    Panera in La Quinta is my go-to coffee place. I've made new friends with the other regulars and the employees. Special mention goes to Rosa, Soleil, Tony, and the general manager Ubaldo. He always makes a round of the dining room greeting customers when he comes in. The food is freshly prepared and my order is always accurately made.

    I had stopped coming to Panera as every time I went their shelves were empty and I’m talking early in the morning. Today pleasantly surprised! Lovely place, bright, clean, great staff. Tony told me they take pride in their store. It showed. After taking my order he was busy wiping tables, cleaning, and greeting the customers like family. Shelves were stocked with yummy looking pastry’s and my bagel and coffee were great, I will be back!

    Very tasty food! Staff is very friendly. Gave out lots of free samples that were equally delicious. A little pricey, but worth the money.
