To go Salad
Monica B.

Not sure what is happening with the service at this café and I wish it was as good as the one in Rocky Hill even the one in Farmington has been improving a lot. The staff that works the drive-through is so rude the food it takes forever. Panera has a very good chai tea latte however and it's one of the best in town. Please retrain the staff for customer interactions.

Asiago Everything Bagel?!!!
Maria F.

I don't understand why we are being given a thing that Panera is calling a bagel. What is this ?! I'm highly irritated to order bagels and get this rather highly domed thing they're passing off as ok. It's not ok!! It's not a bagel people!! Can't put it in a toaster can't make a decent sandwich with it!! I think I'm done with Panera or at least this particular one.

I don't normally review national chains, but my last three experiences with this nearby Panera have been below my expectations. My son is a fan of their grilled cheese and tomato soup and it's one of his most common takeout requests. He always gets chips as his side. Our last 3 experiences, oldest to most recent, are as follows 1. They put some sort of horseradish condiment (which we didn't order) on his grilled cheese. We didn't discover this until we got home. It was inedible to me, let alone to an elementary aged kid. I called and asked them to make another one and have it ready because we were in a hurry. They asked me on the phone to provide information to verify that I had been there, further delaying things. When we arrived, the sandwich was not made. After they made it, the person working on it accidentally dropped it and had to make a new one. This was all a significant inconvenience to us given what else we had going on that day. No one ever apologized or offered us anything for our inconvenience. 2. My son who normally gets a whole grilled cheese asked for a half. I made sure to ask that it would be half of a normal whole. It was not. It was on a different style of bread that was not the equivalent of half a whole. We didn't discover this until we got home. 3. They ran out of chips, which is the only side my son is interested in. The other options are bread or an apple, and we have both of those at home. It seems like they could plan better so that they don't run out of chips. But if they do, they should give you more options since they are not giving you what you want. They could deduct the cost of the chips. They could offer more options like a dessert. I would even prefer a voucher for chips to bread or an apple. I will be limiting my visits to this Panera Bread and I do not recommend it.

Full tuna sandwich, but on white miche bread . Delicious

Many choices for lunch and not so many healthy ones ,but Panera brings to their table fresh and healthier options ,even having drive thru service . The place is pretty nice inside and offers free Wi-Fi to all guests ,so bring as many devices you need to. They have pizza Flatbread, salads , bagels and more. You have one menu option to Pick 2 . That is half a sandwich and soup or salad. You can mix & match any of their great choices . The mac and cheese is very creamy and decedent I have tried that at another location . Today I went with a full bowl of Broccoli n Cheese soup and a full sized tuna sandwich. I chose white bread inside of the roll it usually has . Overflowing with tuna,tomato, lettuce and red onion, yumm! It comes with kettle chips or apple, I chose the chips The soup was pretty big with lots of Broccoli and slim pieces of carrots throughout. Nice and hot and very filling .

I had the WORST experience at this Panera Bread and it only got worse when I got home. I went through the drive through and ordered a broccoli cheddar soup with a green smoothie. When I got to the window, the young lady was extremely RUDE. She swiftly asked me for the money as I was in the process of opening my wallet and then had the audacity to put her finger up to tell me to hold down when I asked her to punch in my number so I could earn rewards. I gave her the number & she asked me to repeat it three times even though I'm certain she heard me. I decided to take the high road and just pull off after getting my food. When I got home, I sat down and began eating. As I reached the end of my soup, I took a spoon and began choking. I quickly pulled out what I thought was broccoli and it was a PIECE OF PLASTIC. I was mortified. The negligence of the staff to the point where I almost swallowed plastic is despicable. I will absolutely be contacting the store and corporate.

The service was amazing. The pizzas were definitely top three around in Connecticut. The desserts were amazing and customer service was very helpful when me and my daughter came in there to get some food we didn't know what we wanted for the first time. The lady I think her son owns it she was very helpful.and she was also a big fan

I recently started coming to Panera on a daily basis after I signed up for their Coffee subscription. It's a two minute detour from my house, on my way to work, which is very convenient for me. With the subscription I am able to get unlimited coffee any size and any flavor. The subscription does have some limitations and I am unable to add a shot of French vanilla to my coffee with the subscription. Now after I get my coffee I have to manually add a shot of French vanilla in my car. I haven't used the order in store option due to Covid, I have only used the mobile order feature. The mobile order is a very simple process and easy to navigate. The one thing that I have been struggling with his the inconsistency of my order when I do curbside pick up. I always order a large, but I am given a medium coffee due to the store not having large coffee cups. Sometimes I get a notification that my coffee is ready to be picked up, but when I walk into the store to pick up my order I don't see my coffee. I didn't have to talk to an employee to get my order. The last time I was there they had ran out of most of their coffees, so I had to settle for the only coffee they had available. The one thing I did notice was that they did not have napkins. An employee told me that napkins are only given when you order a meal and not a drink. I will continue to come back as I do like their coffee overall.

Unlike most other Paneras I have been to, this location lacked the warm and fuzzy atmosphere. The food was fine and the service was quick, but again, it had to be quick because I was the only one in the restaurant. The Wi-Fi was f*%ked up. Panera is general is becoming too expensive for the amount of food you get. Call me Miss Piggy if you want, but I have been leaving there still hungry (see my photo).

Strawberry poppy seed salad with the apple cut up and on salad instead of whole on the side.

I just left The Salad Bar after enjoying a refreshing salad for lunch. We were deciding between…read moreChopped and The Salad Bar, but chose The Salad Bar because our experiences at Chopped haven't been the best. The few times we've been there, we felt like we were inconveniencing the staff whenever we asked questions. There was little to no eye contact, and the customer service just wasn't welcoming. The experience at The Salad Bar was the complete opposite. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and were immediately asked if we had any questions. That simple gesture made a great first impression. Eye contact is important to me. It feels like, as a society, we've lost some of those basic courtesies that make people feel seen and valued. The staff at The Salad Bar absolutely delivered in that regard. I also appreciate businesses that pay attention to the little things. Cleanliness should always be expected, but unfortunately, that's not always the case. The restaurant was spotless, and I was pleasantly surprised to find USB charging outlets at the tables--a thoughtful touch that definitely didn't go unnoticed. Great food, friendly service, and attention to detail make for a wonderful dining experience. We'll definitely be back!

My mom is in an assisted living in the area and I have been looking for some healthy eating options…read moresince I'm usually leaving at dinner time. I found The Salad Bar. I am obsessed with their build be up butternut salad!! I get it with chicken for added protein. It has roasted Brussels sprouts, butternut squash, craisins, pepitos, and quinoa. I've gotten it twice now!! The restaurant is clean, staff is friendly and service is quick!

I popped in because the parking lot was mostly empty. It wasn't particularly busy in the cafe either. There were two small groups ahead of me in line. I order my food and black iced coffee to go. I received my food. It even had to be heated. And I had to wait 10 minutes for them to give me my black iced coffee. Even though there are only two or three people waiting in the drink area. And that was after I said something. So who knows how long it would have taken. This isn't because of lack of effort. The baristas were doing things. They're making lots of drinks. But it's not clear for whom. They finish the drinks and they don't call people's names. Maybe they're for to go orders? I understand that restaurants need to make choices about how they run things. All I can say is, that it's not a good experience to get all of your food and you have to wait for a black iced coffee (a drink that takes very minimal effort) for 10 minutes. Even though you're one of only a few people in the drink area. I'm not going to change my review score. But these experiences definitely affect how often I visit.

Excellent food and service! We were quickly greeted and whisked away to a booth. Our waitress,…read moreSheri W. was extremely attentive. My husband and I told her it was our first visit to JG and she was delighted to help us with any questions or concerns. The menu is huge and it offers something for everybody! I decided to start with the apple salad, which was huge! It was crispy, crunchy, and had just the right mix of ingredients. My husband ordered a small (12in) cheese pizza, and I decided to go with a small (12in) vodka pizza. I love vodka sauce but had never tried it on a pie before, man was it delicious!- Chef's kiss! My husband really enjoyed his traditional cheese pizza as well! It was great to find a new haven style pizza joint further into the state. They also serve Detroit style pizza which I'd be interested in trying next time. The only downside was not having room to try the italian ricotta donuts that look and sound amazing (which JG doesn't start serving till 5pm). I guess that means we'll just have to go back! 10 out of 10 for JG, we shall return!
