Food was yummy and employees are friendly. I had an apple salad and steak sandwich and it never disappoints. Sometimes I get the tomato or broccoli soup and those are really good too. read more

First of all, know that it truly pains me to write a negative review about a particular business but it feels like I am encouraging bad behavior and bad customer service if I won't divulged how such business operates based on my experience-- and that, to my judgment, is doing the consumers (the public) some kind of injustice by hiding from them of their right "to know" of which businesses to avoid in order to get their money's worth. So last Monday my daughter and I decided to go to this business to have our breakfast before I brought her to school. My daughter was in her regular school clothes while I, since it's my day off, was wearing only a plain white shirt, jeans and my adidas sandals. We were craving for the breakfast sandwiches but unfortunately the lady at the cashier, looking already frustrated and exasperated, told us in a rather monotonous and nonchalant tone: "Uhm...we don't have sandwiches today. We don't have eggs. Actually, we are quite low on a bunch of our supplies so most of the things on the menu are not available." So we moved to the side so the other customers behind us could make their orders while we decided what else we could get that's available. When we're done, we ordered a cookie, a cold drink, a jalapeño bagel and a coffee. Now it's time to pay. I handed the cashier a $100 bill. She stared at my daughter, then at me, then her eyes went up and down looking at us from head to feet and said: "You can pay with your card or with smaller bills." Politely we said that that's all the money we got. Then she gave us once again that scrutinizing look from head to feet and blurted: "I need to call the manager. I need the pen to check this." A long line was already growing behind us. Her actuation was totally insulting and humiliating since her stares and tone of voice not only made us feel very small--that we are being considered "suspicious" because we were not dressed impressively--but it's breaking our hearts too to realize that we are at that very moment being discriminated blatantly!!! Prior to us, a nicely dressed lady came and bought some bagels and cream cheese. Interestingly, she also paid with a $100 bill and the transaction went through without a glitch--without the manager ever needed or sought to provide a pen to check if the money were authentic or not. But when it's our turn, why is it different? So, I told the cashier: "You know that money is brand new. See that blue seal? That proves it's real." With an irked tone, she replied: "It doesn't matter, I still have to check it because it's a policy." To which I replied: "if that's so, how come you did not check the lady's money before us?" She left me while I was still speaking and called her manager named Ryan who looked for "the pen" but, minutes later, returned empty handed and opted to give us the change without checking our bill simply because he could already hear the customers grunting as to why they were giving us a hard time. Now, tell me, is this a kind of place worth your precious time and hard earned money where certain staff are unabashed to disrespect and discriminate "paying" customers? Your call. Honestly, this doesn't even deserve any star in my opinion. read more

I've been to location a couple of times. I don't believe it has a microwave for customers like the Brea one does. I order the buffalo chicken toasted French baguette and chocolate chip muffie. The baguette left a lot to be desired for the price it was like just eating bread. Staff was kind went during busy lunch hour and it was pretty busy but took about 15 minutes to get my order which was ok. Interior was clean. read more

Panera Bread - Chocolate chip muffie - Sandwiches Near Me - Walnut, California

$19 for half a bowl of mac and cheese and a bread sandwich missing all the meat. Pick 2 is a rip, but even more so is tipping hoping to get a decent amount of meat. Not the case, I kid you not... two nickel size meat slices in my beef sandwich rest was all bread and mayo. Not the only location to do this... hope they remodel or fold. read more

This location needs more employees to take orders, clean tables and keep this restaurant clean and tidy. There are always dirty dishes on tables and food. The food is okay but probably better if you do take out. read more

I have been ordering their $5.99 Chicken Bacon Rancher sandwich quite a bit this past month, and have been very satisfied with the size and quality at that price range. I can customize it a lot, and the App ordering makes it easy to order and have it ready to pick up when I arrive. Add a drink from their Sipp Club, and we have a Greatest Value in town at the moment. read more

Service was good but, my poor chicken noodle soup was mainly broth and I'm pretty sure I got a cup when I ordered a bowl. I could be wrong but if not, that little thing was expensive!! read more

This place has become a dump. This use to be a great location...sadly it's become a run down dirty location. Nothing is stocked, despite people asking over and over for things to be refilled. They took 40mins to toast a bagel. The utensil area is grimy and disgusting. Clearly the service is awful, if you have to ask for the manager and still can't get good service. Don't waste your time. read more

My partner had a gift card to here. I have never been here until today. Not sure why the reviews are low but I loved it here! It was a great first experience. Ordering was easy. There were tons of seating. They have a back outside area for pets which I loved. My sandwich was delicious! The chili soup was also good! We even happen to get free drinks because a dasher had forgotten to grab them so that was awesome! I will be coming here again! read more

Panera bread is a safe option if you are looking for something quick. I ordered the Avocado Spinach sandwich which was good and fresh. I also order a blueberry muffin which was a little hard. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The ambiance is a fast food chain and is like any other restaurant with lots of tables. Would not recommend if you trying to host an event at the location. If you're looking for something safe this is a good option. They have catering options too! read more

I always order ahead on the app so my food is ready when I get there. The bagels are made fresh daily and there's even a deal on Tuesdays... a bakers dozen is 1/2 off!!! The other pastries are good. I have yet to try anything other than their breakfast items. I gave 4 stars because sometimes they are out of certain food items when ordering ahead on the app. read more

It was a hit and miss. The service is good because I encountered a couple of sweet checkers here, but for the food, it was a miss. When I was picking up my order, I stopped by the front to look at the pastries, and there a couple of gnats flying and landing, so the checker and I laughed about it and she threw away couple of chocolate chip muffin tops, but I still passed on the sweet treats. Also, they gave me the wrong order, but I didn't know it until I got all the way home (3 miles) and since the order they mistakenly gave me was equivalent to half my order, I had to come back to get my original order, cuz it wouldn't have been enough, but they did give me the other order for free, because they can't serve it after I've broken the seal. We ordered: MacNCheese sandwiches-we got 3 of these orders. $10.95 each. It comes with a bag of kettle style chips, and has no flavor whatsoever. It's a white cheddar, I'm only guessing because it white on color, the noodle (shells) had a good chewy consistency and the cheese was gooey, but this also had very little flavor. It's all in between a toasted Texas toast style. 3 Meat Flat bread pizza-we got 2 of these. $10.95 each. The look of these had so much promise, it looked yummy, looked crunchy. These had no flavor either. It was so dry and was void of any flavor. Free Wrong order: Chinese Chicken Salad-the greens looked good, the chicken was plenty, but I can tell it was a little old cuz it had a slight gamy taste to it. It had fried wonton skins as the crunchy element. The salad dressing was the Asian garlic sesame oil kind, but the sweet part of this dressing had a sugar substitute kind of flavor, like aspartame, so so bad. I don't think I'll come read more

Was craving soup since I was eating a sandwich. Decided to get the chicken noodle soup @ Paneras since I had a sore throat and wanted something warm and nutritious. Ordered online and got the order pretty quickly (would recommend this as they prioritize your order!) which was nice. Upon opening it, I was completely shocked by how small the chicken noodle soup is. (See size comparison between a piece of the baguette and the soup itself). It reminded me of a small ice cream cup you get at Baskins Robbins. I was dumbfounded to believe that this was $7?! This was NOT worth my buck- there was very little chicken and noodles, mainly broth. It was hot which was nice but I finished this so quickly because it was tiny. Just disappointed by how the price and food quality doesn't add up here. If I had to come here again, I would try a drink/something else next time but because of this specific order, I'm rating it a low score. I definitely don't recommend ordering the chicken noodle soup here. read more

New drink addition to Panera's drink section! It's an energy drink that's powered by guarana and green coffee extracts. The Mango Yuzu Citrus tastes a lot like Yakult (a Japanese probiotic beverage) or Calpico and it's one of my favorite out of the 3. The strawberry lemonade mint is not too minty, but it's acceptable and doesn't take artificial and I like to mix it with their original agave lemonade. I'm so ready for the summer!! read more

Yea. I come here for coffee and pastries only. They got me with their coffee subscription. I've tried their food plenty of times. Always fails. And over priced. Small portions. Quality ain't there either. Service is cool though. My complaint here is my friends waited over 20 min to get their food. Two breakfast sandwiches and orange juice. I understand it's the morning rush. But seriously? Sorry guys. Not cool. I'll stick to coffee and pastries. Other than that, nope! read more

This is the closest Panera to me and the worst one in our area. They have no staff to take your order and they have No Bagels Worst of all the dining rooms are so dirty and messy. The bathrooms are worst than a gas station in the Mojave desert. Hard to believe that this location use to be so great to come to.

Panera always hits the spot, and this place is no different. They're entire system here works to a T and I never find myself wasting any time when coming to pick up any food. It's really hard to mess up anything at places like these, but with that being said, they really do a good job in making sure you get everything you need and go above and beyond in providing your food. Great choice for anyone! read more

The food is okay here, coffee is good, break is also good, not bad for a panera bread plus you can come here to study or work.

Can I give 0 stars.....Rude, dirty and a dump. This place is an absolute clown show!!!! I will never return here. No more service.... It's going to get to the point where we have to cook our own food. The staff is rude and the ordering system isn't intuitive. read more

I've always had a good experience at this location, until today. And it only takes one bad experience to erase all the good ones in the past, sadly. I have no complaints about the food, but the service is what this store sorely lacks. Specifically, Bryan Delgadillo, the store manager. I purchased a $50 gift card two weeks ago bc they were running a promo (free $10 gift card with $50 gift card purchase). However, they ran out of the $10 cards so the cashier handed me the receipt and asked that I return in about a week to pick up that card. So, I returned today (two weeks after purchase) to pick up bagels and the $10 gift card that was owed to me. The cashier approached the manager for assistance and he said he would be back with the card. However, he returns to tell me the card has already been picked up bc there's no longer a record under my name. I immediately tell him that I have not been there since the initial purchase, at which point he says, "I can give you a card today, but next time---" I cut him off right there and say, "no, you know what, it's ok, keep the card," and I walked away upset AND embarrassed bc I wasn't going to have that kind of interaction in front of other patrons. But my anger got the best of me so I walked back into the store and beelined it to the manager in the kitchen and I asked him for a refund of today's bagel purchase. I also asked for his name so that I could report the incident to corporate. Without even considering that this could've been a record keeping error on Panera's end, he automatically assumed the card had been picked up and insinuated with that line of thinking that I was trying to swindle the store of a lousy $10 gift card. So, I quickly called (855) 372-6372 and filed a complaint. Corporate offered me a credit on my account but I declined and said I'll never frequent Panera, especially store #601630. My advice: don't run a promo when that particular item is not in stock. Don't treat customers like the way you treated me bc that's how you lose loyal patrons, fast. read more

I love Panera, we dropped by after doing a pick up order. I ordered the usual, salad with tomato soup, and my fiancé did a half sandwich and tomato soup. I was surprised when i looked at my salad. The container was fill appropriately. Other locations are so stingy. So this was a huge plus for us. The restaurant over all looked clean and following COVID restrictions Only downfall is that no matter what Panera bread you go to, even when your request utensils when placing your order on the app, they don't provide them for you. (And of course no napkins) This location did not provide us utensils even when we requested them. Seems to be an issue in many locations. Should be looked into read more

The manager there, Chris was amazing. Super nice and courteous. Just went around the tables to check if everything was fine.

Date of visit: October 28, 2018 The cold I was fighting had reared its ugly head, and it was affecting my appetite... so during our shopping trip, I told my girlfriend that I wanted something light for lunch. We saw Panera Bread nearby, and figured that would do it. We both decided to do the Half & Half combos; I went with a Half Asian Sesame Chicken Salad and a bowl of Cream of Chicken & Wild Rice Soup ($11.48); Kathy chose the Half Chipotle Chicken Avocado Melt and a small order of Baja Mac & Cheese ($11.78). I went with hot tea, and my lady went with their Passion Papaya Green Tea. The food really hit the spot - my soup especially helped with my cold, and Kathy being the mac & cheese connoiseur she is was pleased with how the avocado and flavorings went together on Panera's offering. The French baguettes we got with our orders were quite good; Panera does their breads right, and the combination of the baguette and soup especially did me good. And the dessert... even though Kathy and I split one of their Chocolate Chip Muffies (.99), it was very delicious and I made a mental note to myself to get more of them once I kicked my cold. Of course, free wifi is always a plus at Panera Bread locations! read more

This is a solid Panera Bread location. Service is quick, there's lots of tables for seating, and the food is always fresh & delicious! Parking can be tough if you come at a busy hour but if you're willing to walk a bit, you can just park further away in the lot.

Panera Bread - Tuna Salad Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Walnut, California

Warning it seems that when you decide you like a certain thing like I like the Autumn squash soup period well I ordered it one too many times because they quit putting the nuts on top and they quit putting a baguette bread inside so the more you order from somewhere you like the more they let you down and give you what you least expect. The bare Bones of what you ordered they don't care about you anymore if you keep being a loyal customer. you get slapped in the face with your lucky you got what you got. We all know that things are not normal . But it's not a good idea to treat your customers that are loyal to your restaurant in such a manner. Disappointed read more

If you feel adventurous and like the excitement of getting your order right but the quality not equal to the price -- this is the place for you. When you go to other fast food spots there's a consistency in quality that you expect. Like, if you went to McDonalds they might forget your Big Mac... but when they bring it out it's not gonna be missing the lettuce and pickles and that middle bun. This Bacon Turkey Bravo was maybe the saddest sandwich I've ever had. ANY other supervisor at ANY other fast food joint would have not let this one get out there. Dear Panera supervisor/manager, Maybe change the name to Sadwich OR let your sandwich guy go. He doesn't want to work there. I know it's hard times right now but every other place is keeping their quality right up there. I've seen some of the other complaints from years ago. Stick to the breads and the soups. This is the third time that your "sadwich" has disappointed. Congrats. read more

Panera Bread - Change the name from "Bacon Turkey Bravo" to "Let your sandwich maker go already - they hate their job.". - Sandwiches Near Me - Walnut, California

Absolutely the worst service in the world. First you have to squint to read the menu. Then you have to order it on a kiosk which allows very little leeway in how you may adjust your order. Then possibly, if you're lucky, you'll get your order 45 minutes later. Won't be coming here again. We're still waiting for our order, or I'd take a picture of it. We were told we'd have French Fries. They're chips. Old lettuce. All bread no tuna! Update Next Day: Both of us (my husband had the $15 supposedly "spicy" chicken sandwich-- which it was not) are having stomach issues today. As he just sarcastically said, "Boy! Something really didn't agree with me yesterday. Gee! I wonder what?" Every other meal meal we ate yesterday was home cooked. Stay far away from this place. It's unclean and horrible food. If you look at my past reviews, it's pretty rare, if I ever have, I urge anyone not to partake of a particular restaurant or business. This one is a uniquely qualified as our worst ever meal experience. read more

Recently ordered a delivery of a Family Feast from Panera Bread for dinner and, as expected, it was ok but could have been better. We ordered a soup and sandwich meal. The Broccoli Cheddar soup was still hot upon arrival. It was rich, creamy, and tasty. The sandwiches were pretty inconsistent, though. We ordered the Chipotle Chicken Avocado Melt, Bacon Turkey Bravo Sandwich, Toasted Steak & White Cheddar, and Mediterranean Veggie. The flavors of all the sandwiches were fine - really nothing special or worth going into detail over. But the breads were pretty dry. So the sandwiches were not the most enjoyable. The Caesar Salad was fine as well. It tasted like your usual Caesar Salad. But the "croutons" here are not your super-toasted crunchy croutons you're accustomed too. Rather they use chunks of dry bread, which actually was off-putting, since the texture felt more like stale bread in a salad. On top of all this they give you a French Baguette, and I really wish they had other options. The Baguette was rock solid, so we didn't eat it. We also ordered a Mango Yuzu drink, which tasted fine, but isn't worth the price in my opinion. It was refreshing, though, and not too sweet. To sum it up, for a place that is meant to specialize in breads, they really need to up the bread game here. read more
