the time ks 10:23am. i requested a sandwich and a small side tomato soup. they said it "soups are not ready right now" how is that possible if the establishment opens at 7am????? complete incompetence. very disappointing. read more

Do I smell something burning?! .... Because this place is fire. I'm a huge Panera fan, and this location did not disappoint! I love the convenience of the drive through. You don't even have to walk-in for some bomb grub. This feature was extremely helpful on a rainy December day, right before Christmas- when the crowds were everywhere. Panera was a nice quick option for comfort food on the cold evening after shopping. Our service was fast and the orders were correct. We enjoyed our meals. We ordered a lot of food to be honest; broccoli Mac and cheese, Mediterranean veggie sandwich, kitchen sink cookies, soup in bread bowls, a smoothie, and a couple flatbread pizzas. We ordered a grip of food and it was all hot and delicious. This was my first time coming here, however my cousin has been to this location on several occasions and said she's never be unhappy. I'd definitely recommend this location, and I'm sure I will return in the future. read more

Panera Bread - To go - Sandwiches Near Me - Menifee, California

Panera Bread's predecessor St Louis Bread was one of our favorite places to eat when we lived in the Midwest. We also loved Paradise Bakery (AZ) and Au Bon Pain (MA and IL)) - which were all acquired by German JAB holdings But it has been the demise of these restaurants and the combining of their Menus, which makes Panera a place we look forward to stopping in for a bite. In the mornings, I use to grab some breakfast and coffee on the run before work. Now in retirement, we come here to relax and catch-up after shopping. Their Steak Sandwich has a smokey, complex layer of flavors which I like, while their Combo 1/2 and 1/2 Soup and Sandwich is another one of our favorites. A new item is their coffee club. Expect to pay $15 for lunch. read more

Poor service, completely wrong order food and drink. Wrong attitude and poor customer service!

Located right off 215 on Haun Rd. in a very busy shopping center, this Panera is one of a very few in the mile radius of Riverside, Orange, and San Diego counties. In today's busy life, everyone is always on search of good options. Whether en route to the next ball practice to grab and go or offnight of cooking, Panera with its menu choices works for many. I have been to this location a few times, and for the most part, customer service is friendly, and thankfully, my order has always been right, with occasional missing utensils here and there. Now, promptness, specifically with drive thru, hmm not so much. My last drive thru Friday 3/24 was ridiculously long. I ordered pick two - their new toasted baguette sandwich goddess caprese and asian chicken salad. 35 minutes. Ouch. I beelined home, and my sandwich was delicious and the salad was fine. If you do not have all the time in the world, do not go through the drive-thru. I get made to order... but 35 minutes is too long. Does it take this long for bagels and coffee, too? I'll try to order ahead next time... time is fleeting. read more

My first time I started to walk up to the door I was afraid to touch it it was filthy so I walked in look around the floor ,counter tops, windows, then got closer and the case with the pastry oh no this restaurant needs a good cleaning I walked out. Never again read more

Panera, please retrain this location. Orders were not accurate, even with the signatures of inspections on the receipts to show they were checked, had items missing or not made to customer added preferences. Also, service is way too slow, even at the drive thru, compared to other Panera locations. This is not the worst location, but it is in need of improvements. On the side note, the staff are friendly, so the service is welcoming. The place is clean. The food is made fresh. The business hours are commendable. So, kudos on that. read more

I loved the food but their drive thru took 30 minutes to get a drink and a cookie . The cars in front were 3 cars only for such a long wait. If you have time for the drive thru otherwise go inside. read more

wendy was awesome & super nice. and honestly i believe she's the only reason this place is running, thanks wendy !!!

Ridiculous lines that never move. What happened to getting the lines moving? This place is slower than molasses.

I am offically never going back to any Panera. Let me start by saying I work hard for my money and I do not like to be ripped off. Today was the last time I will ever let that happen again. I spent over $13 on a salad was so small I was done eating it in about 8 bites. If you laid out on a table what was in the salad, lettuce, 10 peices at most of cilantro, about 5 super thinly sliced chicken, slivered almonds and a ton of chinese crackers it would probably cost them about $2 for the salad in total for them to make. Barely dressed. The bread was cold, no butter on plates anymore. I am saving my hard earned money from now on and never going back. Every time I go the portions get smaller and smaller. It is just not worth it anymore. Sorry Panera. You once had amazing big awesome salads. Too bad you are just ripping customers off now. I wont be back. read more

I got the Mac and cheese with Bacon, a little more expensive then the regular but I have no bacon and the Mac and cheese isn't even full! This was almost 10 dollars! read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Menifee, California

Disclaim: I would've gave them a 4 and a half if I could but this establishment deserves this 5 to offset some of the lower ratings that aren't warranted. They absolutely delivers on what they promise, which I believe speaks volumes for any place of business. The chicken is always super hot and fresh. The fries are always hot and fresh. The sweet tea is good, definitely some of the best in the surrounding area. The lemonade is pretty good and also among some of the better ones in the area. The bread is great as well. The sauce does its job for sure. Be sure to get an extra sauce or 2! Plain and simple they deliver on what's advertised and yes it is delicious as well. read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Menifee, California

Online and front door says they close at 9pm on Sundays. I showed up at 8:40 for a salad. There were workers in-doors but the place was closed. Waste of my time driving here. read more

Tonight was the first time I ate inside Panera. It was the worst experience. The floor and tables were so dirty I didn't even want to eat in there. I asked the worker for a rag to wipe the table.l because it was sticky and instead of offering to clean the table, she directed me to the counter with the super wet wipes , to clean my own table? My hot sandwich was cold and so I informed the worker of this and she said she can't take it back and said "the microwave is over there!!! I asked for the manager and asked him to please make me a new sandwich (double pressed) and before I could get a new sandwich I had listen to his lecture about the cheese not melting. Worst experience ever! read more

I came in & ordered potatoes soup to go. I never had this soup before from them, and after trying it, I never will again. It had tiny pieces of potatoes in it, and very little. The soup I ordered was for 2-3 people, and I couldn't believe the cost of it either. The total came to around $26.00, just for the soup. That is outrageous, considering you're only getting about 3 small servings. I'll stick to Barons when I want soup! read more

Will not be coming here again this is the second time this has happened to me at this location. I ordered a chipotle sandwich with turkey instead of chicken and I got a chicken with bacon and mayo and it was disgusting. Not what I ordered and of course I did the drive-through so when I got home, I was so disappointed. Please pay attention to what the customer is ordering. read more

I'm back... and this time to give props to Panera Bread. We ordered 15 different things on the app at $144.00 and everything was perfect. Not one thing was wrong. That's how it's supposed to be. Thanks for making a family dinner amazing read more

They don't care if the food makes you sick. So if it does make sure to get to the hospital and have them test the food and you or Panera will do nothing to help. read more

Do not recommend, The wait for 2 simple bagels not toasted is insane! Only 3 cars in front and was in line for 45mins! What a disappointment! read more

They wanted more than $20 for a half salad with no protein and a cup of soup, so I told them I was ordering "you pick two." If you are not careful, they are trying to steal from you. So she changed the order. She is not at all friendly. Egregious! read more

"President George W Bush famously said: "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, you won't fool me again." Well, hell, shame on me because Panera stuck it to me again. I'm sitting here, an hour and a half before closing and have been informed they're out of bread. That's odd, there's bread above your prep station. And the people before us and after us got bread. Maybe they've been in contact with my doctor and know I need to cut back on carbs. Let's recap our order: a bowl of 10 Vegetable Soup. Piping hot, but 1/2 filled bowl. I guess this is better than the last time when the bowl was 1/3 full. Kid's Mac & Cheese that's lukewarm at best. At least the toddler won't burn their mouth? ‍ A Baja Warm Bowl that is cold. Like pulled out of the refrigerator cold. I understand supply chain and work force issues, but this is just pathetic. How is it that this location so frequently misses the mark? read more

Panera Bread - 1/2 filled bowl. I'm assuming they over filled and then poured out the soup (the ring from previous level and pour mark). - Sandwiches Near Me - Menifee, California

Definitely dissatisfied with tonight's order. I got less than a half of a serving of dressing for my salad and they ran out of bread rolls!?! They also only gave us three napkins for four meals! read more

Wendy at the Menifee location always makes our visits SO pleasant... We need more people like Wendy in this world!!!

Just something simple to other customers, I came at 9:35 to get a simple sandwich when they did not serve me. Nothing wrong about the food just change your closing hour time so you don't make others go through this same hassle. "Online says 10:00pm" An update thank you for posting store hours! read more

Never really came here in the past, but recently I've ordered online twice and have been very happy with everything. This particular location is in the Countryside Marketplace in Menifee, next to In 'n Out. I came across a discount code on IG and decided to try it. Placed my order online the first time a few days ago and was impressed with how fast they had it ready. They send a confirmation email which contains a link you click on to let them know you are there. The email also tells you how long it will be before it's ready for pick up. My first time picking up they were super fast. It was ready in 10 minutes! Second time they were a bit slower to come out with my order but still reasonable. Both times I chose the option of just pulling up in front of the entrance vs. going inside. The employee was nice and friendly. I will be coming back again, as their food is great and the prices aren't too bad. Panera is my new go-to for a quick but healthier option when I'm on the move! read more

The coffe tasted like old coffee and old very bad coffee I have my Sipp Club subscription and I ask the one of the workers for coffee because it was cold so she comes back and gives me a cup of coffee hot but without flavor, no taste at all it seems like you guys run out of coffee to brew and you guys were giving me left over water just hot . Sorry but I love Panera Coffe with flavor not just hot water with a little bit of color. read more

The food was good and they mostly got my order right but I was astonished by the young man who served me. He and a young girl had huge nose rings and face piercing. I'm sorry but I don't want to see anything hanging from anyone's nose before I eat, yuck! There is a big social/ political flag hanging in there restaurant too. I just want to come in have a sandwich and leave. I don't want to know anyone's personal life or views. I'm sure they don't care about mine. Please show some professionalism serve your customers without dangling things from the nose or face and move on. Thank you. read more

working in the marketplace center gives me a few options when i go out to eat. being timed during my lunch only gives me so much time to get lunch. every time i go to this location im always waiting 20+ minutes for my food. this time will be the last due to the person giving out my food through the drive thru window brought out a bag for after maybe 5 minutes, but then proceeded to wait another 15 to get a whole separate bag (which was not mine) to give me the bag they set in the first place. did not provide any utensils or napkins or asked if we wanted any on top of this . i am not a person who complains at any means but due to only 4 items i had bought coming out to over $45 and just left to sit and wait is baffling to me. read more

This place is going downhill fast. My orders have been continuously wrong or items missing. Definitely the last time I'll be here. Ordered salad with extra dressing and they literally didn't put ANY . Terrible read more

Panera Bread - Salad missing ingredients - Sandwiches Near Me - Menifee, California

Panera is our favorite place to eat. We eat here 3-4 times a week because the food is good and the staff is wonderful..i don't know what is going on lately, but the last 2 times the food had not been edible. The first time they forgot the chicken in my sandwich and last night i wasn't feeling well and was craving the chicken and wild rice soup. The soup was cold and the consistency of water. It was so gross i had to throw it away. Such a waste of money. Makes me so sad because it used to be so good. read more

I've been coming here for years. There have been good experiences and occasionally not so good, but today I felt that I had to shout out the cashier Melody for exceptional service. Such a sweet lady and she took excellent care of me today. If she sticks around I might come back more often! Please thank her for doing a great job and having a wonderful attitude. It's rare that I leave a restaurant with a smile on my face nowadays. read more
