    What comes on the Bscon Egg Cheese Ciabatta   + $1.29 in extra bacon
    Markus D L.

    Just say No to breakfast sandwiches at Panera Bread. This morning, I had the most disappointing breakfast sandwich ever for $7.28. I always order through the app. This was my first taste of breakfast at Panera Bread and it will be my last. Ordered the Bacon, Scrambled Egg & Cheese on Ciabatta. Customized it by adding spinach & tomato, and paid $1.29 for extra bacon... Idk what part was the most disappointing. First, this sandwich was about the size of my cell phone. Guess it's ok for breakfast but I wanted something hearty. The taste was bland. It says salt and pepper was added but maybe they should add 2-3 dashes instead of a half dash. And the bacon??? I paid for extra bacon, thinking it would be like in the pic. There may have been 1.5 slices total, if that. It wasn't evrn thick bacon. What did I pay an extra $1.29 for??? I figured if the sandwhich wasn't good, I would still have the extra bacon to enjoy, but that didn't happen. Cutting up 1 slice of bacon into several smaller pieces does not constitute extra bacon. Also the set-up was weird. No one bothered to put my stuff in the pre order pick-up area. Had to ask where it was, It was waiting at the window where u get ur dine-in food. The lemonades/ teas aren't visible from that window, so I had to ask where that was. Then the drink lids aren't visible from the soft drink section. I had to ask where those were(on the side). It was way too much interaction in the morning esp when I'm late and trying to get in and get out. I think I'll stick to quick fast food when it comes to breakfast where I can get 2 sandwiches for $4-5. I just remove the bread and I'm still left with more bacon than came on this $7.28 sandwich. This location might be only good for soda and the pre-made lemonades/teas!

    Sandwich served half empty.

    We as a family eat at Panera 6 days a week, lunch every day and some days dinner. Most days breakfast as well. I have been to most locations in Connecticu, this is my least favorite. Their portions are significantly smaller than the rest, no almond milk, spoiled half and half and you can never find all coffees they offer. Almost always empty I guess for that reason. We live in Fairfield county but while our house was getting fixed we stayed at two different places and visited the Panera's locations close by. This was the closest to Branford but after our 3rd try we decided we rather drive to North Haven than coming here. Beautiful interior but that is all about it. I do not recommend this location. Very disappointed. Pictures are from our last visit.

    This Panera is located in the perfect location. We've been visiting here for close to a year. Every time, we place our order online for rapid pick up. I don't think we've ever eaten inside or used the drive through. Normally just place the order on the phone and then go inside to grab it. They have never gotten our order wrong, even when I add a bunch of additional items to an existing sandwich, it's always correct. Most recently, we placed an order for lunch for curbside pick up. As soon as we pulled into the parking lot, a Panera worker was waiting for us already outside, wearing a mask and gloves, literally flagged our car down and dropped our order through the window of the passenger side. We didn't even have to park! (We had put in the order notes the color and model of our vehicle) What amazing service!

    I can say it's your average Panera. It's not exactly going to wow you as a hit but it's convenient location off highway. Amble parking and cute location that I like to do meetings at. The staff is attentive and friendly but also has all mobile service or personal kiosk for those less inclined to talk with people.

    Fantastic menu. Great service. Love the rapid pick up. Have been going there ever since it opened in Guilford. Very pleased every time.
