I was so shocked at how good the soup was! I'm always disappointed with soups that are supposed to be cheesy, but just never have that depth of flavor that I'm looking for, but the second I tasted this, I was in heaven. The amount of bacon in the soup was plentiful and definitely not unwelcome. The sandwich was a great as well. The flavor was great, the meat was juicy, and the bagel was shockingly thick. I will say, the steak and sauce soaked into the bun pretty immediately and made it decently soggy, so I would eat that as quickly as you can if you don't care for that. I went on a Monday afternoon and it was pretty busy, but it wasn't loud at all. The booth was comfortable and I was there with my husband for a few hours and it was a really nice time. When I first got there, I had put in my order and then realized I left something important at home, so I went up to the workers and asked if they could hold off my order until I got back. They immediately said yes, and even remembered my order before I could tell them what it was when I came back. 10/10 read more

HI HO to the spiffy pepper boys of Saint Louis Bread ACCCCK I mean Pantera Bread Co. Savor your taste buds of delicious delis, sandwiches, cherries and lollipops however DO NOT order a bread bowl, alas as they have none most evidently! A tragic tale it was with my order, wherein the recipt of sales purchase indicated as such a Bread of bowl shaped bread but was delivered instead a lazy baguette and 6 Oz bowl of peasants soup. Doth protest! But if ye seek all else except the hollowed carved holies of bowl breaded breads then drink tea and be merry! read more

We ordered from online and had it delivered which they were super speedy during the lunch hour. The soup and sandwiches were still hit along with the coffee! The food tasted great, ordered their BBQ chicken and broccoli chicken soup. They brought extra napkins along with utensils which is a huge plus. read more

It it is so frustrating to go in and place an order only to get home and find that our Chicken Fuji Apple salad doesn't have any chicken x2 -- both were wrong! Now, if this was an occasional situation, we could overlook having to cook chicken tonight to go on our $28 vegetarian salads! It may seem like we over-exaggerate except that we quit using the drive through b/c 85% of the time we have the same issue - wrong orders. If you don't QC the food at this location, chances are your order is wrong! Sadly, when I called the store and explained, they said I could come and get the chicken ‍. Sorry - no; did I mention we were cooking it? I was transferred to someone lacked good CSM skills and who was not apologetic; she coldly said I will refund your money. As far experiences go, I suppose a refund was great, but where was the "we're so sorry your order was wrong again", or "we apologize for your inconvenience", or a novel idea "we are working on quality checking each order", blah, blah, blah! It is so sad the Panera doesn't really care about accuracy at this location, it's just lip service. Otherwise, the situation wouldn't keep repeating itself. Just read the other reviews and see for yourself! read more

I just went to get bfast there and I ordered an iced coffee and a sausage egg cheese sandwich. I got a coffee with no ice. I got a bacon egg cheese sandwich, which I wouldn't mind but there's only ONE little piece of bacon. If you're going to charge $10 for a sandwich , make it right and give me more than one slice of bacon. Have a wonderful day. read more

No longer a bakery Quality and service has gone down hill Not the same company it used to be read more

I forgot that the last time I ate here in a dead dining room that it took 15 minutes to ladle me a bowl of soup which was the full extent of my order. Now at 9 am today on a quiet Sunday, I'm told all but 1 coffee option not available yet. Should be 3 minutes for the hazelnut I wanted. Finished my food and 20 minutes later still no additional coffees brought out. Management has clearly declined in recent years. Good service used to be a thing here but I can't recall the last time that happened. read more

I tired for the last two Sundays to eat breakfast at St. Louis Bread. The first Sunday I waited at the counter for 5 minutes and saw no staff. so I left. This past Sunday I went in , no one was behind the counter but another lady used the kiosk on the counter so I did the same. No one was around to give me a coffee cup. When I finally saw someone come out of the back room I asked for a cup and was met with a scowl. Poor service and unfriendly. It used to be one of my favorite places. I'm done with it. read more

My in app order was done quickly even though they were very busy. But it would have been nice if there had been some chicken on my chicken salad. I'll try them again but will check my order the next time, before I leave the store. read more

Service was minimal, food was fine, but the condition of the restaurant was atrocious!! The drink area was disgusting, there were no straws or lids, the tea dispenser was in serious need of a wipe down, ALL of the tables in the dining room were dirty, and the floor looked like it hadnt been cleaned for weeks. Soooo​ disappointing. We hadn't been in for several months and won't be coming back any time soon. read more

Just left there ordered 53.00 worth of food which there isn't much. When I got home I was just appalled. Not only does the new menu suck but the sandwich was awful. Chicken avocado BLT. Ha not even close. They were out of sauce no avocado at all. I literally got 3 slivers of bacon the size of a finger nail. Not sauce like they said they would put mayo but nothing and just fell over when opened. Bread not even as big as my palm. I won't be going back. Too expensive for the quality and amount of food. Digging your own grave Panera. You know if everyone would boycott them they would have to change!!! read more

There was a slight mixup in my order, and Devin took care of it right away. Amazing service.

I love eating here when I am in Missouri! The Mac and cheese is pure comfort food! All of their baked goods are delicious. The horseradish is a bit too overpowering. read more

Just when I think this place cannot get worse it does. I ordered thru the app to pick up in the drive thru. I've learned to check my order before I pull away, but today it was packed for the lunch crowd so I quickly checked. It appeared to have a kids bow of broccoli cheddar soup with yogurt and a baja bowl with bread. What I had when I got home was a pasta bowl with cheese and broccoli and a baja bowl with avocados with all their skins still on and black and brown. My rice was not even cooked. I hope people read this review because this is a consistent pattern of poor food and service at this location. read more

Brought home chicken noodle soup for my sick husband that had about 10 noodles in it. it was basically a bowl of broth.

Food quality 3 Service 5 Decor n/a Cutlery/tableware n/a Pricing/value 2 Portions size 2 Called for delivery but was redirected to app download for online ordering. Love the effort put into the app. Well done! App earns a 5 star rating. The order arrived within the delivery window by their own dedicated delivery drivers. Approximately 45 min after order was placed. The delivery man was a good representative of Panera Bread. The tomato basil was good and sandwiches a little less so. They are best consumed hot off the griddle. The overall value equation is a 3 primarily because of the price, food quality and portion size. read more

Not sure what is going on here. I've not had an accurate order with pickup, ever. (Seriously) They aren't coming to you so if you want it made right, or your food, you gotta go back. Recently (and my last experience I'll have here) I ordered via the app, never received my food. Called the store and the reply, "oh, I guess the door dash driver didn't want to deliver it". Are you kidding me? That was August 2nd. I've since called customer service 3x to get the $30.01 charge refunded back. No refund. Processed my August expense report the other day WITH the charge on there, spent an hour & 45min on the phone with a lovely, Alex who couldn't help me and all of his managers were busy so my issue is still "in the que". But, back to the local store.. it's usually dirty, wipe your own tables people! I'm not sure if it's me as an "older millennial" or my short patience these days, but why does the girl taking my order at like I'm making it so hard for her? Most of the time, it's this lackadaisical attitude here. read more

I went today the first time after many months and ordered an oatmeal and a large cup so I could get water. Because let's face it the drink selection sucks! Pepsi is terrible the tea is terrible it's all terrible. Now I gave them an opportunity today, and I was charged 2.79 for a large cup to get water! And when I asked about it they said oh she thought you wanted soda. Which she plainly asked me if I wanted a water cup. So no she was charging me for a water cup. I went to the restroom and it smells like urine in there. I won't be back. The trip prior to this was when they used to use the extra large slices of bread for the turkey and egg sandwich. Then they made regular size loaves of bread and used those slices. And then after that they used those regular slices and cut them in half and called that a breakfast sandwich and still charged the same price or more. The portion sizes are extremely small! read more

I just came in after a small mistake in the drive through and the girls were so helpful and kind! They remade my food and I asked for a chocolate croissant separately and they provided it. Such a good staff! read more

Never a good experience in this particular Panera. The customer service is below expectation and any time there's a slight problem, the manager looks irritated even though they were at fault. Do not recommend read more

My friend Dawn said this was where/ how Panera started so we thought we'd check it out. I was able to use my Panera card and some signs say Panera. Tasted just like Panera-what can I say! read more

This is what we call Panera Bread out east. A little more expensive than fast food that comes out super fast! You can do a pick 2 with half a sandwich and cup of soup. Lots of cakes and cookies, fresh coffee and refillable beverages. My turkey avodado blt without the b plus a bowl of summer menu corn chowder with a coffee ran almost $13!

This location is so comically bad every single time I have visited that it prompted me to leave a review which I rarely if ever do. They've never once been able to make our order correct, they don't have the bread, we're out of cheese, we don't have any avocado, etc. If you order online they'll just throw together whatever they want/have with no remorse. It's a shame they'll keep getting business with very few options in the area. Get it together. read more

Omg they can't take the bread off your plate that they only touched to cut it. Asked for a paper menu they have none. I won't cone here again read more

The woman at the register was very rude when I had a question about something I had spoke to the manager about a few days prior, and I even saw her get smart with a customer who hadn't gotten their food in 10 minutes. Manager was very nice and understanding. read more

I went through the festus location on 3/19. I ordered a half Steak and White cheddar sandwich and drink. I've ordered it before and it was good but today....not so much! The meat was scarce, cold and rubbery. The bread was so hard it cut the top of my mouth and there was no cheese?!! Just this thin, cold slice of meat. And....I was given no receipt or even napkins. ‍. This lunch was paid through my business account, so I need a receipt. Once I realized I had no receipt I called and asked for it to be emailed to me. I was told no but that I could come back to get it. That wasn't an option! I was already past a turn around point and was heading south for a meeting. When I explained this to the lady who answered the phone, she asked another person what to do. The other person said for me to come back. Ugh! Finally she said she would text me a picture of the receipt. Well....I never received it! Over $11 for a half of a cold, hard and meat-lacking sandwich and I couldn't even get napkins or a receipt. Do better! read more

For some reason every time I come to St Louis BREAD Co they're out of BREAD. Literally the last 3 times I've gone here over the last few months they've been out of baguettes AND flatbread. Then when we said we were leaving because they couldn't make our order without the proper ingredients, we were given a dirty look and a sarcastic "Okay then" from Danielle, the girl at the counter. I've never received good service here, even when they have the means to make my food. I'm definitely going to try to get anyone to think twice before going to this location. I very much hope they will improve, but until they decide to get it together with their ordering and with their staff, I will not be returning to this St Louis Bread Co location. Sorry for the lengthy review, but they need to step it up if they want repeat customers. read more

Beware: this location will mess up your Rapid Pick up order EVERY time! This morning they "forgot" to give us a loaf of French baguette and a drink cup. Even if you place an order to eat there, they will still make a mistake of some sort. Check your orders before you leave! And the kicker: they NEVER apologize! Ever! In fact, they act like you've inconvenienced them with your request to fix the order. read more

Love this place and it's food I come here before I go to work a lot. It's not too loud unless high schoolers are here. It's just a calm place to eat a sandwich. The tables and eating area could be a bit more clean but you can usually find a nice one. read more

I just want to bathe in their turkey chili. The sandwiches and stuff are just OK but the chili is delish. I do a little happy dance every time it comes back each fall and I am very sad when they take it off the menu in the spring. read more

Went through the drive through on Wednesday evening. It took quite awhile because this place is popular. As part of my order I wanted a 4 pack of cookies. When I got back to the hotel I was not happy to find there were no cookies in my order. I called the manager and she said I could come back and get them and I told her I would come tomorrow. Thursday evening I went thru the drive thru and explained the situation and ordered a Greek salad for my dinner. When I got up to the window the manager had comped my whole order to make up for my inconvenience. Now that is great customer service!!! read more

The Manager named Jake is so nice!! He was so accommodating and helpful! Fantastic service. Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness, Jake!! read more

Love St. Louis Bread Co., but this store never has the breakfast bread you ask for. I did my first rapid order today and of course they were out of the bread my sandwich called for so they didnt make my order. Didnt call even though my number is on my order so they could complete my "rapid" order. read more

Meh. The friendly employees win it the 2 stars. I'm still angry about the removal of my favorite sandwich, the Italian Combo from the menu, but I thought I'd give it another try. I had the Turkey Avocado BLT that fell apart the second I picked it up and the chicken noodle soup. The soup was fine, but didn't wow me. The best part of the meal was the baguette. read more

Panera Bread - Thank you to the St. Louis Bread co for their support!!! Great food and even greater people! - Sandwiches Near Me - Festus, Missouri

Please start listening to drive thru customers orders and actually giving us what we ask for.

This is my go to place for something quick. I've never had any issues with my order and the staff has always been really nice to me. The kitchen sink cookies are probably the best cookies in the world. I also love that the menu changes with the seasons so you're always trying something new. read more
