I had chicken noodle soup and Asia chicken salad. It could not have been better. So tasty and fresh. Service at the front counter was helpful and friendly. Thank you! I will be looking forward to eating here again! read more

I stopped here for lunch. We were able to order quickly and the food came out in less than 10 minutes. Everything was great. I always get the pick 2, so I got chicken noodle soup and the Greek salad. read more

Panera Bread - Storefront - Sandwiches Near Me - Niceville, Florida

Something like a three from me. Honestly, I never really feel Panera is a good value proposition. I spent $30 bucks for the two of us and left hungry. I got half a small sandwich and a cup of soup. You know, they were out of a lot of stuff too. Thought it was odd you could get a side of mac and cheese but you couldn't order it as a meal. And that whole rapid ordering system was really confusing. ...the kids working there we're dumbfounded too when I got a text the food was ready but wasn't. Do this, do that, wait here, no we'll call you. What did you order? Awkwarrrd!!! I could have done a whole lot better at Publix. read more

I have given this place so many chances, only because Panera has pretty good. However, they have the slowest drive thru service everrrrrr... it's a little overpriced for what you get, which I don't mind if you get my order correct. Today, 05/29/2023, was the last straw, I made a DoorDash order so I paid a premium for my order, see photo of receipt. Part of my order was 6 bagels, tub of cream cheese, and a tub chive onion smear. The receipt has boxes to check off to insure the items are bagged, of course they didn't use their own system to insure order accuracy and I didn't receive my cream cheese or chive onion smear... now I have a six pack of bagels that are basically worthless. I'm done with the Niceville Panera location. Of course I'm sure this will fall on deaf ears, as I can see they never respond to any reviews. Update: so I followed the instructions on the bottom of the receipt and called the speak with the manager, Jessica. She politely apologized, and said she would pass along because order accuracy is important. She never offered to make it right or correct the order, and then said if there's ever anything she can help me with in the future let her know. I politely told her that there will not be a next time. Not sure what your corporate policy is. Too bad it isn't correcting the issue and actually offering a solution. read more

Panera Bread - Receipt - Sandwiches Near Me - Niceville, Florida

Today was my first time visiting this location. We just moved here. I live about 15 minutes away. Pretty dumbfounded that my order was missing bagels, I called and they said they would replace them. Drove back 15 minutes and they didn't even put the bagels aside for me when I called so I wasted trip to not have my order fixed. So now will be going back a third time the next day to hopefully have my order fulfilled. The communication here is lacking. Update- Went in and Rebecca is phenomenal. Given extra goodies, hand cut bagels, and getting one extra toasted . read more

Chicken noodle soup bowl was less than half full and full of water! Sandwich bread was very tough ! Not worth $25! No wonder they are closing locations! read more

Very disappointing... we got a dozen bagels and they were really flavorless unfortunately. This was our first time to try Panera since moving to Niceville and sadly it will be our last. We ordered cinnamon and blueberry. We were unable to tell which was which. That is ridiculous. I feel that we should get a refund. And no we don't have COVID & have not lost our taste. read more

This location needs real help. I seldom ever get what I order and today I got a piece of paper in my breakfast sandwich. Not worth the money or irritation. read more

Overpriced, slimy chicken and a bad sandwich. Sad to waste money. Won't be coming back

Needed to grab a quick bite to eat.. decided to get some broccoli cheddar soup... soup was full of broccoli that I can taste...service here was great.. read more

Clean place with pretty good looking pastries. All we got was a bread bowl. The bread was nicely baked and good. The cashier was pleasant. read more

Overall the food wasn't very good and the service could have been better. They also got our order wrong.

Relative to other fast food joints, I would give this a 4-star review. Despite having to wait a little longer in the car line sometimes, this location is good about giving you a heads up if you have a promo to apply to an order, and makes the items well. I recently placed a large order for takeout to serve ten people and was very pleased with the follow through of the order. I called ahead to make sure they were good to go on my order and it was clear they had already paced themselves to have everything ready and in stock. The manager took the extra step to put each person's order in their own bag with their name on it, included silverware and napkins in each bag, etc. so it would all be together for each person. It was so nice to be able to just grab a bag and hand it out to each person at our meeting, knowing everything was included. read more

My daughter talked me into getting something from the store in Niceville and I ordered a chicken salad with almonds sandwich and it was not good. Plus the crust was so rubbery that I couldn't even eat it because it felt like it was going to break my teeth. Ta boot for a $10 sandwich there wasn't but two small teaspoons NOT heaping spoon fulls of chicken. Then my medium ice tea was not even filled up it was a good inch from the top. I was really looking forward to eating there but won't be back and will go to McCallisters next time when I eat out. read more

Service: Food: Cleanliness: Atmosphere: Price: Great place to come and get some good healthy food. Portion sizes are good for health, not fat. Lol. Flavor is off the charts. I got the bbq chicken Mac and cheese and it was really tasty. The lady at the front desk asked if I was a rewards member. I said "no". She said I would get a free pastry if I signed up. Took 2 minutes for a free pastry?! I got the bear claw. VERY good! read more

This particular location always seems dirty to me. Staff is friendly enough. However, I think the quality of food at Panera has really gone downhill in the past several years. The amount of protein they give you now is almost laughable for their prices. Panera used to be one of my favorite restaurants; now I avoid it. read more

I ordered the Fuji chicken salad. It was the worst one I've ever had. Had a million little old tomatoes and hardly any apple slices.

The drive through literally always makes the food wrong. I'm the last like six times, something was always missing. Dressing. Baguette. Frizzled onions on the bbq salad. Something. Always. Missing. Whoever fills the dressing cups fills them like 1/3 of the way, so make sure to ask for extra. Always check your food because it's likely wrong, and if you drive all the way home before inspecting all the items, you're kind of screwed. Also, the wait is always long. Granted, they're probably understaffed just like everywhere else. However, this is no excuse to continuously make food incorrectly. The ingredients literally pop up on the screen in front of the people making the food. Just laziness. read more

My friend and I went to Panera to enjoy some delicious food. (As I thought) but as we went in there to order our food for take out they were very slow. There was no one in there and we had to wait an hour. once we got our food the soup, cold, they forgot my pizza. And my friends sandwich was just two pieces of bread. I am very disappointed. Will definitely not be coming back. read more

They have a lot of good fresh food! Always good served hot. I love there Broccoli cheddar soup and the mac & cheese.

We order delivery from here on a regular basis and the food is consistently phenomenal! Additionally the management really goes above and beyond to provide terrific customer service!!! read more

Can always rely on them to satisfy me! Only wish they served the Autumn Squash soup year round! read more

Panera Bread is such a classic for wanting something super healthy and a well balanced meal. I had chose the pick 2 combo, half of a Mediterranean Veggie Sandwich and a cup of the Ten Vegetable soup. It came with a side of bread, and all of this was perfect! I also got tea as my drink, and they have a wonderful selection of cold teas. I love that they are sweetened with healthier versions of sweetener or you can get lightly or unsweetened as well. Definitely a fan of panera bread and everything they have to offer on their menu! read more

Came through the drive through today and was handed my order which was correct. My concerns are that the woman that handed me my order had a surgical mask on but it was hanging on her bottom lip so basically her mouth and nose were completely exposed. She was not wearing gloves either which was additionally concerning. People who wear masks incorrectly are even more alarming then not wearing any mask at all because they will frequently touch their masks with their bare hands to adjust them especially if they find them annoying and don't want to wear them in the first place. : ( read more

Literally the worst Panera. Every other Panera is good, but this one sucks. They mess up my orders all the time.

This Panera just opened February 2016 I believe so the staff is clearly new and they're working out some of the kinks. Otherwise it's your standard Panera...which I generally like because they have a large variety of options with varying levels of healthiness depending on your eating habits. I've never had a Panera meal I disliked. I was most excited about this Panera opening by my house so that I could utilize the "bakery" aspect. I'd been getting most of my fresh bread from Publix behind Panera so was hoping for some variety. They have variety but the prices are a lot higher so I think I'll still get most of my breads from Publix sadly. read more

This Panera is always dirty and smells like burnt cheese. I went in the other day and two of the things I tried to order were out. The roof was also leaking and there were dirty buckets everywhere. The bathrooms are also disgusting. Food sometimes is good and sometimes off. read more

Holy cow Panera is so expensive for having to warm your own food and subpar service. Sunday morning 0800 staff was not at all friendly except for the lady who made my expresso shot she wished me a good day with a genuine smile. They didn't have creamer out so I search for it and finally went up to the front and asked. The lady brought it out said "here you go honey" but she slammed those down yes I heard lol I'm sorry you guys have to work on a Sunday but I'm a easy nice customer y'all don't have to be so mean. Especially the younger chick with monotone and monoface, they should hire people with customer service experience. People at gas stations are friendlier than staff here so probably my last time coming. I'll be up for the bagel Tuesday special though it's 13 for 6.99 which is a good deal! read more

Great service and food options. Food is prepared to your expectations. Very clean inside. This Panera is smaller than others I have visited so the bakery item selection is smaller. I've visited several Panera's and this is my favorite. read more

They forgot some of my food and basically told me "too bad" and that I would have to find something else to feed my daughter. Would not give me a refund unless I went back to the store. So I basically spent money on nothing. Never ordering from Panera bread again. read more

I used to go to this Panera at least once a week, but I don't bother anymore. Got tired of the dirty tables and trashcans overflowing everywhere all the time. If they could get an employee to go through the dining room every five minutes and clean up, it would be a lot more enjoyable experience. I think the 82nd airborne division chow hall would be a lot more sanitary read more

Every single time I order something is messed up. I asked for a crispy bagel, it was completely burnt. I bought cream cheese and asked for a toasted bagel; the bagel isn't toasted and they forgot my cream cheese. The service really sucks sometimes and maybe a worker was having a bad day or something but come on, all I ordered was a bagel with cream cheese :( read more

I ordered takeout. The chicken Ceaser had old chicken in it. I had to spit it out. We all know the gamey taste of old chicken-- it is undeniable. Never again! read more

Their service is terrible. Not one of the workers will greet you even the manager. I have had orders they never filled and after waiting for 15 minutes I walked out without my order. The manager doesn't seem concerned about fixing the issues when I brought it up to him. read more

They really put barely anything on my wife's Tomato Mozzarella Flatbread. For $7, I expect some substance, especially when no meat was even on it. read more

Sad. They replaced the Italian combo with a very substandard Italian sub. The taste and quality was very poor. I will have to find a new sandwich since this was my most favorite reason for going to Panera! Please bring back the Italian combo!!! read more
