New location. Used the drive thru. Quick and quality food came out! Very well packaged for travel. Still warm when arriving home. Muffins were soft and still fresh a day later. Had the social ciabatta bread with chicken pesto and cheese. Loaded with chicken and just the right amount of sauce. They do have a rewards program. read more

I really love this new Panera. The employees were so nice and helpful anytime we needed something. The location does have sell ordering kiosks as you walk in but we bypassed that and went straight to the register as that's just easier for me most of the time. I tried out one of their new bagel sandwiches with a side of tomato soup. Delicious! I always feel pretty good about eating at Panera as their meats rate higher quality compared to other "fast food" establishments. This location also has an area for kids to play. I absolutely loved seeing that as it seems so rare these days. I didn't snap a photo though as children were occupying the area. Excited to come back! read more

Picked up a bowl of homestyle chicken noodle soup for a sick friend. Dropped it off. She just texted me to tell me there was no chicken, noodles, or vegetables. Just broth. No wonder this location has such trash reviews. I'll never bother stopping here again. read more

My kids requested Panera after grocery shopping for smaller items at our nearby Winco. My kids love their mac anent cheese here. They will ask for it every other visit. They usually order the same half sandwich with a soup or a bowl of Mac and cheese with their baguette. My first mobile app order was fairly easy and the app is user friendly! Two wins for me! I didn't place my order until I picked up my breakfast burritos from Roberto's across the parking lot. The outside of this newer Panera looks like the others. I expect the inside to model the other chain restaurants. The girls working were very bubbly and welcoming. I would use this app again and appreciate the quick and friendly service and my kids hot food. read more

While staff is friendly and the place is fairly clean, as many have noted, Panera prices continue to rise while quality is beginning to fade. Barely any chicken on the Frontega CHICKEN sandwich today. Pretty sure Panera is off my list from here on. read more

Went to Panera for lunch yesterday. Bread was hard as rock and soup not hot, and the sandwich was covered in sauce. Been sick ever since. Shitting out my brains and pretty sure it gave me a food poisoning. 3 days later still can barely eat read more

After Physical Therapy, we stopped at Panera Bread, I haven't eaten at one since they've popped up in Nevada. I got the half of tuna with chicken noodle soup. I love the soup at Panera you can't go wrong with any of the soups so flavorful. I was a bit disappointed in my tuna sandwich, it was all bread and barely any tuna mostly lettuce. For my side a got the Panera kettle chips, they're always tasty and I love the crunch. I usually take photos, but today I was too hungry to think about it after my workout at PT. Panera was wheelchair friendly and the door can be a challenge, but people are so nice to open the door for you. I look forward to going back and trying another sandwich or maybe a salad. I like the Pick - 2 items deal. read more

Had the Italian Market Salad, it was excellent. All the food we had was good and up to the standards we experienced in Virginia. The employee that bussed the table was very nice and informative. It is a very new restaurant. The ambiance is clean and pleasant. They have a very nice indoor playground for kids up to 12. We will definitely come back. Looking forward to soup in the winter. read more

I've gone through the drive thru once and have had delivery a handful of times with Door Dash. Service has been great with each order. I love their cheese broccoli soup and half turkey sandwich which comes with a baget. The food has always come hot and fresh with no issues. read more

Love the design of this new Panera in town. It's very open concept where most of the other paneras are so boxy and cut off. My kiddos enjoyed the play place. We used the tablet to order so didn't really have any interactions with the staff. The food was tasty however a little pricey. read more

I went to Panera yesterday about 10am. I've never been to one before and was excited to go because everyone seems to love it. I was impressed with the selection of baked goods. Also, how modern and clean the store was, but I suppose that's because it's only opened the day before. There were lots of staff there and the cashier that took my order was being overseen by someone shadowing her. I did find in interesting that she asked me if I had a phone number on file for rewards. I told her I didn't, but she didn't follow up to suggest that I join to earn rewards. It was hard to decide what to get with all the choices, but I settled on the special Ham Croissant Benny (it was marked as New & Limited Time) and the Four Cheese Souffle. I ordered everything to-go. Overall, the food was good. Tho, my Benny was dry the first couple of bites because the sauce was not evenly spread across the croissant. Once I got to the sauce the sandwich was excellent. My DH liked the souffle but thought for the price it was on the small side. He said the favor was really good but wasn't sure that it was worth almost $8.00. The total order cost $15.79 with tax. The service was good. I had to wait about 7 minutes for my food. There was a cool monitor which showed the progress of my order, which was really nice. I didn't have to worry that I didn't hear my name being called. They have a nice little play structure for the kids. I was a little underwhelmed, but it could be that my expectations were too high based on how much everyone loved Panera. I would go back tho probably not often. read more

I have a serious love hate for Panera. It's yummy but as we call it in our house, it's like 5 star dining because it's so expensive. Like $40 for two of us to eat dinner. Which is just insane because it's just soup/salad/sandwiches. I could go to Olive Garden for cheaper soup and get all I want. Soup was good. Could've been a bit warmer. Bread is bread and it's my love language so obviously I loved that. I felt like this location gave us larger serving sizes than the one on Neil. read more

If the name of your business has the word "bread" in it (actually two words), then your bread oughta be excellent. My husband and I went in for lunch. I had the mac and cheese. How hard is it to make good mac & cheese? The sauce was not cheesy or flavorful enough and it had a weird consistency from some kind of thickener. It came with a piece of bread, rubbery, chewy flavorless bread. Husband had the grilled chicken/BLT/avocado sandwich. The tomato leaked into the bread, making it soggy, which made the sandwich fall apart. The top of the sandwich was overloaded with mixed greens, consisting of more than half of all the components of the sandwich. Minimal chicken and bacon. The bag of chips he got with his meal was the highlight of his dining experience. We each got one chocolate chip cookie and they were good. Service was very fast. Restroom was clean. read more

This is for the Spanish Springs Panera Bread located at Tierra Del Sol Pkwy. I was in the drive-up and placed my order at 12:46. I ordered a half a bacon/turkey bravo sandwich and I was charged $11.29 plus tax. I could have gotten a half of a tomato/basil/BLT for $6.89 plus tax. So why the huge price difference? And, there was nobody in front of me in the drive-up, yet I had to wait over 10 minutes. Very disappointing. read more

The bread dough arrives frozen. The salads arrives pre made and bagged. The soups are prepared somewhere else.

The new location in Sparks is fantastic!! Love the layout and most importantly, love the staff! The two wonderful young ladies that helped me today around 10:00, thanks a bunch! I was in between breakfast and lunch and had questions and curiosities that they totally took care of!! I highly recommend the take 2! That Mexican street corn chowder was delicious! FULL of corn and lots of seasonings!! Get either the chicken bacon rancher with it or the spicy fiesta sandwich with it!! Packed with flavor and who doesn't love a hot sandwich!!! Bread was so tender and love the choice of sides! Thank you for a really great experience! Oh don't forget! Get the candy cookie too!! It's delightful!!!!! read more

Panera Bread - Take twos!! One with chicken bacon rancher and the other with spicy fiesta chicken! - Salad Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Came here and kind of read the same thing that I'm going to post about! But seems like a common issue. Panera is pretty straightforward. Sandwiches and soups. I've had them at diff states. The outlet here do need to train their staff. Our sandwiches were wrong - my husband got a beef sandwich and it was labelled as avocado. Then another was missing. Drove back to pick up what we thought was a missing beef sandwich. Turns out they gave us the ago chicken. Maybe they found it. But then the bacon is his sandwich ended up in mind. Not that all mind boggling to make a sandwich. However if made right, it's always very good. read more

Went there today 1/1/26 at 11am. Mgr was rude, order was late, also wrong. I got the feeling he was still "feeling the party" from the night before (New Year's Eve). Panera should do better. Maybe more training or drug testing? read more

Open and very clean! They even have a small Play area for kids. Staff was friendly and food was good. The manager was walking around doing a great job and keeping everything in line. Happy to have them in Spanish Springs! read more

$9.85 for a 6 ounce cup of macaroni and cheese? $12 for half a sandwich? Its good, but not that good. It was $55 for 2 cups of macaroni and cheese, 3 drinks, and half a sandwich, I dont understand how they will last, especially when the place is empty all the time. Nice ambience ​​ read more

The second time being there, that was a mistake. Prices are way too high for what you get. Got my order messed up. I ordered a half sandwich and got a whole one. Order a bowl of Potato Soup, only half full. Order Ciabatta Cheesesteak, with hardly any steak. That will be the last time my friends and I go there. read more

The store is really nicely designed and clean. I can't comment on the staff because we had no interaction with them other than having our name called. We ordered and paid on the kiosk which was ok, but hard to see with the microscopic print. The food tasted wonderful, but for the price, it wasn't nearly enough. Our breakfast croissants were tiny. Like four bites tiny. One of my biggest pet peeves is paying fairly high prices for food and leaving a restaurant still hungry. My wife was 5 star happy with it though. In the future I'll just walk across the parking lot to Roberto's for a breakfast burrito and get full. read more

So I decided to go to Panera for breakfast. The girl won't turn the breakfast menu because I was the only one there. Spent almost $15 for a latte and a real small half sandwich, toasted caprese. More people were coming so she turned the breakfast menu anyways! I told the manager about it because if I saw it I would have ordered something different like breakfast benny. Oh well, I've been ordering to go and they take too long, like you have to give them half an hour! And there's so many kids working back there! They don't even serve to your table! And they're not handicapped like me and none but the manager was willing to help! read more

The music is way too loud, like going to a rock concert. I asked them to turn down, employee refused to do so. My tomatoe soup was luke warm, not piping hot. The bread was hard as a rock, not fresh. You are better off going to a table service restaurant, much better bang for your buck. Way too expensive for what you get. read more

Super expensive for tiny portions but I knew that going in. My complaint is the the cold brew coffee I got had absolutely no coffee flavor, it was plain milk. One sandwich had more sauce on it than it did meat. I know they are newly open but the product they put out today was terrible. read more

I've been having trouble with my Panera app lately, but this morning Lennon was so quick to take my order and made the whole experience seamless. She had my order out fast and her kindness made my morning. It's always a great experience at this Panera location--customer service like this keeps our family coming back! read more

Good, fresh food. Just a little pricey but nice options and much better than other sandwich options in our area!

Never been to a Panera before so when the new one opened in Spanish Springs, Sparks NV, my wife and I decided to give it a try. The wait to order was about 15 minutes and the young lady at the register got our order wrong. We ordered two of the 1/2 sandwich / cup of soup orders. One of the orders was correct, my wife got a full sandwich instead of the 1/2 and cup of soup she ordered. We also ordered a smoothy, a soda and two scones. The food took around 25 minutes to prepare. They have your name on a constantly updating display list and for some reason, our name kept moving down the list instead of up the list. Took forever. The meal was $61.00 and change. Way over priced for what we ordered. The sandwich order for my wife ended up being $14.88, for a sandwich. Way way way over priced. We won't be back. read more

My first & last visit I went to Spanish Springs Panera's for my birthday lunch July 9, 2025 with 2 others, I intended on using my GO EAT $50 gift card. Ordered 1 sandwich, 2 soup & 1/2 sandwiches, 1 drink = $50.15. Upon me verifying my card balance, the employee & the Manager kept getting a decline, next the told me I had to pay another way. What? I was so embarrassed & the order line was getting longer. told the manager look the card has $50, & it's my birthday. Didn't even try & figure it out. Must be lack of training? or a scam? . I contacted Panera Customer Service they said the manager was processing it wrong. They compensated me $10. Hmmm , very expensive for a lot of bread, read more

First of all I love there macaroni and cheese. Service was slow it too them over 30 mins to get gift cards and then I order the chicken strawberry salad, which I check the receipt and it was the wrong salad. It was a strawberry poppy salad, which I did not order that. And I ordered the strawberry chicken Caprice salad. I did get a drink. They didn't charge me for the drink, but it was overpriced. Do not come and I wish that they know what they need to be doing. read more

Panera Bread - Salad Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Ordered take out twice both times the sandwiches were wrong. The last time we ordered 4 sandwiches and all of them were missing ingredients. Two of them were regular sandwiches no add ons. We will not be returning customers to that Panera. read more

I was honestly shocked by just how awful the service was. To start, my order was almost entirely wrong or missing items. I ordered online and they gave me the wrong sandwich, they also didn't give me the bread bowl for my soup. When I brought this up the girl at the window just told me they were out and didn't seem to want to try to fix the situation, even though I payed for the bread bowl. After waiting awkwardly she offered to size up our soup. When we parked to check our food we saw we had the wrong sandwich, and no utensils. We went inside and it was so crazy in there. Nobody wanted to help us but the young girl at the counter. She looked like she had no idea what to do. Eventually she took our order back and said the kitchen would remake our food. Also, I know it's Panera policy to offer a cookie when something like this happens, but they didn't fulfill this until I asked. Fifteen minutes later and the sandwich still wasn't done. The girl said she would go check on it, then never came back. Then I watched the manager Brian make a worker come tell me it's being worked on because he refused to speak to us. Also, I watched them start making the sandwhich- which means that they hadn't even started fixing the order until then. Also, something that was so weird was the other manager Riley was actively drinking a DutchBros coffee at the register while taking orders AND IN THE KITCHEN, which is a health code violation. I've never seen that. Another ten minutes later and the manager Brian made a very sweet young worker take the blame for the food and throw themself under the bus. By the time I got back to my car, all our food was cold and the sun was set. At no point were we offered anything for our troubles. No refunds or coupons or compensation. We had to beg for them to fix the food we ordered, they honestly looked annoyed and confused that we wanted the stuff we paid for. Anyways, Panera do better. I feel bad for the workers under that management. And I know it's all under the general manager, Anthony's, fault. Also girl, to the manager Riley drinking DutchBros in the kitchen, people notice, and that means the health department does too. Bad look. read more

The employees need more training. First time they got my order wrong. Not once but twice! Took 45 mins to get the correct order and that was ordering inside. Next time was a 30 minute wait in the drive through for a sandwich. Not a single apology for the wait. Very rude! Do better! read more

We went to have a nice quiet dinner the music was too loud we couldn't talk and Panera is expensive for those prices. You should be able to have a nice quiet dinner. I felt like I was in a Rock concert. The soup was cold or lukewarm, and they wouldn't turn the music down. read more

Yummy food at Panera. Too bad they don't have gluten free bread but the friendly service from Makenzie at the register made up for it. We'll be back! read more

Was excited to see Panera opening in Spanish springs. We haven't been to one in years. The store is spacious and beautiful. I understand they are new, but their employees could have used a little more training on their menu. It took forever to order and the young lady had me throughly confused because she was not knowledgeable about the menu and kept getting confused. I ordered three pick twos and it was $60! Insane! For that price I expected bigger portions. I'm not sure we will be back anytime soon. Hopefully in the mean time the employees become better acquainted with their memo so they can answer questions and help customers. read more

Was excited when I heard there was a Panera opening near by, but extremely disappointed when I went there about a week ago. Years ago I enjoyed their baguettes and other sandwich breads sliced on demand. Upon entering I walked past what looked like several ordering kiosks, since I wanted to see what bread selections they have and since I don't work their or get benefits I don't need to order this way. There was one young lady that walked past me...okay not her job I guessed. There was another young lady to my left where the register was, but then a man with a distinct mustached walked towards the display case I was standing at with their breads. He never looked at me even though I was 3 feet away from him, rather looking at some sort of paperwork, I realized he had no intentions of acknowledging me. I asked the young girl 20ft away if she would help me...I asked if they had baguettes? Now Mr. Mustache was ready to acknowledge my existence, they are right there... No, those are "rustic" and notched to make half sandwiches...do you have your regular baguettes? No that is all we have...While you may risk your life pulling out of the parking lot to get back on Pyramid, that doesn't matter much to me anymore as I will not be back again! read more
