    ​I recently stopped by Panera Bread for a quick lunch, and since the seasonal menu is in full swing, I couldn’t resist ordering the Autumn Squash Soup. As someone who appreciates a well-balanced, comforting meal—especially when the weather starts to turn—this bowl really hit the mark. ​The Flavor Profile ​The soup is a masterclass in seasonal flavors. It’s a rich blend of butternut squash and pumpkin, which provides a natural, velvety sweetness that isn't overpowering. What elevates it from a standard squash soup is the subtle infusion of apple juice and warm spices like cinnamon and curry. It’s sweet, savory, and slightly earthy all at once. The addition of a little heavy cream gives it a luxurious mouthfeel that makes it feel like a true "treat" rather than just a side dish. ​Texture and Toppings ​I opted for the bowl size, and it came topped with a generous sprinkle of salty roasted pumpkin seeds (pepitas). This is a crucial detail—the crunch of the seeds perfectly offsets the smoothness of the puree. I paired mine with the classic sourdough baguette, which is essential for dipping and ensuring not a single drop of that golden broth goes to waste. ​The Experience ​The service at this location was efficient, and the "pick-up" process was seamless, which I always appreciate. While Panera has moved toward a more tech-heavy, self-service model, the atmosphere remains warm and inviting—a great spot to decompress for thirty minutes.

    My son wanted to go to panera after hockey. It was 330pm and we stopped and ordered on the iPad when you come in.i notice when I got my family food that my husband's and sons bread for there sandwich was different. I went back to ask and said excuse me I think this bread is wrong for this sandwich its supposed to be a bagel. Which she replied " umm well that is a bagel" I said yes I understand but we have got this sandwich in the past and it is not the same bread. She stared at me and never said anything. I've been to alot of panera's and have never been treated so poorly. The young blonde that makes the food needs better training on how to treat others.

    The employees at 3:30pm 2/1/26 were extremely rude. They seriously need a evaluation them. The food was trash compared to ever other Penera we have been to. Also every tabe in the place was covered in leftover food. Totally disgusting and disappointing.
