Panera Bread

Friendly staff, food is alright (nothing special and very bland) but it’s good for a quick snack. I really like their bagels and seasonal squash soup.

This was the most bomb tomato soup I’ve ever had. Think of the stars colliding into a pretty orbe like feature. I levitated off the group form how good the soup was, would buy again

Panera Bread is my go-to spot when I want fresh, delicious food in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Their soups, salads, and sandwiches are always made with quality ingredients, and you can taste the freshness in every bite. I especially love pairing the warm, crusty bread with a hot bowl of broccoli cheddar soup—it’s pure comfort food! The staff is always friendly and quick to help, and the café is clean with plenty of seating, making it perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done. Plus, their bakery items and seasonal drinks are a treat I can never resist. Highly recommend for a wholesome, satisfying meal any time of the day!

I can always count on this Panera Bread for a great experience. The service is fast, with attentive staff members who always make sure I have everything I need. I love their signature broccoli cheddar soup in a bread bowl—it’s creamy, comforting, and filling. The restaurant itself has a warm and inviting ambiance, with a nice mix of seating options. Whether I’m grabbing lunch solo or meeting a friend, it’s always a great place to enjoy a meal in a pleasant setting.

Lots of choices, even for my mom who has special dietary restrictions. The food was good and fresh. Prices were reasonable in respect to the current state of economy and inflation. The cashier was very friendly and personable which is always a plus these days as well.

at the time of the writing theres a lot of shattered glass outside on the parking lot entrance/exit facing valley. i tried calling you guys just now but no one is answering

Went in for a free soup, and low and behold! It was clean in there this time! Clean less crowded and an overall cery pleasant experience. The soup was their new ten veggie one, it was pretty good except for the lemons [aren't they fruits?] They could have left them out they had a negative impact on the flavor.

First time to Panera. The food was great! You order your food, you service your drinks, choose your seat, and wait for your notification that your food is ready for pickup.

This location's dining area is very big and I love how they have a bar type area with electrical outlets. I got a pumpkin muffin and a cinnamon roll. The muffin was fresh and soft and tasted good, I did wish they heated both items before I got them. The cinnamon roll tasted like lemon which I don't like that much so it was a little off putting to me. I like the self ordering kiosks, you can order from your table and they will bring to you plus the order ahead and grab and go area.

They have great salads here and good bread. Right now I don't think you can dine in, but I was able to get contact free curbside pickup. I ordered some chicken salad with pecans and other goodies. Was a very easy process, and the salad was fresh.

Young man who helped me was knowledgeable & very nice. Got a variety of pastries. The orange scone was specular, but the chocolate croissant was overdone.

I love the Mac and cheese but too expensive for the portions size. Also my mom got the wild rice soup and said the store version is creamier. I haven't ate at this one but had delivery . Many stores and Costco has the mac and cheese bigger sizes for cheap .

Food was good, bread was fresh, service was Good, this location is very clean, definitely recommend going to eat here.

I liked it here, food was good but I feel like it was a little too pricey. There's similar but cheaper places around. Still a nice place to try out.

This place is going downhill. The day we visited the drink station was overflowing onto the ground. Big puddle of water. Slipping hazard. A few weeks before that noticed parts of the ceiling was missing. They installed locks on the bathrooms. The tables are always dirty. No one cleans them. Customers have to pick up their own food. Most of the time the pagers don't work. They yell out your name so you can only hear them if your sitting near the kitchen.

Every day we go to Panera we order the parfait and every time it gets smaller and smaller. Panera do you have any smaller containers then this and they also charges us for the same amount of money. 6.39 for such a small amount.

I would like to share my recent experience at the restaurant. Upon entering, we noticed that the counter was unattended. After waiting for a few minutes without being acknowledged, we decided to use the self-service kiosk to place our order. I ordered the chicken chipotle sandwich, but I was disappointed with the quality. The sandwich contained very little chicken and was poorly made (see the picture below). Overall, I did not enjoy my experience and hope that the restaurant will improve its service and food quality in the future.

I ordered bread bowl broc. Chedar soup and another bowl soup. Bread bowl is full of bread and few spoon of soup. Very disappointed with the volume of soup. I had to take the soup from my fried soup to finish the meal. Also, buy one soup and get 2nd off was not honored because website/ app was not working today. I don't think is fair to charge the full price if their system is down because is not customers fault.

Service was great, they answered all my questions. I ordered the Chipotle Chicken, scrambled egg & Avocado Wrap and the chicken. I ordered it to go and the chicken was cold, no way was I going to drive back to complain. I also wish they spread the avocado evenly.

I come regularly. Seems often half their power outlets at the tables don't work. No kidding, I tried four and didn't work. Mentioned it to them a few times but still nothing. Customer Service seems not to care. I originally posted above in July and most power outlets still not fixed. Also, tables and floor often not cleaned. Come on franchise owner or corporate get on top of things. Could be a safety matter.

I hate to leave a bad review, but this was not a good experience. It's been several years since I attended a Panera Bread, and if this location is anything to go by, the quality has really declined. As other reviewers noted, the $14 sandwich I ordered was sadly lacking on ingredients. With cost of living skyrocketing, it's sad to order something so expensive, and receive something back I could have made better at home. And I'll do just that next time - stay home and make my own.

Why are all of your outlets broken? Pls fix the ones outside in the patio and the ones inside in the corner im begging u 🙏🏼 this is getting ridiculous

We ordered the whole Chicken BLT sandwich today, without bacon. Only to find 3 small strips of chicken and the rest crumbs of chicken! $15 for less than half of the usual volume of chicken! We are very disappointed, especially since we said no bacon! A request of no bacon should equate to a decent amount of chicken… not scraps of whatever is left. Unbelievable! Panera used to be known for quality…

Typically Panera is worth it. But not this location. The place is dirty. The bakery selection is terrible and the prepared food is hastily thrown together. I forgot why I stopped going to this location. Upon entering the doors today I remembered why. Back to finding a different location.

Panera bread has changed their whole menu. It's definitely worse quality. We tried a new sandwich, the Toasted Italiano sandwich. It was supposed to have a lot of meat like in their picture. But instead it had 3 slices of thin, sad meat. Such a disappointment. Also the bag of chips is only 1 oz. 1 measly oz. Like why? Who hurt you? I'm probably gonna stop going to Panera bread anymore. I used to go about once a week before this change.

All I wanted was my cup after I paid for my order so I could drink some Iced coffee. Instead they make me wait till my orders finished then they give me an EMPTY cup. So why the hell am I supposed to wait for my food to come out to get a CUP that DOESNT EVEN HAVE MY ICED COFFEE IN IT. I was super thirsty and just wanted my iced coffee. That’s the reason I gave the service a 1 star. The wild rice soup here is gas tho. UPDATE: I just got back and opened my bag of food, Panera please package orders better. I open my bag to 2 bread rolls just out, no packaging.

Horrible value. Our last takeout order had a soggy grilled cheese and they only filled our Mac and cheese cup half way. Their new croissant toast sandwich wasn't crispy at all. At these current prices, I expected a lot more. And as usual, it's filthy inside and 10x worse on the back patio. Not coming back.

Some food tasted okay but it's a little pricey for a sandwich. I don't mind sandwich that was wrapped w/ paper, but at least wrap it like it's " food " instead of garbage or left over? I've gotten sandwich that was wrapped worst than the pic showing before. Also putting your french baguette directly in the large bag mixing with plastic utensils, chips and napkins is very nasty even before covid time. Who knows if the plastic utensils package or bag of chips had been dropped on to the floor and put it back? For the price you charge, I think you can do better than this..

Underwhelming experience. The portion size seem rather small. The tables were dirty and the workers didn't seem to care to clean up. Won't be coming back

This is the second time I received already open bags of chips in my order. Today I received two already open bags of chips that are old and stale it’s disgusting. I would like a gift card to Panera. Not touching chips that already have holes in the bag upon arrival who knows that bugs have been on it. Manager, let me know when you’d like to fix this health hazard.

I tried to order a salad online last night. They were out of the salad mix. What kind of restaurant is out of lettuce at dinner time? This is the second or maybe third time they’ve been out of something. Their portions have gotten smaller. Even the baguettes have gotten smaller. I’ve been going here for two years and the prices have gone up consistently. I won’t be coming back.

I’m not sure how I feel right now, but it isn’t good. I don’t remember the sandwich’s being this small. I did order half sandwich, but for 11 dollars? This is what I get?

This place is filthy. I can believe how dirty this restaurant is. The floor was covered in dirt and the HVAC registers are covered in grime. We had to ask to have our table cleaned. It was covered in food crumbs.

What’s happening with Walnut, CA Panera’s? Burned meal, dirty tables, and had to wait as cashier also busy making breakfast. Get your act together!

Awful looking bagels, they didn't include the cream cheese in the bag, paid almost $18 for these sorry looking bagels. Will never visit or order from this location again.

The restaurant is not clean the food is frozen and the staff isn’t friendly we used to go everyday for launch and we used to spend 40-50$$$ not worth changed my whole review about the american food.

It is 10:27 am we stood in the front to order for 5 mins. No one came to the front until we had to look for someone. When we ordered, the young lady took our order and then she said oh i think breakfast is over. We walked out at 10:35 am. I will never return here. I have been to so many other Panera's and none have ever been as unwelcoming as this one.

The quality of the service is horrible chunks of ice in my “smoothie” they felt like the size of rocks Overpiced hospital food

Not going to come back here... what a fxxxing waste of money to come here... do you think that this is worth of $12?? This is why I don't give my tips first because you immediately regret that you gave them $5 tips for this, when you do Togo orders... this is whole sandwich order of steak and chadder, you don't see chadder and very small amount of steak and I can't find red onions... very disappointing and disgusting service. Definitely I don't recommend and feel so bad to people live close to this place and have to deal with this world worst food ever, I hope whoever made this sandwich gets a good lesson and gets some another training.

Panera is partnering with delivery services right now. I was excited! Especially since Panera has expressed how important the health and safety of their customers is to them. They are requesting that you enter instructions for the drivers to drop your food with no contact. The order got here quickly. The driver ignored the delivery instructions, ignored my beware of dogs sign and came right to my door; WITH HER MASK OFF. My dogs were going crazy so I couldn't refuse the delivery. After my husband and I assessed, the food was well protected and his smoothie had a covered lid. My coffee on the other hand had a partially open lid so, it was not consumed. I called this location to inform them of the poor delivery. Their manager, Gerard, was full of excuses and refused to take responsibility. I believe that if you're partnering with someone you represent each other's company's so, he was partially responsible. On top of it all take a look at the meager coffee portion I was given, half the cup was whipped cream so I paid $5 for 4oz of coffee. Goodbye Panera.

I used to love Panera soups. But if u come during lunch and order soup, instead of making more soup, they add tons of water. So instead of broccoli cheese or baked potato soup, its broccoli cheese water or potato water. Zero flavor. So disappointed in this place. What a rif off!!!

When I ordered the chicken noodle soup it was clearly cold all I wanted was a bowl of warm soup secondly when I ordered a drink, they gave me an empty cup if on the order they ask you what you want aren’t they supposed to fill it for you? And thirdly the wait was long but they weren’t even that busy also in the front area, there weren’t even any staff.
