A big Panera. They have ice tea - in a non-ice container instead of the cooler (just warm tea). So you have to use ice to cool it down. Staffers were busy, but figured out my order relatively quickly. There were others still waiting on their orders when I left, so they were getting impatient as they were there waiting. read more

Stopped for a French Dip sandwich, which was very good. But lost appetite when other customer took shoes off and left them in middle of the aisle. Crusty feet a turn off. Very overpriced. One and DONE read more

The assistant manager at this location during lunch hours is a level of costumer service that I never have encountered in any fast casual restaurant in the US. He alone gives this location 5 stars but the sandwich was ok and the butternut squash soup was excellent. Very relaxed seating areas. Will be back. read more

At the risk of sounding selfish, I miss the good old days when this location was not so popular & bustling. Smh. Nevertheless, soup (broccoli cheddar only) & salad never disappoint!! When it comes to panera, I'm a creature of habit. One day I'll venture out and try some of their new menu items... when I find them appealing. Until then, I'll stick with what hasn't failed my taste buds. read more

After watching the TV commercials of their new toasted baguettes, I decided to give it a try. I know that things are never the same as on TV, but this was as plain a sandwich as I've ever had. There was hardly sauce, and you would never know there was mozzarella in it. The place is nice the staff was friendly buy not enough for me to try again. read more

My clients wanted Panera for lunch and ended up picking up food. I ordered everything online and it was about $47. When I arrived I parked in the parking lot. I walked in and went to the pick up area and everything was ready. Before leaving I asked, what seemed to be the manager that was behind the counter, for a napkin and he kind of threw the napkins at me. I know its Covid but wow. He also had no mask on. When I got to my client's office all the food was there which is a plus. read more

On a recent business trip, my coworker and I stopped in to grab a quick breakfast at around 7:20am. Minus a couple of patrons also waiting for their to-go orders, the place was pretty empty. There were a couple of ladies working behind the counter setting up for the morning, but they quickly attended to us when we were ready to order. Torn between two options, I asked the lady at the counter which one is better: the Asiago bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich or a souffle. She said both are delicious and that's a really tough choice, so I went with the Asiago sandwich and my usual caramel latte. As I moved to a different counter to wait for pick up, the lady chased after me and asked, "Ma'am, if you would have ordered one of the souffles, which one would you have chosen?" I told her the spinach and bacon, and she came back later with the warm packaged souffle, saying, "I want you to be able to try both!" I thanked her twice for my double breakfast and she definitely helped me start my day on the right foot! Amazing service here that went above and beyond, will definitely come back!!! read more

Ordered Panera through DoorDash for lunch with a few coworkers. When I picked up the dressing container I saw this. I called the location and got a refund. The manager was very nice. I didn't want to eat any of my other food. My coworkers said their food also tasted off and we were missing a good amount of our order. I get mistakes happen and we weren't mad about the missing items but how do you put a moldy egg in someone's food? read more

For the third week in a row, the Springfield Panera's service is horrible. Every time I place an order online, I receive another one. Jesus Christ! read more

I don't go to Panera often so I can't compare this location to other ones. I've been here about 4 or 5 times. I usually get the Chipotle Chicken which I highly recommend. I only get the half order which for me is more than enough. You can also do the choose 2 option and save a little bit of money if you happen to want 2 different things. You also get to choose either a bag of chips or an apple as a free side. I ordered the greek salad once but wasn't too into it, there was nothing wrong with the salad it just had certain ingredients I wasn't really into. Whenever I go there seems to always be a place to sit, but I usually order to go. Employees are always nice and the wait time isn't long. The baked goods all look yummy, I just haven't tried any myself. read more

Not a very good Panera location. Not very friendly. Very slow to get my food. The people cooking behind the counter screaming for what they need from the back. Just a bad experience. My yogurt was half empty!!!! read more

Panera Bread - Not a very good Panera location. Staff not as friendly as you usually see. Check out the yogurt i was given. It is like half full. - Sandwiches Near Me - Springfield Township, New Jersey

I would have expected better. Granted the time we have arrived was rather late but that doesn't mean that you have to stop performing at your best. Store seemed to have ran out of the soft drink cups and those they have had on hand were fused together for whatever reason. The Grilled Cheese sandwich looked like it went through something awful, though my son still liked it. Save those it seems like a nice enough store but hardly one of the better ones out there. read more

I've been going to this location for so long. I've grown accustomed to their service and maybe even more accepting then the average consumer. At any rate, I have no complaints about Springfield Panera. I order food and it comes in an acceptable amount of time. The food is always hot and delicious. Lately though, I've only been ordering the French onion soup with a baguette (Amazingly delish). Seating is limited if you arrive during their busy times one of which is lunch (11:00-2:00pm). The employees are professional and courteous and every time I come, it's clean. The desserts taste fresh and my daughter loves the bacon and spinach soufflé and you'd be nuts to pass up their delicious cookies. read more

Panera Bread - Broccoli and cheddar soup simply amazing - Sandwiches Near Me - Springfield Township, New Jersey

I don't usually complain and even after all the times that they have either forgotten to give me my entire order, usually leaving out a few things, or burning all of my food or sloppily mixing ingredients into my food that obviously don't belong (I.e., handful of corn in my broccoli cheddar soup), I find that this picture represents a tiny tiny piece of the whole picture of how the Panera staff handles customers food. At least they didn't burn it this time :) read more

If i could give this no stars i would lmao, ordered a mac and cheese , a small, and they filled the small half way, so just imagine the TWO scoops of mac and cheese i had before it was all gone. 5.35 for a small mac and cheese to not even be filled full. Then my friend ordered a large salad and they separated her salad into two containers instead of putting it into one whole container ?? I don't get it but the experience wasnt all that great, and staff wasnt all that friendly. read more

This was my first time at this Panera and it was a hit. I went to do some work and I was able to have a seat with a wall plug to charge my phone/laptop although, the seats were a little uncomfortable after a while (I was there for four hours just to say). I order the broccoli cheddar soup and it was amazing. They could've gave me a bigger piece of bread, but I'll stick to the bigger picture here! Lol overall the food was amazing, I had a variety of drinks to pick from and it was a successful trip! read more

Panera Bread - Good ole broccoli cheddar soup! Calm settings.. - Sandwiches Near Me - Springfield Township, New Jersey

This location had been a favorite spot for my husband and I. It has gone so far downhill in a year, it blows my mind. No more real silverware; they give out miniature versions of forks and spoons. The tables are always dirty. So are the restrooms. The kiosks are hit or miss. Will they work today? Who knows? Will there be pagers available? Anyone's guess! They are not prepared for business at 6:30 am, even though they open at 6! They fail to order basic supplies, like no cups available for coffee, and no plain cream cheese! Our soups range from lukewarm to warm, never hot and it's sad to see the portion size getting smaller and smaller. Salads are no longer a full bowl. What adds insult to injury is when you write to the company to let them know what's going on at this store, they send you back a form letter that apologizes for not having cream cheese, but misses all of your other points. read more

I gave this place 1 star, not because the food is bad, but because the amount that they put on the sandwiches is minuscule. Our office has been ordering from them for quite a few weeks now and the price does not match what they should be giving you. Case in point: A tuna salad sandwich had maybe 1 tablespoon of tuna on it. Mostly salad greens. This is not the first time this has happened. Need to rethink before ordering from them again. Waste of money! read more

My food was good but the wait time for my to go order was ridiculous! A soup and sandwich should not take almost thirty minutes to be ready. I understand things get backed up but they have got to do better. I've been to other Panera locations and have never waited this long for my food. read more

OK, lest you think I hate all Panera locations, let me now review this one. It's great. We stopped here today after a ride out to the reservoir in Westfield. Service was great, very polite, and they had everything we ordered. Everything was served right away, was fresh, and we didn't have a wait. Why can't the others be like that??? I had the turkey bacon on tomato basil bread, along with their delicious tomato soup. My husband had a ham & cheese, and my daughter had grilled cheese. I asked if they had the NY Style cheesecake cream cheese that West Orange, West Caldwell and Montclair all said they didn't carry, and they did, so I ordered a pumpkin pie bagel with that cream cheese to bring home for later. So yeah, this location gets it right. They win. read more

Three stars for quality control. Five stars for their delicious food, pricing, selections, daily fresh baked goods, and online ordering option. Yesterday I ordered a salad at the restaurant and it was super fresh as can be. Today I ordered the same salad through rapid pick up. The one I had today was the complete opposite of fresh (Lettuce was brown and soggy and the tomatoes were salsa textured) and to top things off, a big eggshell ruined my appetite halfway through my meal. As for service, the worker on the phone was kind in giving me suggestions and didn't mind me asking loads of questions about their food. The cashiers are always patient and helpful. I appreciate kind people. Rapid pick up was super on point with speed. But I just wish that I had gotten good quality food that I'm used to receiving when ordering in. Love their salads, mango smoothies, pastries, and their Asiago breads are to die for. Of course I will be back. read more

Food was delicious, as always, however we noticed it was not the cleanest it could be. We noticed staff hanging out while 1 server was busy running food. Meanwhile, many tables were still dirty and full of crumbs/ left over garbage. read more

It's A-OK. At times I've place mobile orders only to learn they ran out of something. Recently there was a shortage of bagels due to the number of large orders by commercial clients for catering. I applaud the additional business by this location but recommend there be a contingency plan in order to care for the needs of regular patrons. That said its a good place, clean with good prompt service. read more

Still one star. The only thing that has changed is kiosk ordering. I truly do not understand why four employees congregate in the back, completely visible to guests, while one person (in her defense, she was polite and efficient) deals with lines in the front. Mac/cheese was watery, Asian sesame chicken salad had maybe a teaspoon of dressing. They do not make decaf coffee after 2PM??? I would avoid the place but had a meeting there. Who runs the joint, is there no manager! read more

3 stars because I generally like Panera. I was ignored at the counter for 10 minutes. Ordered a chicken teriyaki bowl which consisted of 2 pieces of broccoli, a lot of rice and one hunk of dark meat chicken which was just fat and grizzle. $13.00. Really gross. Barely any teriyaki sauce. While it could have been prepared better, I realize the food is pre-packaged and cooked by the company so perhaps the disgusting chicken is not really this location's fault, however, they did serve it that way. A side note that it appears to be a clean pleasant location. read more

Love Panera Bread... food is always on point, fresh, delicious choices on the menu that fit every season which helps keep things fun. Welcoming place for families, students and solo diners ... no complaints read more

Ordered roast turkey/av, cuban, frontega and steak cheddar for pickup on 1/19/20. If I wanted four tiny bread-only sandwiches, I would have ordered four tiny bread-only sandwiches. $42.39 and honestly was in shock. It would not be possible to put less inside of them - It felt like a contest to see how little this place can put on a sandwich and stay in business. If I had not driven 25 minutes away before opening them, I would have demanded my money back.... it was literally embarrassing to have purchased this crap for my family. read more

I like the food here but I'm giving this location only one star because of the service. Literally every single time I come here or get food to go, my order is incorrect. So I simply told one of the girls that were making the food that she was missing the avocados and she rolled her eyes, put avocado in my salad and tossed my box on the counter. As if it was my mistake to leave out an ingredient. It's not difficult to follow directions from a receipt. But these people want 15 an hour ? Shame on you Panera. Please hire competent people who are friendly and know how to make a simple salad. 9/2016 Just an update.... I went back today since my last review and safe to say nothing has changed. I am convinced that Panera bread can't hire people who know how to follow directions from a receipt... I ordered a simple salad and soup and my salad was missing the avocado, kalamata olives and feta cheese. Mind you, the only other stuff I ordered on my salad was the lettuce, Parmesan crisps, cucumbers and chicken lol. So half of my salad was missing. The manager was there and I told her that this happens every time and she didn't care. What is up with this place? Luckily, there was a very nice guy behind the counter who fixed the other person's mistakes. If only this place cared about their customers. Word of advice, if you get take out, thoroughly inspect your order before leaving. read more

I've been coming here for many years, it was always good. .They must be under new management! The line was huge, the attendant was on her phone. I ordered my food and coffee. .there wasn't "any" coffee available.. it was all brewing (ALL) . She told me to wait 10 minutes... hungry and half an hour later I didn't want to wait any longer so I asked for my money back. Awful service! I feel bad using the kiosks, it's like taking jobs from people. .but, these people are asking for it. read more

I can't believe they served this severely burnt KIDS grilled cheese. After getting home and having to drive back 10 minutes, the manager didn't think anything was wrong with it. Check your food before you leave!! Picture attached read more

It seems like the food quality at Panera Bread has gone down. I used to work at Panera Bread (at one of their very first restaurants) and they used to be BIG on quality, service and freshness. Welp, not anymore. The prices have increased but the quality has gone down. I ordered the "You Pick Two" special. Half tuna fish on honey wheat with Asian sesame chicken salad with extra dressing. First, the cashier was on her cell phone texting. I started off my order by telling her that my food was "to go" and after she took my order she asked me, "Is it for here or to go." I seriously hate repeating myself but I did in this case. Second, I picked up my food and I decided to "eat in" instead. Luckily I did. They didn't give me any napkins and the bread they gave me (I guess it was for the salad) appeared to have been wrestled away from a rat. There was a big chunk missing. How dare they serve another human being something like this? I just pushed the bread aside and decided to let it go and eat my lunch. The sandwich looked sloppy and the portion I was given didn't look like it could fill a toddler. Oh and lo and behold...they didn't give me my extra dressing. And unfortunately I was not surprised. I had to get up a second time to get extra dressing. Panera Bread needs to go back to their original core values..quality, service and freshness. read more

I typically love Panera but dissapointed with my experience today. Yesterday morning I did "rapid pick-up" for two separate orders. I work at a hospital and we were having two separate parties. About 4 meals for one and 7 for the other, which is why I did it in advance. I went today to pick it up. My first bag was ready (the smaller order). I looked it over and everything seemed okay from what I could tell. I mentioned to the guy behind the counter that I had another order I was waiting on (the larger one). He said they had it and it would be out soon. I placed the order for pick up at 11:25, it's now 11:40. I'm standing and waiting, waiting when again, someone else asked me what I'm waiting on. I tell them and offer to give them my print out of my order/confirmation. He says he has it and it'll be soon... So I wait, and wait. Finally I hear someone go "Oh my god, this order is for 11:25. We have to hurry" and now I see them rushing around getting the order together. I was supposed to be back at the hospital with the food by 11:45 and didn't get back until 12:15 because it was clear everyone was just yes'ing me to death. Then I had out all the orders. Almost everyone had something wrong. For instance I asked for a regular greek salad, no chicken and a different dressing - it had loads of chicken, the vinigar dressing and the crutons were terrible/stale. My italian combo had no extra sauce on it or on the side. And as you can imagine most orders were like this. Needless to say I think that's the last time I ever come here. Especially after the other reviews I now see of other people getting messed up orders also. read more

I'm a big Panera fan, go once a week sometimes more. But this location gets the order wrong 50% of the time on pick ups and delivery. So you're already back at work or home and realize something is wrong. This quinoa bowl was $9.60 and was supposed to come with chicken. Look at the bowl. Only half fill and no chicken - see plastic spoon for scale. Shockingly bad value. read more

Panera Bread - Half empty bowl missing chicken $9.60. - Sandwiches Near Me - Springfield Township, New Jersey

I have gone to Panera Bread countless times and it is by far one of my favorite places to go but the service at this Panera Bread is TERRIBLE. besides the fact that they only carve bread bowls 1/4 of the way and I basically only have three scoops of soup the way the manager HIMSELF treated me today was completely UNACCEPTABLE..... I ordered my meal which was nearly $40 but the cashier asked me if I wanted a water cup and without thinking I said yes that's fine. I fill my water cup with a normal drink not water but I didn't think much of it since she asked me for a water cup and then tapped her screen I just thought it was already included in everything. Sometimes I get water cups in other Panera's and it has never been brought to my attention or has anyone said anything to me before so I didn't think much of it yet again. Then the manager, who's last name I did not get but his first name Is Michael comes to my table where I am with my grandmother and cousin and almost as if he's a parent or a cop he just says what's going on here? Why is there not water in your cup? (Intimidating in a way) and I just respond by saying excuse me because I was taken away by the way he was addressing this issue. I apologize and say I'm sorry I will keep it in mind and am nice until this point. He then comes back with three other cups and as my cousin is grabbing his cup to take a sip he literally TAKES THE CUP AWAY FROM HIM. That is when I had enough and stormed off to the cashier register to pay for three actual cups because the way he was disrespecting me and my family was completely DISRESPECTFUL AND UNPROFESSIONAL. He even stormed after me like he wanted to touch me or intimidate me to not make a scene and claimed that he asked nicely for me to pay for them but not ONCE did he say if I could get up and pay for them he just took the cup away. He also kept staring at me after the incident occurred like he wanted to continue intimidating me. A call will be made FOR SURE, and I hope no one goes through this! read more

Ordered via online while I was shopping near by. My email said it would be ready by 12:07. I pulled up at the waited at the curb side pick up location not far from where workers exit to deliver the orders. The guy delivering the orders via curbside pick up was unprofessional and wasn't even wearing a panera shirt he was wearing a political shirt and was not following proper protocol to get the orders out fast to the customers. Now instead of having lunch with my family it ended up being luke warm after waiting more than a half hour. I had to go inside and ask what was going on with my order when it was waiting on the side to be delivered to the car. This used to be my go to panera location because I'm always around the area, but I am not so sure anymore. Lack of acknowledgement and not following proper protocol to deliver customers orders to the car. Instead this guy points to the cars and asks the customers what they ordered and walked past by my car reapeadly. Instead of trying the new pizza kick off with my family I went home with luke warm food. This is the first time experiencing this issue at this panera. read more

Panera is where I go to eat when I am trying to fool myself that I'm eating healthy while chowing down on their broccoli cheddar soup in a breadbowl... I do like their food, and I love their bakery section even more.

make sure you dont leave any of your personal items there. On top of this being the slowest Panera I had left my hat there yesterday called to confirm that it was there was told to come in and pick it up and when I got to the store they said they didn't have it which means either in employee took it home even after I was told to come pick it up. After being there this morning one of the managers said another would call me at 10 am nobody ever called me I had to call back- I just wish that either of the employees or the managers could be a little bit more organized or maybe just honest I would not have driven from Phillipsburg to Springfield for my sons lucky hat if I had known that an employee was just going to take it home. This is really disappointing make sure you don't leave anything there read more
