In search of a place to work remotely while visiting the area, I landed on Panera as I can always trust their WiFi and relatively quiet dining area. I usually order a Caesar salad, but ironically I don't like their Caesar dressing, so I usually just eat it without dressing. Today I decided to try the Greek Salad with modifications (removed the olives and added croutons, pickled onions, papadew peppers and corn). I ordered the dressing on the side as I'm super picky when it comes to dressing. My salad was ready within 5 minutes and was very fresh and vibrant. The Greek dressing was actually really good, so I'm glad I have a new go-to here! read more

Panera in CDA continued to go downhill! The coffee is not being watched. The tables do not get cleaned. Orders are screwed up. Panera needs to close this location and start fresh. read more

Another stop.. Another State.. Another Panera! We love the sip club and have been to dozens of locations. We ordered in the app, walked in and grab our cups.. easy peasy. Dining area was clean, employees were nice and the coffee was delicious. read more

Panera Bread - Salad Near Me - Hayden, Idaho

Gets order wrong alot.. can't go anymore. Any place is only as good as their staff.. one bad apple theory..

This place is unbelievable, I go through drive through and tell the lady I want the 4.99 deal got a cup of soup and half of sandwich, I get to window and its almost 14 bucks, so I ask and she says well u didn't order the right soup and sandwich, like are u kidding me she could have told me that at the window, so I ordered a cold brownie because the ones they leave out are always dried out and hard, she didn't get me one that was cold and well it was dried out and hard and not to mention that the bread on my sandwich was dried out to the point I could hear it when I tapped my finger on it, absolutely ridiculous seriously I go their at least once a week, obviously my mistake because every single time I go their, there is a problem with my food wow unavailable!!!! read more

The food is fresh and the service excellent! When things don't go our way, sometimes these young adults are forced to deal with rude adults. Quite possibly the drive through fields that even more. I was quite impressed with the grace and professionalism in which the manager, Emily, dealt with our specific food challenge. The stars aren't for a perfect experience. We are all human so that's not a practical expectation. It's a lot for these young adults to deal with. I also appreciated the way they seemed to work as a team. They seem to be dealing with a lot. They deserve a raise! To this Sunday crew, may the Lord bless each of you! These 5 stars are for you! read more

the chicken soup was bad. i threw it out after second bite. next day got mild reaction of stomach pain and fever. Smelled like dishwater.

Order ready on time, fresh ingredients, friendly staff, clean- great overall experience!!

This is the worst Panera I have ever been too. And I've been to many. The place is dirty. They only have one person at the register with 6 people in line. I've been here multiple times hoping it will improve. It doesn't. Then when you place an order it takes a long time to get food. Even just a toasted bagel. Skip this Panera. It's horrible. read more

I think the picture speaks for itself. Ordered a Beefy Dip. This is what I was served. It was terrible. Food was thrown together that didn't look appetizing at all. read more

Panera Bread - Salad Near Me - Hayden, Idaho

In my experience their salads are not the best, strawberries were slimy but everything else has be n good.

Wonderful fresh food, ambiance so relaxing...the staff super helpful and friendly, always going the extra mile to make everything right. I really enjoyed the chicken bacon rancher sandwich, it's yummy. I would highly recommend giving this place a try!!! I give it 5 stars for sure!! read more

Good food, Nice breakfast & lunch atmosphere. Drive thru service, is fast & efficient. Definitely recommend it.

Food is ok but wait time is horrible. Ordered 1 sandwich got sent to the car waiting area waited 20 minutes still no food. We'll there went my lunch hour won't even have time to eat. No excuse 12:30 only 2 cars in drive thru. read more

they were fast even when the resturant was busy and i'd recommend this place and the mac n cheese was really good.

It is a safe choice for a lighter breakfast, and their bread products are always good. We didn't want a big heavy meal before traveling to our next destination, and they were a decent choice even though my Hubby rolled his eyes at his sandwich. He was less than pleased that there were no hot sauce options available, also. read more

Panera Bread - Toasted everything bagel - Salad Near Me - Hayden, Idaho

See all

What has happened to this place? Last month we went for a bagel in the morning and they were out of bagels. We decided to try again today. I ordered a sausage and egg on a bagel. After a 15 minute wait in the drive through we got our food and drove away. I discovered that my bagel had no sausage and had mayonnaise. I will never give this horrendous place my money again. Seriously, fix your problems or you will be out of business. read more

Went to get a to go order and found a long huge hair at the bottom of my mac and cheese.... gross and inappropriate...this is second time i find hair in my dang food at this location.... i talked to manager that says ooops sorry i can replace your item" what is wrong with them why would i trust you guys again! How about tell your dang employees to wear their hair nets and keep their nasty hair out of our food......manager is the reason this place sucks she does not care how place is ran and lets employees probably even spit in our food..... never will eat at this location again. Oh and also always flies in this store pooping on the desserts and bread gross!!! Lol honestly i dont know how this place gets buisness they dont even try to hide the grossness..... read more

Good experiences only, at the Hayden location. I had an order screwed up twice at the Spokane Valley location, but when I asked for a replacement item from the Hayden store, the manager corrected the mistake and gave me a replacement meal complementary. I've always gone through the drive-through and my food has been correct 10 out of 10 times. I really enjoy the chicken. Baja salad bowl; great flavor. FREE GLUTEN FREE SUBSTITUTE They will sub your side of bread for a side of potato chips. read more

AMAZING food, service, ambience!!! workers are helpful, understanding, and make the panera experience worth coming back! read more

Way too expensive and service quality was not that great. Food was good but too pricey for what you get. Ambiance was not impressive. There is a lot they could do with this place to make it a much more attractive place to dine at. read more

Everything is great here. Food, service, and seating. Staff is friendly and courteous! Love it!

Your guys Mac and cheese are amaizing especially for the Little kids.nice and quite for studying also.good work thank you

Extremely long wait in line. Then finally received our two bagels they were stale, cold and rock hard. Horrible.

Twice, I found a hair in my sandwich. although offered a replacement and then a refund, how can I ever enjoy Panera food? Be cautious, readers/eaters; check your food! read more

The food is alright, but service is bad and they are super overpriced, go to zips or killer burger instead

This is a place kind of like the Starbucks of Sandwiches. Not a place that you get more or even your true worth money to product. Not like the pictures in the window. Got a turkey bacon avocado sandwich and got 1 slice of each. Fancy lettuce and a small pickle spear on the side and small bag of kettle chips for 17 dollars. I am not the biggest eater but I still was hungry after I left. Will not go back again. Also cashiers were Asian and were very difficult to understand but very nice. read more

My husband and I went to Panera Bread for lunch in Coeur d'alene, Idaho on Feb. 7, 2022. We ordered large Cobb salads. They were delicious. My husband wanted Bleu Cheese dressing for his salad but they didn't have it. He was disappointed, because they sure had a lot of other dressings but not his favorite. Other than this, service was fast. We enjoyed the bread but would have enjoyed it more if it came with butter. We ate inside the restaurant which was pleasant. read more

The food was good, I had the greek salad, however the sandwich that I had was scarce of chicken meat. The service didn't take too long. I like the layout of the inside. The prices were good. There is ample parking outside. I might go back again to try out other menu options. read more

Ordered a you pick two and took it home-- a greek salad and french onion soup. The micro-salad filled a third of the "small" salad container, there were just a few pieces of lettuce, the lettuce was pale, and there was no feta on the salad. There was maybe a tablespoon of dressing in the container. The onion soup was missing its croutons. The price was definitely higher than the quality. This is my fourth try at this location over the last couple of years. So disappointed, as I once lived off of Panera in another state. Don't waste your money or tastebuds... life is too short! read more

Avocado chipotle melt very good. However, the guy who took my order sighed, then didn't look at me, and forgot a whole sandwich that they charged me for. read more

Front of house staff were friendly and helpful. Clean dining area and restrooms. Food was the WORST I HAVE EVER HAD. Out of 4 orders, one was wrong, another had unripened avocados, a third was a bowl of soup and just that - no bread or crackers, our fourth had a "toasted" cheese and the cheese was not melted and the bread barely browned. We had a smoothie that was not completely blended and tasted like Danimals Yogurt. Lemonade tasted like powered mix... nasty. Was so disappointed with everything that I asked for a refund on the order they got wrong. Glad I did. I didn't realize they had charged me $10.50 for 1/2 sandwich, a small off-brand bag of chips and no drink. Complete waste of our money and time. read more

This location has been hit and miss for me. Drive thru - hit. Dine in - miss. When I drove thru everything was great - I love their smoothies, mac and cheese and paninis. But when I dined in with a friend they ran out of their autumn soup (on the first day of autumn, people.) and their mac and cheese was chunky, not creamy. I hope to give it more tries but this location now makes me nervous and more likely to go elsewhere. read more

So this place has a management issue. What this place has going for it: - food seems fresh What it has going against it: - employees all seem to attitude problems - pricing higher than similar establishments - small portions So I use to like the Panera Bread back east..... food was a little spendy based on the portion size but it is what it is. Went in there during the tail end of COVID. A lady walked in with her older mother who didn't have a mask on. She told them she had a medical condition and that she couldn't wear a mask. The employee bargain to argue with the lady. Its like this 20 something kid was getting off telling people what to do. He started getting really nasty at her and started cursing at her. Manager comes out (another 20 something) with a even bigger attitude. Look everyone has/had a different opinion about wearing masks during the pandemic, but these employees escalated the situation for no reason. Their go to line was "It's company policy". When the lady left the manager gave her a sarcastic wav and said bye. These stores need to managed by actual adults.... I guess there is a reason why this place currently only has a 2.5 star rating. read more

Oh my gosh why does this have such a low rating it is fabulous they're pastries chocolate croissants cookies bagels oh the Cherry bagel has six different types of Cherry in it I didn't even know that was a thing. The seasonal butternut squash soup is amazing with pumpkin seeds on it and the salads and the smoothies oh my gosh where to begin and then the sandwiches. The Fuji apple salad is the best thing I've ever eaten with the butternut squash soup paired. I love how many vegetarian options and even some vegan options they have also for those who don't eat meat or dairy. The girls that work there I say that because I've never encountered a man are always so nice. I also love all of their drink options and if you join the club you get drinks free they have watermelon mint lemonade things like that besides the boring soda. read more

Average food nothing out of this world. It was decent. The staff was friendly! I'd go back if someone I was having a lunch or dinner date wanted to go. But I would not return on my own choosing read more

I just don't know how it can be so wrong. Store closes at 8 but the drive-threw is closed by 6:25 when we got there. Then after going inside to order we got zero chips, but 4 baguettes and were missing part of our order. Yeah, I guess I should have checked before leaving, but I feel like they should do better. This is the second time this has happened. I understand people are short handed, but if you're going to limit your service you should be better at the rest. Panera, DO BETTER!!! read more

$44 for just myself and my wife. We both got a 1/2 sandwich and soup and a drink. And that's $44. I will never be back. The bread is like eating croutons, it literally ripped the roof of mouth apart. Super slow.... I wonder why. Cause you are way over priced for the "quality" food that you are served. We will not be back. read more

The food isn't bad, but the portions relative to the price make it seem like we've been under Biden inflation for decades. Their Teriyaki bowl is nearly $20 and you get 8 broccolis and 8 small pieces of chicken. Pretty sure the cost to make the bowl was $1.50... If you're an Ant, then this might satisfy your hunger. read more

Wildly inconsistent and inconvenient. When you're looking for fast food you don't wanna have to wait 45 minutes to get your food you could sit down and have a great meal for the same price as what it cost to go to Panera. They continue to complain about the fact that they cannot hire enough people at this particular location however this has been going on for the better part of two years. If you cannot use the drive-through and they've got a vehicle parked so that you have to walk inside do yourself a favor and don't go inside go someplace else. It will be a very long wait and you could get just as good of a meal at any sit down restaurant that's owned locally. I like Panera and I live in Idaho but I'll just start going to the location in the Spokane Valley where they don't have these issues. read more
