- APAizZziNg P6 days ago3.0I love Panera Bread so much and This is my first time dinning in this location. Place is clean, food was done fast. And they even gave me free taste cookie (I guess they’ll use it for the upcoming Valentines) The only thing that bothered me are the staff who’s preparing the food . They talked (which is fine) but SOOO LOUD in their language. There’s one lady there who keeps on laughing “so loud”… i mean, they can do it inside or whatever, but not in-front of the “dinning customer” like me who wants to have a meal peacefully. So I don’t think I’m not going back here.
- KIKema IvikoffDec 28, 20253.0ordered online through grubhub because me and kids are sick. kids are recovering from flu and got hungry, I'm still sick. I didn't read reviews, and we usually like panera soup during sickness. Got my order with missing items. Was so frustrated, contacted them and instead of apologizing or accepting their fault they blamed their systems, drivers (even hinted that the driver could take smth from the bag). I didn't want to take sick kids and driving sick too, asked if they can send the rest of my order with other drivers or smth, they were kind of aggressive and like no time talking and said either someone would come and pick it or they would give points to order again not refund (i needed food asap for kids, couldn't ask anyone to pick it up thats why ordered online delivery). On the the second try manager lady said to me over the phone the guy manager was really patient talking politely to me (he was not really, and like I was supposed to be grateful for it). So we ended up driving to the store. They gave us the rest of the order and added more food, put some coupons (noticed after that they are expired in 2024). All were so polite, looking at us and smiling (like the whole team came out). And because of expired coupons I think now that it was all a joke for them or what. I'm scared to eat that food maybe it's also expired last year. Paid 61$, still sick and hungry and so frustrated with the whole experience. Will not order from this store. 3 stars cuz not sure if they tried to solve the issue or they were joking.
- JBJim BrownDec 12, 20255.0Just had to share of my incredible experience today specifically with manager Bobby at the Algonquin location. Super fast service and you could tell he and his team were getting after it to ensure everything running smoothly. He couldn’t have been nicer! Food was great too!
- AFAM FitnessNov 11, 20251.0Waiting in drive thru for 10 minutes for 1 “bowl”of soup. More like a glorified cup of soup which cost me $9 and no drink!! Private equity really ruined this business. Used to love coming here and now I feel price gouged. Goodbye Panera bread I’ll be going to Potbelly for now on with soup around $5
