    It’s been a while since I’ve eaten at Panera Bread — the last time was at the Euless location. Today we decided to grab some lunch to go, but unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The sandwich came out fine, but the French Dip didn’t come with the dip. We also ordered one small Mac & Cheese and a Broccoli Cheddar Soup, but instead received two Chicken Noodle Soups instead. I even noticed the lady checking the order at pickup, so I didn’t think to double-check myself — but when I got home, I was really disappointed to see multiple mistakes. Hopefully, they can pay more attention to to-go orders in the future.

    They were out of a number of items on the menu at about 8pm on a Saturday night. Staff handled it well. Food was fine, nothing to get excited about. Restaurant could use a good cleaning.

    I drove up and was about to get off my car and i arrived at 9:44pm, so i had 16 mins left to make an order before closing. Then the lady walked towards the door laughing and locked it. And it wasnt even 10 yet. Then I park afar in parking lot and i hear some employee cussing and yelling towards me and my partner laughing and cussing being super unprofessional. Never again coming to this panera bread and being disrespected. I wish i could give this place a negative-5 star. Worst service ever. The lady description she had short black hair & race was black. I just do not tolerate that type of action.
