This is totally different from most of the Panera branches. They are only serving breakfast for a short span of time. Some staffs are not friendly. read more

Got my salad wrong, added $3 worth of avocado to get a spoonful. By the time my salad came out my family was finished eating. I was also served a dirty fork. This location was rough, dirty tables, stuffy. Other locations have been better than this one by miles. read more

Horrible service. Employees neglecting customers. 15 min to get coffee. Service is really bad

This review is about the food, which was disappointing. The service here is consistently good (except for attention to detail in this situation,) they are always cheerful and attentive at this restaurant. My issue is my order was wrong, and what I got was not great. I ordered a Bacon Turkey Bravo full sandwich at the register. What I got was mostly greasy bread with less than a bite of bacon per sandwich half, several drippy tomatoes and a smear of cheese. I was confused eating it, searching for anything other than bread and tomatoes in this mess, wondering what a girl has to do to get a bite of turkey, bacon, or cheese. Looked at my receipt, turns out what the guy actually put in was a Bacon Tomato Grilled Cheese. Which honestly would have been fine, except, again, there was one small smear of cheese goop and maybe one or two small chunks of diced bacon per sandwich half, leaving me feeling disappointed and still hungry. I'm just glad I used a gift card on it. read more

It's Panera. We know what to expect, at least food wise when you come here. 1. Location-It's great downtown at the Landing in Renton. Street parking is available as well as a nearby garage. 2. Customer service is great here. Friendly and efficient. My order was wrong and the clerk went above and beyond to remedy it. 3. Pricing is good and affordable. 4. Atmosphere is nice and clean. In short, I'll be back to enjoy a meal here at this location. I hope this helps in your decision to come to this location. read more

Took my sister there for lunch yesterday. She ordered a turkey sandwich and chips and dill pickle. I had the Mediterranean sandwich and chips and dill pickle. The cashier was a young man and was very friendly and nice but he did not give me a receipt or tell me how I would receive my food. I had to ask him and then he told me they would call out my name. Waited about 10 minutes which isn't bad and got the sandwiches. Went to the table and my sister notice she did not get the pickle. I went up to the chefs and ask them for a pickle since they did not include it with my sisters turkey sandwich., The guy gave me a very dirty look and threw two pieces of pickle in a cup and handed it to be!! Horrible since it was his mistake!! There was a very nice lady cleaning tables and we asked for a bag for leftovers and she brought us over two boxes for our half sandwiches and two bags and she was wonderful!! I give her 5 stars!!! Also, the bread on my Mediterranean sandwich had crust all the way around period, I had to pull it off and could not eat all that crust. read more

Horrible for pick up. Always check your order before leaving. 1st time we ordered French onion soup they forgot the fixings to the soup. 2nd time we order the soup they forget to give the soup!!!! And they won't answer the phone to fix the problem. Frustrated. No interest in going back there. read more

1st time to this location. My niece, Katana & I came for lunch. Had the Fuji salad & added on strawberries & pineapple (Miss the Strawberry Poppy seed salad) and the Chipotle Chicken avocado melt on flat bread. My niece also had the Fuji salad with the Roasted Turkey cranberry on flatbread. Pretty big location, it was busy. Clean location. Customer service was great. read more

I ordered from their online kiosk and they still delivered friendly and attentive human customer service. The store is very clean and tidy.

Panera bread = deliciousness. This is my favorite place at The Landing; it is quick, convenient and the food is great. I suggest this as more of a lunch place, as it mostly is soups, sandwiches and salads; not very filling for a dinner entree, in my opinion. I always get the You Pick Two - ALWAYS the Chicken Caesar Salad, and then I will alternate between the soups, sandwiches and panini's (is that how you make panini plural? haha sorry, I'm tired). With the Chicken Caesar Salad, it kinda depends on the person making it as to how good it will be; sometimes they hook it up on the chicken, sometimes you get barely any. Sometimes its drenched, like really really drenched, in dressing, other times there is barely any. The sandwiches tends to remain the same quality, which is really good. I love the Smoked Turkey Sandwich. Soup wise I get the Chicken Noodle, sometimes it is very salty, but normally is fantastic. Watch out for the lunch rush, the line can tend to go out the door. You can pre-order online and pick up in store. The cashiers/service here is usually pretty fast, and everyone is friendly. I like to get my food to go then head down the street about a 1/2 mile to Gene Coulon Park and eat while overlooking Lake Washington. Join the rewards club, you get random surprises sometimes! read more

***Catering Review Only*** One of the perks in my professional life, is catered lunch x1/week, which means I have had the priviledge (and in some cases not a priviledge) to try out various catering services. Catered lunches at work just became happier... why?... Panera Bread! *Enough utinsils each delivery and then some *Temperature quality of hot and cold items *Prompt service *food quality the same eating-in as catering I do not handle the ordering or paying of catering, but I am told by my friend who coordinates catering their prices are much cheaper than other catering services we have used =D I would definitely recommend their catering for lunch options! read more

There service sucks. I walked into the shop and no one at the register spoke or welcomed me in. I stood there waiting to be helped. While two employees talked to one another and the other stocking cups. Still no one came to help me. So I walked out. read more

Penera Renton Landing Disappointed! It was about 5pm on Saturday my daughter asked to go to Penera to eat. As we order our meal my daughter ordered a Caesar salad they said they were out of Romain lettuce they can't make it, as she looked over the menu to find something else I ordered a soup.... sorry sir we just ran out.... at 5 pm they only had 3 soups available I said ok I'll order the other soup sorry sir we ran out of that as well.... ok they wee down to one soup. I go to order the sandwich and I was told that they were out of one of the ingredients but the could sub something else. My daughter said that she really just wanted a salad. And that could we eat somewhere else I said sure thing... she then asked if we could get a couple of candy cookies to go... again they were out.... 5 pm on a Saturday with four more hours to operate their business missing many ingredients.... somebody fell short on doing there stock food order! They really didn't seam to care so I'm guessing it must happened a lot? We eat at Penera a lot and will give it a try again. We have run into this before here being out of a few minor things but today they really failed! If I was the franchisee I would be Embarrassed. Overall: Couldn't order -3 stars better luck next time... Can I recommend the place? NO... The one at the landing do at your own risk Will I be back? Probably against my better judgement. read more

Ordered some tomato soup the other day, to go. Both my daughter and I ordered this. When I got home to eat, there was tho strange chunk of something that should not be in tomato soup. I reached out to Panera, but only received a canned response despite being unable to complete my meal. I'll never eat here again, disgusting. read more

Panera Bread - strange object found in my tomato soup - Sandwiches Near Me - Renton, Washington

SO extremely slow!! I ordered a cup of chicken noodle with a slice of bread.. The customer who ordered a few minutes after me got her food before I did! She ordered a full meal, a cookie, and a smoothie.. Don't ask, I don't know how that works either! The slice of baguette bread that was given had a HUGE piece missing. Not so much the breads fault due to how it was baked, but the staff who cut it should've spotted it and quality control (if any exists there) should've NOT let that piece out! I reached in for my to go cup of chicken noodle and the lid was loose (I drove it all the way back to work, too!) and the bag and napkins got all wet! To top it off, the cup was full of broth!! I'm SURE I ordered CHICKEN NOODLE soup and not just broth.. Such a huge disappointment! I was at Target earlier and really contemplated if I should have bought Campbell's chicken noodle soup but figured that Panera would be heartier and healthier.. well, by the looks and price of it, I should've gotten Campbell's!! I would've been full and still had some change left over at least! Unbelievable!! Believe the reviews for this location.. it really does suck!! read more

Panera Bread - The bread that was given with my soup.. They must've forgotten the other half.. - Sandwiches Near Me - Renton, Washington

What is all the buzz of this place? I always heard the food was good and I had a itch for a sandwich. You know, I don't remember what I ordered but I know it sounded like it would be delicious. Wrong, so so wrong. It literally had no taste to it. The bread was hard and plain, even though it was suppose to be one of those artisan breads. What happened to the spread, lettuce and tomato? Nasty tasting slice tomato combined with one small lettuce leaf and a nonexistent spread, fail. My kids also got some hot chocolate and their thoughts? Wayyyyyyyy too sweet! What were they thinking? Just because they're kids, let's fill half the cup with chocolate syrup! Gross, what a waste especially when you charge me $3 for each. If I wanted to give my kids chocolate syrup, I'd buy it at the grocery store myself. Will I ever step back into Panera Bread, any of them? That would be a definite NO. read more

I'm happy to see a new Panera Bread opened up at The Landing. This is my go-to restaurant for a quick and healthy meal. The 'you pick two' salad, soup, or sandwich combo is my favorite. Definitely try the vegetarian cream tomato soup! read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Renton, Washington

Saturday afternoon and my friend is at the doctor's office across the street. I've heard so many things about Panera Bread and the commercials... food as it should be. I thought perfect, I'll go get her a nice bowl of soup and a grilled cheese sandwich to go. Now I am giving Panera a 2-star because the soup was Ok... not great, but ok. However the grilled cheese sandwiches were AWFUL!!! Whoever taught them how to make grilled cheese sandwiches needs to go back to southern cooking school. They were wimpy not toasty, and absolutely tasteless. I would say they tasted like paper but it would be an insult to paper. Even the cheese was tasteless. It was like eating flour and water dough with goop in the middle. Cheese whiz would have been better. Clean food, real food? I guarantee that was not real cheese. Grilled cheese as it should never be. read more

This location happens to be my neighborhood Panera Bread and I absolutely love every time I come here. The service is phenomenal. I find that the staff always greets me with a warm hello and is eager to help me order. Their salads have to be my favorite dishes. You will find that their menu offers hearty and healthy selections when it comes to soup, sandwiches, and salads. It's the perfect place to come for lunch in my opinion. You have an option of placing your order online and coming to pick it up ready to go so that you don't have to wait. When I used to work in Bellevue it was one of my favorite alternative. I recommend checking out the location and Renton at the Landing. This location is clean the service is speedy and the food is delicious. You really must check it out if you're in the area. read more

Panera Bread - Thai Chicken Salad - Sandwiches Near Me - Renton, Washington

I love Panera. Okay, don't laugh, but I thought you could only get bread bowls at Disney land since that's the first and last place I ever had one and I've never been able to find a place that made them. My coworker told me Panera made bread bowls and I was just so excited! I've tried two of their sandwiches and almost all their soups. I haven't been disappointed yet. I also love their fudge brownies and cinnamon rolls. My coworkers all love the coffee here, especially the hazel nut. This location tends to be pretty busy whenever I go, which is quite often for lunch. They have indoor and outdoor seating which is nice, and you can usually find a table. The staff are all really nice as well. November challenge (11/05/2012) read more

Why are you guys so consistently terrible? This is enough dressing for two bites of food and have always had to order extra just to get the entire salad covered. Not to mention your chili stopped being cooked and the beans are hard every single time and also I could tell the teriyaki bowl was just microwaved cause some of the chicken was cold and some was not. God awful. read more

There are a few sandwich shops in the Landing, but Panera adds more variety, albeit overpriced variety, and "healthier" options, but sandwiches and paninis are tiny with maybe a couple slices of deli meat, you get nearly all bread. There is usually more meat in their salads than sandwiches. Even their salads are but a handful of chopped lettuce plus a few toppings and an overload of dressing. The taste itself is usually better than most other places around, but there isn't much quality there, and little quantity either. I feel like I'm paying for other people to sit around all day on Panera's WiFi. I do like their bakery items, especially their bagels. Wasted $3 on a latte once. They have messed up my order almost every time, either wrong meats, missing an extra, wrong extra, girl taking my order doesn't listen well and I can't understand her, and that is why I prefer online ordering where I can visually verify what I am ordering, and that would be very helpful in-store as well. Why do I come here? I ask myself after every visit. I still don't know, maybe I just need something a little less covered in cheese or grease than I'd get elsewhere. Panera packs in the tables and seats where I usually get bumped by someone walking and trying to get to a seat. read more

Broccoli cheddar soup is the best with side of fresh bread and the chicken and wild rice soup so good I definitely recommend eating here

I order the bagel pack for my work group and the bagels were not sliced. Why would you get the bagel pack unsliced or the attendant not asking if you would not want it sliced. Plenty bagel options in the area. I won't come back and recommend other options in the area read more

I definitely would recommend this place for informal meetings and deli lunch. Although the Landing restaurants aren't located in convenient parking areas for handicap or elderly people, this one has plenty of street parking nearby. I like their soup and sandwiches combo and especially their help yourself coffee and tea bar. Love the teas! Service is pretty quick too. I am going to breakdown and sign up for their Panera Card. read more

Panera Bread - Panera at The Landing - Sandwiches Near Me - Renton, Washington

Glad they still serving my fav dish: Bacon Mac&cheese during pandemic, which is a good thing. However, the mediocrity of this branch stayed the same. Parking always full, not improving even a bit. One thing they did okay was half of the outdoor& indoor seating were sealed at this special moment. Summertime is no longer hot for Panera and the people who worked there. read more

This particular location seems a bit dated. The restroom was small, but relatively clean. Standard Panera menu, cashier was friendly and patient. What surprised me was that even though it was 7:00 in the morning, most of the tables had crumbs on them and looked like they hadn't been really wiped down from the night before. I noticed the carpet had a fair number of crumbs as well. I ordered the avocado, egg white and spinach brioche, which looked pretty but fell apart as I ate it. No fork was provided, and while I suppose I could have gone searching for one, I just used my fingers. The ingredients were fresh, but just a bit on the bland side. I wish they provided salt and pepper at the table instead of little packets, but that's my preference (less waste). All in all, it was OK, just not a location I would recommend. read more

Panera Bread - Avocado, egg white, spinach on brioche. - Sandwiches Near Me - Renton, Washington

Always a great experience here. We love the half and half specials which are actually huge portions of each half. I like to get the Broccoli Cheddar Soup and Greek salad combo which also comes with your choice of apple, bread, or something else that I can't remember. I always get the bread and go very liberal on the butter. Everything tastes fresh and great here and we are never disappointed. Would recommend to anyone looking for a healthy ish ten dollar lunch. read more

Panera Bread - You pick 2 chicken and wild rice soup with chicken and almond sandwich. - Sandwiches Near Me - Renton, Washington

Over the last few months I have gone to Panera Bread at the Renton Landing location about 5 times. I always order their BBQ Chicken Flatbread, with no cheese due to dietary restrictions. However, it always comes out with a load of melted cheese on it. I am always very understanding, and kindly send it back. But it has reached a point where a basic request has been overlooked numerous times and I would enjoy being able to not cause friends and family to wait even longer for my order to be fixed. Being fixed not always once but sometimes multiple times in one sitting For example, the last time I went to Panera, I was with a friend. I went through the normal routine once we got our food of asking if they could please remake it, because they accidentally put cheese on it. All should have been well; it comes back out with no cheese. However they forgot both the BQQ sauce and the spinach. In front of me I have a pita with meat and onions, lacking 1/2 of the toppings. I am in hopes that in the future the staff will be able to accommodate no cheese or any basic request a customer may have due to allergens or any reason, and correctly put everything else on the flatbread as well. When it's made as ordered I find it very delicious, however the process leading up to that, I find quite repetitive and difficult. So if anyone has any restrictions within their diet and needs to have accommodations made to their order. I definitely would not recommend going to Panera, unless you are willing to wait an addition 10 minutes while everyone with you has already received their food. read more

Met a friend here as the middle ground since we live a couple hours apart from each other. She can't have gluten and they have zero gluten options so she asked for tea. She picked the place but it would be great for Panera to join the rest of the universe and have gluten free food options. I got a smoothie which tasted like chemicals, bleh. The place was totally dead with only 3 other customers on a Saturday morning. They didn't mind us sitting around for a couple hours chatting. The decor is tan, beige, and brown and reminiscent of a hospital lobby. Located in The Landing, a newish strip mall area in Renton. Food: 2.5 Service: 2 Parking: 4 Ambiance: 2 read more

I really like Panera. They have their ducks in a row. They offer good food, a wide variety and are quite friendly. My only complaint is the time it takes to place an order and wait for the food. There isn't a great place to camp out while you wait without feeling like you are lurking around the kitchen staff. I suppose they want you to take a seat while you wait, but during a busy lunch crowd I didn't want to use up a table when I knew I would be leaving shortly. The prices are a tad steep as well, and some of the options have horrific nutritional contents that would surprise you. I'm glad they have low-cal options, but some of the sleepers on the menu that masquerade as healthy are loaded with fat. read more

Sage the manager was very rude when I asked for assistance with my order. There was also a young lady in the kitchen with brown hair who was scowling at me. I am very disappointed and will be calling corporate. Also, clean your restrooms, please. SOOOO smelly!!!!!!! read more

Visited at 8am on a Thursday morning. I'm assuming this is a very busy location because there were crumbs on many of the tables. The cashier was present but not overly helpful or customer centric at all. No pleasantries, not even a how can I help you. She was sure to tell me I didn't have a reward in a curt tone which I already knew. So again, just odd service and it was as if she had a bad day, a chip on her shoulder or just didn't want to be there. I ordered a soufflé and she only gave me a fork . Which you definitely need a butter knife to get through the crust. I ordered a bottled water. Last week while visiting Tampa they gave me Fiji. This store gave me a brand I haven't experienced before. Food was typical of Panera. Service was basically nonexistent. I don't think I'd visit this location again unless they have an ordering kiosk or order online so I don't have to deal with people who don't want to serve/help anyhow. read more

I got there an hour before closing and they had no bread no chips and no avocado which I understand since it's close to closing. What really made the whole meal level up was the shortbread thumbprint cookie. It's so soft and crumbly it's my new favorite pastry! read more

While the scones are delicious, there are few other offerings that are exceptional. The sandwiches are okay, and the salads are hit or miss. Staff often seem more interested in interacting with each other than providing good service to customers. And perhaps my biggest complaint, you can almost never find a clean table. Unless I'm coming to grab a scone and leave, I don't usually stop here. There are just much better options within walking distance. read more

Cons: * not enough electrical outlets * some tables are too small * lighting is too dim for reading/studying read more
