    Newly placed warning after news report that someone had died after consuming the stated drinks. Now u have to request the staff.

    My son enjoyed the chocolate chip cookie. Coffee was great too. Located among other establishments in the shopping area.

    ha ha! tiny sandwich
    Robin F.

    Broccoli cheddar soup is really really good. pastries are great. some of the sandwiches are really wonderful. I wish staff at both of the Panera I do go to or happier. I am seeing this across all places though not enough people want to work and it makes it hard for those who do. I wish more people were smiling because when you come in and get your coffee in the morning and a pastry or a bagel we enjoy it, and we wish that the staff even though we smile and they get a smile when we say good morning and have a wonderful day that they carry that through. when you can't cook at home Panera is a great spot for breakfast or lunch and their takeout is really fast. Consistency and quality is the same from one coast to the other which I am very thankful for. Sometimes the floors get a little dirty and tables not cleaned at the gainesville but I think that's also due to staffing problems not because they don't want it to be. Overall there are days I come in once to twice getting coffee and lunch or something for the drive home

    Menu/ place your order

    The first time I've been to Panera in at least 6 months and now I remember why. Ordered with a live human cashier and that was my first mistake, because Daniella didn't enter in fully half of our order. To his credit the server who brought the order went to make it right when I mentioned the lack of food for my kids. Still, I had completely finished my meal and still nothing for them, so I did the smart thing and went to the kiosk to order their food. 5 minutes later, there it was, and the order was correct. Lesson learned, use the kiosk, your order will be correct and you'll get it quicker. Now for the food itself, I ordered the green goddess salad and the half portion size I ordered was more than large enough, however the quality of the lettuces was evidently not monitored as I received an enormous (brown) chunk of stem in mine. The hard boiled egg had also seen better days and looked chewed up. Overall, the meal was just meh, and that's why the two stars rating. Quantity does not trump quality for me, and quality was definitely lacking here. As for service, they might as well not have human cashiers if they can't get an order right. Verdict, it'll be a long long time before I come back again. There are better fast options for less.

    "Cappuccinos" - here, it's just super-overpriced regular drip coffee with milk that will set you back $4.09 + tax for each
    A M.

    In general, I like Panera - I'm just extremely disappointed in their breakfast. We ordered a bagel, an egg, cheese and bacon brioche sandwich and 2 cappuccinos. The Asiago cheese bagel, something we usually get, was fine - great even. The breakfast sandwich was comically small (see pictures). It was absolutely dwarfed by the bagel, coming in around a mere 3" in diameter. It was even smaller than the coffee lid. Maybe I'm used to the sizes of breakfast sandwiches from BK, McDs and Starbucks (and maybe this speaks to portion sizes from these places) but for the price ($5.39 + tax!!!), I expect more. Finally the "cappuccinos". It was just coffee with milk. Not the characteristic foaming milk that would identify the beverage as a cappuccino tor anyone, just integrated milk. You can take a look at the pictures, but we'd be even hard pressed to even call this a caffe latte, as it's so weak I can't believe this started with espresso shots, and was most likely just made with regular drip coffee. And for the price - $4.09 + tax for each regular size??? Horrible and shameful.

    Chili w/ multigrain bread
    Neal E.

    Mixed reviews for this place. On the one hand, I had a good bowl of chili here recently, On the other hand, during another visit - I had a breakfast sandwich - sausage, egg, and cheese on a bagel. They slit the bagel, slid the premade ingredients into the slot, microwaved it until it was hotter than Hades, and served it up. The result? A soft, mushy bagel that burned the hell out of my mouth. Panera - learn to toast the bagels! I won't be ordering any breakfast sandwiches from them ever again!

    Unsliced and not toasted. I will eat it anyways because I have to go to work.
    Felicia O.

    First time coming here. I wouldn't be coming back. Is everyone sad and impolite early morning? Totally disregards your rapid pick order instructions

We ordered Brisket Seolleongtang and shared a Seafood Scallion Pancake - which is huge for two people by the way. The beef bone soup is so flavorful and only needed salt to taste. The broth was obviously cooked for hours and was really soothing. The service was fantastic. The lady serving us was in a rush but was really friendly. The prices were reasonable given the serving sizes of the food we had. The ambiance was casual and everything looks clean. I would love to come back soon!

I won't say perfect, but when factoring in the insane amount of food just default served, the freshness, and the taste, this was more than worth the money. Plus it's in northern Virginia. So. Good. Experience: A clean interior with little wooden boxes full of clean metal utensils on the table. Staff with genuine hospitality. Insanely quick service. Iced Korean tea and water served for free.

Not too salty. Not too sweet. But full of ingredient carried flavor in every bite picked carrot, spicy soup, or ox knee dipped in sesame soy sauce mix. It's even separated into convenient little bowls for customization, but without the inconvenience of basically cooking your own meals. Honestly amazing. I'll come here again if I stop off in Virginia. Maybe I'll go here just for this food. You should come here too. And bring everyone. This place doesn't deserve to get buried behind a mountain of fried oils. This is real food. The kind that helped define a culture.
