I went in this morning to Panera on Pacific Avenue for a breakfast treat. Did an online order, per usual. I received stellar service from a young man named Sal. It prompted me to leave this review here. As a show of gratitude for the courtesy/congeniality he displayed for me. I placed an order and one of the items was out of stock/not available. Had not been baked off yet. I was not glad about it. Kindly, he offered me another baked good selection to swap out for the missing one. He did not have to try much more. I am appreciative of the eagerness to make corrections and commend his earnestness. The little things sometimes mean the most, in the end...especially to me. I don't miss good examples, regarding instances of when Customer Service associates prove to possess above average skill sets. Or when they make unexpected light offerings, that can boost morale/brighten moods. read more

This Panera had a drive-through which was really quick! I do recommend that you order ahead on the app. The large salads are always big and satisfying. I have gotten the apple harvest salad with extra toppings and cheese. Their sandwiches are pretty decent too. I like to get half salad and half sandwich and it will definitely fill you up. read more

Came here because I was craving a Sammy and tomato soup! Service was very friendly at the register and my order was ready quick after being ordered - definitely a nutritious meal. The tomato soup was pretty simple- not the best I've had but fair. I loved having it with the side of bread they provided. The tuna salad sandwich was tasty but a very small portion! I'd definitely have this meal again- pretty simple Sammy and soup. Seating was comfortable when I dined in. Stayed there talking for hours. read more

Asked for a water cup for me and my friend tap water tasted DISGUSTING. Then we purchased cups to see if the soda fountain was better, sodas from the fountain tasted horrible like the nozzles haven't been properly cleaned in a while! The grilled cheese my friend ordered was BURNT. On top of that my friend is also pregnant and the taste of the drinks made her EXTREMELY nauseous which then she wasn't able to finish her food. What a waste. Never come here. read more

LITERALLY my second time getting my order fucked by Panera. Twice already! I ordered their new item and they couldn't even get my SHIT right. FUCK YOU read more

It's a Panera Bread location. It does the job just fine. Nothing special about it. Nothing awful. Great service here with friendly employees who don't rush you if you're taking some time to decide on what to order. No complaints. read more

1/23/25 - I like their hazelnut coffee and their bagels with cream cheese. I got here just in time because it looked like they were running out of coffee and cream. One customer already notified the cashier of the coffee because he was probably on his third cup I could tell. When I picked up the creamer just a little cream came out. I waited about 15 minutes for my bagel to be toasted; they were busy just after 11 a.m. I really wanted to order some French onion soup instead of coffee but I remembered last time I ordered soup it was on the cold side and when I said something to the drive-thru cashier about it he denied that it was on the cold side by telling me " all their soups are hot!!!" At this point in life if I don't know when something is cold, medium or hot I need to go back to kindergarten. Lol!! read more

My sandwich was delicious but the service was great!! Alexis was so friendly and willing to help. She's a gem!!!

The lady I ordered from was very kind and helpful. The way she offered to bring my food to the table when I asked made me enjoy the time we spent at this location. I left a review before at the beginning of January and yelp is asking for another review and combining my pictures it seems for the end of January. I would like to suggest though more kiosk because 2 doesn't seem enough for a busy location. I tried to order from my phone but Wi-Fi was slow so I tried to go to the kiosk that were already taken up. I only waited for a 2 ladies ordering together ahead but didn't have to wait long. Asking for assistance isn't hard, the workers here are friendly. We sat at a table by the fireplace this time, I only wish it was on but then again I guess it didn't matter cause the day seemed hot after. read more

Made a DoorDash order and had called for and extra condiment to be put in the bag and the lady lied to me saying my order was already picked up. I legit just made the order and then called the place. no dasher yet. Maybe she was busy, but I don't care. You signed up to be in a food service job. Don't be shitty because you guys are busy. read more

Service was moderately fast, not slow but not fast. I cant help but feel cheated when an order of mac n cheese for over six dollars was not even filled to or near the top. The price is not worth it im my opinion. The taste of the food was amazing, however. The facility was clean and had a nice, quiet ambience. The enployees forgot to include a bag of chips, but were kind and gave us one when we asked about it. The employees were nice except for one woman who, in a lighthearted tone, cursed loudly upon recieving instructions from a fellow employee or superior. Not very proffessional. The food was great but not worth the price, would not come back due to that factor unless I had a gift card or was attending an event. read more

I usually don't like Panera but my co-workers decided to order lunch from here on Thursday. I must say the sandwich I ordered was pretty good. I got the toasted Italiano which is one of their new items on the menu. It's a French bread sandwich with black forest ham, soppressata, red onions, provolone cheese, sliced pepperoncini, romaine & lettuce blend, greek dressing and garlic aioli. The sandwich was nicely toasted and not soggy. However, I did find that it was on the greasy side though. read more

i went tonight a little while ago and I was very disappointed... I ordered a bowl size soup and it looked like a cup size so freaking small! And then I ordered half size sandwich and it looked like the French baguette they they give you with the small.. I'm sorry but these two things for $25 no freaking way will I ever be going back! I need my refund because of how bad my experience was ! Also to make things more worse this lady with glasses helped me and when I asked her isn't the bread supposed to be in a bag she said no not unless it's multiple pieces of bread it will be bagged and then proceeded to make a gesture with her hands that had gloves on them... It doesn't matter if you have gloves or not the thing is you never know what type of bugs can go into your bag wether if it's sealed or not I do not think this is ok! read more

My first visit here. Sandwiches (tuna) were good. After reading reviews I hope it was clean and I dont get a bug or something. Could have done better with a pickle but I had some on hand. Deals made the purchase cheaper. The meal was ready for pickup shortly after we arrived. I can't complain. I recommend this spot. read more

Is this a real sandwich? Turkey and cheese on wheat. NO tomato, lettuce, or any condiments!!! Horrible Panera is just getting worse. Stay away! You can make a better sandwich at home with REAL Turkey - not processed! Save your $13! read more

Panera Bread - Poor sandwich - Salad Near Me - Stockton, California

The location is somewhat alright but the wait time in the drive thru line is horrible, especially during rush hour. The drive-thru line ends up curving into the parking lot from around the building; it is so bad that people trying to get to their parked cars to leave have to wait an extra 10-20 mins just to be able to leave because of the other cars in the drive thru line blocking them in. Even when customers started to leave the line from the drive thru there was still a lot of people on the inside waiting to place or revive their orders along with a long line of cars in the drive thru waiting to place or pick up their orders. read more

Panera Bread Located on Pacific Ave in Stockton, CA. Here's our Story: It was my weekly Father and Daughter day for lunch. I asked my eldest where she wanted to eat at. She chose Panera Bread. Good choice by the way. As we walked in there is a sign to wear your mask. Unfortunately, my daughter left hers a in the car. But the staff gave her one. Kuddos to them. If you want you can use the drive thru, but the line is always hella long. There's also a kiosk to order if you don't want human contact. We used the register at the front counter. We both picked out the "You Pick 2' You get a half of a sandwich, soup or salad and a an apple or chips. Yer boi ain't getting no apple, so it was chips for me. I was surprised that there was seating available inside. We were planning to eat outside. It was kinda hot and inside worked, because the AC was on point. We kinda sat away from everyone. With the pandemic popping off, trying not to take too many chances. Anywho, you get this little paging device, probably has a name for it. But I'm not doing any research to find out what's it called. Bottom line, when the pager goes off. Your food is ready. The wait time wasn't long at all. Sat down, got our drinks and boom the pager was dancing on the table. I'm not sure if they are giving away trays. Because our food was sealed in a bag, I actually liked that. My Daughter ordered veggie soup, Turkey avocado sandwich and an apple. I got CHIPS, Broccoli and cheese soup and a chipotle chicken sandwich. We both enjoyed our food and our time together. No complaints here. Sincerely VD xoxo "It only takes a moment to make a moment" read more

I'll be super short. This sandwich does not resemble the picture on the wall. The picture showed the yolk oozing. The bacon was hanging outside of the sandwich As if it was hanging on for dear life. Just look at the picture. The egg is over hard. This sandwich is just downright pathetic. I have seen McDonald's sandwiches put together better than this junk. The two stars is for the caffeine free Diet Pepsi. read more

So this store left me with a lot to be desired. As those of you who follow me on yelp or well aware this is not my first review of a Panera Bread bakery. I wanted to order one of their duets for $5.99 as it is a cheap and filling lunch. My favorite duet is the tuna sandwich on forgot the bread with 10 vegetable soup. I had asked the cashier what were the other duet combos and she kept referring to the pick 2. I asked if there was somebody else who could help me because she clearly was not understanding my question so another lady happen to be walking by as I mentioned this. The other lady said I usually work only the drive-through but can I help you what's your question and so I told her I always get the half of a tuna sandwich I forgot the bread and the 10 vegetable soup for $5.99. I asked her what were the other combinations I know that there are other combinations she said oh you're talking about the duet combos and she push a key on the ladies register that was originally helping me and started reading them off you can get a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup you can get as she went on with the other two combinations that both included salads. I wanted soup and tomato soup is not my thing so I went ahead and got my regular half of a tuna sandwich I forgot the bread with my 10 vegetable soup. My sandwich did not have very much tuna on it so I was a little disappointed and it was all over inside of the wrapper on the outside of the bread, unfortunately I was so concerned with trying to put it all together so that I could eat it I forgot to take a picture. However they did give me a nice big piece of a French roll baguette and my 10 vegetable soup with lots of vegetables looked delicious but was served at room temperature. Very disappointing as I was wanting hot soup on a rainy day. Because we have to take all of our food to go, and we're not allowed to do indoor dining here in California right now, I drove with my food about five blocks to where I ate my lunch. Because the distance was so short I'm certain that the soup was served basically cold well I would say lukewarm at best. I do hope that Panera would do a better job at training the cashiers and not just throw them upfront to deal with customers it's not fair to them as cashiers or us as customers. read more

Came in today to pick up my order. And I'm Missing my 3 chips. I should have checked the bag. But I looked at my grilled cheese and it looks super unappetizing. They just threw cheese on a bread and microwaved it... This is ridiculous I'm never coming here again. I have proof in my receipt and pictures of the food. The quality and the food do not match the price point. Never coming again!!!! read more

Ok, the tv commercial got me!! I am weak when it comes to pizza! Stopped in today to try their Margherita Flatbread Pizza. I don't have their app so I placed my order through Yelp. It was easy and I liked that each entree listed a description of the item and calories. Decided on the Pizza and salad meal. I chose the Greek salad. They tell you how long it would take before you arrive for pickup inside (15 min). I paid using Google pay upon checkout. When you walk inside it is waiting on a shelf with your name on the outside. If I had used their app, I did notice they were bringing orders outside to your car. The Greek salad was fresh with romaine lettuce, red onions, cherry tomatoes and kalamata olives with feta cheese. The dressing came on the side. But the highlight of my To Go lunch was the. pizza! The flatbread crust was crispy and yet chewy with parmesan and mozarella cheeses, diced tomatoes and just the right amount of basil leaves on it. Yum! I will return for another type of flatbread next time - the Pepperoni or the 4 Cheese maybe? read more

I always have to check my togo order bag because they have missed a part of my order. I've eaten here 8 times now in the past 2 months. 5/8 times there has been something missing! This is a big deal because I want to trust my order is correct. Those times I left and drove all the way home and had to come all the way back because something is missing: sandwich, dressings, sides such as bread or chips, cookie. The last time I informed them I'm missing a sandwich. One of the staff said are you sure? Yes I'm sure I didn't even leave the restaurant yet. I'm right here it's not in the bag - look! The food is consistent which is good, the staff is nice for the most part but missing items is a no-no. I understand you have to pump these orders out but please double check so we don't have to check again or drive back. Please fix this! read more

I try to avoid chain restaurants as much as possible but on nights that I don't have to cook and I want to try and keep it healthy, I like coming to Panera. The food is fresh, the ingredients are high quality and there's lots of sandwich, salad and soup options. And if you're not trying to keep it healthy-go for the mac and cheese...amazeballs. Tip-if you're an early bird (because they will run out) try their breakfast soufflés. OMG. My only real problem with this location is the drive thru wait...long line of cars or not, I feel like it's extremely slow. But the last time I was there, they gave me a free iced tea for my wait which was nice. read more
