This is where I go to study between classes, when I want to escape campus but have no time to go home. I like most of their food and they generally don't mind me spending significant time there. I love their soufflés, their coffee is great too :) and for what you get the prices are reasonable. read more

Always love Panera. The You-Pick-Two is my favorite for lunch (broccoli cheddar soup is awesome!). Its busy during lunch, but once it calms down its also a nice place to study and do homework. Plus they have free wifi. read more

Their new kiosk ordering system is very cool! The lady working the counter when we walked in was very friendly and explained everything to us while we ordered. Our food came out so quick, our buzzer never went off. There was an older woman who brought us our pastry and cleaned up the table for us, she was so incredibly sweet I wanted to take her home with us. Just loved this experience. read more

Went when I was a kid in a different state. Liked it. Went to this one with a friend a few days ago and not impressed. A lot of people, I've heard have raved about it and it's not up to the hype. Don't get me wrong the food was good, just not amazing or exceptional. Found a hair in my not so great tasting ceaser salad.Straws and lids were not easy to reach. A woman named Holly was very helpful, kind and sweet. Not a huge fan of the cafeteria like setup. read more

I don't know how this panera is so much worse then others across the country, but it is. The Turkey Artichoke Sandwich I ordered today was almost inedible and this is my go to sandwich. The Chicken and Wild Rice Soup tastes likes its from a can. Never again Panera. At least not in Fairfield. read more

Very great place to have lunch or breakfast.love their pastries, hazelnut cream cheese and their ice coffe yummy also it's a very cozy place to eat and relax while having ur meal very neat and great service. I had their tomatoe basil turkey bacon sandwich it's was yummy I strongly recommend it read more

It was my first time at this location. If it wasn't for the wonderful lady that worked last night with white plugs, this place would get one star. The cashier, Desire, paid more attention to what was going outside than taking my order. I said yes when she asked if I wanted chicken on my salad but did not enter that. She also didn't ask if I wanted chips or baguette. Luckily I got chips although she entered baguette into the computer. I take partial blame I didn't check my receipt before leaving but it's apart of her job to get my order right. She also did not prepare my green tea after taking my order, but thank you to the miss that gave me my food for also preparing my drink! You da real MVP read more

Most US panera bread locations have bagel Tuesday for 6.99. It us d to be that price here but now Its 8.99 here. What a rip.

Sierra turkey was really good, great place for any meal.

Terrible customer service. 4 customers waiting in line with no acknowledgement. Food is always good.

This particular Panera is really annoying because the food is good but the service and atmosphere sucks. Every time I come here the dinning area is dirty. It seams no matter what time of day the floor always looks like it needs sweeping or vacuuming. The booths are scummy and need to be wiped down. And some of the tables are pretty wobbly. For these reasons I can't give this place more then 3 stars. read more

Still very good. This place has so much variety and yummy stuff. The cheddar broccoli soup is the best I have ever had!

Goservice . Nice and speedy . Food is fresh . The bakery is really good . Ordering over the app is very convenient while on lunch break you don't have to wait at all. read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Fairfield, California

The staff here is the worst! Don't go! Food took 20 minutes to go . People standing around looking clueless! Order all wrong also !

Tried it once on a date and out of curiosity. Calling themselves a bakery is a big stretch. It's a restaurant, plain and simple... basically selling high priced soup and sandwiches. Hey, if Starbucks can get $5 bucks for a cup of coffee, why not try the same routine with simple dishes at higher prices. Their goal, it seemed, was to get diners to eat lots of bread to fill their appetite. If you're a weight watcher, this place is definitely not for you. read more

I like the Fairfield store the staff is friendly unlike the Vacaville location.

Good food. Sub-par service . Cashier wouldn't take my $2off sandwich and contradicted without trying first. Eventually got my $2off. Nobody's cleaning tables. Lady we asked to clean gave attitude. NEED BETTER SERVICE. read more

Very cool staff! Our cashier, Lance, was patient and assisted us in a professional matter. We just moved here from another state & have never been here, so it took us a little bit to decide. One of our kids has allergies & we asked a lot of questions, but the whole time he was friendly & offered different solutions. I will definitely be back to try something new each time! That's what customer revive is all about. The experience. read more

The staff was friendly but the steak & white cheddar panini was AWFUL. That was my first and last time at Panera.

Customer service is good, they can tell you exactly what ingredients are in different entrees which is great and the food is always tasty

I wish I could give them a better overall review. The woman who waited on us was awesome, she even comped us a free fruit cup for my young son. However, the restaurant as a whole was pretty dirty. Tables were dirty, highchairs were dirty, bathrooms were dirty. The food is only OK... Definitely won't be going back. read more

I placed an online order from this location so it could be easily picked up with no mistakes. Needless to say, it was the worst order ever. Let's start with the soggy croutons put in the soup that made the soup not edible and the lack of a sprouted grain roll. Then there was the fruit and apples we ordered that were substituted with chips. The topper though was the ham and swiss sandwich with NO ham. So, a $40 lunch was basically a waste of money. Follow that with 3 messages left for a manager at the location and 2 reviews to corporate requesting to be contacted and still, not a word from anyone. read more

Went yesterday, they forgot to give us a cookie we ordered, then gave us two cookies when we brought it to their attention. Total class move - thanks!! read more

Two trips in two days both with disinterested staff. First trip Cold food that should have been at least warm no coffee and response from staff "well I will try to get to that (finishing with a yawn and smirk)" second trip very similar environment when store mostly empty and no one in line. Now understand why it is the quietest Panera I have ever been in read more

Where I start??? First I love Panera, but this location has disappointment so many times... you order your food because I just have time enough to go and pick up, we'll get there and food is not ready...and if is ready is wrong and when you need to say something the manager is to busy flirting with a coworker ( Sexual Harassment on the horizon) if you love Panera do your self a favor and don't come to this location... read more

I had not eaten at a Panera in awhile, and now I remember why. I had a half hour dor a quick meal and reaaonable meal. Not!! A bowl of soup, a sandwich, hot tea and a cookie was just shy under $20. I could have had a steak dinner for that price. The service was underwhelming, I for my food and had no time to eat it except try my soup. The French onion soup fair and lukewarm. The chicken and almond salad on the sandwich was maybe 3 oz. of filling for a full sandwich along with a 1oz bag of chips. The chicken salad had long strips of chicken breast mixed with mayo and shaved almonds thrown on top- not what I remembered at all. The tomato slice was the size of a quarter and thw letruce is the king that make s you choke when you eat it. Very disappointing.. A waste of money and a waste of time. Next time will take my food dollars elsewhere. I will not suggest meeting my family or friends there for a meal either. Disappointing. read more

Today I went in to Panera Bread on a whim to see if I still had credit to use on a rewards card. Gina helped me and I'm super happy with her warm smile and customer service. She didn't make me feel rushed as I was trying to use the EGC, and she even gave me a drink cup on the house because my birthday popped up for a free pastry! She didn't have to do that but it's much appreciated! Thanks Gina, YOU ROCK. read more

No matter when I've gone there the service has been is extremly slow. The food is not worth standing in line an average of 15 mins. just to place your order. They should either hire more staff or train the existing personnel to understand the meaning of customer service. After waiting 15 mins. for the single cashier I walked out and will not return. Unfortunately, the service is not any better at the Vacaville location. read more

Excellent service with a positive attitude! The employees are always helpful with a suggestion if you are just not sure on what to eat. The food is great and service is fast. The eating area is very relaxing and the free wifi makes the place more convenient for lunch breaks or study sessions. read more

The tomato soup is my go to with 1/2 Asiago sandwich. Avalon took my order, she stayed calm, cool and upbeat even though she seemed to be the only cashier read more

Today a lady with a child in her arms and small todler near her side were exiting the business and dropped a cup of water with ice with a lemon in the doorway. Told her I'd let management know to clean it up so she could be on her way. I did and nothing happened as I was telling customers as they were entering and exiting to watch out. Went back in and told the cashier if someone was going to mop this up. Told her this could be a potential lawsuit if someone slipped and fell. Her answer, they know. Well no cleanup but the least I could do was kick the lemon to the side. I would have taken a pic but I don't see an icon here to do it. Real dissapointed with management today, other then that, It's a nice place and the help is usually nice and efficient. read more

Just had a surgery a week ago and am still on a full liquid diet. They were so kind to make sure I had what I needed. The chicken broth from the soup is delicious. Everyone of the staff there were very friendly and courteous. Somebody taught these employees excellent customer service skills, what a nice experience! read more

Not too happy. We have movie plans and they are running very behind which they failed to disclose when we ordered making it likely we will miss the beginning of the movie. Pretty irresponsible! read more

This place has delicious food and coffee. The staff are very polite and professional. I enjoy eating here every chance I get.

Horrible customer service. They were completely annoyed with the fact they had to take orders. The customer service rep yelled at me and made me very uncomfortable. I will NEVER come back to this location. It is completely mis managed. Be aware of very rude workers of which management apparently supports this type of style. Wow. read more

Come here to waste your time I guess. Took me 35 minutes to get a single sandwich. Terrible service.

This is the worst Panera I've been to. The customer service was absolutely terrible, including the managerial service. When asking for a simple service, refilling the iced coffee container, an elderly servicer rudely walked away and ignored my request. I then proceeded to ask the manager for assistance, and she said she'd refill it. After waiting 30mins, finishing my meal, I again tried to get iced coffee but no one had refilled it. I asked the manager a third time if they could refill it, and proceeded to wait another 15 minutes. Still, after all that time, nothing was being prepared. While waiting, several other customers were becoming upset as it seemed every order coming out was either incorrect or orders were simply not coming out at all after waiting over 20 mintues. I then asked a FOURTH time for the serivce and the reaction of the elderly employee was her throwing her hands up at me and walking away without saying a word. I have never been treated so rudely at ANY Panera and will absolutely NEVER be coming back to this establishment again. read more

Took my daughter there for lunch. Was informed they don't take any bills larger then a twenty. Only had a bigger bill. Oh well their loss on a sale. read more

My sister and I went to Panera on Saturday, 10/13/2018. We ordered 2 full sandwiches, 2 coffees and 2 brownies. When, we received our food, we only received 1 sandwich that was cut in two. We brought this 2 their attention and they said they would get us another one. It took 45 minutes before we received the 2nd sandwich. The coffee was cold, the brownie was old and the manager did not accommodate our needs. She said the delay was because they were training someone. They ripped us off for $28.00 for food that was not served and terrible customer service. Discrimination- against senior citizens. We will never eat there again. read more

Terrible customer service. Went there on a Friday night around 8:00 pm. Tried to order a bowl of clam chowder but they were all out so I switched to french onion soup. When I picked it up, I noticed there was no gruyere cheese added to the soup. When I asked why, the staff told me they ran out of gruyere cheese but could add another cheese if I wanted. It would have been nice to know that before hand so I asked for a refund cause I didn't want the soup anymore - it was just beef broth and onions. They had to get the manager. The manager was apologetic and acknowledged the staff should have informed me before I picked up the soup and definitely should have told me before they made the order. The manager offered me a free "pastry" on the house but I declined since I already struck out twice with them. read more
