I love panera because i actually feel healthy when I eat the food here! ha ha. it's always pretty busy, but it's a nice place with good seating. my favorite thing to get here is the broccoli cheddar bread bowl! yum. the sandwiches are so so, i'm not a big fan of them. but the pastries are super delicious as well ! read more

I've come here many times, food is good, typical Panera. It gets very busy here at lunch due to large company located close.

Yummy! Their Chai tea latte is AMAZING! I mean seriously good. WAY better than Starbucks. A little less sugar and a big portion. I had a panini with tomato and mozzarella and an apple. The sun-dried tomato was super tasty and the panini is very big. Fast service. Friendly cashier. No complaints really. Not a WOW factor, but definitely a yum factor for a food chain! read more

Great little stop for lunch! One word of caution - it's crowded! The line to order moves fast and the staff brings your food out pretty quickly, too. The "pick 2" option works well for me. I've had their vegetarian black bean soup, the classic salad and the tuna sandwich...all in different combos in the Pick 2. They're all very tasty, not overly huge as far as portions, oh, and they give you the option of receiving a piece of french baguette bread or an apple with your lunch. It is a little on the pricey side, but it's more upscale compared to places like Subway or something. Hey, I like Subway, too, this is a nice change of pace for a treat, though. read more

Been here quite a few times. The location is convenient, next to the Prominade mall. The food has been hit and miss. Sometimes its been really good, and twice now, there have been slip-ups. I've gotten luke-warm soup once, and some funky salad one other time. It's been ~15 trips, and both times, the issue was remedied immediately. Can't complain with that. I've never had any issue with the bagels or other bakery items. If you have been to any other Panera bakeries, you know what to expect atmosphere-wise... Starbucks-ish cafe style + booths, and free internet (WOO HOO) The customer service isn't as good as other locations, but every now and then, somebody will come by with some free samples of whatever, and it will cheer me back up. lol. Though, it has been a while since I got my last free sample. Maybe they cut that out as of this posting? Anyways, its the closest Panera to my house, so I will keep going until it gets really bad. Hopefully these small kinks will get worked out and they will be as good as my favorite locations in the San Diego area. read more

The line is always to or out the door, but it moves super fast. I was a HUGE fan of their creamy tomato soup until I actually picked up the calorie guidelines and saw how much it really contained. So instead, I am now a BIG fan or their chicken noodle or chicken orzo. LOL! The service there is ALWAYS very friendly and everything is served in a fresh and timely manner. Yes, I am a definite fan. read more

I go to this Panera pretty often & the staff is very prompt and friendly. Tonight I went in and was helped my a cashier named Melinda who made my night with her genuine kindness. Its the best when a small exchange with someone elevates your whole day even if it's just a little bit! :) thanks Melinda! read more

Mediterranean Salmon Salad is great! Not a 5-star salad because the salmon didn't have that fresh, distinctive, salmon taste which I'm so fond of in a salmon. It actually tasted very plain. The lettuce and the dressing with the feta cheese were top notch as far as combining to give a nice fresh taste. The steak and bleu cheese salad was also good lacked meat. Of course people ordering salads generally aren't bodybuilder unless they happen to be on a carb cut which is precisely what we were doing getting a salad haha. So, with that in mind, the meat was decently portioned, about a 4-6oz salmon filet and about 4 oz thinly sliced steak. read more

Great place to stop with friends and family to get fresh food wide selection on the menu and friendly staff

One of the few good places for breakfast and lunch in town. Gets really crowded during lunchtime, breakfast is a safer bet. Full menu all day. Iced green tea is really refreshing. Do not forget to replace their chips with an apple. read more

Panera Bread - Mac and cheese, tuna sandwich and a fruit cup. - Sandwiches Near Me - Temecula, California

See all

Wow, how much can a restaurant be out of? I guess quite a bit. Came in for one of their Panini's, but couldn't order that as they were "out" of some of the ingredients for it. Then on their Turkey sandwich they were also out of the Cranberry/Walnut bread? This was After ordering as well. Glad we didn't try to order too much because god only knows what more they are out of. read more

Have eaten at this location twice now. We are now convinced both experiences were a waste of time and money. To go into detail is another waste of time. A short summary is their french onion soup tasted like it had been made days before and left on simmer. The Cobb salad was mushy. The wife's steak sandwich was a joke. The meat was over cooked, no garnishes, or mayo. We had to ask for those. As we we're leaving we mentioned our disappointment to a manager who was very nice and apologized and refunded our money. For her courtesy I am giving two stars. In addition to the terrible food, the restaurant was a mess. Most of the tables were full of bowls and glasses. We won't try it again. read more

MY FOOD WAS WRONG !!! I always go here ! This time i order to go .. I ask for salad w NO ONIONS and i got it with onions !!! I paid extra for mozz cheese on a sandwich and got nothing !!!!! And its NOT CHEAP ! Store manager needs to step up alil .... read more

I ordered an you pick two with half a steak sandwich and over half of my sandwich had no meat on it at all. There was onions and cheese sauce, but zero meat. It wasn't because most of the meat was on the other half, because where there was meat it was extremely thin. I have been getting this same sandwich at other Paneras, I know what it is supposed to look like. This wasn't just bad, it was a complete rip off, no other way to describe it. I will never go back to the Haun store again. Who knows what happened to 60% of my meat, maybe the teenager who made it ate half of it, or maybe the manager is trying to cut his food costs. I don't care. This wasn't a mistake, and I feel like I just had 9$ stolen from me. read more

Learned a valuable lesson today.. when you order to go, you get absolutely screwed. I paid extra for a bread bowl and barley got enough soup to fill it up halfway (picture is immediately after pouring the soup in - no time for it to soak). Absolute rip off. Also I paid extra for two fruit cups - only received one. read more

Panera Bread - A sad excuse for chicken noodle soup bread bowl - Sandwiches Near Me - Temecula, California

This is the 2nd time I've ordered a chicken Frontega panini and it was not grilled. It was barely warm at best. And I waited for 10 minutes for my food. They need to hire people who are going to prepare the food how it is expected. read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Temecula, California

Tried to contact Panera bread but couldn't get thru on there website. This PB has the Rudest people working. I didn't get the rude girls name basically bc she wasn't wearing a name tag but why would she since she was an awful Panera bread employee. When you go there BE SURE to check your order. We ordered 3 dinners and 2 of them were missing something from them. You buy a you pick 2 you should get 2 items...we got 1. Both missing the soup. Never left the parking place and the stupid girl said we took it out of the bag. Really? Both items had checks by them and both items were not in the bag. Then when I Wes ready to blow a fuse she said, "well we are out of broccoli cheddar". Then I said so you knew you were out of it? And you delivered it to us in the car without the soup. So you didnt say a thing and we paid for it. I said so you are stealing from the customers. She didnt care at all. She then said we could have another soup. Terrible CS. Then she went in got 2 soups and said hers ur soup. Walked away into the door and turned around-laughed and YELLED "have a good nite and laughed". Never again will we go there again. We were there to support a local business...NO MORE it can go down. Good luck Panera...you're people SUCK! Tues May 11th 7:25 pm pick up time read more

The food was delicious and the service was great! Jonah, who prepared and gave us our food was so kind and made sure we were satisfied with our meal. Such a kind and hardworking man! Great customer service and great food read more

Inconsistency is the best single word to describe this venue. The food is a good value, it can be tasty and it's always fast. Why can't the people be trained to fill orders consistently? I shouldn't have to check the bag before I leave the restaurant to make sure our orders are right, but I always do and there's usually something missing. It is annoying and if there was another quick service provider nearby they would get our business. Tonight wasn't any different. They forgot the cinnamon roll we paid for - I noticed that in the store - and the baguettes for our soup, that I didn't notice until I got home. It's really pathetic. read more

Horrible experience. The most pathetic turkey cranberry flatbread sandwich EVER. ONE slice of turkey 1/2 tsp cranberry sauce and 20 spinach. Unbelievable. And the dining room was deplorable. Not ONE clean table. We had to clean our own to sit down. And this was at 8 pm at night. Really? Sickening. I edited this to add that when I showed the manager my sandwich he apologized profusely and refunded me the full price of a flatbread sandwich even those I had purchased it as part of a "pick 2", which was more than fair. He also explained that they were very short-handed, which explained the messy dining room. I felt sorry for him, he was quite young, but his employees were not at all concerned about stepping up and getting the lead out to help out. They were standing around talking and laughing, seemingly unaware of the pig sty around them. read more

This place is okay. Same as any other Panera if you have been to one for the flavors. I personally like to purchase their bagel deal where you get two tubs of cream cheese with the bagels. Sandwiches are pretty spot on with what to expect from them. The chocolate chip cookie has always been a favorite of mine here. Unfortunately every time I have been to this location I have been disappointed with their customer service. It bothers me as well with the fact that when I come in they're not that busy and the servers I have had came off as rude. I was amazed that some of them don't know the bagel deal either although it's clearly stated on their menu that you get two tubs of cream cheese. read more

The staff at this location are PHENOMENAL. Every time we have gone they are not only kind and efficient they offer suggestions to make your meal and experience even better. Today was no different, and was indeed above the norm- didn't know it was possible. I was bussing my own table- because I can easily imagine the amount of clean up they do daily- when a team member (likely a manager- which speaks volumes about their leadership culture!) told me I didn't have to do that and she would take care of it. I told her I didn't mind and mentioned I had five kids, so it's a habit to clean up. On my way she gave me some treats to give to my children. I have to say it made my day and I hope her kindness is returned 5 fold! We shall be back! read more

let me just say that my husband and I love Panera. everything always taste so good and ingredients are fresh. we just visited the Panera in Temecula and ordered our fav the turkey and avocado BLT. I ordered rapid pick up. we were just driving through so got in the car and left and discovered that there were no napkins in our bag, no side pickle, but most important was that one of the sandwiches was a plain BLT! of course it was delicious but really missed the turkey and avocado in the one sandwich. so I give them 3 stars for messing that up! read more

Panera never dissapoints, so this location is on par with every Panera I've been to. They are busier than I am used to, but my Rapid Pick-up order was ready when I pulled in 5 minutes after ordering. I will be back! read more

LOVE this Panera Bread! I moved to LA in August, but whenever I visit home, me and my gal pal always make a lunch date here. Service is super friendly, quality is great, prices are decent (but for quality food, you can't complain) My next trip to Temecula will definitely involve the mozzarella and tomato panini! read more

Me and my husband went Thursday night and had their pick 2 meal which I love the brocolli cheddar soup and Thai salad. The food was great but the soup is child's temp. I like my soup hot specially in a cold night. So I was disappointed by that. 2nd thing, we had a hard time looking for a clean table. It's filty. Make u wander how they make their food cause its dirty everywhere. Most of the seats need to be change. They are ripped and dirty. I wish the manager would put extra effort to make sure their place is clean and neat. They need to assign someone to maintain their dining is clean. The trash is not full, condiments and coffee area is clean as well as their bathrooms. I love their pastries and the express order yourself. Its very convenient during busy hours. This is the only Panera branch that every time I decided to eat here, that every table and chairs are filthy. It's embarrassing and make u not want to come there and you can tell the manager and the emplyees are lazy and doesn't care. Otherwise they would have seen it and maintain it clean. I would not recommend this place unless they do something about it. read more

Needed to get 3 boxes of pastries today, for some accounts. Went to Panera in Temecula and had the pleasure of meeting the manager, Katie Spillman! She rocks! She took care of me, I just asked for the pastries but she gave me the plates, utensils, napkins and everything. I will definitely be back just to see Katie!! Thank you for your professionalism and beautiful smile! read more

Wow! I went in today with my mom to get some sourdough bread (my dad's favorite), and a young man named Nathan helped us. He was so kind and helpful, and right now during these difficult times it is so refreshing to experience excellent customer service. Thank you Nathan! We will be back soon, and your company is so blessed to have you :) read more

Amazing service! This place exceeds all my expectations in terms of quality service. It seems every employee is more than ready to serve you with a smile on their face and even when they mess up they apologize and give you a free pastry. I've never been anywhere with kinder employees, Lauren and Johnathan especially always manage to put a smile of my face. AMAZING service EVERY time read more

I have enjoyed the food at Panera bread, but the prices are really high for basically a bunch of bread. I just ate my pic to salad, and in the Fuji apple chicken salad there was... Count them... One, yes one apple slice. Stunning. Must be a big moneymaker for them, but they won't get more of mine. read more

Panera on Nicole Lane was a disappointment, usually they are all the same and you know what you get, I had the turkey chili which had way too many chick peas, I actually had to spoon them out of the chili so I didn't feel like I was eating chick pea chili, they didn't have a dark roast coffee and I asked a server and he said No they don't have it? I usually have no trouble getting dark or med roast, they only had light roast. I ordered a hot green tea also, got the cup to fill with water and get a tea bag, no green tea, they had 3 out of 6 tea bag bins. When i asked the lady she was polite and said that is all they have, so i recorded a cold green tea. The bread roll was so so, when usually I devour it, I left some on the plate with the chick peas. My light roast coffee isn't appealing either, usually I take their coffee pretty fast and delicious considering it was my first coffee for the day. The server was polite and friendly and 5 star. I won't be coming back to this panera as there are so many others in the area to try out. Sorry cafe number 601255 Niles lane , temecula, ca 3:15 pm read more

Not a huge yelper...but felt the need to go out of my way for our amazing cashier Max. The place was crazy on a Sunday mid-morning and they were under staffed, lined with the worst customers I think I've ever encountered (I've worked customer service for years) BUT! Max was the most patient bright smile with a positive attitude in the entire restaurant! Thank you Max! read more

Not bad if you're in a crowd of "ladies who lunch" but if you're looking for a hearty meal then look elsewhere. The food is good and the service is good, however, its just not enough for someone looking to have a filling meal. Small portions and an expensive menu will keep me only coming here when the girls want soup and sandwich. read more

I love this place I use to go every weekend they have the best stuff Too bad they do not have one where am at. read more

Very inconsistent with their food portions. I used to get full salads that are what they are supposed to be, but lately they are very little and almost look like half salads that you get with the pick two, but I am paying for a full salad. Also the ingredients in these salads change a lot too, very odd. Another thing is when I get cafe mocha's now, I always ask for a large and am charged the extra for a 20oz cup, but the last few times I have gotten one, it is two inches filled below the rim of the lid. Ridiculous! I wish I could attach photos of what I experience at this place. read more

Panera Bread - This is most def NOT what I ordered. Also having them remake my drink once, you'd think they'd know how to make it. NOPE. Sad. - Sandwiches Near Me - Temecula, California

I love Panera. I get a sierra turkey and broccoli cheddar soup every time. I'm always happy with the customer service and the expo always ensures my order is correct. read more

First time trying Panera on Nicole Road. I ordered a sun-dried tomato and mozzarella sandwich and broccoli and cheddar bowl. I had to throw the sandwich away because it was the worst looking thing I've ever seen. It didn't even look like a sandwich it looked like it was just molded together, thrown together. Also the soup had a funny taste to it like fish, not good for broccoli cheddar. I will not be going back. read more

After hearing good thing about Panera we ordered on Monday for the first time. We asked about free delivery we were told that we were in their delivery services area. They asked us if we had any coupons which we did not have, so we picked up the order and they gave us some coupons to use in the future orders. We order again and we were told that we could not use our 50% discount because we were not in their service area. Each time we get a different spin on the discount and free delivery policy. We do not have time to deal with this business read more

The service here is phenomenal. Honestly, it's been a while since I've experienced such amazing customer service. To opening doors, being treated like family, and served with sincere politeness. This place needs to be recognized for their amazing staff. The food was great as well! I will definitely be a frequent flyer here! read more
