- JRJenny RogersNov 15, 20251.0Y’all can’t even act like this is acceptable. This isn’t a mistake, this is just disrespectful. Not only is this the only avocado on the entire sandwich but it’s already turned. Gross service.
- WKWill KopfNov 9, 20251.0This place is getting so expensive its crazy.
- RMRebecca Grace MarionSep 18, 20251.0DO NOT ORDER HERE! I placed a curbside order because I was not in proper attire as I was dealing with an ER visit at the same time. They didn’t answer the phone when my order was ready for me to find out why it hadn’t been brought out after several minutes. I called corporate just to try to reach the cafe and the representative was hung up on twice by whoever was working. This was at around 3:00 in the afternoon on Thursday September 18th, 2025. If they cannot support curbside pick up it shouldn’t be an option to order it that way.
- XJXecavia JacobsAug 8, 20202.0So this Panera itself is decent, although the last two times visiting there were mistakes to me orders. My complaints however aren’t the order mistakes, mistakes happen and with the plexiglass in between the cashier and customer it can become rather difficult to hear at times. My complaint is with management the last time I tried to resolve the issue. I had already made it home by the time I notice the mistake, so I called up to Panera Bread to speak to management, it was a rather expensive order so I felt it fair to call and remedy the situation. First thing the manager said was that they couldn’t find my order, I made two separate orders and ironically the one that wasn’t showing happen to be the one with the mistake, however I still had my receipt. Next the manager said was the cashier repeated the order to me and I confirmed, that was besides the point because obviously there was a miscommunication between both of us and part of the order was wrong, plus having dealt with other restaurants in the past I’ve never been questioned about a mistake, to mention what I wanted was cheaper than what I got. Next was that I could tell over the phone that the manager that day was reluctant to remedy the situation, but ended up offering to give me half of what I should have gotten instead just offering me a whole of what I should have received on my next visit. Let’s just say I’ve been to this restaurant 3x in one week spending about $40 each visit, they just lost a customer. I’ll just buy the soup from the store next time since it’s cheaper and I can bypass the inexcusable customer service.
