- AVAl VollmanJan 4, 20265.0I love the food. There are so nice. I left a big tip$100 bill
- ACAdriana CaneloDec 29, 20251.0I used to love panera. My go to was the Mediterranean Veggie sandwich. Not sure if panera is following the shrinkflation trend of other businesses, but the sandwich sucks now. It’s so thin now and the veggies look awful. Like just vegetable scraps. The presentation also sucks. It doesn’t look appetizing and it’s thrown together sloppily. Most definitely not worth the price. It’s been 3 times in a row I’ve tried Panera and just been disappointed. Why am I paying for thin soggy vegetable sandwich that’s way less sustenance? Not coming back. It used to be sturdy, thicker bread, more hummus, crunchy vegetables, better taste.
- LFLeslie FatlandNov 25, 20254.0The signature hot chocolate was not delicious like the first time I had it; inconsistent quality. The food is OK and overpriced. The associates were VERY helpful, though!
- MGMary Beth GuzmanNov 15, 20254.0There has to be a more eco comical way to order bowls of soup.
- LLLENov 3, 20252.0Finally decided to leave a review instead of quietly accepting sub-par food quality. I ordered the Balsamic Chicken Greens with Grains. It comes with avocados and Balsamic and Green goddess dressing. I was under the impression that the avocados were fresh but found that they had been frozen and thawed, were slimy and mushy and very unappetizing. I don't know were the Balsamic part was since I didn't taste any. I asked for feta cheese on the side but got none at all. This is not the first time I've ordered pickup and not been happy with my order. Panera you need to do better.
