Good food, but it took half an hour for my boyfriend's toasted bagel and cup and nearly twenty minutes for my soup and cup. Boyfriend confronted a worker asking about the status of his order (the machine said his order was ready) and apparently they forgot about it and he watched as the worker made his order within thirty seconds. We got it for takeout to catch the train but it took so long we missed the train and ended up just dining in.

I recently ordered an online order. They forgot to include the cream cheese. I attempted to call them, was met with a manager who hung up. I called multiple times and was ignored. When calling with a different number, they picked up and finally issued a refund. Very rude staff who are incompetent, can’t handle a single order correctly.

Order rapid orders very often 30 mins in advance because I know they suck. Guess what it's even worse than I thought because it's still not ready. Ask the Filipino girl in the front, she acknowledges that we've been waiting for a while and no one can still help us. Great service

Every Sunday morning, my wife and I have breakfast at this Panera Bread, always sitting at the same table and ordering the same menu. This has been our routine for three years. However, two weeks ago, the salad, which is usually very fresh, seemed a little less fresh than usual. I mentioned this to the manager (Rita), and a short time later, she personally brought a freshly made salad to our table and politely apologized. But the truly amazing thing happened last week. We were having breakfast with the same menu again, when Manager Rita came to our table and asked if we were satisfied with the salad today. Considering the countless customers who visit this restaurant every day, it was truly surprising that she remembered us from a brief encounter a week earlier and came to our table to greet us. The reason we've been coming here every week for over three years is the healthy food made with fresh ingredients and the comfortable atmosphere, but Rita's kind manners and service are something you wouldn't even experience at the finest restaurants. Rita! You are the best manager! I would also like to thank Maites, who prepares our food with such care every week. She consistently prepares our orders exactly to our liking for over three years. Clean, neat, fast, and always accommodating to our requests, Maites is truly the best chef. We always look for Panera Bread wherever we go, but this Panera Bread in the Bay Terrace Shopping Mall is the best Panera Bread. Merry Christmas!
