My broccoli frittata was burnt, and they still plated it. I asked for a replacement and they gave ma asiago bacon. That was burnt too. Oh well at least my latte was good.

Overpriced, and not a pleasant place to go sit and eat. There pick up process is disorganized and confusing. They pretty much discontinue anything thats good and if you lile something, it won't necessarily be the same the next time you order,very inconsistent. They do have some amazing employees however, and some who really dont want to be there. There is a guy there, I think he is a manager, he really doesnt seem to like his job, and spent the 30 plus minutes I was waiting for my order, complaining about my order, and how inconvenient it was (big order that we had ordered a couple of hours ahead of time, since catering orders have to be 24 hours ahead) went on and on about big orders with no time to prepare etc. I then said, well we ordered as soon as the system would let us, and put pick up time 2 hours later with that in mind. He proceeded to tell me how it messes up his kitchen. I said no problem, we will not order again. And we have not. We have done catering orders, but there online system has been "improved" therefore, just like all of their other processes, mademuch more challenging and complicated, so we cut our order down to the basics, got the rest somewhere else (better cookies for a lot less, about anywhere) and such, and collectively decided it will be a long while before we order again or the boss forgets lol, boss gets what the boss wants, but what was once our go to, is now our ok, if the boss insists

This experience was not ideal. The service was kind of slow and the food is mediocre.

Tried the bagel sandwich with half salad. Was excellent! Salad was fresh and crisp. The bagel sandwich was served warm and was very filling.

I love their blackberry hibiscus tea. It's unsweetened, so it's low carb. If you want it sweetened, mix a some agave sweetened lemonade or sweetened papaya green tea with it. I recently read hibiscus is very good for you (lowers blood sugar, blood pressure, antioxidant, mild diuretic, and good for your liver).
They also have cold coffee and tea bags to make hot tea (3 or 4 types including 1 or 2 herbal).
Sip Club does not include energy drinks or specialty coffee drinks.
I joined the sip club. It's $5.00 a month for each month for 3 months and then it goes up to $14.99 a month starting the 4th month.
You can refill beverages if you dine in. If you take out, then it must be 2 or more hours between ordering a new beverage.
It's $4.99 for ONE large soda, tea, lemonade, etc., so it pays for itself with one drink.
No, Panera Bread Tacoma does not accept reservations.
