    Chicken and cranberry sandwich
    Viktoria K.

    We had an unpleasant experience today. We were served a plate with a sandwich on it--only to discover a hair in the food. I spoke to the kitchen staff, and they readily prepared a fresh chicken and cranberry sandwich for me--just as delicious as the first one--but the incident still put a bit of a damper on my mood. And now for the question: ‍ Why don't food service employees wear hairnets to prevent hair from getting into the food?!

    Panera is always a hit or miss situation for me. Today I ordered an Asian salad and smokehouse barbecue sandwich. Sandwich was good but I noticed that they have skimped on the ingredients lately. The salad was missing almonds too. I'm surprised that they don't have mandarin oranges as a topping like most Asian salad. Service was quick but the place had a lot of tables that were not cleaned.

    I've always liked Panera and the cranberry walnut chicken salad sandwich used to be one of my go-tos. It was big, fresh, and flavorful, definitely worth the price. Unfortunately, this time it was a huge letdown. The sandwich was noticeably smaller, the bread felt skimpy, and the taste just wasn't there. For $10, it really didn't feel like the same quality I've had before. I couldn't even finish it because it was so bad. On the positive side, the broccoli cheddar soup was excellent as always. Rich, comforting, and consistent. I just wish the sandwich still lived up to what it used to be.

    Brownie
    Rica G.

    $4.39 for this little brownie. Absolutely ridiculous. Your online photos are very misleading. You should have these set in front so people can see what they look like before buying. I could buy a whole box of brownies for less than this. Can you put a little more oomph into the brownie.

    The most delicious chicken soup, if you want a light meal and enjoy a delicious breakfast of sandwiches, then come to this place!

    I dropped off my new car at the auto shop nearby and had time to grab lunch before my rental car pickup. I haven't been to Panera in years because of subpar service and food at other locations. This place was on point in all aspects. The restaurant is open, modern, and casual. The cashier was very friendly and helpful. It was a busy Tuesday around noon so there was a bit of a wait. But it was well worth it. My Southwest salad with grilled chicken was fresh and perfect especially with the avocados and dressing. My sourdough bread was superb with my broccoli and cheese soup although I'm not sure if you legitimately call it soup. Highly recommend!

    Bacon Mac & Cheese
    Ashley C.

    Panera is always a solid option for lunch! This particular location is a bit small and the parking lot is very crowded, but otherwise I'm always impressed by the service here. They always seem to go above and beyond! I had a coupon for half off entree so I decided to get a You Pick Two lunch and try out some new items. The cheesesteak sandwich was saucy, and I liked that I was able to switch the type of bread for no charge. I also tried their new bacon mac & cheese. It was just as good as the regular one. I always find it funny that you get a baguette on the side even when there's no soup, but I'm not complaining. The Pick Two option is always my favorite because I get to try two items and it's not a super huge portion. Had to pair it with my favorite drink here - the papaya green tea. So yummy!

    Can't get a hold of their cafe! Called the cooperate but wasn't helpful at all

    This location is a scam! Happened today 10/15/2025. They stated my food was delivered but it was never delivered! My coworker didnt have lunch today. We were gonna celebrate an event today. This was why I ordered food in advance. Ordered on 10/13/2025. I even added tip on the order. I can't get a hold of anyone at the cafe to explain this! They deserve a 0 star! But I don't have the option to place ZERO star here I need a manager to contact me to explain this situation!! Order #6051715996746736 See the picture! TOTALLY A SCAM!!

    Looks like I'm missing half my salad. This Panera has been a disappointment ......Please do better.
    Suguey M.

    The food is below average, and it's so sad because I love Panera but this specific location gets my orders wrong 100% of the time. Or the quality isn't there. My salad bowl is half full.. I ordered a grilled cheese once that was so hard and burnt I could've used it as a weapon... please do better, remember your making food for people. Sprinkle a little love on it.

    French onion soup
    Ginger D.

    Panera!!!! I love you!!!!! Okay what's better then a classic meal from Panera? You know it's going to be bomb! Today I got the you pick two.. French onion soup with the half Fuji chicken salad! Soooooo delicious! The soup was perfect as it always is! The Fuji chicken salad was amazing... perfect amount of flavor. The staff inside Panera are all so sweet. Can we also remember the best bread ever?!!

The deli sandwiches is where it's at though, and there's always a long line. The sandwiches are so loaded! You get the order sheet to the left side of the deli and put your form in the basket. Then walk around the store and pick up delicious cheeses, charcuterie meats, snacks, and fresh pasta. Their ravioli is pretty famous and reminds me of an upgraded version of the nostalgic soft, square beef raviolis that I grew up eating. If you don't want to commit to the entire box of take-home ravioli, you can buy it by smaller tubs from the deli. After 20-30 mins, your sandwich should be ready for pickup. The workers there are so friendly and provide great service. They genuinely seem to like their jobs. We got one guy helping us out from one end of the deli to the other end and he was so patient and happy the entire time. There was a sweet lady handing out cheese samples as well. Everything I tried was so delicious. I especially loved how thin they slice the charcuterie meats where they are translucent when held up to the light. Can't wait to go back for their fresh pastas and homemade sauces.

I'm here to tell you the reviews are absolutely deserved because this is now our go-to sandwich shop! The bread is always fresh, they don't skimp on the meat or toppings, and they can melt the sandwiches, which takes them to another level. My wife loved the avocado on her sandwich, and I personally can't get enough of the Chicken Bacon Ranch and Chicken Pesto.
