    Panera Bread lunch
    Michael F.

    Panera Bread in Vernon Hills, Illinois 60061 offers delicious meals at reasonable prices in a clean establishment with friendly service! When you're hungry, dine in or pick up some fresh food to go! Don't forget to take advantage of free refills on their excellent coffee. 447 N Milwaukee Ave Suite 100, Vernon Hills, IL 60061 is their address.

    I'm baffled at the level of carelessness towards maintaining of clean tables! Very unclean and disgusting!

    Slimy Romaine Lettuce from my Green Goddess Salad.

    So gross! I ordered a half Green Goddess Salad (which I normally LOVE), but this location served me wilted, slimy, Roman lettuce. I went through the drive-thru on my way home, so there was no way to return it. So disappointing.

    Restaurant review So expensive, I have not been back to panera for a long time but this is ridiculous when you drop 20+ dollars for lunch. The food is fresh and well made. I had the strawberry fruit salad which was done well with a baguette side. I can't say that the meal is worth the money you pay. Pro: fresh food Cons: so expensive Hidden gem: Panera card which helps you earn free food after purchase. I earned a free smoothie after this lunch. When you sign up you get a free pastry item

    This location is a step above many of the other PBs in the neighboring suburbs. Typically PBs are a bit junky and not very tidy. To date, this newer VH location is very clean, comfortable and has great customer service. With the relocation and new design, there also seems to be a fresher attitude, as it pertains to how the staff interacts with the customer. These are definitely positive attributes, as the old PB location was definitely one to avoid, mainly due to such a poor customer experience on every level. Ordering can be expedited if you prefer (online or via phone) and if dining in, it couldn't be any simpler. Place your order, receive a pager, choose a seat, and the food is brought to your table. The enhancements to service are quite positive and simply creates a very pleasant and comfortable dining experience. Keep up the great work VH PB!

    See all

    The usual Panera experience. I was craving their chicken salad sandwich and they made it perfectly. Delicious!

    Oh, who could not love Panera? The selections are great and the "deserts" leave you wanting more.

    This review is for my visit. I had good, flavorful food. I went here for lunch. The restaurant was…read moremoderately busy. I went with 'build your own bowl' concoction. I ordered a bowl with super greens and grains, half steak & half spicy lamb meatballs, and assorted toppings of my choice. What the menu does not clearly state is that certain proteins cost extra and how much for that matter even for half & half split. I also got a fountain beverage. They had q nice variety of fountain drinks to choose from. The service was quick and good. My build your own bowl concoction was perfect in taste. I managed to get the appropriate mix of toppings whose flavors mixed in well with the base and proteins. The portion size of the bowl was good as well. Their Tangerine Aleppo fountain drink was really good. Except of being a bit over priced, I liked everything about this place. I will go back for more though as I liked the food quite a bit.

    I'm a big fan of Mediterranean flavors, so CAVA is right up my alley. The portion sizes are on the…read moresmaller side for the price point, but the ingredients are usually very fresh, and the bowls are delicious. I usually customize my own bowl so I can add in all of the sides! I justify the price by saying that it would take me forever to make all of those sides at home... Also the drinks are actually pretty good- not your standard drinks at fast casual restaurants. The last time I went there was a pineapple mint drink that was really refreshing. I've gone on Sundays both times, and it was packed! They seem to be slammed in the back, and getting a table is a free for all. The line can be slow to get through, and they always seem to have a million take out orders to fill. Still, compared to other Mediterranean fast casual restaurants, CAVA is near the top of my list!
