Service at the Lake Jackson, TX, location sucked big time!!!! It took 20 minutes to get one smoothie. And that's only because my friend went to the counter to ask about the status of my order. Otherwise, I'd have never received my order. There were no other customers in the restaurant. The woman who finally brought my smoothie to me did not take accountability for anything when we complained how long it took. She simply shrugged her shoulders, said, "I don't know... it (the order) just popped up on my screen." and then she scurried to the back of the restaurant. No apology. Nothing. And there were several tables that needed bussing but didn't get cleaned for the 45 minutes we were there. Finally, the place could use a good cleaning. It's disgustingly filthy and smells awful. I'll never return to this place. If you want to waste your time and money, feel free to patronize this godawful place. read more

The service here was extremely poor. Me and my friends came in to study for an upcoming quiz.. It was not busy whatsoever, with maybe 3 customers beside us who all were eating their food. We placed two orders of mac and cheese and a salad. We sat there for probably 40 minutes until we even received the first order. Prior to receiving our order, a worker in the back was screaming very unprofessionally about a conversation she had with her therapist. We were not being loud or rude whatsoever, just going over vocab terms and flash cards. Shortly after receiving our food, a sweet worker came over with a drink and handed it to my friend. Before my friend could tell her it wasn't our drink, the worker walked away. My friend went up and told them politely that we didn't order the drink, and they responded by telling her "that's why we don't take s***" . She tried to explain but they wouldn't let her speak. Overall, I would not come back and wouldn't have come in the first place if I knew this is the way that we would be treated. read more

The food was okay, however the service here sucked. I came with a few of my friends and there was three orders of food placed and it took them 45 minutes to make three items of food for us. It's not like there was a rush because when we arrived there was only three other customers in here and they all already had their food. I could hear them talking loudly from the back and it seemed they were to focused on talking then serving their customers. Then a sever came and brought a refresher to our table and my friend immediately went up and brought the drink back explaining that nobody ordered it. Their immediate response was to cuss and belittle my friend. This was completely unprofessional and unnecessary and ruined the whole experience. read more

no more than 10 people in the restaurant and they took 25-30 minutes for my food. okay a little reasonable, but then a worker came up to my table giving me a drink that I didn't order, I proceeded to go up to the table thing and said "I didn't order this" she said "you didn't?" I said no ma'am. They proceeded to talk over me then one of them said "well you already took it so now we can't take it back" then they said something else that I didn't understand so I just stood there. then another worker said under her breath but loud enough for me and the others to hear "that's why you don't take shit that isn't yours". she said this while looking down. Mind you the worker came up to MY table handing me a drink that I didn't know if any of my friends order but she quickly walked away before I could say anything which led to me walking up there which also led to this whole situation. Food was decent read more

Polite, prompt service. We ate breakfast, and the food was good and was served quickly. read more

Panera Bread - Croque Monsieur and bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. - Salad Near Me - Lake Jackson, Texas

Ordered soup and hot sandwich, been here many times but today's meal was very disappointing. I had to send to soup back because it wasn't even Luke warm. The sandwich heading says hot but it was not. When you raise your prices don't lose your quality or even worse make quality less. It took longer than ever to serve. I let the manager know. read more

Best squash soup EVER! Delicious sandwiches, vegetarian options. Excellent staff and great ambience!

I guess it's rocket science to put the broccoli cheese soup in the bag when you order a bread bowl with broccoli cheese. I have bread for days, but no soup. read more

Ordered chicken avocado blt. No avocado on sandwich. Oatmeal raisin cookies were burnt. Monsieur croque was meh.

Coffee tasted burnt. Place was so old and dirty, girl at the counter poor costumer service, no energy, no smile.

Went in a little before closing and the manager Brandon was nothing but kind with amazing customer service. Food was fresh and delicious 10/10 read more

Poor Management, Unprofessional employees, food sucks! The whole experience was so disappointing. read more

I rarely take lunch breaks I've seen the advertisements for the ALL NEW Mediterranean Bowls, and was actually excited to try one. I left work, drove 20 minutes (one way) to try this all new item that's being advertised. I made my order, and was informed "we don't have any rice, sorry no bowls". So, 40+ minutes driving, an hours lost wages and no lunch. How do you make your main advertisement, get customers in and then not have to product? I won't be back. read more

My daughter slipped by the beverage fountain area. The rug was damp and the floor tiles were wet from either the fountain leaking or spilled drinks. No one took initiative to clean the area or put up a sign of wet floor. The ceiling tiles over the waiting area by the kitchen have lots of water damage and if you look closely they're growing mold around one of the vents. read more

If you're thinking about ordering delivery, don't do it! We tried before. Sandwich was crushed with a half stale baguette. It has been a month so let's give it another try. Delivered the wrong order! So, don't do it! Never again! read more

ive never left a review before but this may be the worst Panera Bread in the country. Came early Sat morning, the coffee is Un drinkabl, so bad so I took it back and had them remake my daughters iced coffee. Still not worth the money at all. My hot caramel latte isnt great cannot even taste caramel at all. My daughters breakfast sandwich was burnt. good news my scone was ok. Customer service was ok but looks like one of the personnel has their children with them perhaps why she took 20 min in the drive thru. read more

This has got to be about the worst service anyone could experience. I waited about a hour for my food, once's received my order was complete wrong. I had to drive back to Panera to make the complaint. read more

Came here to make a Catering order for a group of high school kids and received great service from Ashlon who helped me order a Greek Salad, a Grilled Cheese and a Large Mac and Cheese. The store was one of the nicest Ive seen and was incredibly clean with plenty of room for groups and parties. Thanks Ashlon for the memorable service and for your help! The kids will love the food! read more

Came into Panera on a Sat evening no one up front to wait on you and when she did come up there she was there and then gone again music that was playing sounded like speaker was busted not a pleasant experience by any means read more

The Turkey Chili is yummm and includes some healthy veggies. It has a nice smokey, spicy full flavor and is served with a chunk of fresh bread from the bakery area. 1/2 serving is plenty for me. If you are really hungry you can pair it with 1/2 salad or 1/2 sandwich. Also, if you have saved calories for the week don't forget to grab an Orange-Cranberry muffin or a scone to take home for a snack later in the day. Welcome to Lake Jackson Panera Bread Company!!! 12/18/15: Panera Bread has let me down :(. I ordered breakfast for a very large meeting this morning. Delivery was scheduled for 6:30 AM. At 6:40 when I called to check on the order I was told they are working on it and should be here in about 30 minutes. This is not acceptable. Timely deliveries for local businesses will make or break a business in our area. Please get this under control Panera. Your food is wonderful and we are so happy to have you here to help us, but we cannot have orders being delivered 30-45 minutes late. read more

Panera Bread - Sierra Turkey with Cesar Salad - Salad Near Me - Lake Jackson, Texas

The Lake Jackson location is great! We always get the bakers dozen bagels when we're having family over, and they have some amazing flavors, they're fresh and have just the right chewiness. The soups are hot and delicious. The steak and white cheddar sandwich is the best, but it can be hit or miss with the amount of filling. I've gotten it loaded and once it was pretty stingy with the steak. Still delicious though. If there's one thing that needs improvement, it's the drive through layout. You're either blocking the parking lot entrance or you're about to get the front of your car hit by drivers that the road exits onto. That's not Paneras fault, just a minor annoyance. read more

The soups, sandwiches and shakes are all good. It's a fresh healthier option than the normal fast food choices.

we decided to try something new and when I tell you mcdonalds tasted better then this I mean it! we walked in didn't really know where to go at first but we found it, our server was very rude and seemed unintrested in taking our order or helping us, when the food got out it was bad, first she got our orders mixed up, then laughed about it. second the BREAD was HARD AS A ROCK!! i mean you could hurt someone with this bread!! it was very bad overall and 1 star because my family will never step foot in there again! read more

It was my first time at Panera and Verda at the counter was so helpful! She explained all the deals and helped me make a great meal by asking a few questions and giving some great choices! She even stopped by on the way to her break to make she I liked everything. Was not expecting this kind of service from a quick lunch. The food was good, but she was better! read more

Panera Bread - Salad Near Me - Lake Jackson, Texas

I show up and I see a crowd of people going in with chick fil a which I found odd, when I stepped inside it was a little dark. They told me they were sorry and not taking any orders at the moment. It's like they didn't have power because their ovens weren't work, atleast put a sign read more

The drive thru is pointless unless you just like to wait in your car for a long time. Overpriced for the service. Employees don't take it seriously, why should I? read more

Drive thru needs work. I heard someone yell' we have a line" and the lady at the window was yelling back at her while telling me my astronomical total. She acted like it was my fault for eating there. And making "a line". I left feeling guilty for eating there and making them work. So no i wont be going back read more

I opted for their "You Pick Two". The cup of creamy tomato soup was awesome. 1/2 asiago steak sandwich was ok. There was very little steak on the sandwich, but the quality was good. The red onions were BO'ie. I think they had been sitting too long. They forgot the smoked cheddar cheese. The horseradish sauce is very strong, so you might want to get that on the side if you order it. The asiago cheese demi it was on was really good. What took off the stars on this review? When an employee walked past the owner then turned around and shouted, "if you touch my ass again I'm going to sue you"! Then the owner shouted "You're fired"! Of course I will update after I've tried more of their menu. read more

I doubt we will ever go back! Years ago we were excited about getting a Panera Bread, but this location is inconsistent and has gotten worse. When the food is good, we can overlook slow service but when you get bad food and bad service repeatedly, it is time to give up. We ordered from the app well ahead of our arrival yet the food wasn't ready, the drink station was torn apart, my soup was cold and my sandwich burned black. I think the corporate office needs to step up and prevent this franchise from destroying the restaurant chain's reputation read more

I do not expect this outlet to stay in business much longer. I arrived at 8 am to get some bagels for carry out. There was not a single car in the parking lot except for one parked beside the building which was probably an employee's car. There was a polite employee inside who took my order for bagels and coffee. The bagels were not good, though. The plain bagel was not fully cooked -- very doughy inside. The all grains bagel was not fresh. I think it was at least a one day carryover. The dark roast coffee made me wonder what they were serving as regular. If the coffee in my cup was dark, it was also weak. They placed the store in one of the most depressingly ugly sites in our beautiful little town. Placed roughly between our slowly dying mall and the thriving Wal-Mart on a thorougfare lined by acres of concrete parking lots (Tree City U.S.A.?) it offers none of the charm that I found at the Panera restaurants in other parts of the country. This store and the quality it offers would not last a week in Boulder or Princeton. This was our second time to go there. One evening we stopped by for dinner. The salad on the tuna sandwich was barely seasoned. Lettuce and tomatoes fell out the sides -- not terrible but nothing to get excited about either. The clerk, when she took our drink order claimed (in response to an order for Diet Coke) that "cokes" were available around the corner at the drink station. Turns out their "cokes" were all "pepsis". This may put them out of business before the poor location and product does. She also directed us to a condiments cabinet for forks and napkins. It was empty. The station was not in use. "Oh" she forgot. She then directed us around the bend to the carryout station. My wife is going over to return the remaining bagels. I will not bother you with any more if that goes well. read more

First time making a yelp review because i never cared to but this was the worst customer service, very slow, food isn't even good nor fresh, the lady that took my order pretty sure it was the manger that took my order was very rude and passive aggressive and my food took forever to come out and when it did they immediately closed the window and i didn't get the chance to tell them they forgot the drinks so then i had to wait 10 minutes for them to open the window again so i can tell them, meanwhile it's now 6:30 and i see the manger going to put a cone in the drive thru even tho they don't close till 8pm and when I got home i realized they forgot the bread that comes with the soup and when I called they didn't answer and i called 10 times and still no answer, not to mention the food is way to expensive for the poor quality service and food and low pay that they give their employee, mcdonalds pay their employees more. I'm never one to complain, i've had bad customers service before and i'm very understanding that maybe there having a bad day but all of the things that went wrong is just no excuse, wouldn't recommend at all like seriously the food i could make at home or get out of a can read more

I don't understand the low rating here. The staff is attentive, polite, and very helpful. The food is consistent with every Panera I've been to. read more

WORST PLACE IN LAKE JACKSON with the exception of McDonalds, oh wait McDonalds gets your order right sometimes. I would rather go to HEB and buy deli Ham and a loaf of bread get some salad bar lettuce tomato onion for the total cost of 11.29 for 5 sandwiches 13.01 if you buy a bag of chips and yes I could eat 5 more times and all would be just the way I wanted it. What a joke. I paid and left my sandwich untouched when it arrived. got up went to grape taste ordered Tito's salad and a class of wine, sat at a table with a white table cloth in a very nice, excellent surroundings with impeccable service (no Counter order or pick-up) didn't even need to see in vegetarian hippie wannabes. I guess even tree hugging, save the whales vegans need a place to eat. NEVER EVER AGAIN read more

Ate there yesterday. Horrible!! Just horrible. The bell pepper in my salad was mushy. Lettuce was wilted. Like it was either old or kept at wrong temp. Chicken noodle soup was so salty it was inedible . Through my food in the trash. My friend and I both did. Didn't even finish our food because is was so nasty. Used to be good. We won't be back. Ever. Surprised we didn't get ill from the food. It's NOT "clean" food. It's not fresh. It sucks now. Yuck read more

So I Love Panera Bread. I go all the time and i never had any problems with them until lately. The last 3 times IN A ROW, they have disregarded my request to remove the feta cheese from either the Mediterranean sandwich or the Greek quinoa salad. The first two times I called and drove back up there and they were quick to fix it. But this last time I had it delivered to my apartment and I just don't feel like calling AGAIN and possibly pissing off who ever is making and re delivering my sandwich. So I picked off the feta as best I could. But damn. It's not that hard to read a ticket and double check the bag. Please Panera management, fix the problem so I don't have to feel bad about calling over 3 times because someone in your kitchen is obsessed with putting feta cheese on everything or just can't read!!! read more

My daughter, husband, and 2 small children were eating here Sunday 5/5/19. The ceiling tiles collapsed (due to being flooded) all around but not on them, And thank God! No one approached them to see if they were safe or to offer assistance. They left wet with no apologies. Appalling!!!!! WTH!!! read more

Mediocre food, gloomy atmosphere. The one in Pearland is better. I promise you can cook better food than they serve here.

I was so excited when I saw they were opening a location in Lake Jackson. I tried this chain in Portland, Oregon and feel in love with it. Unfortunately this location is very disappointing. Went through the drive through and ordered the turkey sandwich for both my husband and me. First of all, I about choked when they told me the price because it didn't match the menu. Got the sandwiches home and they were cold, had no seasoning and kept falling apart. Since I have ordered the same at other locations it has to be just this location. No, I will not be going back to this location and will be highly surprised if it stays open. read more

They are definitely known for their breads. I got a chicken Caesar salad, the chicken has no flavor, is cold and gross all around. They did not give me enough dressing for the salad, and the salad is just plain sad. I also got a strawberry banana smoothie, the smoothie had too much yogurt and banana, it was all I tasted. It was like it had no strawberries in it whatsoever. read more
