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.

Turkey sandwich

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.

I am always happy in a Panera Bread Cafe. Yes it is pricy but the quality is worth the price. Free WiFi and refills on your drinks.

Portions are small re: salads, lettuce is fairly inexpensive but she why they're so small. Kids meals are pretty filling.

The flavor was so good we immediately wished we had ordered two. We were headed to go bowling afterward, so we kept it light...but trust me, we could have easily finished another. The place is spotless, modern, and has a really comfortable vibe. It is a bit pricey, and if it were just a little cheaper, I'd probably be in there every other day. Still, the quality made our first pho experience a great one.

Appetizers are good and come out quickly. For two people, I'd opt for more than a single appetizer if you are peckish. I had a tofu eggplant dish they said was spicy and it WAS. So believe them when you see the chili pepper on the menu. Service was fine; not lightning quick nor did I feel ignored. Parking is shared with other stores in a private lot so not a concern at all. The soups were quite tasty and the vegetables were all bright and appetizing. I'd go back again happily, but not as a group. If you have more than 4 people, consider an alternative location.

Completely Over-Rated.... Listen the one thing you can expect from my reviews is complete 100%…read moretransparency and honesty. We had a bunch of apps including raw oysters and a smattering 3-4 small plates all were personally I found all to be underwhelming with the exception of one, just disappointing. They made us (Party of 3 with reservations) not want to order main dishes....and we didn't. The dozen raw oysters weren't shucked properly for the $42 price tag. Please make sure you sever the lower abductor Mr Oyster Shucker...I don't need to reschuck your oysters and could have done better with my oyster knife in my kitchen on those raw guys. Only gem for my taste buds was the small plate of short rib gnocchi which unfortunately has nothing to do with any type of seafood. This restaurant has been on my list for a long while and I have heard good things but definitely under-delivered on the food. Charred Octopus which was tender was more of a black eyed pea/bean dish with an octopus garnish, 1 of our anticipated apps was tuna tartare...and was extremely salty, totally over dressed with soy, and how many dishes do you need to garnish with zoodles? Give me a break. Many dishes were entirely too salty and meager with headlining ingredients with the exception of the aforementioned zoodles. If you like zoodles on everything by all means give them a shot. But for me please give the zoodles a rest. They are incredibly annoying to try and eat or fit into a lettuce wrap or on a crispy wonton. The service was very good and is the only thing that saved the meal and made it relatively tolerable. Hate that they had literally 14 people in the entire restaurant but sat everyone on top of one another. It's not a pub it's a restaurant. Thanks for the great service but personally not worth revisiting. I left tremendously disappointed in the food. Sorry just being completely honest here. Wanted to love it but left ...honest review.

The inside is very charming and thoughtfully laid out, and the patio area is perfect when the weather's nice. Great location, great vibes, and everyone is genuinely so friendly. Such a great spot for date night or a relaxed evening out.

From the welcoming vibe at Carnes and being seated quickly to the festive drink menu with the various type of milk and green tea!! Winner why because I am a girl who does not shy away from extra strawberry poppin boba in her tea! Yes please. Of course the beef ramen was great with the crispy onions, fresh veggies and the paired with Shrimp Fried Rice just elevated the dish. But the show stopper and double back two days for me was the chicken karaage. Yes crispy chicken thighs that melt in your mouth paired with spicy mayo and sweet Asian chili sauce....yep that's my go to from now on...chicken karaage and strawberry tea. Can't say anything bad about the location as it is aesthically right at Carnes close to my new Starbucks so double win!

Really suits a Japanese restaurant. I ordered a Tonkatsu ramen, Chicken Kaarage, and Taro Milk Tea w/ Tapioca. They have a variety of ramen and donburi (rice bowl), as well as bento box. It was my first time so I played it safe and went with the ramen. For my appetizer I tried the chicken kaarage. I wish it had more basil flavor. The taro milk tea was decent as well. Overall a good spot if you're looking for ramen and donburis found in Summerville and I believe they have another location in North Charleston.
