This has always been one of my favorite Panera Bread stores. Besides the food which was totally delicious, I love the turkey and cheese, the flavor and texture of the sandwich makes my mouth water. Added to that one of my favorite Panera Bread soups The French Onion. All the Panera Bread Stores sell exactly the same food however what other store's don't have is Carter. One of the managers Carter is an excellent employee who has the best customer service skills and is great at double tasking and if fast and correct in all the order's to make sure no customer has too wait too long. Panera Bread try to have more employees like Carter and that will be beneficial for the Panera brand. read more

On a Friday morning the Panera is busy. Groups of aunties and uncles all hanging out chatting up a storm. Everyone have there favorite corner to sit and circle their wagons. The space is a large at this location. They even have a private room near the back. Food is popular and good as always. Service is fine and the decor is standard "Panera." I think the food is better then that other coffee house across the parking lot. read more

Been here numerous times to meet up with friends for lunch and just to go shopping. The Panera Bread at Bay Terrace Shopping Center is always filled with patrons. Definitely, feel like I'm at a shopping mall. There was a long line of patrons waiting to place orders. I used the kiosk for the very first time. Just place your order at the kiosk and then go wait for your order as they staff prepare meal. Was not a long wait to get prepared meal. Lots of chairs and tables to sit and enjoy your meal. Will definitely start using the kiosk to place orders. Been ordering food to go on numerous visits. It's a quite a drive to get home and the sandwiches were still piping hot. Tip- Sign up and join MyPanera to get rewards and discounts. Went for the BOGO5 which was buy a sandwich get the second sandwich for $5 bucks. There are many promotions going on all the time. Looking forward to a dine in experience the next time around. read more

Never ever go here! Ever! I ordered at 12:33 and never got a text telling me my order was ready. It was busy and I went to the counter inquiring about my order at 1:15 to which they said it's been sitting there. I was on the back corner so how would I know THAT IS WHY THEY HAVE THE TEXT! I told them I wanted a refund which they gave to me 15 minutes later. No sorry, no offer of anything. The Manager should be FIRED! Absolutely ridiculously if I could give it a 0 star rating I would. I've been to Panera hundreds of times NEVER EVER AGAIN! read more

Food is good, but the service and mobile order system are consistently frustrating. The 'skip the line' promise doesn't match reality. Hope management improves staffing and speed during peak times. read more

This is the most appalling experience! I called the store to speak with a manager and she refused to hear my story. I ordered a salad without chicken - the salad was half empty! Really? I asked for more beet strips, hardly there! I called to speak to the manager and i was told to call back at 3PM. Really? I called back. The person who claimed to be the manager said that I had to call uber eats and refused to speak to me!! Who filled the order? Uber eats or Panera? Uber eats delivers! My receipt did not reflect the price I paid! Unbelievable!! read more

There are ALWAYS mouse droppings on the floor by the soda machine and the bathroom. I told a manager twice and she told me it was just dirt. I can't walk in there anymore read more

We used the app and ordered in advance, our lunch was ready and perfect. I enjoyed my salad the Avocado, eggs, chicken, tomatoes & cilantro dressing were fresh, well mixed & cut into bite-size pieces that I enjoyed. My husband enjoyed his chicken salad sandwich with a bag of chips on the side. It's a good fast clean and fresh stop when we're on the road. Unfortunately there's always a line to get in, a wait for a table and today a long line for the ladies room because their staff were in the stalls on the phone. read more

This Panera Bread was located inside of Bay Terrace Shopping Center at the lower level. Less than a 5 minutes drive or a 15 minutes walk from my house. There was already a long line formed when I arrived at 1:15 pm for lunch today. I ordered the Sausage & Pepperoni Flatbread Pizza and half of the Grilled Mac & Cheese Sandwich. Woohoo, I redeemed my $15 gift card. The wait wasn't too long for my take-out. Food: Sausage & Pepperoni Flatbread Pizza - *hubba hubba* I am in carnivore heaven Grilled Mac & Cheese Sandwich - nothing special Here are my favorites Pumpkin Pie Bagel, Spinach & Bacon Souffle, Pumpkin Muffin, Mango Smoothie, etc. I love, love, love Panera Bread so much! read more

Always very crowded but they get your order right and that's the most important I love all there soups and the bathroom is clean

Grabbed food here and got my usual Green goddess cob salad with chicken and broccoli cheddar soup while my boyfriend got the fuji apple salad with chicken and smoky buffalo chicken melt. We didn't know the smoky buffalo chicken melt was a hero. We had to split it to 2 pieces and share it. Their baguettes are delicious. I love how I can get a free small cup for water because you know it's pricey here. Nevertheless I love eating panera food. read more

Wow, location of this Panera is great. I'd never been to this shopping mall before, and it is a great one. Huge plus. The Panera itself has a ton of space and seating inside, much more than any other branch I've been to. Small plus. Unfortunately, the dark roast was filled with coffee grinds, which was unpleasant to drink. Huge negative! The service was also so unfriendly! I prefer the Douglaston staff by miles, but the girl who helped me at this location gave off pretty bad energy. Small negative. read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Bayside, New York

It's been a long while since I've eaten here... Ordered a pick 2 salad and sandwich. Ordered this Napa almond chicken sandwich on ciabatta bread. They gave me sourdough bread instead. I brought it back to the counter and explained I ordered it on ciabatta. The ignorant guy preparing the food actually said it was ciabatta. If it looks like sourdough taste like sourdough, smells like sourdough...chances are it's sourdough... If Panera's staff doesn't know the difference... That's just sad... He offered to replate it on another sourdough bread lol read more

I come here every other Saturday afternoon. I mean, for a chain restaurant it's not terrible! It's mostly clean, consistent and they allow you to sit there for a long time without bothering you. The salads are fresh and the sandwiches are hot...it's spacious and convenient. Not sure why there needs to be such high expectations for "fast food" read more

Panera Bread - Fresh food - Sandwiches Near Me - Bayside, New York

This visit is not like my ordinary visit so I'm basically rating this visit. I got a warm bowl which was not really warm. The cashier did a wonderful job with suggestive selling in this one. He didn't mention there was corn in the meal and the chicken soup seemed like it had corn. That's fine if you eat corn. I came here to study, this is why I gave two stars. This place is noisier than the Mets stadium when they are up by one point. It's nice if you are relaxing and want to watch the elderly play board games or watch the teens carry on with their shenanigans. I won't come back here to study but I'll come back to eat. read more

This place is a hit or miss. Sometimes the food is fresh and hot and other times they will serve the food cold. Today I came in with my family for an early dinner and both of my family members received a cold soup and a cold sandwich. When they went to change their order, they were told that their food temperature was fine. They finally decided to change the order but in the meantime the supervisor, Katy was yelling at her employees in front of us which made us feel uncomfortable. When the supervisor noticed I was talking about her to my family member, she came at me and asked me "do you have something to say" in a very nasty attitude and I told her I did have something to say, I said her attitude was disgusting and that she shouldn't be talking to customers like that if she is a supervisor. Her attitude was threatening and unprofessional. Panera, do better with your customer service. read more

I have never been to this location without them being out of stock of at least one item I am craving. They always fail to order the correct amount of food for their hungry customers. You would think Panera bread would be in stock of bread but maybe that's just my high expectation. The drink station is always messy or lacking the appropriate beverage lids. Once I even saw a patron stick his index finger in the top opening of the green tea vat to give it a sampling thus contaminating the entire batch. After said gentlemen fingered the green tea I witnessed another shapely hunched over man fill his cup up and enjoy the extra flavor. Plenty of parking. Staff is always rude and not helpful. It's almost like we are a bother to them. Some frizzled haired gentlemen always seems to be there not purchasing anything and sipping his outside coffee. They should crack down on the free loading seat takers since seating is always lacking. The extra seating is always closed due to staff not wanting to clean it seemingly. Food is standard since it's the same at every location. read more

One of my favorite meals of all time is the Panera Bread Pick Two. The combo varies with sandwiches, salads, and soups but the main items that are always a good pair are the broccoli cheddar soup and asian sesame chicken salad. The salad box was super clean with nice presentation but the salad dressing was too small. I tried the broccoli cheddar Mac and cheese and although the Mac was smooth and soft, the broccoli cheddar soup tastes a lot better with a side baguette. There is quick pick up parking located in front of the restaurant. Everyone has their temperature taken upon entering. The pick up stations are behind the counter and and associate needs to be called to pick up the order. The online ordering was efficient and the orders were made in only 10 minutes- super fast. read more

I am a regular at Panera and absolutely love it. But I was served severely undercooked, nearly raw chicken in my salad. Manager denied, told me it was "normal" and gave me a refund. I said, it's normal to serve raw chicken in your salads? "Yes, it's normal, we serve raw chicken in our salad." Poor customer service with clearly no regard for supply chain issue (as Panera chicken is pre-cooked) or customer safety in what they serve. read more

Been eating here over 7 years, love this place . But Today for 1040am pickup place onine , this place was complete mayham. I wanted to buy a bag of cookies but the line was all way to the door because there was only 1 register open. The pick up was not ready till 1050am even tho they emailed us it was ready. Order $ 19, Baja Bowl with Chicken with Extra Avocado with No Red Grape Tomatoes with Extra Chicken,  Broccoli Cheddar Soup French Baguette. I drive all the way home to find out there was 0 chicken. And a rip open bag chips all over the bread . Drove all the way back to get a refund of $19 and some bread, obviously ate lunch elsewhere . And I forgot my kids still didn't get Chips. The manager was nice and apologize. Just a refund on the salad wasn't fair because wasted a lot time & gas going there again. read more

FYI/Reminder: Clam Chowder soups Friday ONLY!! I came in so close to their closing time, almost 10PM tonight and thought I wouldnt be able to place an order, however to my surprise, Very friendly staff and their summer lobster is back in full effect , totally love them lol yes, they placed my dinner order and with a smile too. And they always have the self service, unlimited drink refills so can't really go wrong there (smoothie doesn't apply, best to ask prior to ordering if that's your goal) I ordered the lobster roll with their pick two options so I can get part of a salad with my sandwich. The lobster roll is paid at full price so I got the whole sandwich and not their half and half thing for this pick two offer. The lobster roll consisted of mostly claw meat, no tail parts of the lobster from all of my ordering of this sandwich in various locations. I've always enjoyed their salads, since it's the only place that never left a bad impression when I order grass...what's tricky is their specialized dressingper salad, since not even their staff could really say how each tasted or varied but they did let me pick a backup option free of charge. Their salads are always in generous portions and their not light handed with their bacon bits, chicken, or whatever meat in there. There's nothing like over paying for grass and be extra hungry too cause they dont give you your money's worth, never had that problem with this franchise. Due to my recent dining companion, I've had a taste for chocolate here and there...so a brownie was purchased tonight, rich in flavor and the fudge on top almost made me think it was a cake when I opened the paper box. Lastly, want to acknowledge their packaging for take out, never a mess and always nicely sorted in their packing and bagging of foods. No spills and no mess! Only con tonight was their system was down, so they couldn't register my points to the Panera card so I have to do that manually later on my own through their app. However, it doesnt occur often, so no biggie. read more

This location of Panera is located in the Bay Terrace Shopping Center. There is ample free parking, They have both regular registers where u go up, place your order, and pay to an employee. They also have fast kiosks where you go to the several kiosk stations go through and pick out what you want and pay. After you place order, you go to the pickup counter to either get the "to go" or "to stay" items you chose. There is a seating area and even a small private room you can rent for a business/ private meeting. The food is delicious and its very convenient if you are looking for a healthier type of food option but don't want to sit and wait in a restaurant. I had a salad with grilled chicken, avocado, grated cheese, Caesar dressing, and croutons and it was delicious. They tend to go very light on the dressing so I would recommend asking for some extra on the side. The broccoli cheddar soup is delicious and creamy and perfect for fall and winter months. This location is quite clean and employees truly keep up to cleaning tables between people sitting. Overall, good food and good service. read more

The food is always good but most times they are sold out of popular items. The ambiance is that of Penn Station, it's safe to say that 3/4's of the tables are taken up by people not eating or drinking but just socializing. The employees are always pleasant. The restaurant would get better reviews if they put a time limit on the amount of time able to be spent sitting at the tables. I am changing my rating to 1 star, there is a lack of food safety due to the fact that the food is put on the counter and other customers are able to literally Hoover over the food breathing their disgusting germs on it. That should be a board of health issue! read more

I never have an issue with this place. I always order through the app and my order is always ready when I show up. It's hot and the baguette size is always generous. I don't deal with the staff as I'm usually in and out. Today was not a good day. I ordered a chicken noodle soup bowl. It was ready within 5 mins of ordering. I grab it and get all the way back to work to eat my soup and it's friggen tomato soup! I double checked the receipt on the bag to make sure I didn't grab the wrong order. But no, it was most certainly my order and it said chix nood soup. So I had to wait until I left work to return the food since I'm allergic to tomatoes. When I tell the cashier she was so rude and unapologetic. She treated me like I was the one who messed up! She handed the bag off to another worker and said you have her the wrong soup then asked if I wanted to keep it. No! Give me what I paid for! After that I was honestly disappointed they didn't try to makeup for the inconvenience. Typically when a food establishment fucks up they offer something complimentary. I will be back but I'll have to make sure to check my bag before driving away. read more

Vaccine card is needed to dine in. My husband and I always love Panera Bread. And we have been happy coming to this location. The manager (person in charge of food preparation) seems very organized. First time a guy and second time a lady. We got the wrong sandwich the first time and they apologized and made a new one. The manager even brought the sandwich over himself. The female manager is quick, friendly and welcoming. We will definitely come back! read more

I normally like Panera Bread, but my most recent experience at the Bayside location was not good at all. I walked in to place an order, and there was a line snaking around the store. I ordered an Iced Tea, and a Napa Chicken Salad sandwich. After twenty minutes I asked the cashier if the sandwich was coming, and she replied "we are having problem's with pos system, and it will be out shortly." After another ten minutes I inquired again, this time I was told by the manager that it was on it's way. After forty five minutes total wait time I asked for a refund and left. The Mango Iced Tea was tasty though. read more

I love Panera, my husband on the other hand not so much. He typically doesn't have much luck with his orders, but I usually stick with my bagel and cc or my pick 2 Fuji apple chicken salad, no tomatoes/no onions, extra cheese/extra apples/extra dressing and broccoli soup. Now ordering that to go meh they usually mess it up or something. Was a little disappointed in the quality of the fruit salad we had gotten for my son. He loves fruit, but brown mushy fruit just doesn't really cut it and isn't something I really expect with Panera. read more

I went yesterday with my mom. First, I recommend everyone join free Panera's reward program. You get free items after a few visits. More visits more rewards. I bought one of their new pizza offerings, the cheese pizza for $5.99; it's the equivalent of two slices, I'd say. The pizza was 3 stars. I found it salty but plan to try the margarita and chicken pizza options another time at $9.99 each. I sat outside at a nearby table with mom and we each had a bowl of soup, because COVID. Her broccoli cheddar was 5 stars, she said and I thought my French onion was 5 stars also. The manager was working the resister and gave us bags of chips instead of bread, which was very nice of him. They have a deal going on for the holidays, for each $50 gift card, get a free $10 gift card to be used in January. I bought the gift card and used it to buy the soup and pizza. You can access the bonus gift card offer one line- also an e-card if that's your preference. I'll be back soon! read more

What happened to Panera!? I came to this location while waiting to watch a movie with my kids. Pretty busy but they have ample seating. Prices changed on the pick 2 items. Now each item has a separate price. Personally I don't think its worth it for what you get. Its ok, but nothing spectacular. I feel like the quality of most Panera's went down the past few years. I asked for a Vanilla Almond Milk Latte and rung me up and gave me a completely different drink. Even my kids mac and cheese didn't taste that great. Its like they just popped it and microwave and put in a bowl. They served it with an organic yogurt stick which was good. They should include a kids a drink with it also, which they don't. I might come back for breakfast like a bagel or pastry, but not impressed anymore. read more
