    We always do drive thru pick up and every time we have a problem. The most recent time, I placed a pick up order at 9:16am and when it was confirmed, it said it wouldn't be ready until 9:44am. We ordered two breakfast sandwiches and two pastries....why is that taking 30 minutes? When we got there at 9:30, it didn't look busy. The girl said she hadn't even received our order which doesn't make sense. Got the food at 9:45am and it was not worth that wait. I know there's an egg shortage right now, but they need to disclose that they aren't using real eggs.

    Garden Avo sandwich was not good and avocado was hard
    Meg M.

    I ordered the "Garden Avo" (which is toast) and realized after I paid that they gave me the "Garden Avo Egg White Sandwich". I drove away thinking I'd try it out but it was not up to par..bland, no flavor, watery, HARD avocado slices. I tried calling the restaurant but could not get through and it was not even peak hours. I have kids and it's dead of summer, there's no way I could go back to the drive thru already headed to our next destination. So I'm out that money. Panera in general got rid of all the items I go there for: Napa chicken salad, basic ham sandwich, molasses bread, Gouda cheese as an option, mustard or mayo on sandwiches. The menu overall is confusing and makes it feel like a whole new restaurant which is maybe what they're going for. Hoping to find a better cafe in the west valley that has fresh foods and a good chicken salad at the least.

    1/2 and 1/2 special (soup and sandwich)

    I was in the area and needed a quick yummy lunch! I found a Panera Bread nearby and darted for this place! It looks clean, nice, and new. I decided to do the ordering at the self ordering area. Of course, I forgot my drink! I walked to the counted and tried to order a large ice tea but the staff member was so nice to offer it to me for free. THANK YOU! That was very sweet and not necessary. There plenty of seating areas and I picked the main dining area in the corner. They delivered my 1/2 and 1/2 special (soup and sandwich). For my soup, I got cream of chicken and wild rice soup. For my sandwich, I got the half chicken bacon rancher. I almost got a bag of chips and a large green tea.

    Tomato soup with half grill cheese special for me.
    Yvonne H.

    Where do I start? We both needed soup for dinner and stopped here. We got the special that comes with half a sandwich. We both got grilled cheese, and the cheese was not nearly melted enough. My tomato soup was OK, but the bowl should've been filled a bit more. Hubby got chicken noodle, and his bowl was not even half filled. Nope, he was not a happy man. To top it off, that bowl had one small piece of chicken and 3 noodles. The rest was broth. Sad, I wish I had gotten a picture of that. Add in two drinks, and the total was over $32.00. It's not worth it. Sorry, not sorry. Nope. Won't be back.

    I feel disrespected To know that someone made this sandwich, gave them self an atta boy nod, wrapped it up and served me with a smile. I should have taken the time to look up this location before even driving over there. The establishment only has 2 stars and something tells me that the 2 stars for this venue is earned There's absolutely no way someone put this together and thought to themselves this was a sandwich Never again I tell you Panera bread is dead to me

    Receipt

    As I was ordering at the drive-thru,I thought to myself why haven't I come here before. I ordered (1) chicken Roma asiago bagel stack at 1:54 PM (on the receipt). They told me to wait at parking spot number two as the order was taking some time. As I watched other cars, get their food and noticed their bags were larger or sometimes more than one, I thought to myself when will I get my one bagel. By 2:10 PM I went in the store wondering what happened to my sandwich. As I was asking for a manager, I saw a young man walking out the door towards my car and realized that was my sandwich. I finally got it at 2:14PM. I realize now I know why I don't frequent this restaurant. Taking 15 minutes for one bagel does not work for anyone who's looking for a quick meal. I would avoid the Goodyear drive-through.

    Quick lunch craving mac and cheese. The bacon mac and cheese perfect texture good creamy tasty cheese bacon cooked to perfection. fast friendly service. great temperatures good vibe clean restrooms.

    Mac n cheese
    Erica C.

    So disappointed! It's like my Mac and cheese was left over from the day before and reheated! I've ordered Mac n cheese from this location many times before & this time it was NOT the same. It's usually fresh and creamy. This time the cheese sauce was dry and chunky.

    Was not really happy with value to portion size. Food was not really anything special for the price they charge. More bread to fill you up more than fillings. Staff were nice but I'd keep driving to another option given the choice. Dining hall was dirty even though people were not really inside. Trash under booths. Definitely needs some TLC

    Very watery potato soup.

    The cashier was super nice but I think the girls behind preparing food were upset that I asked for my food to go instead of dine in. This soup was so watery I could t eat it when I got home. One of them practically threw my bag on the counter for pick up while I was right there waiting. Very good way to lose a regular customer.

    There always under staffed and the portions have gotten smaller for the price! Sometimes we want a little to long for food!

    Wildflower has been a favorite for a while. I'm so sad they no longer carry the sweet potato…read moresandwich though! But I met up with friends for 10am breakfast. There was a steady flow of customers, but not over crowded. Not too bad for a Super Bowl Sunday mid morning get together. I selected the Everything Smoked Salmon sandwich with a side of home fries. The presentation was colorful and inviting. Anytime you can see flavors, you know you're in for a fulfilling treat. I was asked if I would like the bread toasted and of course I affirmed that I did. It was a nice crunch in contrast to a heaping serving of beefy tomato and salmon. The home fries were a nice side dish choice and were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The tangy blackberry orange lemonade is always a top choice for beverage. All served in good time with a smile. Outdoor seating was plentiful for a great day like today when the weather is perfect.

    We have been coming to this Wildflower location as a family since the day it opened, my kids, my…read moremother, my husband, and even out‑of‑town guests. We've spent a lot here over the years and have always supported and recommended this location. That's why my son's recent experience was so disappointing. He stopped in to get some work done, something he's done many times during slow hours. Sometimes he buys something, sometimes he doesn't, and it has never been an issue. This has always been a welcoming place. This time, a staff member told him he couldn't sit and work unless he purchased something. What made it worse was the explanation: a table of eight older gentlemen "didn't like" that he was sitting there working, and that was the reason he needed to leave or buy something. It wasn't busy, it wasn't about space, and it wasn't about a policy. It was simply another group of customers not liking his presence, and the staff acting on that. After years of loyalty, that was incredibly disappointing. If there's a new policy, that's fine, just communicate it clearly and apply it consistently. Asking a long‑time customer to leave because another table "didn't like" them is not acceptable. This experience genuinely made us rethink continuing to support this location.

    Food was delicious! Everything I ate was spicy. (California…read morechicken on a bed of rice) I also had a taste of the shrimp appetizer. It wasn't like "get the milk" spicy. It was like ...the more I kept eating it, the spicier it got. I'm not one for spicy food, but it tasted really good. Bring along your Zantac Service was good. The restaurant is pretty loud, so it was hard to hear family sitting across from us. We were a party of 7 and ended up in a half circle booth. Overall it was good. I'd go there again, but I'd look for something on the menu that I knew wasn't going to be spicy.

    A couple of weeks ago, I had a craving for a good burger. You know what I mean: that juicy one that…read moreyou bite into and you immediately need a napkin. The cheese isn't so thin and nonexistent it fairly evaporates into the meat. You taste it because it's good sharp cheddar or thick government cheese. The lettuce is crisp, tomatoes are meaty, and the onions are just there in their aromatic essence - I'm not going to need a breath mint to make it through this date. And, come on, how did I forget about the beef? It can't just be salt and peppered but at least slightly seasoned. Not grisly, dry and not so much meat that it blows out everything else on the bun. Oh, and the sauce. Big stars for not just being thousand island or ranch but some concoction a chef took the time to craft. And why be a scratch kitchen if you are going to slather it with mayo? I won't even order that. Because I hate mayo and I don't want to have to ask for mustard or ketchup or some kind of bottled dressing to make up for the insult of straight mayo. Enter into my life Bubba's 33. I had forgotten about that craving but my husband remembered and found this place for a Friday night date. You walk in and it is so happy. We got there in the sweet spot between super early diners and people who just got off work. I got the burger I just described. To a T. Offered in a comforting, fresh warm bun that was worthy of all it contained. And my husband immediately reached for his napkin. Served with a side of seasoned fries and I asked for ranch for dipping, because I will judge you on your ranch, too. Much respect, Bubba. You did it. As we waited, I had to use the ladies' and happened to see the kitchen on my way. Everyone seems happy to work there, like friends, and maybe that is why the service and food were both top tier. Left happy. Comforted. With a coupon for a free appetizer because the sweet host asks you if it's your first time and then a manager - or some random guy in street clothes rather than a black top like everyone else - comes over and greets you and hands you one. I need to stop writing this because it's only 8:46 am and I want a burger and I have a long day of thrifting and errands in Phoenix that precludes a journey to Bubbas. But, we'll be back! Without even reading this but knowing I am writing this, my husband said he's craving one, too. He said, "That was a goooood burger." lol
