Panera Bread

It’s a great and well‑loved place for family get‑togethers. The photo shows that the main parking area can get crowded, but there’s a convenient overflow lot right next door

The food tastes very good but multiple times we have had mistakes in our orders and had to drive back to the store to get the right items (for example ordered a chicken noodle soup and received a broccoli cheddar - could not tell it was wrong until I opened it to eat, and I can’t eat dairy). Also, we often have to wait 10-20 minutes past the promised pickup time. They usually add a reward onto the app for us, but it’s something small like a discount on a bakery item, and it feels more like an attempt to get us to come back rather than an apology. To sum up, their marketing phrase “order ahead on our app and skip the line” is not true. I will note that the employees are working very hard but the restaurant needs to compensate by hiring more staff or adjusting the promised wait times. Tonig

Panera Bread has significantly declined in quality and service, based on a recent visit to their Exton location. The once-reliable fast-casual spot now relies solely on impersonal kiosks for ordering, eliminating the option to interact with a staff member at the front counter. This automated system didn't translate to faster service; our order of two "Pick Two" meals and a mac and cheese took an unreasonable 25 minutes to arrive. Adding to the unpleasant experience, we were forced to clean our own table, and the visible grime on the air vents was concerning. While the food itself was acceptable, it wasn't enough to compensate for the numerous issues. Overall, this experience fell far short of previous Panera standards.

Located inside strip mall closer to giant and other good food options in Exton. This Panera bread is good and with recent upgrades they are easy to order. The food is always delivered fast and hot. I like their broccoli cheddar soup, tomato soups. The sandwiches are good but okay for vegetarians. Have tried their beverages and they are okay. The portions are small but they look fresh and tasty too. Interior is good and service is awesome. Parking is cramped but park opposite and walk here.

Easily accessible location, with enough parking spot. Clean and well maintained store. Food service was fast , tasted good, except the person on POS was not pleasant enough or not friendly. We came here for breakfast and we lost of our good mood on his behavior. We ordered pick 2 for grilled cheese , chipotle avacado chicken , grilled chicken with avacaodo, egg and cheese with caffe latte. Food was on our table within 5 min , we enjoyed the food , coffee cup lid was broken and staff did not bother to change until we noticed the spill on our dress 😏. Otherwise should we come back again , yes we consider this one time and will come again.
