Mediterranean Chicken Salad - a new menu item, and delicious. And generous - this is a 1/2 size!
Rob H.

I haven't been to a Panera Bread for a while, and I've been a fool to miss out. I love the coffee, the fresh baked goods, the changing menu, and the relaxing ambiance. I stopped in around 4 for a cup of coffee. After considering the guilty pleasures of their baked goods, I spotted a new entry on the menu - Mediterranean Chicken Salad. I'm glad I went for it; it was just what I wanted. I ordered a 1/2 portion, which was very generous (see pic), and full of tender chicken. Ordering was fast and easy, and I wheeled over to the pick-up area. (I'm a paraplegic.). I didn't expect any table service, and was happily waiting when the Panera team member smiled and said she'd be pleased to bring it to me. This embodied the attitude of the staff - pleasant and helpful, making Panera such an easy place to patronize. I thoroughly enjoyed my salad, the Mediterranean spin was a deft and tasty touch, with just the right amount of dressing. I'm lucky I had the time because I spent nearly 2 hours hanging out, grabbing a free drink refill, and reading a book I brought. As I was leaving, I was so glad I had stopped in, and I'll be back soon.

So this is my second time here. So far so good. The place is 100% clean! Food is good as always. Love it.

Well kept dining room.

I have never had a problem with any Panera location. I'm shocked that this location has such a low rating. Most of the reviews seem to be from a long time ago. Maybe they've changed since then. I just started coming to this Summerville location about a year ago now. Never any issues and I've been here numerous times. Today, I decided to roll up to Panera around 3pm. I came inside to see no one was in line in front of me. I thought about what I wanted whilst looking at the menu. The cashier patiently waited on me to make my decision. I made up my mind and told her I want a Strawberry Poppyseed Salad. It said it is in season. Cool. I ordered it with a baguette. This comes with the salad. You have a choice of sides but I love my bread. The baguette is like a piece of French bread. Good. I also ordered a drink and a chocolate croissant for later. The pastry only costs $.99 when you buy an entree. The salad was so good. It had lettuce of course, plus it was covered in strawberries, blueberries, mandarin oranges, pecans, pineapple pieces, and chicken. This is a very fruity and sweet salad. Just how I like it. The pineapples were sliced thin and large, not like the tidbits in a can. I think Panera is a good place to come eat by yourself. It's got coffee shop vibes, with a better selection of food. There were several other people here today eating by themselves. They have lots of small tables. They also have random walls in the middle of the restaurant, blocking your view of everyone there. So you feel like you're in a small, intimate area with just a couple other people. Many people come here and work on their tablet or laptop. Panera offers free wifi to their customers. Overall, I really like Panera. Their food is good and seems healthy. The service is always pretty quick and efficient. I like how you can chill here for an hour or so without anyone trying to kick you out. It's a great place to eat and / or work. It's also a good place to meet up with people over lunch and talk! Try this place out if you haven't already. Or if it's been awhile, try it again!!!

Summer strawberry salad, with mac and cheese - ask for dressing on the side, way too much was used.
Megan T.

It has been awhile since I've been to a Panera. Their quality is just okay and not what it used to be. Of these fast casual restaurant's, I prefer Zoe's Kitchen. Since there isn't one of those on this side of town, we stopped at Panera - I would have preferred Chicken Salad Chick across the street, but they are closed on Sunday's. At any rate, I got the summer strawberry salad. It has overall good flavor, but it was doused in dressing, like swimming in a pool of dressing. Absolutely too much, so I didn't eat much of it. Next time, I would get it on the side. The other thing is that it is on a bed of iceburg lettuce - come on, use a little bit better quality salad. The fruit was at least good. I do enjoy their mac and cheese, but I wish it were served warmer, it's usually not very warm - which is consistent at any Panera location.

Fiji Apple Salad
Mel W.

Well this location is ONLY open for pick up/take out orders. FYI I ordered the Fiji Apple Salad. It was ok, Panera sort of skimped on the grilled chicken and a bit more blue cheese crumbles would have been nice but the little freeze dried apple slices were cute and pretty good, it was low in calorie (280) according the Panera website and the cost was a little over $7.00. Overall it was the half salad and if you have a large appetite or prefer a salad with lots of chicken or protein it might not be for you. The staff seemed pleasant considering the current pandemic. Note- Ask for an extra dressing and extra blue cheese.

Very disappointed, again. Ordered curbside pick up and when my order was supposed to be done, I waited. And waited. I finally went in to inquire and told the cashier my issue and she immediately knew the name on the order and sure enough, she found it sitting on the counter ready to be "delivered". This is the second time this has happened to me at this location. The food was good and fresh but they need to pay closer attention to orders especially when it was not busy at all.

What a find! Visiting Charleston from Michigan and wanted some good southern food. This place…read moredelivered! Started with the bow wow shrimp appetizer. Fried shrimp itossed in hot honey and green onions. Amazing! For the main had to try mee maws meatloaf. What a great taste! The wait staff were on top of things. No waiting for a table, constantly checking on things, refilling drinks and fast service. Food came out quickly and well prepared! This place is a MUST STOP if in the area!

Hmmm. Not sure what to make of this place. I did just move here from New England and I like…read moresouthern food, but something about this place didn't do it for me... My husband and I came in for dinner and sat at the bar. We started with the cheese fritters & bacon jam. We initially thought the bacon jam was missing, but the fritters were great so we just kept eating them! When we got down to the last one, we both realized the "odd looking fritter" in the bowl that we were both avoiding, was the jam (oops!). It was a similar color and shape to the fritters but we both just laughed about avoiding it. For my entree, I was sold on the "award-winning" shrimp & grits that were featured on the Today show (as per their menu). Surprising that this meal made it that far as it didn't taste like anything special to me. It was not bad but very basic/plain; so basic that it felt like something was missing. It was the same case with my husband's meatloaf. However, I would still recommend checking this place out and deciding for yourself if you like it here ;)

I ordered a pickup lunch from Kairos Mediterranean Grill, and the experience was seamless from…read morestart to finish. Ordering ahead on their website was quick and convenient, with easy online payment and the ability to select a pickup time. My food was ready right on schedule--perfect for a busy day when you still want a fresh, high-quality meal. I chose the Morocco bowl, and it absolutely delivered. The ingredients were vibrant, colorful, and clearly fresh. The basmati rice was light and aromatic, providing the perfect foundation for the bowl. The tomato-cucumber salad added a crisp, refreshing contrast, red onions, red peppers, grilled zucchini, kalamata olives, while the feta cheese brought just the right amount of tangy richness. What truly tied everything together was the creamy tzatziki--cool, smooth, and indulgent without feeling heavy. The harissa added a bold, spicy kick that elevated the flavors and kept every bite exciting. Beyond tasting amazing, the bowl was also visually appealing, making it just as satisfying to look at as it was to eat. You get generous portions, excellent quality, and bold Mediterranean flavors at a very fair price. I also ordered the deliciously refreshing cucumber water to balance out the spicy sauce and peppers. If you're looking for a fresh, satisfying lunch with the ease of pickup. I highly recommend.

The location is easy to access, seating is comfortable, and the service was fast, which made it great for a casual family stop. Portions were just right and the flavors were well balanced. The only downside was missing out on the Strawberry Basil Lemonade this time, but that just gives us a reason to come back. Overall, a great quick bite with good food and convenience. We'll definitely revisit!
