- SDSherlyn DoigJan 3, 20265.0Stephen, the manager, goes above and beyond! Everything but the kitchen sink cookies are the best cookies I’ve ever had in my entire existence!
- DFDana FiguraNov 30, 20253.0Very bleh experience. They got my order wrong in multiple ways then when I asked for cream cheese on my bagel they said I had to go back to re-order and pay for it. Seems petty to me.
- BSBailey SamsonNov 15, 20251.0This review is not to reflect on the employees as they were perfectly fine. I will start by saying I haven’t been inside a Panera for years. It is absolutely ridiculous how minimal the human interaction is. I have to take my own order, or wait for an employee because there is not enough staff and I have to bus my own table yet the quality consistently declines and prices rise. On top of that, the food is barely passing as warm. The workers are doing the best they can with a full restaurant, minimal staff and minimum wage.
- MSMalcolm ShawOct 31, 20255.0Love being in the sip club.
- WPWandering in ParadiseSep 2, 20255.0Stopped in for some chocolate chipper cookies at the Panera in The Shoppes at Carlsbad. Always a favorite bakery item. Was a super nice and clean location with nice self service ordering. Lots of indoor and dog friendly outdoor seating. Fast wait time and friendly service. Recommend!
