I've always received fast friendly service at this location. The seating area is generally very clean, but the bathroom cleanliness is sporadic. The coffee is usually hot and all varieties are available. When they are out of a certain type of coffee at the self service station, I ask, and they are usually quick to fill it. The cashier, even wished me a happy birthday. I'm disappointed that they don't have the free Wi-Fi that used to have. read more

Panera Bread - Orange cranberry loaf - Sandwiches Near Me - Racine, Wisconsin

My husband and I went to Panera Bread to get a SIPS club drink while on the road. The bathroom was dimly lit and dirty. We got a SIPS club drink and also got an almond pastry. The pastry was really dry. We had trouble finding a table that wasn't sticky. I left disappointed by this Panera Bread. read more

I travel a lot for work. I go to other Paneras weekly. I stopped here at 6:41. I tried ordering three different sandwiches. For all they were out of bread. Out of bread at 6:41 in the evening. It's the Panera BREAD company. Unacceptable! I walked out. I used to live in Racine. This location's old location always ran out of bread. Why would I think anything would have changed? read more

I went to order my usual, which is a half Caesar salad and a half chicken fontega sandwich. However, I was unable to order the Cesar because they don't have any Caesar dressing in the entire restaurant. So I ended up ordering a whole sandwich because I wasn't sure if I would like another salad. My sandwich came and it's missing the fresh basil that's supposed to be on it. I had it delivered because I'm working from home and don't have time to go get it. The DoorDash driver handed me my food and I brought it into the house and it reeked like cigarettes so that was fun (obviously not paneras fault). Overall this is my least favorite Panera. The location farther away never has these issues. This location cannot get it together unfortunately. I never get what I order, there's always something missing. And they don't notify you of missing ingredients, they just send it out wrong. I'm still going to order from her because there's very few healthy options near my house. read more

You bless u see them make ur food!. read more

Took a break because these idiots can't get orders right and ordered for pick up today. SSDD. Missed an entire sandwich, no chips, or apples, or bread included with order. I went in to pick up the sandwich they completely missed and the staff is giggling and laughing. It's not busy and according to their check list they double checked my order, bullshit. The level of incompetence at this location is ridiculous. I've lost count of how much they screw up. I am owed probably 5 pick 2 vouchers that they have never sent. We stopped going before for the same issue and drive to another location for food, 20min away. It being 1 degree, thought the slow environment would improve quality. NOPE! Nearly a $100 order and they ripped us off. Panera is a scam. Fresh and fast, nope. Quality, nope. read more

Stopped on the lunch hour, ordered a u take 2...Turkey Bacon Bravo was not toasted as requested at the drive thru, was not offered a beverage...can not handle cold sandwiches. My autumn squash soup was lukewarm...wake up guys! If I would have had extra time, I would have brought it all back! read more

This location is incredibly slow. I feel bad for the employees. When you compare the cost of their items vs. the quality of the food, wait times and presentation, it's outrageous and embarrassing. Pay a better wage to improve franchise conditions and meet customer expectations. read more

I have tried and tried with this restaurant but they just don't make the grade. Salads missing key ingredients, no pickles with sandwiches, small portions which they think you won't notice but you can tell as they use smaller bowls. All my favs ate gone: teriyaki rice bowl, pizza and others. Once I talked with the manager telling her how can someone miss putting strawberries on a strawberry chicken salad? The ingredient is in the title of the dish. She offered me a coupon. I told her I wasn't interested in a coupon and that I was telling her so she could actually do something about it. She had no clue. I didn't go there for over a year. Thought I'd go back as my strawberry chicken salad was back on the menu. Now the size is much smaller....there may have been two sliced strawberries in the entire salad. Based on the reviews I've read here and my personal experience of going here 3/4 times for a year, this location will not last. read more

I purchased the smaller size Harvest Medley Chicken Salad. the slices of chicken were tender and tasty. The lettuce was crisp. the dressing simply was not tasty, maybe because I am not a big fan of balsamic. the toasted pecan pieces were like mush, like they had been sitting in water. i did not find any dried cranberries, and I did not find any beet strips, and if I use my imagination, I think I found one tiny pumpkin seed. all in all, one of the worst salads I have purchased in many years. I have eaten at Panera before with satisfaction, but this salad was a real let-down. read more

Extremely disrespectful owner and management. I am a Dasher and on asking about an order got harassed verbally and was threaten to be removed from the App. But they can not do that, It was an idol threat read more

Food is always fresh and really good my wife loves the soup bread bowls and the salads are really good since I'm on keto

There was an older lady at the order station and when I asked how I pick up an order that I ordered online to eat in the restaurant she gave me quite an attitude and didn't want to help me. She was like they will call your name when it is done and the order said it was ready on my app but I didn't see it in the window. Also for one salad it is a little less than $13. Cut me a break. The food is good but not that good. The restaurant was also very busy with high school kids. Ordering online and just picking up is the best option. I ordered the southwest chicken salad with extra cilantro, it was mostly lettuce. read more

First three times going here was a 4 star but this last time I swear I got a half salad worth of veggies. I got the extra chicken & did feel I got all the extras there but for a Greek I selected Extra Tomatoes, Pepperochini, & Red Onions. Swear I get more on a regular. Plus I ordered no dressing so they had the room in the bowl. read more

This location is horrible. The workers are slow and kind of disgusting. I felt sick watching the worker slice my bagels with the dirty gloves he kept touching his face and hair with. Almost walked out but already paid. read more

Panera has come such a long way from being that place you occasionally get a bagel and has become a go-to option for work lunches. We were celebrating a birthday on the team and this is the kind of place where everyone can find something that they like. The ordering process was smooth and I opted for texts to know when it was ready. The order was available for pickup right on time--which is good, the Panera by my always makes the food early so it's often cold by the time I get there because... it was early, and staff was friendly while collecting my food. Only issues: - Lack of napkins for four people to have lunch. - No labeling. Three of us got soup, one with a bread bowl. But the soup that goes with the bread bowl was not in the bag with the bread bowl. Some simple labeling "chili" or "FO" for French Onion would have made things go much smoother. read more

Well, ordered 2 Cream of chicken rice soups in Bread bowls to go. They forgot the bread bowls. No biggy, but I did call because my husband felt bad, thought it was his fault. I called to tell the manager, she was very apologetic And sent us out 2 complimentary U pick 2's. Very nice of her. Now I know I shouldn't complain, but I ordered the chicken. Green goddess caprese sandwich, minus the green goddess. Weeell it was minus the chicken. ‍‍ My suggestion is to eat there. Then they have to be accountable for their mistakes. Kenosha isn't that far. Rose read more

Decent food, fair prices, nice environment. The staff is normally friendly and well spoken.

Me and my friends ordered lots of food. VERY AWFUL. COLD, DRY AND STARCHY. I am very disappointed in this quality of food. WILL NOT BE RETURNING. *sighs with disgust*! The doctor pepper is just brown sprite. I can not express my emotion. I'm very upset. my teammate is crying because how sad it is. read more

This is the second time I have received a rotten apple in my pick up order at Panera racine, Wisconsin.

Manager's attention should be made aware of this practice. read more

Nice that delivery was free and timely. Bakery items of orange and blueberry scones, though overpriced were very tasty. The pepperoni and mozzarella sandwich was a huge disappointment! It was like eating a loaf of bread with very, very small amounts of sauce, meat and cheese! I would never order it again, nor recommend it. Panera usually serves much better items. read more

Devon should no longer be employed at Panera. My husband got a doordash order for Wendy's and Panera bread that was going to the same customer. We picked up the Wendy's order first and we arrived at Panera bread assuming that would be ready as well. My husband spoke with a female manager. He explained that maybe they shouldn't take doubled orders if they can't handle it because now the Wendy's food would be cold. Also because they took the doubled order he couldn't just drop the Panera bread order. She said they would get it ready right away. So he stepped away from the counter and waited. When the food was ready that's when manager Devon jumped into it. He started yelling at him telling him he shouldn't take their orders anymore and that he needed to leave. Now I must say when he was talking to the female everything was calm he just explained he didn't want to take cold food because they couldn't get their food ready on time. Devon never should have said anything to him. He was already dealing with the female manager in the store. I was watching this all happen and I have to say I've never seen anyone react the way that Devon did. He shouldn't be a manager there or any kind of employee at Panera. I'm guessing from the other reviews of this place nothing will be done. However with employees like Devon you will lose a lot of customers. I've filed a complaint with doordash as well to help other dashers avoid this store. No one should go here until management is better. read more

A few seasonal menu changes/ additions perfect for autumn have renewed my enthusiasm for Panera Bread! Absolutely try the ricotta sacchettini w chicken broth bowl! Ricotta stuffed pasta, chicken pieces, and a super flavorful broth makes this a healthy, complete meal in one. The broth is not overly salty. For an additional $2.50, you can get a 1/2 order sandwich, which is probably the best deal at Panera. My fave choices for the Pick Two Combo (cup of soup + 1/2 sandwich): The autumn squash soup is pretty good, too. It seems like a simple purée of the vegetable topped w toasted pine nuts. If you're into pumpkin/ squash/ zucchini soups and gazpacho, you'll like it. The chipotle chicken avocado melt is decent. The thin slice of chicken breast itself tastes rather bland and not very "chipotle", so the avocado and melted cheese really help this panini. For a chain restaurant of this type, Panera is a solid choice for a casual lunch or dinner. I just wrote a fairly detailed review for a Panera Bread on the basis of these three menu items. That's saying something. read more

Ordered a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup. When the server brought it to my table, I couldn't believe how small the portion was. I immediately asked my server about the amount of soup I received, and told her it was kind of skimpy for $6. She said it contained 3 ladles of soup and that's what they are told to serve. Total of about $6.20 for soup and chips. I will never order the skimpy bowl of soup again. read more

This Panera is weird. It seems that literally every time I'm in there, there is some sort of crisis and managers are yelling at their employees over something. I have gone plenty of times both around dinner/lunch rushes but also slow periods and it seems there's always something. I have also more than once gotten food that isn't warm. I almost always get the mac and cheese and a few times I get it and the cheese isn't creamy anymore, I don't really know how to describe the consistency other than just mac and cheese that has sat out for a while. What made me write this though was my most recent (and probably last) experience going there. I ordered on one of the computer screens and sat for a while waiting for my food. I could see the service counter and saw my food sitting out there for a few minutes. Normally they bring it to you and I wasn't positive it was mine but after a few minutes got up to go see. It was my order, and I told them so. They kind of snapped at me that "it would be brought out to me" but let me take it. I mean, it was sitting up there for a while and no one brought it, sooo... This time, my mac and cheese was straight up cold. Down at the bottom it was still warm, but the rest was cold. I mixed it all up hoping the heat would distribute but nothing could save the sad and cold mac and cheese. I brought it back up to the counter and asked if they could heat it up and they just took it and eventually brought me a new one out. This one was actually warm, so that was good. However I really don't understand why so many times I've gotten food from them that isn't warm. And listening to the way the staff treat one another there just solidifies my decision to not go back. read more

Ok - so I do like Panera's food. However! I have been trying to order on-line for the past 25 minutes and it's impossible! The Salad I wanted includes blueberries and they're out of them. Ok, no problem. However, the site offers substitutions but when you go there it just keeps taking me around and around and I'm not able to order! I know how to do these things but this is crazy! Then, I started trying to call them about 15 minutes ago to no avail. In their recording they say that if we're trying to call during mealtimes we should call back. What??? I tried calling a number of times during the time they suggested and STILL no one answered! Tonight is the last night for their free delivery but it looks like I'm not going to get that. So Panera people - either have someone else design your site or hire someone to answer your phone!! This is ridiculous!! read more

I ordered delivery from here a couple days ago and I was disappointed in the quality of the food I received. I ordered the Chicken Tortellini Alfredo which tasted like it had been in the fridge for a couple days and then thrown in the microwave to heat it up and the chicken had a weird after taste. I also ordered their Broccoli Cheddar soup and that was delicious. I called and asked to speak with a manager. The gentleman who answered put me on hold while he went to get a manager. When he came back he said the manager was unable to come to the phone at the moment and would call me back. He took my name and number. No call that night. No call the next day. I called them again today and spoke with a manager named Emily. I told her I was disappointed with Panera on two accounts now - 1 the quality of food and 2 - the manager not calling me back and explained the situation to her. She was amazing and was able to take care of the situation right away. She is the reason I might give this particular location another chance. read more

I had an order placed and once I picked it up, I saw that they gave us the wrong soup. I tried calling the store, and no one answered.

I ordered and pick two with a Cesar salad and a chicken avocado sandwich when I got home I was VERY disappointed with what I saw. Instead of giving me my sandwich they gave me 3 orders of Cesar salad. The lack of effort in this restaurant is very disappointing. Working in customer service this could've easily been avoided by simply double checking or asking if I would like something else If they didn't have my order. Will NOT be coming back anytime soon. read more

Panera has chosen to use Door Dash vs their in-house delivery. The order was marked delivered yet we had no food. Upon calling, they said our house address was wrong (checked both apps and it is not). Manager said he would call DD and fix it. DD called me and said Panera would fix it. An hour later we canceled the order (probably should have never ordered as they were out of many items and we had to alter our meals). As much as it could be DD at fault, our last visit to the same Panera resulted in 2 missing entrees when we did curbside pickup. read more
