Panera Bread in E-City, 27909 zip FOOD: over priced chicken soup : 12/03/25 Wednesday The chicken noodle soup is basically out of a can, quality and the amount in a cup(only filled half way)is not worth it( $5 + ? cents near $6). It would be a next level or better if a creamy chicken noodle soup with more noodles & meat could replace current.… there’s a special brand that actually fulfills this purpose…. Not sure if allowed to mention it but it’s, “Progresso, and “ Campbells.” Just a new improved selection to replace the current selection…. Would be awesome and although I’m just one person, I’d be delighted to update my review if this is seriously considered and changed. See photos attached of the meal we experienced recently. Just beware future customers if you decide on their current

When I am able to actually have my order filled, the food is fabulous. But, if you are looking to have anything of the baked good variety (including just about any bagel) you are most likely going to be highly disappointed, because those items are NEVER available past morning hours. Which is quite the shame, seeing as how they are currently promoting new bagel stacks. The other day, they were even out of the baguettes that accompany soup.

Decent atmosphere. The kid at the register was a little rude, they don't greet you when you enter the facility. The kitchen staff was very talkative amongst themselves and rather loud. Do not recommend the chai tea latte, it was spicy. Yes it's a spiced chai tea latte but all you get is heat, no other flavor. Kids like the flatbread pizza and broccoli soup. Overall it's good food. Staff needs work.

4 stars since we tried the curbside pickup one day and we got our food immediately but the next day, we had to wait in the drive thru. On the day that we did curbside pickup, the drive thru line was really busy and had a lot of people in the line and the line seem like it was not moving at all; next door at chick fil a, line was not moving too and it was a lot of people waiting. The next day, we wanted to go to chick fil a but there was a long line around chick fil a, so we decided to do the drive thru at panera bread because it was no line at all. We still had to wait 5 minutes or more for our food in/at drive thru. Food was good but the wait and drive thru line is not good. Our children ate the kids turkey and cheese sandwich. The chicken sandwich and apple salad were good as well.

Ordered to go tonight a full soup and full sandwich to split between my son and I....and my husband got a sandwich. We spent over $25 to recieve bread with condiments... the one sandwich had maybe a bite chicken on it....
