  I absolutely love coming to this Panera location in Peoria near the mall, and a big reason why is Alasia. From the moment she sees my car pull up or hears my voice, she knows exactly who I am and what I order. That kind of personal connection is so rare and genuinely appreciated. Alasia consistently makes me feel seen, valued, and welcome every single time I visit. It’s because of her that I keep coming back. She is truly a huge asset to Panera, and I hope she gets the recognition she deserves!

  Easter Sunday and passing through. Sat for a quick lunch with my 11 year old. Luckily we sat near enough to the food service area to hear the girls behind the counter curse every five words. Really nice, especially during lunchtime on a holiday. Super classy. Topped off by the table next to us the guy snorting snot back in his nose and coughing and vaping the whole time. Bathrooms were sticky and not very clean. Overall terrible experience. Someone should step in and manage the place.

  I went through the drive-thru today and these young people were so rude, they acted like they are not an employee of Panera bread. They are not who I usually have. Fire them. They were saying disgusting comments and the food was horrible

  I came back here today after about two decades. I used to go to Bradley University and then worked for Caterpillar here in Peoria. It’s so nice to see this Panera Bread has kept the same look and feel although stayed relevant and up to date. Thanks team Panera of Peoria.

  Very relaxing atmosphere but every Panera I have every gone to go is way too hot. The bathroom thermostat said 78.
