here once or twice a week as it is convenient to home *and* the variety of great food and drinks makes it easy to come again and again and try something new every time. Free wifi and plenty of seating too! read more

Panera Bread - Soup Near Me - Destin, Florida

Waited in the drive thru for 30+ minutes. I ordered you pick two and was given no lettuce, extremely heavy mayo and one was like 1/4 of a sandwich. My chicken noodle soup was cold and I got one carrot slice and chicken crumbs, I literally got flavored water. I drank the soup and threw the MAYO sandwich in the garbage. Worst $50 I've ever spent. read more

Last time I choose to come here. Staff doesn't care about severe food allergies and the staff is so rude!

Food is fine. Typical Panera but this is the third time I have been here and every time I am surprised by how dirty it is! Tables are not being cleaned off, stuff all over the seats and carpet. Yuck! Management really needs a person cleaning tables between people and keeping the floors and drink areas clean. read more

First of all. it was very slow, and my mom and i stood at the counter for 10 minutes before anyone helped us. then the front lady helped another customer before us. we decided to go to the digital ordering stand, which was really glitchy. we finally ordered. my moms soup bowl had mushrooms which she took off, my grilled cheese was burnt, and i asked for a baggette instead of chips and recieved chips. we got our pastries, my moms pecan braid literally had ONE pecan on it. DO NOT GO HERE. WORST EXPERIENCE AT PANERA EVER. read more

After we got order home we found out it wasn't what we ordered. The item was only about 6 bucks but I asked for a refund. It was not eaten and big disappointment to a kid. I communicated with a customer service rep online. Heather seemed dense and reading from a script. She offered me Panera points instead of a refund! Oh joy. Got food that was thrown away but she didn't care. I can go back to use points on more food I don't want. At that point it was about awful customer service and certainly not the money. I asked several times if she was submitting for a refund. I finally was assured she would. IF APPROVED, she said I could get a refund in 2 weeks on PayPal. Really? Am I living in the 1990s? BTW. if you order other than white bread for a kid you get half a sandwich. Yep. read more

The Panera bread in Destin Florida had a worker that messed up and put my friends $50 in the tip jar, my friend then asked where her $50 went when and Jessica told her that she put it in the tip jar. Elle proceeded to tell her that it was to pay for food and she then fixed it and got elles order out. Elle didn't check the change back and only got $28 Dollars in change when her meal was 11.59!! We proceeded to call Panera bread Destyn where the worker that missed placed the money was very rude and didn't do anything to help! read more

bread, bagels, breakfast lonely study days for you go to beach instead This is probably the most lush Panera I have ever been too. It's got these crazy high ceilings and is surrounded by the fancy mall goers of Destin, Florida. I just wish I had such a beautiful place to study up here in college central, Boston. Other than that, what can I say, it's a fancy Panera for fancy vacationers. read more

I always get fast service here. I recommend the select 2 deal. Broccoli soup is good. I would try their cuban sandwich.

I love panera bread.... But this place did not have their signature Mac and cheese!!! I came at 6:45 pm... My friend and drove a good bit to this panera and were really disappointed and walked out. I'll make sure to call next time and make sure they have food for me!!!! read more

Food is great, what you would expect from Panera, but the staff here are what makes this a good place to go. I go through the drive thru just about every morning for coffee and a bagel, and the staff (Que is super friendly and helpful) are always wonderful. The drive through might take a little longer than Starbucks (which is right next door), but that's because they aren't microwaving frozen premade foods-they are making it fresh. Coffee is always fresh, even at 3pm. Good quality food and great employees. read more

soup is cold, service people are rude. the wait was extremely long. this place sucks.

Great affordable restaurant in Destin common. Employees here are really friendly and professional. I'm here almost every week and I've never seen this panera being dirty. Especially satisfied with their rapid pick up, my order was never late and always accurate. Being a busy and popular site here in the mall, this panera is doing really good. read more

Turkey Bacon and Avocado sandwich is good, but the sour dough bread didn't blend with the rest of the sandwich. Broccoli and Cheddar soup was delicious as ALWAYS. The Broc and Cheddar bread bowl with a side salad with ranch... Yum!! It's a nice place for a quick lite lunch. My only compliant it's truly over priced $20+ for soup, salad and a half of a sandwich with one beverage not ideal. B read more

Patty, gotta ask: what exactly makes a restaurant "for women"? I like Panera too! Can't give these guys 4 stars though because "Not Just Bagels" across the way whips a Panera sandwich any day. But, Panera has it's upside too. Big salads, great soups. Cant get either of those from NJB. Plus, its conveniently located in the Commons. read more

Early morning, needed coffee ASAP!! Ended up dumping the acidic coffee rather than drinking it! Breakfast sandwich was, egg cheese and spinach was totally amazing though. Service friendly and prompt. read more

This place was a disaster. More customers than they could handle. The register locations were too. One in the middle and one at the far left. What's going on with that? We ordered 2 coffees and a bagel for her and of course they ran out of eggs at 10:24 am on a saturday so what i was gonna get turned into nothing. Went back to the counter a few minutes later bcuz i was starving, only to get passed over by other people bcuz apparently i wasnt in the right line anymore. This place needs a register sign or something. I like Panera and usually get the greek salad but for breakfast from now on I'll be going elsewhere. read more

Ate lunch here last week with my daughter. More of a restaurant for women than men. I had the 1/2 veggie sandwich and a greek salad. love how they have how many calories each dish has. I also had a chocolate chip cookie. Looking forward to going back and getting some bagels or other bakery items. The price was good for the amount of food we got and it has just a nice, relaxing place to sit and visit with my daughter. Also, they have wifi so I was able to play on my i-pad! read more

Panera is home of incredibly good sandwiches. I really wish we had one in the New Orleans location. This location is large and offers free wi-fi. read more

Had turkey and bacon sandwich with broccoli and cheddar soup and it was delicious. With a Blueberry muffin

Really upset over the customer service here. Sabrina was extremely rude and snappy not only to myself, but to my friends with me. We are Destin locals, Commons employees, and here on a weekly basis! I have never encountered someone so snappy and rude before. I asked for an additional piece of bread because my 3 year old dropped his on the floor, and rudely she said it would be 80 cents, I thought she was kidding - but she refused and would not give my son and I another piece of bread! Extremely unhappy and would like to point out how rude her behavior was. I hope management addresses this. read more

I love Panera Bread. I get the soup and half sandwich with hot tea. I get a different sandwich and soup each time. -Ron M.

Great food, but I have been here twice in a row around 7:30pm and they never have my bread available, BOTH times! This place is called Panera BREAD. Come on guys... read more

they got my order wrong and made the chai wrong..tastes like straight cinnamon. disappointing. downloaded this app just to write this review

Food was okay. Mostly, the restaurant is absolutely filthy. Floors are sticky, and tables and even walls are dirty.

purchased a dozen bagels and a couple sandwiches which were pretty good. As for the bagels we ended up finding small tiny bugs in them. I tried calling the store but no answer, I will definitely not be going back!! read more

One of the only Panera Bread locations to offer a military discount! Thanks Carmello!

I absolutely do not recommend. **Save your morning and go to the Starbucks next door.** I am 27 weeks pregnant and we are on our last day of vacation. I had really tough morning sickness this morning and went to this Panera location for a bagel sandwich. We chose to go through the drive through window, which was a complete mistake. 30 minutes in the line, and we watched 3 people jump the curb after ordering just to leave and go to Starbucks. Lil miss Kelly at the window was rude and cold and just handed us our bag. I wanted to check my food before pulling off to make sure it wasn't cold, and I could hear her through the closed window saying "stop eating in our drive through." My food was lukewarm but I was so sick that I just started eating it and told my husband to pull ahead and leave. My husband has managed a Panera bread for over a year and knows that their target drive through times are 3-4 minutes in the morning. He also knows what is expected as a MINIMUM from this company. When we called to speak to the manager in charge, she said she had no idea any of this was happening. How on earth do you not know that your drive through is running 30 minute times and that people are jumping the curb to leave their orders? This was absolutely inexcusable and I am shocked at the lack of professionalism at this location. read more

Don't get the shrimp dish in Destin FL. My wife got a bad case (ended up in the ER) after eating there for dinner May 28

I love the breakfast at Panera, but the location at the silver sands outlet mall has the absolute worst employees in the world. They are slow moving and mess up my order at least 80% of the time. Go to the Destin commons location, they have some sort of a brain. I'm a local, so don't ruin your vacation by going there. read more

We just used the Panera catering service from the Destin restaurant. It was wonderful! We chose sandwiches, salad, soup, chips, and cookies. Everything was fresh and delicious. They provided plates, eating utensils, and serving utensils. We will definitely use their services again! read more

ordered a salad they forgot to put the dressing. went back and they told me it was on the bottom, which of course it wasn't. they were so busy, that i didn't bother going up again. sandwiches were soggy. read more
