The food is terrible, I just spent 50$ for some dried sandwiches and some nasty flavorless soups . Not worth it, I feel like I just threw my money away

The creme brulee hot latte was delish. My sister wasn't too crazy about the Madagascar vanilla hot latte. It didn't taste as good as she hoped. She had a salad. I did half sandwich and half soup. The autumn squash soup was tasty. The chicken sandwich was spicy.

Panera Bread, 528 Gateway Drive, Brooklyn, NY 11239 (Gateway Center Mall)
The employees (some, not all) and one particular manager of this establishment are horrible. So much attitude and disrespect. They treat their customers horribly. This place is exactly where it needs to be, in the hood! I frequent this place on a regular basis but no more following an incident on Thursday 1/8/2026, in which an employee was very nasty towards me and even made a disrespectful reference towards my mother. The manager witnessed this and got mad at me because of the way I responded to this disrespectful person!

They got my order wrong. Now I have to eat the sandwich that I did not want and I don't have time to go back and wait for them to remake it. They also didn't put even one napkin, and there were 3 meals in my order They also got one of the sides wrong!

This Panera sucks. Which is a shame because there aren’t many, if any, others in the area. The lanky black cashier with the baseball cap seem very cold and rude. I never been to this location before and didn’t see the rapid pick up window, and they had food sitting near the counter, so I thought that is where we were suppose to pick up. He took the order, and didn’t direct us to go the side. So he just had us waiting there. Our food was ready and we didn’t know. A simple instruction would have saved us time. He just took the order and brushed us off. It was after 10-15 mins of him just avoiding us and our own curiosity did we realize to go to the side. I definitely won’t be back. I wish I would have looked at the reviews before going. It’s giving “I hate my job, and I want you to feel it”
