Panera Bread

The people here always really friendly. The food has been fresh and prepared well. I like that you can order in advance. The prices are decent too.

Ive always been a fan of their asiago bagels since I went to Panera in Socal. I still find their asiago bagels to be the softest and freshest. I only wish they had sundried tomato spread like they did a long time ago. Today, I tried 2 new items– the peach blueberry smoothie and the steel cut oatmeal with blueberries and granola. The oatmeal came after I was done with my bagel and I was worried that it would be too hot for my 1 year old to eat however it came out at a perfect temperature. He was able to eat it right away. The oatmeal was a generous portion and the blend of flavors were very balanced. The cinnamon on top added the perfect amount of sweetness. The smoothie was also well balanced. It did not taste too sweet, wasnt too thick, and was freshing. It tasted more peachy than blueberry and I was ok with that. Next time Id like to try their almond quinoa oatmeal. I knocked off 1 star because I think their customer service is mediocre. But their space is great– its huge. There are lots of booths and there are outlets to plug your laptop if you needed to.

Nice place. Everyone was friendly and great. But, I did order a break fast sandwich and there was egg shell pieces (small) through out the sandwich. But of course the noticeable piece comes at the end of my consumption. And noticed it after biting in to it. Am I satisfied? Like of. But great staff.

Okay, I’ll be honest. Panera Bread was not my first choice for dinner, nor was it my second or third. I have nothing against them. It’s just I don’t really think of them as dinner food. I gave my boyfriend the freedom to choose where we should go for dinner and he chose this place. Okay, okay. Let’s see how it goes.
I want to be clear that my mood on this particular day was extremely crappy and thus gave me the worst attitude ever and so my boyfriend suffered from that and I apologize because Panera Bread’s food honestly made me feel better in the end.
Their menu is quite simple. You get a few options in each category or you can choose something from their display case. Their bagels looked really appetizing too to be honest with you. My boyfriend and I opted to do their half and half option. Not completely sure what my boyfriend got but it was a panini and their minestrone soup, I think. I got their steak and arugula sandwich and their mac & cheese.
Wait time for both meals were decent. Probably waited like 5 – 6 minutes at most and they deliver the food right to your table which was nice of them. When the food arrived, it looked good so we dug right in.
Their steak and arugula sandwich was tasty, but the bread got all soggy from the sauce which was disappointing and their Mac and cheese just tasted a little off to me. I didn’t try my boyfriend’s panini, but I did try the minestrone and that tasted a little off to me, too. HOWEVER, the overall presentation and taste was enough to cure my crabby attitude and I am down to come back and try this place again.

Now that the weather is warming up there is an outdoor seating area to take advantage of. I also heard from one of the workers that in the near future there will be a few new items on the menu. Again, a beautiful place. As you walk up you notice the fireplace which is pleasant on the eyes. The Habit burger is conveniently located next door too. An ever bigger outdoor patio is there.

This place is very nice and clean. I came here with my bf and the cashier was named Kiera. She was great, really helped us out well and made our experience pleasant. We ordered 1 sandwich, avocado, turkey and bacon. The taste was great, very fresh. The bread was well made, and I just loved it. This place is very cool you can order and pick up your order when you come in. I enjoy the location a lot. Parking isn’t a problem, theres a few different shops that you can shop at around the area. Each sandwich comes with either bread, apple, or chips. We got the chips and it was similar to something we’ve had before, just labeled in panera bread logo.

First time eating at this branch yesterday for lunch. Had a lunch date with my daughter and my wife. Boy, we were not disappointed! This place is huge, well-​kept, and you will notice the manager roaming around frequently. The dood at the counter had a very positive vibe in him, too bad I wasn’t able to get his name (he’s the only black dood at the counter). He always had a smile on him, and was very patient since our little daughter took some time to figure out what she wanted. There is something to be said about positive people especially in the service industry. This dood made me feel valued as a customer.
Food was good, the cheddar broccoli soup I ordered was warm and delicious. We would definitely go back here again. I’ve been a fan of Panera since I discovered them on my trip to Jacksonville, FL some 10 years ago.
Great service, good food, spacious and clean environment. Worth 5 stars!

Excellent service from the man at the front counter. He was not annoyed as I took awhile to order (as it was my first time here) and was cheerful the entire time I was there.
I ordered the turkey chili and steak panini. Both were served hot and very good. I wanted to try a lot of things on the menu, but my stomach wouldn’t allow it.
Looks like a small place from the outside, but once you get inside, it’s very roomy with peaceful music playing. I was happy with the cleanliness of the entire place– no dirty dishes or food left out!
I would definitely recommend and I will be back straight away!

I went to Panera on my dad’s birthday. He had a membership card thing (or something like that) and since it was his birthday they gave him a free pastry item. When we ordered, I choose the Kale Chip Salad (something like that) and my dad choose the Chicken Caesar Salad. Then we ordered some Chicken Noodle Soup.
The lady taking our order was very nice and helpful but when we got our order our chicken noodle soup was in a «cup» (a smaller bowl) when we actually ordered a bowl. The a manager apologized to us and totally us that she would talk to the lady.
The salads were pretty expensive but tasted very good and the salads came it huge bowls. The chicken noodle soup tasted really good, like everything was tender and delicious !! Overall, I think Panera is a great quiet place to eat !!

This is a great place to do homework. The food is ok and nothing to mention too much about. This review is on service not the food. Today they undercharged me for a medium salad instead of a large salad. This was The waiters error which is very minor.
I refused to re-​swipe my card and told them to take care of it…2 dollars btw. When i came back for my food the manager had cash ready for a refund and told me to go pay for a large salad. I left the salad and took what i paid for without any hesitation and too many words. With a big company like this that speaks volumes. To whomever was the supervisor on presidents day 4pm you need to know how the service industry work or you should not be a manager.
It will make me think twice about eating in panera from now on.

Clean, roomy booths, hazelnut coffee, breakfast sandwiches… super great place to study and hang out and have a casual conversation. They have a lot of seating here.
I would’ve liked if the customer service was better and that they carried soy milk. They have white egg sandwiches but not soy milk?
When I came here there were a lot of families, their kids, and people working or on their laptops. Kids can sometimes pound on your booth chair’s back since some are arranged back-​to-​back.
The hazelnut coffee was on point and the best part of the power sandwich was the crispy bread. The menu they have also lists the calories in case you’re calorie conscious.
If you order «for here» they bring your food to you at whatever table you are sitting at.

I always feel weird reviewing major chains because they tend to rate right at 2.5 out of 5 stars by default, but I really do like this Panera location.
I’ve had consistently good experiences here, and I’ve even had experiences that made me take note of employee names (Eugene is a great employee, friendly and attentive in a way that just makes you feel important), and I think that’s worth mentioning.
Everything else is standard Panera fare, and yes, you might have to circle like a vulture for parking, but I’m happy to come back here every so often.

I’m not going to lie: I’m a fan of chain restaurants. I love Panera for its convenience and ease. They make it easy to order anything from breakfast to lunch or even dinner. My favorite sandwich is the Mediterranean egg white. I know, I could probably make this at home, but they make it so good here!
I don’t think there’s a bad bagel or pastry here. Soups and sandwiches are also awesome. And if you’re looking for a place to chill/​hang out, this fits the bill. Most Panera’s have just about the same set up, so you’re guaranteed consistency.
Definitely get the rewards card if you plan to frequent this place. I’m always getting half off or something I don’t need (like a yummy pastry) for free. They also give you a free pastry on your birthday (no need to use it on your birthday, either. It stays on your rewards account for awhile).

What can go wrong at Panera Bread? Nothing.
The staff are so friendly, do they take some happy drugs or something? Nonetheless, they’re very helpful and actually looked happy to be there and serve the customers. Place is very clean which is also a plus in my book. What’s better is that they have refillable coffee, the life!
This location also have do-​it-​yourself microwave which I’m quite fond of. A ton of seatings, inside or out. A good place for any meal.

Located in a plaza so there’s plenty of parking. I came here during prime dinner hours (6:30pm) and there was ample amount of seating available. You order at the register, you seat yourself and they give you your food when it’s ready.
I got a sandwich-​soup combo. I got the chicken tortilla which was too salty for my liking. The sandwich, a chicken panini, was greasy and not very appetizing as well. There wasn’t enough chicken and a boat ton of onions.

While in college, Panera bread was my jam. They provided me with delicious, healthier meals, than other «fast food» joints. When I found out a PB was opening near me, I was ecstatic!
This PB in Daly City is large, and very spacious with outdoor seating available. They have a wide variety to choose from, from sandwiches to soups, to salads, etc. My all-​time favorite panini was the chipotle chicken sandwich, but I’m sad to report that they have discontinued this. Moving forward for lunch or dinner, I love their broccoli-​cheddar soup, paired with the Cesar salad or the Cobb salad — you can also choose a complimentary side of chips (awesome), apple, or sourdough bread roll all for about $ 10ish dollars.
For breakfast, hands down, my favorite to order is the cinnamon bagel paired with the honey walnut cream cheese — SO SO SO GOOD!
I also love Panera because they have wide open spaces with spacious tables, to do homework at!
Highly recommend checking out Panera — and don’t forget to sign up for the rewards membership, it’s worth it!

This is definitely one of the nicer Paneras I’ve been to!
There is plenty of seating inside and outside and a lot of natural lighting. This place is perfect to grab a bite to eat with a friend or sip on a coffee or iced tea and read a book. I always come here to study because they offer free wi-​fi and there’s a lot of tables with outlets next to them!
The pastries here are delicious and they are offering a lot of pumpkin flavored items (pumpkin spiced muffin, bagels, etc.) for the Fall season. You’ll get good service here (they bring your food to your table) and if you sign up for a rewards card, you can get a free pastry.
I mostly come here for the pastries and drinks but I’m slowly trying all of the items on the menu. They offer healthier food options than most restaurants in the plaza that tastes pretty good!
Overall, come to this Panera if you’re looking for a nice place to study and grab a pastry while you’re at it!

I love this panera bread! If you’re going to get coffee in this plaza, come to panera instead of Starbucks. The people are nicer and the service is better. The staff is so friendly, even at 7 in the morning. Plus the pastries are so much better! My favorite drink is the caramel latte with whip. It’s sooooo good!
The ambiance is really nice too. It’s so spacious and there are so many tables. I like coming here if I have to be in the area because I can just hang out and work on stuff since there’s free wifi too. It’s a cool place to be if you need a place to work or study!
On top of all that, the other food items are also great. The bread, the soups, the soups in bread, the salads, the sandwiches, etc. etc.– all delicious! Definitely a good place to eat.

First time at this location I had ordered my egg and ham soufflé online for about $ 4.00 to pick up on 8am on Sunday. I arrived at the store and it was nice, bright and new looking. Not crowded since so early in morning. The staff was cleaning and preparing for the day. Yes, like other reviewers I was confused in where to go. I ran into a lady that i perceived as the manager where I told her I was my first time here and wanted to know where to the pick up shelves were for my food and how to pick up a Panera frequent buyer card and pick up my free pastry. She explained to me how the card works. She was very nice and friendly. Nice location and they had outdoor seating.
Sorry no photo this time because I was too hungry. But in presentation and taste I would rate it okay/​good. I didn’t have the same WoW factor when I was first introduced to it in Novato, CA about 4 months ago. It didn’t have the plump, crispy and juiciness texture that I was expecting from the egg, ham and pastry shell, but it was still tasty. The one in Novato seemed more plumper or fuller in texture. Hard to explain. You can view my previous raving review at the Novato location. I know this is a new location that just opened and they probably need time to find their footing. Overall I had a good experience. I would return at a much later time to try their egg soufflé again and the lunch salad menu.

Come earlier beware the parking gods.
This particular bread factory is clean it’s new and it’s shiny. It has a fireplace inside. Areas clean inside and out even the bathrooms. The food is wonderfully fresh.
Whoever designed this particular Panera had the right idea. Outside seating, heat lamps.
Paging system needs a little improvement. Training will take a little time with new employees. Some of the English skills of new employees need help. Overall a good experience good food easy parking.
So come to this Panera bread.
