Great job the team is so sweet and nice after I made the mistake on the app of ordering from the wrong Panera Bread they rushed to make the order quickly. Thank you to a happy smiling team. You are all so helpful! read more

I ordered my food online, rapid pickup. I was told it would be ready at 1:18. It's now 1:38 and my order is still not ready. Very disappointed! read more

What we like: Service was great, price was reasonable, the hot chocolate drink was outstanding, and the blueberry muffin was amazing. What we did not like: Coffee - just not good enough compared to other coffee brand at the same price range. read more

Quite possibly the worst experience I've had at a Panera and I've been to many in South & Northern California. Technically I went out of my way to go to this one, as I'm currently stuck in the even shittier town south (Fairfield) and most stores in this town are a bit nicer. Not the case here. I spent a good 8 mos where I ate 2-3 meals a day at work and @ home (Huntington Beach CA & Costa Mesa CA) so I've been a good customer. And you guys are usually close to flawless in making sure the details are right. Everything about this experience was wrong. I placed an order online so I would have food after work and for the next cpl of intense days @work and cookie smiles for co-workers. Cookies boost morale. Placed this order w/the app as I had so many times before. Baby boomers may not understand but I do this for many reasons and no I don't want to take your call about this order to confirm what is already confirmed. Typically means I wouldn't have to call-in or worry if they heard me or received my order. Guess this manager doesn't understand this concept nor the fact that these internet orders are just as valid and important as walk-ins. Listen, ma'am. If my credit card is charged to your store the nearly $50 on this date and time, I bought those cookies. Walk in and not only is my order admittedly several hours past 1530 but didn't expect anything to be still warm. It was a good 30 before closing as well so they wouldn't be scrambling to make my drink, which typically they'll re-make it for me if I'm late but they actually completely forgot my drink now that I think of it. So no food ready, there is no one who seems like they've heard of me nor this larger order. Umm... manager comes out and says "We didn't know if it was valid bc we *called* you twice and couldn't get thru." Duude. I didn't have the time to deal w this when there are pilots and aircraft and crew and passengers relying on me. Yes, some ppl are actually too engaged and care about their work nor get breaks long and casual enough to tweet throughout the day. I barely have time to pee some days and that's okay because I love what I do. Was supposed to be able to send someone to pickup around 1530/1600 and figured, hey worst case scenario the drink is cold and Mac & cheese no longer warm. We have a microwave at our disposal. Not only did they not make any of the major items in the order, the manager says to me "I don't have any of these cookies left. I sold them all b/c I didnt know if you were coming in." Lady, as I said. I bought those cookies! If I had opted to let you assemble that order only to have it sit there til close and not have me show, I paid for you to let it go to waste. You can't sell something I already bought. I couldn't believe her either. The attitude was of arrogance and total disregard. "So I'm just going to throw in whatever I have left to sub for these pastries." I wasn't okay with this. Typically I am very accommodating. I don't like to complain and I will always endorse wherein deserved. I can't believe this attitude she has and will never go to her store again. I don't blame her employees, it was her. I am hesitant to go back to any Panera after this experience and you guys have kept this picky vegetarian sustained throughout some very long days and nights, all over California and for years. read more

On the right is a Panera Cinnamon Roll I had in Valencia, CA & on the left is a Panera Cinnamon Roll I had in Vacaville. It was absolutely DISGUSTING. Burnt. Flavorless. Tasted like cardboard. I couldn't even finish it. Went & got it on my short break at work & THAT is what I got. Left unable to eat breakfast since I wasted my time getting that. What a drastic difference in those photos. The Valencia location showed what a Panera cinnamon roll is SUPPOSED to look like. read more

I go to Panera twice a week for the coffee. Currently, they have a bargain for coffee that can't be beat. The coffee isn't amazing, but its good. The food is decent. However, they are frequently out of items. Their app, or at least their management of the app, is horrible. One day I found myself with no cash or credit card. I did, however, have a credit card attached to their app. I saw 20+ soufflés ready for purchase in the display. I tried to order one thru the app, but the app said they were out of them. I showed that to the clerk. She said that they were "concerned" that someone might order food on the app and it not be available in the store. What?! What about someone inside your store who cannot order the food right in front of him?! Unfortunately, I had to leave the store hungry. read more

Listen. Lemme tell you something. I have been coming to this establishment for about seven years. When I tell you I wish, I wish I could take this Panera location and bring it with me everywhere. I am one of those customers who is extremely, extremely, ridiculously, annoyingly, picky. However, I will send in my special instructions for my order and they execute it to perfection. They even ask me, if it tastes good/tight. I think they put magic in those sandwiches because they are always consistently done well. And as we all know associates come and go so the Regional Director, Manager, and the ENTIRE staff are doing one helluva job! Do they have problems at times of course, do they make mistakes on orders of course. But ain't nobody gonna die if they forgot to put mustard on your sandwich (one type of the annoying complaints that I had to unlearn‍)! Anyhoo...here's a screenshot of my picky order and the sandwich received, well what's left of it. read more

Really bad customer service I placed an order and proceeded to pay with a 50$ bill ( that's the only bill I had on me) And they refused to sell me my phone claiming they don't accept anything above 20$ because of change reasons.. So I asked what I buy food for 40$ would you be able to give me 10$ change and accept my payment, she said no and was very inconsiderate. I left the place hungry and will never come again... read more

I really appreciated how the manager, Gary, just immediately showed up with crayons and stuff for my daughters to color. He also took our buzzer (and everyone else's around us) and just delivered dinner to our table. It's nice to see. He obviously cares about his customers' experience. read more

I ordered online last week for my husband to pick up. Order consisted of: Chicken noodle soup -for sick kid. Cesar salad. Macaroni and cheese with bacon 2 cinnamon crunch bagels. So we didn't get the bagels, so the accuracy rate is a solid 60%. Then I call, no answer. Then I use their online customer service. They graciously offered me a $10 gift card. Not so gracious when you figure I paid 5.58 (not including tax), for the bagels I didn't get, and had to send husband back out to the supermarket to get bagels. That was about $4.00. Thanks for the .42 cents Panera. read more

The baguette and butter were delicious. The 10 veggie soup was salty with very few veggies and grains, truly disappointing. The black tea tasted like peaches. My friend's salad looked like a better option. read more

I usually go into Panera in the morning at least once a week, and there is always a beautiful young cashier who is very helpful and sweet.

Friendly and fast. We stopped on our way out of town to babysit our grandson in the Bay Area. I ordered a half Steak Sandwich with everything and my wife ordered s Chicken Salad. When I opened the sandwich box I was sorely disappointed. I found scraps of beef, a small pink slice of something and a tiny spot of horseradish. The flavor was good but I've had more meat on an hors d'oeuvre. It was just a waste of money and with all of the competition in Vacaville, I'd strongly suggest going somewhere else. My wife's salad was good but again more the size of a dinner side salad, very small. We've lived in Vacaville for over 30 years and we won't be back. read more

First time ever at Panera. I ordered a a roasted turkey and avocado BLT, waited about 20 mins. When I got the sandwich it was on the smaller side, overflowing with mayonnaise and very little turkey... it looked like somebody put not much effort into making this sandwich. After I wiped off some of the mayonnaise I took a bite and the bread immediately fell apart and had no flavor. for the $13, I felt ripped off and probably won't be back for that price. read more

One of the things with Panera Bread is that even for having the same menu, the stores are pretty hit-and-miss. One nice thing was that the order-taker was fast and friendly - my order didn't take too long and was accurate when it came out. The folks delivering food were okay - not too friendly, but they were busy at the time. The things that disappointed me about this location was the cleanliness and location. This store was pretty unclean - so much so that it was difficult to find a clean table. Also, there were flies all over - while I understand you're going to have them in some restaurants, it did not look like an effort was put in to trap them. Also, floors were sticky. The location itself is a pain to get in and out of - it's at the old Nut Tree, which is a pain in and of itself. I'll probably be coming back to this store, as I have family members that love Panera, however, it's not a personal favorite. read more

Great place to eat, relax and recharge. This is a stop for us when traveling from Northern California to and from the Bay Area. The food is as good as all the other Panera Bread but this visit, I want to highlight one of their workers. I wish I got his name but I wasn't able to. We ordered the Fuji apple salad and the persons preparing got our order wrong. The worker went out of his way to ensure we were taken cared of by ensuring the salads were changed to the appropriate order. I realize that as a worker or manager he did what he was supposed to do but there was just something very friendly about him that we really appreciated. The 4 stars above is for this worker who in my opinion represented Panera Bread with excellence. read more

ive eaten here before, and it was delicious. everything is usually really good. however, i guess there has been some slack a$$ employees. i paid 10$ for half a sandwich, and it looks disgusting. i have had this sandwich before and it was delicious, looked really good too. this is NOT doordash fault, its paneras. like do people not have integrity in their work anymore? i got the caprese sandwich. look at this picture and tell me you would want to digest that in your body. it just looks so slack. i think this panera is good at making good food, but today it was off. the sandwich had these weak ahh lettuce, nasty tomatoes, it did have the mozzarella, definitely had no balsamic, and looked disgusting and dry. i have had this sandwich before so i know how its supposed to look and taste. the sandwich was disgusting. if they are out of the ingredients to make the sandwich okay understandable, you could contact the doordasher to let me know if i could do a substitute or something. i attached the picture. im just disappointed. i hate to be a karen but i took a bite to see if it just looked horrible but tasted good, and now i wanna throw up. i would expect this from subway not panera. read more

Panera Bread - Toasted Garden Caprese - Sandwiches Near Me - Vacaville, California

Not a Panera fan because I find it to be pricey for what you get but went with some friends who chose this place. This location is super busy and super small. We had to wait for some people to get up to find a table. I ordered the Thai won ton soup and god it was AWFUL. You'd think for almost $10 that you would get more than 5 won-tons that had a lot of ginger in them. Ginger makes me seriously gag so I couldn't eat it. I asked for a swap with the tomato soup and they did. Was afraid it wouldn't be enough so I also ordered a half a sandwich and it was good. But overall for my $15 , I left feeling hungry and unsatisfied. I am sure their breads and pastries are good but I have changed to a low carb. eating that it can't be a destination. Not really bad, just not my kind of place. read more

It's been almost 2 months since Panera's cream cheese recall due to listeria concerns, and they're still not serving ANY of their Panera-brand cream cheese. They have some generic stuff, but it's not as good and if you order via the app or the kiosks, no cream cheese is available at all. When bagels are one of your staples, this seems like something you'd want to remedy. So here I am, waiting for refrigerated butter to melt onto my cold "toasted" bagel. Noah's Bagels opens down the street in two weeks, so it's unlikely I'll ever come back to this Panera again. read more

Really disappointed with the food here. I did the take 2 but they charged us full price for both items ($20 total). When we received them, they were toddler sized. I also ordered the non-refillable frozen lemonade that was only 3/4 full and comes in a small cup. I was expecting something fuller based on the pictures they have. Their advertising sure fooled me. I won't be returning. read more

I went in for a breakfast sandwich on 2/28/2019 for the first time to try it. So for around seven dollars with water I received a 1/2 sandwich with a sunny side up egg. They did not ask me how I wanted the egg. As the egg yolk ran all down my fingers with my first bite I realized that I was not impressed with the overall flavor of the sandwich which I felt was "bland". The bread was chewy and seemed healthy. After eating I needed to visit the Men's room to wash the egg yolk off my hands. There was a tangled heap of paper towels on the floor as high as the counter being deposited from the malfunctioning dispenser. Will I go back? mmmmm not in a big hurry. They did talk me into getting one of their "member cards" for perks. read more

There are bugs crawling all over the pastries and cookies. I went to buy a 2nd cookie and noticed them crawling and flying over many of them sugary treats. I am just happy they pulled my cookies out of the drawer both times. This makes me wonder what there kitchen is like. I would have walked out if this was before we finished eating. read more

Was charged for a chocolate chip bagel only to find them out for the morning. Disappointed but decided to give the chocolate muffie a chance.

I went to Panera Bread in the Nut Tree Village for a business meeting. Customers order and pay at the counter, take a number and choose a seat. A server will bring your order promptly to your table. The service is extremely quick, and food was okay. I got the 2 item lunch combo with half a sandwich and a cup of Tomato soup. My soup was a little bit cold, and the half sandwich was kinda small compared to my other Panera Bread experiences.. I wasn't very impressed with the bread considering "Bread" is in the company name. The best thing about this place is the casual, comfortable seating, easy parking, quick service and free WiFi. This place makes an ideal place to have a casual business lunch or study spot for students. I don't think I would come here otherwise as the food is mediocre (typical chain soup, salad, and sandwich joint) and the prices are slightly more than I'd prefer to pay for the quality (lunches are around $10). read more

When I was first introduced to this place I thought their food was BOMB . But who hasn't experienced their first sandwich in a nice, relaxing setting? Well, that phase of over indulging at this place will leave you broke, as well as the impression that you care about eating healthy while you stab at your half sandwich/ half salad plat that cost $10. You know, they opened a Subway in that shopping center? Note-To-You: Five dollar foot long!! I have a quaint feeling that some of their customers go here for the experience rather then the food. Everything is pre made and expensive. If you plan on eating there go in the morning, at least the raw materials are a little bit fresher then at night. read more

Currently in the store. I did an online order and it says it will be ready at 11:45am. It's already noon and I'm still waiting for it.

The bread here is great and most of the food items are tasty as well. The real drawback to this location is that there is almost always a wait. I highly recommend the Cinnamon Crunch Bagel and the Bakers Dozen Pack (13 bagels 2 spreads) is a great value! read more

I requested a vegetarian Mediterranean veggie sandwich, and there was meat on it. No thank you

ordered from here yesterday because i had a free birthday dessert but also saw an ad for the pepperoni melt sandwich and it looked good. haven't gone to panera in a while so i thought i'd give it a try. i ordered around 2:20pm for pickup at 5:25pm for my dinner. i was excited after i picked my order up and seeing how big the sandwich was but when i got home i was very disappointed because they made me the wrong sandwich. i dont know what kind of sandwich it was. i gave it to my mom and sister because i don't like tomatoes and after having one bite they threw it away because it smelled and tasted spoiled. how do you have over 3 hours to make an order and still screw it up?? it was not busy when i went inside the restaurant so there should be no excuse as to why they made this mistake. now i remember why i dont go to panera. read more

I must say this place has amazing customer service. I placed an order for delivery but was missing a sandwich when it arrived. I called and spoke with a gentleman named Zach. He looked up the order had the sandwich re made and personally delivered it within minutes. To top it off he even brought us some pastries for the inconvenience . Thank you Zach! You went above and beyond our expectations! read more
