The service here was 10 out of 10. David, the manager here was an amazing host and great at what he does. He genuinely cares about people coming here and he brought us our food to the table. He was very kind. The food was okay. read more

This is my first time in San Hose, since I'm from New York. This, I kinda wanted to go somewhere special, unique but couldn't find so I just came to ordinary Panera. This is not ordinary Panera. I mean technically the food is supposed to be the same and so is the service. However, the server was much more friendly and actually "serving". Maybe it was the service but the creamy tomato soup I always have tasted better. The bear claw was all the same but it was great likewise. I don't regret coming here for my first breakfast in San Hose :) read more

Panera Bread - Bear claw - Sandwiches Near Me - Cupertino, California

I have been a customer for years and always enjoyed going to Panerai bread and.earning.loyalty rewards. However things have changed and it is time.tp bring my visits to a complete.end. Using the Pandemic for a lack.of.workers will not.fly with me. Panera still should hold.irs establishment to the highest of standards and provide good customer service. So many times since 2021 has my order been poorly made. Certain ingredients were often missing from my food orders, and during my last visit in January, I was treated rudely.by the worker working the window. Its sad but I shall never return and hope others will continue to visit them. I just.cant do it anymore! read more

I love Spinach Quiche, but it is often a rare find. I'd just ordered a simple turkey sandwich and then noticed Spinach Soufflé on the menu. I added that to my order and am oh-so-happy I did! The taste was perfect and really hit the spot. I've been to this location before, but today was something special. As I entered the restaurant the owner greeted me with a good morning and a smile. She spoke to the gentleman in line in front of me by first name and another customer as well (she obviously knows her regulars). I placed my order, received my to-go bag and upon leaving she called me by name wishing me a good day. I'm a stickler for good customer service and a pleasant dining/shopping experience, and here they give you both. The owner and staff are very friendly, happy to explain dishes & ingredients, and able to suggest options when you are unsure of what you'd like. I left there with a smile on my face, ready to take on my work day. I will definitely be dining there or getting their take out much more often. read more

I live in Redwood City and I drive to Cupertino just to make sure I eat at this location, food is always fresh, environment always peaceful and the service is GREAT!! Management is really impressive, Ajay does an incredible job in the way he runs the store, always patient, welcoming and understanding! Definitely becoming a member because of those facts!! read more

When Panera first opened I could get a very good Cinnamon Roll. Today I went by to grab 2. I was reminded why I quit going there. I paid almost $7 for 2 Cinnamon Rolls that were so small. I get better from Publix. I WILL NEVER GO BACK FOR ANY FOOD AT THAT PLACE !! The sad part is that I don't think they really care. read more

The food is decent for a change from your typical fast food meal. The pastas, soups, and sandwiches have all tasted good to me. Can't say I've had their bagels before, as I've heard bagels are like 5 pieces of bread in terms of carbs, so I try to stay away from bagels in general. Their breakfast sandwiches and bowls are great for when the Egg McMuffin isn't quite calling your name. Some of the family's favorites are apple crunch muffins, cobblestones, pecan braids, and frosted shortbread cookies. With that being said, I don't believe their pastries are "fresh made." Same goes with some of their other dishes. I think they are re-heated (this is with all Panera locations). That's not a big deal with me, just so long as I set my expectations that way. Still better than a Big Mac and large fries. I came in at 6am when they open and Perla helped me with a smile and was super friendly. This was before I took my pictures, so I know it was her being her! That's always a nice way to start a morning! read more

Went to the Balboa Avenue store today. Soup was.ok but lukewarm and th "bowl" entree was so terrible, I left most of it. I spent $18 on the worst food I've had for a long time. Waste of money. I would have been happier with a peanut butter sandwich. Will never go to this restaurant again. Should have thrown the $20 bill out of the car window. read more

This was my first time ever trying Panera Bread! I got Broccoli Soup and French Baguette(which comes with your soup). It should cost you around $7 dollars. Coming to Panera Bread for the first time, I wasn't sure what to order, but I was suggested by my girlfriend to try the Broccoli Soup with the French Baguette. Usually, I don't eat a lot of American soup but after having my first bite, I was surprised that the baguette complimented the soup so well!! Maybe I should start eating more soup! Even though it looked like a small portion of soup that you got, I believe it would fill you up for the price that you paid for. For the soup, it had a nice consistency of cheese and broocoli that was super tasty!! I don't think you would regret coming to Panera Bread in the first place! Wondering if I'll come back? Most definitely I'll come back!! No question about it. I didn't have any expectations coming in and it totally delivered on what American soup should be! If you're in the area and it is cold, try some Panera Bread because I recommend it! read more

I didn't really like Panera much before, but now that I know what to order, I love it! I usually get the "you pick 2" with Greek salad, either a sandwich or pasta, and bread. Even though the bread is plain, it's really good with butter! The panini's are good and the mac and cheese is creamy and thick. The Greek salad is really good and they give you a good amount, topped with feta cheese and pepper. Yumm. I got the Frontega Chicken panini today and it was DELICIOUS! It is a bit on the pricy side, especially if you're going in for lunch, but it definitely fills you up! read more

My wife went to Panera cafe in Cupertino and she order Asian chicken salad.look at the picture and see what she found in her meal.that is very disgusting.She called the manager and instead of apology he return her money.Money hand it to her by one of the employee.

Panera Bread - Discosting - Sandwiches Near Me - Cupertino, California

This was the worst Panera Bread I have ever been to. In fact it's actually sworn me off Panera's entirely. Panera has a soft spot in my heart as an old ex of mine adored it since it's from Stl. But sadly, that space is now gone. Ugh. Maybe I made the mistake of ordering the Bacon Turkey. Maybe there are better sandwiches out there. But the two thin slices of meat on my huge roll made me want to laugh hysterically when I received it. However I figured, what the heck so I tried it. And it was bad. I mean awful sandwich from a cart bad. The meat tasted bland and the chill made the taste even worse. I dunked the bread in the boy's soup so I could at least have SOMETHING in my stomach. Looking back I should have complained. But I'd been the one who convinced him to try Panera. And I couldn't remember what their policies on meat were since back in the day I usually ordered soup. But two tiny slices of meat on a HUGE roll do not equate an awesome sandwich. They equate an unhappy Meg. So yes. No more Panera. ...Oh hi Boudin, I've missed you. How're you doin? read more

I must say I am a fan of this location! I totally dig the Rapid Order option, I wish more restaurants would offer this! I use this for week night dinners far more than I should, but the convenience to the low calorie preparation is a win win for me, not to mention the amazing price! The you pick two is what I order for the most value! The only complaint I have is sometimes it is not consistent in regards to who works there, since sometimes when I order the pick two combos the portions are right, but sometimes I get the giant full size salad (which is not a bad thing, but I end up throwing out the other half as its just too much). Otherwise the ingredients are fairly fresh and I can't complain! They even call me when they can't satisfy an order and promptly change it! A lot of the times they will be out of the bottled lemonades and so they put in a San Pellegrino as a replacement which is awesome, they never charge me for the overage. The napkins, spoons, forks always in the bag! WIN WIN! read more

It's food and service are great. I particularly like their muffins and bear claws. Sandwiches for lunch are delicious.

My friend has a rule with their bread. Right out of the oven or it has a 5 min half life. Every min it's half as good. Heh. I generally dont go savory here. I get a cheese pastry normally but they were out. Got a cinnamon crumb cake instead and a lemonade to go. The cashier seemed to be confused as to which cake i wanted until i walked over and pointed it out. Pretty decent but ill stick to the pastry next time read more

Panera Bread - Sandwiches Near Me - Cupertino, California

I've been here a few times and haven't been too impressed. Its much like any other commercialized bakery....but the one on Steven's Creek is very cute, has nice outside seating and is pretty busy around lunch. I tried the Cobb salad.. no cheese, and I must say, it was one of the best Cobb's I've ever had. It comes with a vinaigrette dressing and is about 500 calories. I thought it was worth mentioning. My recommendation: Stay away from the pastries...just don't even look! :) read more

I came here to get lunch and try to get some work and trip planning done... I was pretty excited at first but it turned out to be a disappointing experience. I got a half sandwich (Sierra Turkey) and half soup (French Onion) combo with bread. The soup was pretty tasty but super super salty. Sandwich was kind of plain looking but it tasted pretty good. The soup ended up making me really really thirsty though... and drinking water only helped a bit. Ugh. In terms of studying/working here, there are a lot of tables, which is good. Most of them are big enough to do work on and aren't like normal tiny circular coffeeshop tables. It's also seems pretty quiet inside, especially during non meal hours. There aren't very many outlets here though. I think the only ones were in the corners where there are couches instead of tables and near the little bar area that only seats 3 people :( They have free wifi... but it's pretty slow... and the weirdest thing is that you can't access Yelp from their internet. Huh?!??? Why?? How am I supposed to plan a trip without using Yelp? It ended up being a pretty disappointing afternoon.. read more

Looked to order Panera and had they had no bread for sandwiches. Tough to order a sandwich with no bread. Ordered later that week on line and went to pick up as order was accepted. They said no order was taken and they were closed. Will look elsewhere for going forward. read more

WORST experience!! Ordered through Grubhub, Panera sends wrong item and manager yells at me when I called to complain and have it rectified. WORST customer service!! I will never eat at or order from Panera again. Not worth the aggravation of horrible service. read more

I like their bread bowls!! I ate lunch here for three consecutive days. First day, I was asked if I wanted to register a Panera card. Second day, I registered so I got a free coffee (w/ infinite refills). I must've drank 5 cups! Third day, I came here nonetheless if nothing but to abuse their complimentary wi-fi. I like Panera much better than Subway. It's like how Starbucks coffee is a better brand than McDonald's McCafes without the price jump. Panera's signature bread bowl is roughly the same price as Subway's $5 footlong, except I really cannot get used to Subway at all. And does Subway have free wi-fi? NO ;D Could Jared have lost 200+ lbs. by going to Panera everyday instead of Subway? I'm pretty sure he could've. :D I like this specific location! All the yuppies from Apple come here to talk business-related topics, I love it. My order is always ready within a minutes after I sit down, and I have lots of places to sit. Around a table, on the patio, at the counter, in a booth, lots of places! I definitely plan on coming back here in the future. read more

This Panera is one of my favorite places to go study or meet up with friends at Cupertino. It's clean and cool, and there are plenty of tables inside and outside. Some of the cons about studying here is that there are not many outlets, and it can get cold (but I think this is more of a pro because the cold keeps you awake). My favorite on the menu is the broccoli cheddar in a bread bowl!! read more

Be careful when signing up for a coffee subscription. I clicked on a free trial offer and was immediately charged for a months subscription. Tried to get Panera to make a refund with no luck, they just told me what a great value it is for $8.99 a month. read more

Honestly, Panera Bread is a scam. They sell overpriced but cheap quality meals/ingredients, when I can just go to the Wholefoods right next door and get a small delicious soup and a sandwich for a much better price. read more

I got a $9 panini sandwich...that actually made me more hungry than full. :( I can easily make a much more dense, delicious panini with my George Foreman grill for the price I paid here. They also have a 30-minute limit for using their wi-fi during lunch hours.. what? This rating is based solely on their panini sandwiches. I'm sure they have some yummy baked goods.. but most bakeries can make good bread. read more

The taste never changes and it is always super good! The bread bowl soups and melted chipotle chicken avocado sandwich are the best! Definitely recommend to go! read more

Had their Chicken Cuban Panini sandwich.. let me tell you.. it was absolutely amazing.. I can't fathom how tasty this sandwich was. I felt like I was in heaven during the time I was devouring it. I passed on the pastry delicacy but next time.. I promised my tummy. read more

I've always wondered what the whole hubbub about Panera was for years. Well, after numerous late nights at the office leaving me little time to bother with the chore of cooking my own food, I figured it was about time to give this place a shot after trying Corner Bakery Cafe too. And my verdict = not bad, honestly. Given my n00b nature of the menu, I appreciated that the cashier was willing to let me know what ingredients were in each item that I asked about. Salads are good quality for sure, sandwiches if I want it that day. I'm a huge stickler for food quality and freshness, and I can't complain about it here at all. And to reiterate the point, the customer service here is awesome. Everyone has a smile and is always willing to help out. If I were still a student and had to study, I'd come here. NOW I finally understand why people keep coming here...really quiet, free wireless internet, plenty of seats. Simply gets the job done. Hell, if I felt like leaving home and doing work somewhere else, this would probably be my first option. Best part of Panera is the random free crap I've been getting. Signed up my first time here, and I've already gotten a free dessert AND a free shake in my next three visits. Hey, if you want to keep customers happy, free stuff never hurts at all. read more

I went to a Panera once in Boulder, and was overjoyed that there are finally some locations in the South Bay. I finally reunited with my beloved Tuscan chicken sandwich with its awesome pesto aioli. "Reunited and it feels so good..." The salads and baked goods are delish, and the wireless access is another bonus. read more

So first issue is their SLOW service! They actually forgot or didn't provide one of my friends their sandwich until she chased after them!! We all got ours and wait a bit and when my friend asked about hers they said "oh it's coming"... NOTHING... We were all done and she asked again - some confusion happened and she finally got it. Yes got an apology and that's it!! You'd think they would comp her sandwich!! Sheesh... Then went the other day and the parking lot was jammed packed - I actually just wanted to pick up Peets Coffee next door and their Panera Bread Catering Truck was parked there in the 15 min spot. So couldn't find a space so I left. Three hours later - found a spot but no help with the fact the Panera Bread Truck was STILL parked in 15 mins... What the heck - I guess it means they don't care about customers!!! Happened to drive by after running errands later that night at 10pm and the truck was STILL in 15 min parking!! So that was about a total of 6 hrs had passed by then... Not coming to this Panera - slow service, expensive with VERY LITTLE food so not good value.... Move out Panera and let a better place come in... I wish Specialty was there instead so I don't have to drive all the way down Homestead to Lawrence!! Better food, value and service!! read more

The on-line ordering system needs a LOT of help! Our office ordered lunch today on-line, for delivery. Even with a confirmation number and delivery time estimate, we were contacted 30 minutes later that our order had been cancelled. What? By whom, and why? When we've eaten there previously and either picked-up or had it delivered, it's no less than a miracle if the order is actually correct. I think we're done. Too many chances... Food's good, but not worth the hassle. read more

I've come here many times in the past - this place was especially popular when I was in high school, since this was pretty much "the spot" for group projects. A couple friends and I decided to come here again recently for lunch. The line moved pretty quickly, and I ended up ordering the Ancient Grain, Arugula, & Chicken Salad with an apple as my side choice. I had opted to dine-in, so I took my buzzer to the table and within 5-10 minutes it lit up. I was confused because I sat there for a good amount of time and didn't see anyone coming, and soon after the buzzer went silent. So, I decided to go to the counter myself. When I got there and showed my buzzer, the guy immediately said "you must not have put it down on a table because we didn't know where to bring it." He then curtly put the tray in my hands, not even offering to bring it to where I was sitting. Now, I wouldn't normally be so dissatisfied if my food wasn't brought to my table, but the accusing tone that the guy used to tell me (not even having the courtesy to ask) that the mess-up was my fault was pretty upsetting. Onto the actual food - the food itself was decent. The arugula was fresh, the chicken was ok (but not very tender), and the other ingredients included in the salad were pretty good as well - with the exception of the cabbage slaw, which tasted a little funky. I didn't like the dressing, either - it was a bit too sour for my preferences. The side apple was on the mushier side, too, which I wasn't a fan of. Overall, I wasn't impressed but it wasn't terrible. The food was ok, but I think the customer service here is the most off-setting part. It wasn't just this time - I feel like almost every time I come here, the service is less than friendly/welcoming. I either get a cashier who grudgingly takes my order, or I guess I get someone who wrongly, but so blatantly, accuses me of not using their buzzer system correctly. So, the conclusion is that this Panera location is just "A-OK." Probably won't be back anytime in the near future. read more

What happened to this once quiet place to get a good meal? Now it's loud music, loud people, and constant movement. Little more than a glorified MacDonalds now, but louder. RIP Panera. Orlando Waterford Lakes read more

Where do you go for a Bakery with breads, salads, and sandwiches? PANERA! The breads are scrumptious. The salads are divine. The soups are flavorful. You cannot go wrong! My favorites: -Chicken noodle soup -Chipotle Chicken Sandwich -Apple salad Definitely go here for a quick bite and casual conversation. The food is great quality for the price. read more

Panera Bread is a nice casual place for a quick bite or coffee. They have awesome pastries, soups, and sandwiches. Tomato Mozzarella Panini- This panini was absolutely delicious! It's usually with ciabata bread but I requested foccacia for it instead. The combination of mozzarella and tomatoes was perfect. My favorite part of the panini was the sauce which consisted of onions, tomatoes, and spices! Mmm I would definitely get this one again! Broccoli Cheddar Soup- Wow! I LOVED this soup! It was rich, thick, creamy, and full of intense cheese and broccoli flavor. This is soup is perfect on a cold day with a nice piece of bread. Overall, I would recommend Panera Bread for their delicious sandwiches and soups. Four stars baby! read more

I like Panera Bread and its food but.. this location gets really crowded. Probably the ideal place to study for De Anza students, and other students in the area. It gets packed and at times very noisy, so if you're having a group project perfect, but otherwise you should probably go to the library and get your reading done. The booths are nice to sit at if you want to hold a conversation. Otherwise, the tables are where the outlets are at. read more

Everything is Over priced, low quality and small portioned. I have tried everything on the menu and am very unimpressed overall. The only good thing about the place that still brings me in despite suboptimal food, is the unlimited coffee subscription! read more
