took super long to get our order taken. say for about 25 minutes just in the drive thru to get our food and to pay. the people would not even open up the window to run our card while we waited for food. not a great experience. either need more workers or need to get on top of their things. read more

Ordered tuna sandwich with cashier around 1.30pm on Friday but he forgot to ask what side I wanted. When I pick up order I saw chip in the bag so I ask if I can change to apple instead. The lady who was there grab my chip and threw it right in the trash can and said she cannot take back food! Her attitude was uncalled for. read more

I used to love the rustic sourdough bread and would go every week to buy a loaf or 2, BUT recently they have changed things. The new bread is awful!!!!!! Does not taste like sourdough, gummy, big holes in it and the texture is really bad. Shame on you for taking a delicious bread and make it really BAD!!!!!! Never will I go back. read more

We were traveling to Missouri and we needed something to eat when we were going to the airport and we saw Panera bread. Panera is one of our favorite places to go in San Diego where we live and they have consistent quality no matter where you are. My husband ordered his always usual green goddess chicken salad with a piece of bread and I ordered my latest favorites which are the Baja bowls and the Mediterranean bowls you can get them with or without chicken. I opted for the Mediterranean bowl today without chicken because I wanted the hummus and all the yummy veggies and healthy greens rice and quinoa and cucumbers and it was delicious. It was just the right thing to have before we boarded our flight and I'm so glad we stopped at Panera. They had great service friendly employees and it was nice and quiet inside the restaurant and plenty of seating with ample lighting. Here is a great place to just hang out and read and study and enjoy your food and they have great drinks too And plenty of baked goods to tempt you. read more

Spinach Bacon souffle was thrown in sack with no lid I called store and that is the how the soufflé is served They apologized when I called but I expected more I spent 18.00 on these 2 items with free delivery. never again. read more

Well, on the roller coaster of could be good or mediocre. The quiche oven still isn't working. The oven has had a problem since earlier this summer. It could be another two weeks. Supply and demand issues, I guess. My wife came with me this morning; she hasn't been here in a long time. She ordered a bagel and bacon sandwich, no egg. Surprise bagel bacon EGG sandwich is what she got. Par for the course and why she says this is why I haven't been here for a hot minute. read more

The sandwich didn't have half of what it should have on it. The portions are too small for the $ paid. Disappointing.

I keep saying I'm not going back yet for some reason, I keep going back. $40 for 2 cups of soup and 2, half sandwiches, 1 soda and 1 water. I can get 2 lbs of fresh brisket from Buccees and feed my family of 6. Soup was good, sandwich was just too much hard bread and not enough anything else. As usual, pretty disappointed. But hey, service was good from unfriendly people. read more

I couldn't believe how dirty this panera was, especially during a pandemic. Trays littered most every vacant table, and they were never picked up during my stay the other tables that were available were full of crumbs and trash. They also only brought one item off our ticket and thought the rest had been delivered. I had to wait a while more for a cold bagel. It wasn't busy today, so I'm not sure how they kept dropping the ball. Very disappointed. read more

The inflated prices Panera charges these days for mediocre food is hard to believe. I paid around $8 for a half salad yesterday that wouldn't even fill up a toddler. Their frozen coffee, while good, is around the same price as a venti at Starbucks, but the size of a tall. Panera has always been fairly expensive, but the portion sizes were at least reasonable 10+ years ago. I hope Panera rethinks their business model. It would be one thing if their food in real life actually looked like the food they show on the menu, but the real life version is pathetic. I won't be going back unless their prices and portion sizes become reasonable. Panera is a complete ripoff!! read more

We have gone to different Panera's in the past. The staff was very helpful and service was fast and good. I am not sure why others had a problem here. It was a good visit at the supper hour on a Saturday night. Would recommend their newest flatbread pizzas read more

I miss St. Louis Bread Co. circa 2000. I remember when they had all kind of different options of sandwiches with excellent flavor. Now insultingly boring menu and extremely overpriced. What a joke. I'll take the Schlotzsky's next door any day!!! read more

the food is excellent. I meet friends for bagels and lunch frequently. the smell of baking bread when you enter the door is wonderful. I would highly recommend it is a good place to get together w friends and talk and eat read more

Ok Panera Bread! What in the world is this mess. Visited on March 10th at 11:55am. Does this look like a green smoothie to you?? I asked for a green smoothie using the super fruit base. Not only does it look absolutely gross it smells like garbage. I could tell the staff had a complete attitude with having to make a slight change to how they normally make their smoothies, so sorry I asked. Just say no when people ask for something different, instead of mixing up some crap and trying to be funny. This is truly not funny to me. $6 for something had to put in the trash can. read more

I use to LOOOOVE this place but now it just seems to get worse and worse. Their bagels just aren't the same, they're dried out most the time. Their sandwiches are disgusting now and usually made wrong. Sometimes the staff is friendlyish. Panera just isn't what it used to be. Pretty sad to see a place you love go to shit. Definitely giving up on this place though. read more

Chicken sandwich; stale cold bun, dry chicken. However extra point since staff was nice.

Stopped in for a Danish and coffee. Place was very clean and staff was pleasant. Good atmosphere for catching up on some paperwork

My breakfast egg sandwich was much smaller than usual. Usually have a x-large egg. This time I think was xx-small. I opened up sandwich and showed staff Person didn't care or offer to replace. For &4.89, needs improvement. read more

I stayed away from Panera for almost 2 years after my last disappointing visit. Well, @ 6:30 am yesterday I decided to give it another try, another disaster folks! The last thing I want, or expect at that hour, is cold day old bagels, right out of the reefer obviously. Wham, yet again they dropped the ball in my opinion. Growing up in New York, I know what REAL BAGELS, are supposed to be. Warm, soft, just the right amount of chewy. Someone from Panera should really travel there and experience the joy of fresh bagels. Never again will I let Panera ruin my breakfast, my morning, or disappoint me in such a expensive mess of a way, for too much $$$! How you manage to fool all these hillbillies is beyond me. As someone, 65, who has been cooking and baking since the age of 12, I know what good food is. I can prepare it myself, at home. Thank you Mom & the USMC, for educating me in proper food service ways, and general hospitality practice... PS: maybe in addition to sanitation and safety inspections, we send in some real foodies to grade restaurants or pseudo bakeries on qualities that matter?? read more

Food is good, I got the turkey club sandwich and the salad. Very fresh, fairly fast. Slightly pricey when factoring it was a cold sandwich and a really small salad (salad was the side), roughly $8.50. Overall the restaurant is clean and new, service was friendly. Try the soup and bread bowl for sure! read more

Great food! Good service. Clean restaurant. If you get their soup, you have to get it in their sourdough bread bowl. It's amazing!!!!! Their summer corn chowder is so good! Their salads are good. Cookies decent. Bagels so so good. Try their Asiago bagel, or cinnamon crunch bagel. Their tuna sandwiches are really good too. And we always get a "large" loaf of sour dough bread to take home. read more

I really love the food at Panera Bread, however, my husband drove through today and placed the order, including a steak and arugula sandwich with no pickled onions. What we received was a sandwich with EXTRA pickled onions with the bread so soggy that it fell apart. For a $10 sandwich they ought to be able to get it right! Thank God I'm not allergic to them! This was my meal at an event and I had no choice but to deal with it or go hungry. NOT A HAPPY CAMPER!!! Never again! read more

They completely changed their menu and the new chicken noodle soup is not my favorite. Now I don't know what to order when I get there. One visit there was no clean tables, the tables needed to be wiped down and didn't seem very clean to me. read more

It's ok, but very pricey for what you get. I've had good pastries there, and stale pastries. Just ok!

Ever since what looks like a new manager has taken over, the service has gone downhill. One time, I ordered food pickup for rapid delivery, didn't check it, and they forgot my soup. The next two times I ordered from there, they ran out of the bakery treats I ordered and just neglected to tell me, while leaving my food sitting up there in a bag until I finally went up there to get it myself. The last and final straw was when I ordered food from this location for delivery. Ordered it at 4:15, they were supposed to have it delivered by 5:00. One hour later...no call to tell me it was late, and no food. I called the store a total of twelve times (I wish I was exaggerating. I'm not), and no one picked up the phone. I had to call the main Panera office to get resolution, and even THEY couldn't get a hold of the restaurant. Long story short: visit the National Location near Missouri State University if you want excellent service. I've never had problems with them. read more

This is the new location with a drive through on Campbell to replace the one that used to be in the Parkcrest Shopping center. I came in on a Sunday morning to pick up a bread order and it was packed! The layout must be new as it is different and far more upscale than the traditional Panera look. The staff was numerous, friendly, and helpful; getting in, picking up my order, paying, and out in less than 5 minutes. It took me longer to get back out on the street as it's not in the best location for such a busy street, but the construction I saw means that hopefully the city is working on it. read more

Had a really nice breakfast of steel cut oats with quinoa and almonds. The oatmeal was a little cold but still had a nice flavor. I would have preferred a little more honey. The warm chi latte was very good. Restaurant was clean and the counter staff were very nice. read more

Service with a smile! My favorite soup is the chicken and rice with a warm French baguette on the side. Great open windows to let the light in in the morning. The staff is always ready to please. I always look forward to my stops at Panera. With the new high speed wifi makes it a great place to hang out and get some work done. read more

I eat lunch here daily. I am so happy for the drive thru. They are always pleasant and food is made in a timely manner. You can also order your food online, which is awesome! I've had almost everything on the menu and it's all good. If you need to just get a quick bite this is s great spot to go. They have tons of soups, salads, and sandwiches to choose from. I am a salad and sandwich person so those are my main foods. They also have great deserts and fresh baked bread. If you want to sit and relax with your laptop you can do that as well very laid back environment. Great Place! read more

I love this Panera. It's in the perfect spot. You can swing up there after shopping at Wal-Mart or before heading out of town. I like how big it is, and how easy it is to park. I like that it is near other shops. read more

I love Panera, but I am consistently disappointed by this location. My biggest complaint is the lack of cleanliness. The doors are always covered in smudgy finger prints/ handprints, the floors are littered with crumbs and old napkins, and dirty dishes are left on tables. Neither of my past two visits were during peak hours so that can't be an excuse for not being able to find time to tidy up the place. In addition to the lack of cleanliness, the service isn't always top notch either. On my previous visit, the cashier entered my telephone number into the register incorrectly so I was unable to receive credit for my visit on my rewards card. When I noticed the problem, the manager was unable to correct it and was unable to refer me to someone who could help (no 1-800 number or website, etc). She offered me a pastry for my trouble. I'm trying to be health conscious and when I told her I did not want the pastry, she was unable to offer anything else, and continued to repeat that she could give me a pastry and do nothing else. Frustrating. I want to like this location because it is the closest one to my house. I keep giving them the benefit of the doubt but each time it is a let down. Please, make cleanliness a higher priority. I want to keep coming back but will start driving farther just to go to a nicer location. read more

I ordered a "pick-two" today for delivery. I didn't choose anything "upgraded" and had no drink included. I decided to tip the driver since I cannot tell if he receives any of the $3.00 delivery fee. The total of my order, including the tip and tax, was nearly $20.00. That's outrageously expensive for a half sandwich and a half salad. The food was good, the delivery was great, but I won't be placing a delivery order from Panera again when there are much cheaper options nearby. read more

The only thing is that the tint on the windows is dark so it made it a little hard to tell if they were open or not (especially on 4th of July) while driving by. Luckily, we arrived an hour before they closed. Otherwise I say this Panera is awesome and is right across the street from the mall. I ordered the french onion soup bread bowl and split a bacon turkey bravo sandwich. It was delicious. There is plenty of parking outside. read more

Great locale and friendliest staff. The lady at the front counter was so nice. I had my usual pick 2...summer corn chowder and strawberry poppy with chicken salad. Also, the pecan roll was the perfect compliment as an additional $.99 item. I will be back! read more

Panera used to be my favorite but I'm running out of reasons to love it. My favorite sandwich and salad are no longer available. The panini I have gotten for the last year keeps getting smaller. Tonight my husband and I spent $28. I got a tiny portion of a panini and a salad with hardly any dressing. Their dressing containers are half the size of a normal restaurant, and they only filled my container less than half way. So literally not enough for even the top portion of my half salad. So disappointing. Too expensive for just OK. read more

Is it just me or is their menu maddeningly confusing and ultimately pricey for what you get--after all, you stand in line to order & then bus your own table as their final insult before the door hits you in the rear! 3 lunches with tap water over $30! Next time AVIARY! read more

Very good food and drinks. Very friendly staff. Very clean and spacious venue. Minus 1/2 star for cost. Soup and sandwiches for a family of 3 can cost over $30, which seems high. Minus 1/2 star for very slow and unreliable WIFI. My 3G/4G service is better than their WIFI. read more

Disappointing! Brand new pretty store, but poor service. We ate on a Sunday evening. I ordered the cranberry turkey flatbread and asked to add mozzarella, which was a .50 upcharge. The serving was small and I could barely even find the mozzarella. My husband wanted a full sandwich and soup as a you pick two and was told he couldn't do that, so we paid handsomely for him to have a full sandwich. There were no baguettes and no apples for sides, we were only offered chips as a side. If there was good customer service, they would have apologized and offered some other items, or a discount. The manager was not visible. We paid a lot of money for very little food. read more
