This location seems to be lacking a bit. Sandwiches seem sloppily made with not as much filling either. If I'm spending $8 on a sandwich I really prefer to have a good amount of stuff between the bread. I know it can be fuller and taste better like other locations. I sure hope they improve! read more

So, currently writing this in kneeders. We've been here for what seems like forever (we all know the mountain of work that goes into a salad, not to mention two!) First we went to the drive though (for the first half of eternity) just WAITING to place our order! We noticed the line was crazy long and taking forever, it seemed like no one was working the window! There weren't signs up or anything! Each customer had waited several minutes for assistance but when it was our turn we waited outside the window yelling for assistance for about fifteen minutes! You could see the staff in there cleaning, an hour before closing time, ignoring everyone at the window! My husband was livid and fuming at how outrageously unprofessional the staff was. Everyone was being ignored! And the f*ck you cherry on top of it all was when the chick came back and called my husband (Jeff) Jasmine?? A woman called my husband Jasmine. It looks like a lazy revolt in there were all the employees decided to band together, not work, and ignore everyone. The entire staff needs to be replaced before I'll consider returning. This was mind blowingly bad. read more

The manager was the rudest lady! Ask what kind of dressings they had she told her trainee just a minute. Then they chose a dressing for me! I waited to get another order and the manager said just a minute! And they never did help us! So I said never mind and just left! I will never return there! Didn't receive the bread for the 3 soups ordered, didn't get the applesauce for the kids meal, didn't get the toy for the kids meal. Definitely not worth the money!!!! And gluten free choices are salad or salad they need to get with 2020 there are so many people with celiac disease!!! read more

Wow this Kneaders was disappointing. Every table was dirty, the floor with garbage on the floor and the long wait to get our food. Love Kneaders but won't come to this Provo location again. read more

I LOVE Kneaders Hot Chocolate!!!! That being said, I avoid this location because in the last several years in the numerous times (I'd guess 12 over last three years) their HC machine is broken. How is it that this problem isn't resolved? Seriously?! I have been disappointed for the last time. read more

Ah yes, Kneaders. There aren't many places in Utah county that just make you feel like you're at home other than Kneaders. The menu is simple, but the food is good. You can't go wrong with any of their sandwiches, really, but I find myself always coming back to the turkey ranch on a croissant roll. And the turkey cranberry salad is SO GOOD. Today I tried their chicken noodle soup. It was ok. They have better options though. Overall I would rate this place a solid B+. I really wish Yelp would allow you to do half stars. A 4 star rating might be too high, but I will never stop eating here. read more

Kneaders Bakery & Cafe - Chicken noodle soup with two slices of sour dough. Warms the soul, but they have better soup options. - Sandwiches Near Me - Provo, Utah

Sorry Kneaders, I wanted you to be better but this is the most generous I could be. The biggest problem Kneaders has is the disconnect between the story they are trying to tell and what you actually experience when in the bakery. They are trying to tell a quaint story of European artisan bread and processes, basic ingredients and, as it says on their website, their "italian hearthstone oven." That's not what I experienced. Their bread and pastries looks good enough on the solid wood shelving, the staff is nice, the signs look decent. But then there's the disconnect. They hide the artisan process that is supposedly taking place. Virtually all of the food preparation takes place behind a solid wall behind the cashiers. If the quality of your process is the basis of your whole story, why on earth would you hide it? Italian Hearthstone Oven? I asked about this, but the cashier I asked only seemed to think there were regular commercial ovens which she pointed to. They looked much like you'd find in a Subway. The ceiling lighting and paneling is the same kind you find in elementary schools and drab buildings--the speckled paneling interspersed with the tube lights hidden by rectangular plastic covering. The outside of the building conveys the sense that they built it as cheaply as possible. This all would be fine if they weren't trying to tell a story about artisanry and quality. I ordered the chicken artichoke panini. It was good, but unremarkable. Everything about it was decent, edible, satisfying, but had nothing which I would want to tell anybody about, and nothing that would bring me back. It laid on a bed of kettle-style chips dusted with Kraft-like parmesan cheese. I'm sorry to go on about this, but according to their artisan, authentic story, you would expect the chips to be prepared on sight, especially because they present them to convey the sense that they are. Not the case. The cashier said they simply come packaged and then they put their own parmesan on them. Perhaps I come off as a snob in this review, and perhaps I am. But what I want from a business--and all great businesses deliver on this--is that they align all of their elements to the story they are trying to tell. I like the story Kneaders story, it's just turns out to be inauthentic once you arrive. read more

This is probably my favorite place to get French toast! The bread is amazing and the syrup goes great with it. They also have fruit tarts, no where else makes them better. read more

Unlimited french toast for breakfast seems like a good deal until you find out how filling one plate can be. Really sweet french toast just the way I like it. It's a great way to end the date you started the night before. Just kidding, you horny kids. read more

Kneaders made me gain 30 lbs. No joke. First it was doing their French Toast breakfast every morning, because it really is THAT GOOD. Then I would go get a dessert or two to reward myself every once in a while. All of a sudden I was eating there for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And gaining a lot of weight. Beware: you want self-control if you go to Kneaders. My favorite items: French toast (duh), cream-cheese brownies, raspberry bread pudding, and the turkey sandwich on 12-grain bread. Oh baby. read more

I'm obsessed with their hazelnut bread. 5 stars just for that! Also their turkey avocado sandwiches are really good too (and even better if you get it on hazelnut bread. :) haha read more

Occasionally on some nice mornings, I decide to get my silly little booty our of bed and get some unlimited French Toast with the best tasting syrup in the world. I have never been so impressed with syrup. It is like the leprechaun's treasure hidden next to the pot of gold. There is nothing better than knowing your diabetes rates are going up because you are over eating for breakfast, but it is worth it because then I don't need to have lunch cuz my stomach be so full. I don't know people are complaining, but just go in the wee hours of the morning and get yo food and serve up. read more

I used to love their turkey sandwich but the turkey trips me out now. I swear it's the same canned turkey you buy from Costco and they always skimp you on it! And you pay a ridiculous price for it! I don't understand it. I love their specialty bread loafs and their fruit tarts though so I'll occasionally go for those. read more

Kneaders is good. This location is not the best. It's smaller and the service is not as friendly but it's still kneaders!

This place is the worst. Simple as that. Never go to this Kneaders. Go to river woods. My croissant doesn't even look like one. And my frozen hot chocolate was horribly made. No drizzle or chocolate chip and THE LONGEST WAIT EVER. Never going here again. Worst service and you're better off at all the other Kneaders locations which are always amazing. read more

Kneaders Bakery & Cafe - Sandwiches Near Me - Provo, Utah

See all

All I have to say is.... FRENCH TOAST! ok thats not all. I LOVE their turkey/bacon/avocado salad! I order it with spinach instead of mixed greens and the balsamic dressing. Also, the bread is something to write home about. Every time my mom visits from Texas we come here at least once a day. read more

For breakfast - Amazing french toast. Really. Amazing. It's all you can eat, comes with a side of fluffy whipped cream, strawberries, and a brilliant butter/syrup sauce. You can really only eat two or three pieces because they are so large, but it doesn't matter because it's priced competitively and fills you with delight. For lunch. Meh. I got a sandwich there once. It wasn't very good. Kinda dry. Really blah. read more

What are the critical elements of a casual sit down bakery? Well if you ask Corner Bakery, Panera Bread, or any number of other similar restaurant chains they'll all tell you that an atmosphere akin to Barnes and Noble and free WiFi is all you need to stay in business. Oh yeah, and some decent food ... maybe. But if you ask Kneaders, they'll tell you to put away you netbook and come with an empty stomach so you can focus on some delicious breakfast food, bread, and pastries. To put it bluntly, Kneaders is the gold standard for the genre. Now I've only been here for breakfast , which is why I can't quite hand out the fiver, but there's no doubt it was quality. Let us begin with the savory sweet delight that is the all you can eat french toast. From the moment I laid eyes on it I knew we were a match made in heaven. Light and fluffy but outrageously thick, the french toast went perfectly with the sides of whipped cream, strawberries, and buttery syrup. I should have gone back for more and had my wife stuff the extras in her purse. The sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich was no slouch either. The croissant roll was good enough to eat plain, and complimented the other ingredients extremely well. Definitely something I could order again. Kneaders, I have officially added you to my list of "must stops" for my next trip to P Town. Congratulations on a job well done (and thanks Devan R. for suggesting we go!). read more

Picked up some sourdough bread. Free samples! Pretty tasty. Small cafe for eating in, has a bistro feel. read more

Kneaders Bakery & Cafe - Sweet! - Sandwiches Near Me - Provo, Utah

Wow! Visiting Provo for the first time, my brother in law took me here for a late breakfast, just before the french toast ended. I'm not a huge french toast fan, but if all french toast was like this, I'd change my mind. The bread was thick and fluffy and the syrup was sweet! The french toast is all you can eat. I think you would be lucky to finish off more than two plates. If you do go for plate 2 or 3, make sure to conserve your homemade whipped cream and strawberries. You only get the french toast and syrup on your refills. Can't beat the price either. For 3 people, the breakfast was about $15. read more

Great desserts, Good breakfast, Good bread, Mediocre lunch. Kneader's is a staple at my workplace, so I will fully admit that perhaps I'm a little bit tired of the place. -the good- * Dessert - any dessert I've had has been everything I would expect from a bakery style food establishment. Great tarts, eclairs, brownies, and very good key-lime pie. * Breakfast - The french toast itself is good (nothing extraordinary). The syrup, berries and cream that they serve with it are fantastic. I frequently get their croissant sausage egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches. * Drive-Thru - I don't eat much "fast-food" but I love the concept of being able to muddle about the house on a Saturday morning in my underwear and hop in the car when I'm hungry for a quick bit to eat. -the bad- * The sandwiches - meat is dry and bland (especially the chicken). They have good-quality ingredients that are frequently combined in uninspired and unappealing ways. I frequently feel sick to my stomach after eating these sandwiches. My go-to menu item: Key Lime Tart / Mint Brownie (no it doesn't taste like the BYU mint brownies thank goodness) read more

Kneaders seems to be a household name in Utah, it is fairly good. The pricing is ok, if you get a special it could be worth it (I.e. All you can eat French toast on Saturday mornings) but it is not anything crazy special. The employees are ok, there is one really good girl who works the drive in the morning at their location in Provo by the hospital. I have never been impressed with the management who always seem to be rash. It's also always packed on the weekends so just be ready. read more

Super slow. No sense of time or urgency. I ordered one sandwich (panini) took them 20 minutes to make and by the time I received it my soup and sandwich were cold. I went inside to eat. There was no line inside. And even after I ordered maybe 2 or 3 other people walked in. Love Kneaders but they make it not worth the wait read more

Mmmm mmmm. This is the best breakfast in town. It's somewhat pricey though but still reasonable. Their pastries and desserts look delicious. Their French Toast is their specialty and definitely worth it. My one issue is they crack down hard on sharing food. My wife and I go there, I will order a breakfast sandwich and she gets the french toast. They're the same cost. I finish my sandwich and she finishes hers but I'm still hungry. I go to get a free refill on her french toast for me and they always throw a fit. In fact, one time an employee came to our table and told me I wasn't allowed to share. I think that's over the top. Good food though. read more

I like this little sandwich shop, especially the pastries. I am not a fan of their in house potato chips, they are always stale, and the pickles are too salty (though I appreciate that they are dill, not sweet). I especially like their rueben on rye and tuna on hazelnut 12 grain though I could go for a lot less sauce in the tuna. Their other pastries are good, but in a basic, lots of cream and butter, sugar and love sort of way. No nuance, mostly comforting baked goods. And who can say no to their all you can eat french toast with cream and a strawberry? Literally, one strawberry. I have had a few occasions of bad service, mostly forgetfulness or little things that were fixed quickly. The worst being that they took almost 30 minutes after I had arrived at the store to make a sandwich I had preordered over the phone. I've also had a cinnamon roll they heated up, obviously in the microwave, exa use it turned crispy and hard and I edible after a few minutes. And the drive through takes forever. read more

Working close to this particular Kneaders is nice. I really like the Turkey Cranberry Salad. Most times, I use the drive-thru. One particular day, I went inside. The line was a little long, so I had time to admire the awesome pastries in the window. Here's the thing. This place is so dirty inside! The walls, the floor, the serving area and the tables! I was so grossed out that I decided to just go somewhere else. Please clean your restaurant! I will not be going to this place again. VERY dirty. read more

Brother in law took me here the first time and came back with family. Very solid menu of tasty sandwiches. Only bummer was I wanted pastrami on one of the visits and they were out. Free bread samples by the register. Friendly, informed staff and plenty of delicious looking baked goods to take home. They even have drive thru for those in a hurry. read more

This Kneaders has THE WORST service. I got in line after 2 cars. There were 2 cars ahead of me, and I was going to order a hot chocolate. I thought it would be quick, because like I stated, there were 2 cars ahead of me. I got to the place to order, and a car pulled up behind me. I was then informed the machine was broken. I didn't want to order anything else, so I needed up being stuck in the line. I thought it couldn't take too long, because I was in a drive through (which is supposed to be fast) and I had only 2 cars ahead of me. I was wrong. I waited in the drive through line for a total of 23 minutes. 23!!!!!! That is unacceptable for a drive through. I called the store at 15 minutes in line to ask if they could have the two people ahead of me wait in the parking lot for their orders and they could bring it out to them so I could get out of the line, and their response was, "no, we can't do that, because it's just not something we do." McDonald's has better service than these people. Chic-fil-A has better service. I will NEVER come back here again. If you come here, be warned that your wait time will be as if you went to a sit down restaurant, so if you're in a hurry, then do not go here. I ended up missing the appointment I had to get to, because the service here is just the worst. They could have done something to get me out of the line, they just wouldn't. Even if I didn't have somewhere to be, to wait that long for anything in the drive through is absolutely asinine. Just take my word for it and go somewhere else, it is not worth it. read more

I had lunch here today. Some turkey sandwich with cheese and tomato on a cheesy foccasio (I probably killed the spelling) bread. Pretty plain but that was why it was so good. Fresh, clean, not complicated. DID NOT notice the "fly problem". read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE Kneaders. I mean, drive-through paninis, bread bowls, mexican hot chocolate, desserts, etc.? And the bottomless French toast is really great, too. I try to stop by whenever I'm in town. Oh, and the bread. Don't even get me started on the bread. SOOOOO GOOOD. read more

All 3 stars are because of the French toast. The service is okay. But anything you order is too bland, in my opinion. I wish they'd use more spices in their sandwiches, soups, and everything else. But again, the French toast is the redeeming factor. read more

Kneaders makes me happy. I don't give out five stars very often, but this place really deserves it, even if they have mistaken mayo for ranch dressing a few times to put on my turkey ranch sandwich. Their sandwiches are fresh and so good. I always order either the turkey or roast beef ranch sandwich on focaccia - and they know how to make that sandwich right. The turkey isn't deli slice, but just like the turkey that you have left over from Thanksgiving that you love to put in a sandwich....so good. The ranch that they put on the sandwich is awesome as well. Oh! And on certain days of the week they serve cheese and broccoli soup,which is incredible. I love getting a sandwich with a cup of soup - perfect combination. Some of the items on the menu are really inventive, though I stick to what I love and can never fail me. Oh, and the desserts are killer. The macaroons are incredible and not too expensive. The eclairs are super moist and tasty as well. You know you love a place when your review essentially consists of what you enjoy to eat there and not an experience that deemed more memorable than the food. If it's after work, don't go through the drive-thru. It'll take you a bit longer than if you walked inside, and more than likely you have some idiot who's ordering for his whole family, but can't decide what he wants to get them and then has to get specialty orders for each kid. Yeah, that happens to me a lot. If you go inside to order, you can munch on some free bread while you wait and peruse which dessert you want to try...win win. Oh! One more thing. They have unlimited french toast and pancakes in the morning. While I can't eat much in one sitting, the french toast is so good, and so fresh. The slices are huge as well - it's like texas toast used for french toast - what does that make it, French-Tex Toast? read more

Breakfast at Kneaders really hits the spot, especially for a starving college student or anyone interested in some excellent french toast. It's always fresh and delicious. I had never used the menu until my last year in Provo and discovered that pretty much everything here is as good as their french toast. The sandwiches and soups are really tasty. This is the best "fast-food" place in Provo. read more

Came for the unlimited french toast on the Saturday before finals. The place was packed, but our order was ready before we even filled our water cups. Food was good, only one cup of whipped cream & strawberries though. Definitely give yourself time to go back for seconds or thirds, and don't bring a date with a small stomach (I wanted to go back for more). read more

I waited 20 minutes for a cookie and a steamer. I didn't end up getting it I decided to just have them refund me my money because I didn't want to sit and wait any longer then I already had, but the machine for the steamer was "broken". Yeah I guess I came pretty late in the night 8:30 to be exact come to think of it I waited half an hour instead of 20 minutes. This location is also so freaking small and falling apart I'm surprised it hasn't collapsed yet! I love kneaders it's one of my favorite restaurants but the Provo-bulldog location I will never go to I refuse to after this. It's dingy disgusting I would rather drive further away next time, to one I know is actually of decent size so me and the other customers that happen to be in there aren't climbing all over each other. And maybe they can learn and once they clean the machine and turn it off for the night let all your co workers know! That way when someone goes to order it you can tell them "it's broken" and you save the customer the fuss of waiting 30 minutes for nothing!! read more

The food tastes okay from here. But my little family was literally the only people there and every damn table was dirty-I ended up cleaning one off with napkins and water from the soda dispenser. The girl taking my order was sucking down a soda while she helped me. The flies were TERRIBLE! Bathrooms were disgusting. I love Kneaders, but they need to burn this one down and start over again. This location gives Kneaders a bad name. read more

I went here with my two best friends for lunch today. The only reason why I'm giving it two stars is because the food tasted great. But, I was so disappointed in the service we received. We repeated our order several times and after the girl at the window said it back correct we moved forward to the window. Our order was still incorrect and missing items. She handed my friend our soft drink. It was only half way full. We asked of someone could please fill it up. The girl at the window REACHED INTO OUR CAR AND SNATCHED IT OUT OF HER HAND. Eye rolls and everything. Upon handing it back, it spilled all over her hand. Would have been fine...just wipe it up, you know? Our order didn't have napkins either or anything. Very disappointed. read more

I'm convinced kneaders is all about what you like and what you order. Since people live the salads but I ding the average and bland. The sandwiches are good. But very bread-heavy and pretty average. As a bakery it's really great. And the French toast breakfast is really amazing. Overall though, it's average, and overpriced for it. read more

The first thing that you need to know about kneaders is their bottomless French toast breakfast. It's around 7 dollars if I remember correctly but it is quite delicious and it's served in a semi casual environment so they'll bring you your food and bus your table but it's not full service. The Provo location is extra busy though and often the service is minimal. For lunch or dinner they have great bread bowl soups and their sandwiches are pretty good as well. They do a great job filling the niche of cafe/bistro and are comparable to panera bread if your from out west. read more

The slowest service ever. They were out of everything. There are speaker at their drive-up window didn't work.
