    I spent $23 at Panera Bread today and had a really disappointing experience. The chicken sandwich was cold, and the lettuce was clearly spoiled (I have photos). The cheese on the sandwich tasted stale, and the vegetables were not fresh — I ended up throwing the tomatoes away. I also ordered a bagel with cream cheese and received a dry bagel with the cream cheese on the side. Since I was driving, I had to pull over to prepare it myself. The grilled cheese wasn’t grilled at all — the bread was soft, not toasted, and it was just plain American cheese with no flavor. For the price Panera charges, this quality is unacceptable. This experience did not match the brand’s reputation and was not worth the cost.

    Ordered lunch in the drive thru around 12:15ish, young lady at the drive thru sounds like she is miserable and has a bad attitude. Our bread was cold like it just came out of a fridge. Chicken bacon ranch sandwich the bread was hard and stale and had barely any chicken/ranch/bacon on it for it to even be considered a sandwich. I paid $29 for trash. Kinda want a damn refund, wasting my hard earned money on bullshit food.

    Check your order before leaving!! For the past 2 years that I've been coming here weekly, they always forget something in my order. It doesn't matter if it's dine-in or drive-thru. When I get a text message that my order is ready, it's not. When I tell the cashier I'm missing things from my order, I get a blank, shocked face, no idea what I'm missing. On top of missing food or drink items, I'm always missing utensils or straws. Or, I get a fork for soup and a spoon for salad. If I ask for a sugar packet at the drive-thru window, the cashier panics and runs around. I thought they would have learned six sigma by now and have key items by the drive-thru cashier.
