    Our favorite coffee shop! Our Old Bridge cafe offers a warm inviting atmosphere. Here we can sit and have a lovely breakfast or lunch. The staff is so welcoming and friendly. The cashier always makes sure my order is perfect. The team here is efficient and work well together. Always pleasant!

    My daughter with disabilities and a speech impediment has social anxiety when going into public places. As a single mother, I try to help my daughter battle these problems. After entering Panera, ALLEN, MAYA, and ERIN displayed AMAZING customer service. My daughter, who struggled to speak, was greeted with such kindness and respect. Thank you for being such patient and amazing people! We’ve never felt so welcomed and respected before, thank you Manalapan Panera! Me and my daughter have an amazing establishment to come back to and support!

    Ordered 2 Pastry items and they got one wrong. How do you get the only 2 items in an order wrong? I asked for the brownie bites and the cherry pastry and I got the brownie bites and a brownie no cherry pastry. Very bad!
