Panera Bread

Placed an order for the last two remaining pastry items four hours in advance upon arriving to the store. I was informed that they were sold 10 minutes ago. That’s the only reason why I placed an order online was to secure. Lost a customer

I went for lunch. When more than 2 people were in line the manager went to register to help and was very friendly. Food was delicious as always! I appreciated the wifi as we are in a campground just now without any and I needed to get some work done.

Late lunch on a Monday. Decided on Panera as a change from typical fast food.plenty of parking. Short line at order station but 7-10 people waiting for food.simple menu with a variety of sandwiches, salads, soups and specialty drinks. Placing the order was easy. It took 20 min for the food to show up. The soup and sandwich was a nice change from burgers. But The sandwich toppings were evenly spread over the bread but the meat was a big roll in the middle so it was an uneven taste experience. And somehow two $6.50 soup and sandwiches ended up costing $35. So while it wS a change, it came at a cost.

For the first time since started frequenting Panera bread which has been well over 10 years, yesterday I purchased the steel cut oatmeal with the strawberries & brown sugar topping. I have had this oatmeal probably well over 500 times over the course of the times I have gone to this restaurant. Yesterday, my oatmeal wasn't done it was watery like soup and Luke warm. I am not sure what was going on with the oatmeal, it has never been that consistency when I would get it any other time. I know how it comes packaged into the store and I know that they put the package in the microwave to heat it up for I do believe is 3 minutes and then they pour it into the bowl and put the topping on it. I took it back up to the counter and told them that it was not done and could they fix it. So they took

I was vibing with the atmosphere today. Positive attitudes. Seems like the orders were getting out in a timely manner as there wasn't a mob of people in front of the pickup counter blocking the drink station. Manager/Supervisor kicked it up a notch by making a round asking if the customers were satisfied. Switched it up and tried a new salad. It was great.
