My aunt took me here and I was so amazed with the variety of food and desserts! I'm very pleased as a vegetarian I found a few options for me. The broccoli cheese soup was so good! Better than subway! They have so many yummy desserts to choose from. Will definitely go back. read more

Panera Bread - Cheese broccoli soup and Mediterranean veggie sandwich - Salad Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

See all

A bit pricey for what i bought. 2 yogurt smoothies, and a crossan, almost $15 dollars that's a crime. The smoothies felt like i was getting a kid's meal or something. The drinks are too small. I was also planning on getting other breads but i saw what it looked like a fly, flying over the the bread. I just hope it was my imagination. read more

I love the food here and I wanted to order delivery for my friend I even checked their delivery website, postmates, and doordash and none of them delivered to her house which was very close. I was very disappointed so I had to order from somewhere else. I wish I could've ordered the wild rice soup and green goddes salad ;( read more

What can I say? I don't think I've seen so much confusion & food taken back and forth to the kitchen as much as tonight. Not just with the pasta I order , which was cold. But with other customers orders también. To quote Shakespeare's.. #jk . Service was ok , food was basic just the mistakes the kitchen had was no bueno .. Codos for the study room!! Never seen a Panera with one . Bravo . & Restrooms need some toilet paper. Ever not wiped ? Kinda sucks read more

I used to frequent this Panera very often but unfortunately I no longer will. It's already been a few times that I receive undercooked food. I typically don't hold it against restaurants when it happens once or even a second time but this was just too much. I'm very sad and disappointed that I even have to leave this review. read more

Food is delicious! First timer and I will come back. Lady at the register took a few minutes to get order but it was because she is new and still learning. Therefore, i was ok with that. I ordered the broccoli cheddar soup in a bread bowl. Delicious! Spend overall of $9 not bad for a large iced green tea the soup and a pastry Place is very clean and brought our food nice and hot to our table read more

I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for your company's professionalism in dealing with a fairly minor issue. One of our 3 coffee totes had been damaged and Donte, the delivery personnel, was very hospitable and accommodating for his efforts in bringing us a new coffee tote, along with cookies and a fruit bowl. My family is ever so grateful for your efforts in making this experience unexpectedly pleasant. Thank you again to Donte for his great Customer Service! read more

Did curbside order but all spots were used by regular customer so no where to park for curbside due to no numbers available to enter when arriving for pick up. read more

Today is a good day... today is a really really really good today. Today I found out I passed my NCLEX-RN and that means I am finally a Registered Nurse! Why am I posting all this here... no one cares haha....tell us about the food and service you say... lol well it's all relevant. I spent about 9 days at this Panera Bread - Each time I stayed for 2-8 hours studying for this darn exam. My favourite booth was table 61... because it had a power outlet and it was close to the restroom. Anyways... this is an amazing place to study. The wifi works beautifully and the staff are pretty friendly. I think the best thing really was that I could order from my computer by logging onto the panera bread website and selecting "order from my table". So yes more time for study haha. I legit has breakfast, lunch and dinner here most days! So yes I contribute my success to panera bread for having an awesome study spot for me. I thank the staff for being friendly and for not making strange faces at me as I stayed at panera for 8 hours a day. One comment... mainly for the people who eat here. Clean up after your darn self. It's my understanding that if you don't tip somewhere then you clean up after yourself! It mind boggles me when I see people arrive, look at a table, make a big stink because the table is not clean...AND THEN when they leave they leave the table in the same mess... entitled much? If you are going to leave a giant mess at least tip! read more

I always hear a lot of buzz about Panera Bread, so I decided to give it a try for my self and I went to have dinner with some family. I ordered the Alfredo Chicken Tortellini and it was very poor tasting, I don't like to return food or compliant about it, because I always have a saying if you gave your customers that dish I'm going to assume that's the best you can do and why get your chefs or cooks mad and make them do something again that they could have done a good job in the beginning to impress us the customers so that we can return back. This was my complaint and I'm only going to speak for my self, but my family had a similar situation. The tortellini was dry and not covered in Alfredo sauce so it shouldn't be called Alfredo, second my chicken was pink which I was scared to even try and the bread served with it was hard as a rock and being that it's a bakery Panera should be serving fresh bread. My dish only came with 2 pieces of chicken and to top it off it was way over priced, I could have had a nice plate at an Italian restaurant. See for yourself in the picture. Will not come back to this Panera at least. read more

Panera Bread - Alfredo Tortellini with Chicken, Pink chicken thumbs down. - Salad Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

Yo if you want some over priced, dry ass oatmeal with like 2 strawberry this is the place man !!!

I'm glad they opened a Panera bread In pico, but as far as the service goes it isn't all that great. They usually get my order right but they take a while to get it ready. I go here on my lunch break at work sometimes and even when i call it in before i punch out for lunch, i still end up having to eat quick because i wasted my time waiting for my order to be ready.. There Alfredo pasta taste like it was microwaved and not all the way..and the French onion soup is just too damn salty, I love salt but damn they are pushing it. Can't go wrong with the broccoli cheddar soup though and the hot chipotle sandwich thing is good. Overall if I like panera, but if I am willing to drive to another location then I will, even tho this one is only 7 mins away. read more

I'm a regular here for lunch. I can't stay away I come in atleast once a week. There are many options to choose from. They have a great selection of sandwiches, salad, and soups and who can forget their dollar pastries if you buy a drink read more

Let me start with I love Panera bagels. I love the proximity to my place. Yesterday they forgot my drinks . I went in this morning expecting a hassle but all I got was happy joy joy feelings. They remembered me and with out hesitation the fixed the issue. What no hassle no fight only smiles so all I can say is Panera I will be a loyal customer for life. I will never buy bagels anywhere else thanks again to the staff. I love Panera read more

This place should have been a Corner Bakery, not a panera bread. Based on the quality and portions servings it's a rip off. The management is a bunch of 20-27 year olds, they act as if they are corporate management living the corporate life style, as in they are the cream of the crop. This False sense of consciousness, reflects the poor customer service. Not only are they rude to customers they are rude to their cashiers, servers and cooks. Employees at this location who perform basic duties are very nice, I just don't understand the attitude of these so called "managers". When it comes to food this place is not happening, I would suggest you cross the street and eat at Subway. I eat out on a daily basis, and I do not appreciate rude customer service and bad food. Please spend your $15 wisely and go else where. I was forced to put 1 star, I wanted to leave ZERO stars. read more

Very disappointed this morning, my bagel order was not ready by the schedule pick up time. Had to cancel my order. This is not good customer service. read more

Panera is a great addition to the neighborhood and I have been there twice already on my way to work. Thus far they are still working out the kinks and training staff so the wait is longer than usual and they forget to give you things such as a spoon with your yogurt. Great place to get online if you can (for some reason my MAC hates the Panera Wi-fi). Don't forget to use your Panera card for free goodies! read more

Went to get a bowl of tomato soup, since I was feeling under the weather-fiancé had to drive back to show the staff how there was a MAGGOT in my soup. Luckily for me, I had stirred the cup prior to eating the soup. That was when it floated to the top. Am now sick to my stomach and will NOT be returning to this location again. GET IT TOGETHER PANERA . read more

I think my carrot pineapple smoothie had soap in it.. my drink was too foamy, smoothies shouldn't be foamy. Why didn't staff see it and make me another? Now I don't feel good. read more

Panera Bread - This carrot pineapple smoothie is too foamy. There must be soap in it because it tastes like soap. - Salad Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

I always order from here for the salads. It's Panera so you figure you can't go wrong. Until I just found a piece of HAIR in my salad. GROSS. I won't be ordering from here again. Enough said. read more

Came in for iced coffee and they gave me my order in a soda cup . So disappointed , coffee wasn't even ready when I got there

So I am currently eating my delicious, late night dinner at this particular establishment. Food is good as usual, even at this time of night (9:15 PM) but, as my girlfriend and I sat down a young man was walking around interrupting my and the other patrons meals hawking some sort of "superfruit energy juice". Now I understand that is is/was late but this man and his "business partner" just walk around handing out pamphlets and sitting at other patrons tables as the employees cast a blind eye. I just want to eat in peace without being heckled. Come on Panera, let me and the other patrons enjoy our meals in peace! read more

Fast quick and fresh food made to order got in just in time before closing but glad I did

$28?!?!?! One full and one half sandwich, 1 small drink, 1 brownie, and 1 cookie somehow came to $28???? The turkey BLT only had a few slices of turkey and only 2 thin slices of bacon. I'll go elsewhere in the future. NOT worth it. read more

The food is so good and fresh ... Nice and clean.. The only thing that I didn't understand was why it's so cold inside?? The AC was really high.. where sitting outside was more comfortable! read more

I've visited this Panera several times in the past and have never had any problems. Parking is always readily available, the staff are always courteous, wait time for food is reasonable, and their food is always delicious. read more

These stars are for Jared and Irene because they are both so nice and genuinely make every visit a pleasant one. Irene is the nicest Cashier and Jared amazing as Quality Checker :) Thanks guys! Really appreciate it :) read more

The Team Lead at Panera, Paul, was so sweet! We had trouble with the self order kiosk and he was kind enough to help us out with that. His attitude was just great all around! read more

I'm so happy they finally opened one near my work! You can order for pick up if you are in a rush. Both visits have been pretty good. I did get there a little later than most people so I didn't have to deal with the rush. Since this place is fairly new, I would wait a while to visit, if you don't have much patience. Hope they can improve in their service and make this like all the other Panera's I've been to. read more

I am in love with the Mac and cheese here! I also have a weakness for the broccoli cheddar soup in a bread bowl as well as their tomato soup! The service is always fast and the staff is awesome! They are very polite and friendly. My favorite panera bread to visit hands down. read more

Panera Bread - Mac and cheese with tomato soup and a baguette - Salad Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

Walked in to order to go and there were orders ready to be taken to tables. The girl prepping the food kept yelling, "order up" "order # up" "food ready for table" with no response. Like 6 plates, were there when we walked in (not sure for how long) and even after our order was ready. All I know is, the food was there long enough for steam to not be coming off the soup. While waiting for our order I could see a guy at a booth looking at the food over and over (pretty sure it was his order), as the counter where they put the finished food is in view of the dining area. I could also see an employee, talking to another employee saying how there were 3 other employees but they weren't doing there jobs. I was a little bugged at how there was a girl working in the front moving one box back and forth, I don't know if she was replacing the boxes for the baked goods, but her presence in that area seemed pointless. The other girl, the one doing the registers was taking orders, making drinks, getting baked goods and slicing bread. Before we left she was the one running back to help deliver the plates to tables. I was very disappointed with this paneras dine in service and I wasn't even the one dining in. That's how bad it was. Their to go service is pretty great though, except for the fact that they often forget to put the bread for the soup in the bag. I've been to the one in the whittwood mall many times and never had a wait like I saw people waiting today. My advice, delegate jobs more reasonably, the girl with the box should be picking up the slack, that box could've waited. The plus this time, the cashier girl was fantastic, super kind and effective, they remembered the bread, and the panini was definitely warmed (last time we got cold centers). read more

The southwest Chile lime salad is da bomb. It was worth the price. No Panera in Monterey park, so I came out to Pico Rivera. I have to come out more often. read more

Me and my family have been coming to Panera Bread Bakery since they opened as time goes on it gets kind of disappointing to go there the prices are very high and the amount of food they give you is very small for example today we got tortellini chicken it's almost $10 for that order and I couldn't believe the small to go bowl that it came in it was unbelievable for the prices they charge in the amount of food you get it's a rip-off read more

I'm SO happy they opened a Panera here! I love the Panera Bread franchise but I have only found them to be in cities surrounding my own, Pico Rivera. When I lived in Whittier, the one at the Whittwood Town Center was still a drive for me. Once I moved to Pico I had to come to terms that unless I made the drive, eating at Panera was not in my foreseen future :'( The location of this Panera is perfect! Businesses of all sorts are located all around it so you can satisfy that grumbling stomach AND get all your pending errands finished! When you're coming home from work the LAST thing you want is having to drive to several locations to get all your shopping done :P The service has been great every time I've gone. The cashier is super nice, the food is as good as "fastfood-ish Italian-ish" can get, and the employees seem to attentive to cleanliness. read more

I really enjoy the food from Panera but if you order Curbside you will be waiting forever for your order to come out!!!! If you decide to call the restaurant to see what's going on with your order you'll be waiting forever because they don't answer the phone. read more

I have gone to this Panera SEVERAL times asking if they have kitchen sink cookies and they are always inconveniently "sold out." I have gone numerous of times anywhere from 8am to 7pm with no such luck. I am pretty confident the staff hordes them/keeps the cookies for themselves and not sell them to willing paying customers. I have gone out of my way to other Panera locations and those are always well stocked with cookies, so something is wrong with this particular location. I don't trust their service. read more

worst service ever. specially the manager, so unprofessional, she have bad attitude. i was there 1 day ago. and when we ask her why is taking to long to take our order , she just said : " i was busy" not even apologize, nothing at all. and she start laughing. she is the most unprofessional manager i ever met. read more

I've had bagged salads that have looked and tasted better, my salad looked SO boring and to top off the blandness they forgot to give me dressing :/ Customer service is good, but food quality and price aren't equals.. and it didn't use to be that way, I used to like Panera, but lately have been very unimpressed, and will not be returning :( read more

Pretty chill and awesome spot for a quick and local study session in the morning!
