Not even worth one star. This is the worst establishment for panera I've ever been to. I went in in labor wanting a sandwich for on the way to the hospital. Thankfully the sandwich turned out okay. The pickle looked like it was found under the stove. The drink machine was out. When I asked about it. She acted like she didn't give a hoot. Tried 4 different drinks. I got a bagel with cream cheese. No cream cheese. No slice in the bagel. read more

Nothing better on a cold night when suffering from Cedar Fever than a bowl of chicken noodle soup and French baguette. Topped off with a chocolate chip muffin top, and we are set for the night of staying in and keeping warm. Soup was simple in flavor but, hit the right spot. Mountain cedar kicking everyones booty, but this soup just warmed me from the inside out. thank you read more

staff was really sweet to me and got me my order quickly and then as i was leaving i heard the manager yelling at the team member who i talked to briefly for seemingly no reason asking "who are you talking to" it was me. calm down yk like relax customers dont like hearing the staff be disrespected by management. 3 stars for that kid though they were sweet read more

Panera in the forum location was a lot more cozier than other places I've been. Parking lot and seating was limited, maybe because we came during peak hours at lunch. I noticed they have touch screen ordering screens if you choose to utilize it. I chose to order at the registers since the touch screens didn't look any faster. I ordered tomato basil soup, bacon macaroni and cheese along with a pastry called "cheese". The pastry looked like a round croissant like a icing cheese that embeds the middle of it. For my order to come out it took a good 15-20 minutes. Not only that, there was a piece of hair in my Macaroni and cheese which I wasn't happy about but didn't have time to complain since we all had to go back to work. Other than that food was great, but portions were a bit smaller than what I remembered. read more

I just paid $20 for these items & definitely not worth it. When asked if these were bowls or cups, they confirmed they were bowls. :( I've ordered from other Panera's & this was my first & last time ordering from here. I should have read the reviews before I came to this location. Good luck if you order from here. read more

Can I have some substance with my sandwich please? Ughhhh we ordered a big order for work so I'm busy as it is, run in to the break room to eat and this is what I find! Sooo disappointed! The only upside was the salad I had gotten was decent! $13 is redic as well! read more

I ordered an Italian sandwich here for the first time. I added bacon to the sandwich because, well, it's bacon. I ordered this without the peppers that normally come with it. It was a great sandwich, the provolone cheese was melted, bread tasted fresh and buttery, and the flavor was exquisite. I WILL order this sandwich again. On another note, when I arrived to pick up my food, I was a little disconcerted. I went to the counter and said, "I'm here to pick up an online order for _______. The employee said, "Ok, all of the online orders are on the shelf behind you." He pointed to a bookshelf that had 5 brown bags of food with customer names on them. I took the bag with my name and left. Now, truth be told, I could've taken any bag I want. I like the fact how there wasn't a line to pick up my food. This made for a prompt visit. However, I'd like to verify if I have the correct food, the cost, and other info with the employee. It would be great if this was initiatives by the employee. It just seems anyone can walk in off the street and pick up food for free. You know, maybe I'll let some homeless folks know about this! Other than the pick-up, the food was outstanding. Will be back! read more

Panera Bread - Italian Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Selma, Texas

Ugh I realized Panera Bread has gone down hill over the past 6 years, but dang this establishment in particular brings the expire very to 1 star. Whether it be a management issue or a staff issue, this place sucks. 12:30 pm & trying to order & they are "out of stock" on several items. The booths are dirty, & zero people are walking around cleaning. The self check out kiosk was broke, I notified Marilyn the lady working the register & she didn't acknowledge me. Just that awkward stare, so I repeated myself & she ignored me again saying " what can I get you?" I'll never eat here again. read more

Just awful. No cream cheese for the bagels, which were small and hard- no pickled onions for the steak sandwich, which was cold and tough, and every employee just shuffled around hating life. read more

Ortdered a turkey sandwich and for an extra $2.50 a side tomato-cucumber w/ basil salad instead of chips. I was severely disappointed with what I got. For the extra cash, a decent amount would be good, but what would've been even better if the "salad" came with actual basil instead of parsley. That was not cool at all. Competition is too tough to make errors like this, guys/gals. I won't be back. read more

I love Panera Bread for their soups and salad. My fave is the Green Goddess Salad and Tomato Basil soup. It's delicious and fresh. When I am craving a bagel, their Cinnamon crunch is like a dessert in itself... The forum location is always clean and service is very friendly... read more

Panera is always my go to spot for breakfast bagels. I always get the Cinnamon Crunch Bagel. It's very sweet and delicious. When I'm really wanting to splurge I get the hazelnut cream cheese. They have a variety of breakfast rolls, bagels, muffins and treats. Usually the service is quick and you're in and out. That was the case today, as I ordered and had my bagels prepared and provided within 5minutes. read more

Stopped in today for breakfast to go. Their soufflés are sooooo good. Just the egg with cheese one is all I ever get but they have others with more ingredients. Got a cold brew Madagascar vanilla cream coffee. Very tasty! I've been going to this Panera for years. They always do a nice job with my food and beverages. Today they were a bit disorganized at the front counter and I stood there for a bit because the girl behind the counter thought she'd helped me already. Other than that, great breakfast and I was on my way again. read more

This location is in need of some serious cleaning. My dine in experience was one of the worst I've ever had. The inside is filthy, from food stains on the walls and furniture to dirt all over. My spoon was dirty, therefore I grabbed a plastic one that was sealed in plastic. I ordered a chicken fontega sandwich and the bread was good but the chicken was a bit pink and there was no sauce. With the lobby looking the way that it did, it makes me wonder about the kitchen/prep area. I don't think I will be dining at this location again. read more

I'm only giving this 2 stars because the food was alright. BUT.... my family ate dinner here tonight and the place was filthy. The floor looked like it hadn't been swept all day, the tables were dirty, the chairs were dirty. I went to get a high chair and quickly changed my mind after I saw them. No thanks. My 5 year old said she needed to use the bathroom and I refused to take her in there. Who knows what it would have been like. We were really disappointed since we love Panera and consider it "high end" fast food. We ate our food and got out of there as quickly as possible. We will not be returning to this location. read more

My mom had decided to surprise me with lunch so she went to pick it up and as soon as she got to my house and we started to prepare to eat, the apple had teeth marks in them. She called and told the manager what we saw and she kind of brushed it off. Maybe it's the curbside pickup that makes it not as enjoyable as we had been there before numerous times. Mind you the soup was cold and I stay about not even 3 minutes from the forum. Very disappointing after a rough treatment week for me. Please please check the apples read more

I was wanting a healthy lunch and husband suggested Panera! I had the Pick 2-turkey chili and Greek salad. Daughter had kids meal steak and cheese. Husband had broccoli cheese soup and Greek salad. We all enjoyed our lunch and had a cookie ( um, yeah, not so healthy) for dessert. Yum!! Love all the choices on kids menu!! read more

I have always love going into a Panera and this was no exception. The store was clean and they had the kiosk for you to order from. After making my order it took less than five minutes to have my food brought out to me. The food was delicious and looked great. The only issue was that the bread was cold and hard. It was as if it had been left out all day. I don't expect dread oven warm bread but I would hope it wouldn't be so cold and hard. Other than that no issues. read more

Never thought I would be a fan of Panera Bread. I use to hate on it but now I am a big fan of this place. I owe it to my girl friend, sister and mom. They would always want to come here. And I'm like why? Well I have learned to love why. Panera Bread is good quality food. If you want quality bistro type food for a reasonable price this is the place for you. In order to do this you must order the pick 2 special. The pick 2 selections are extensive; I never have trouble picking from this menu. The service is on point. No dedicated waiter service but people walk around to check on the tables and take away your used dishes. PB restaurants are well kept, this one is no exception. Food: A Selection: A Atmosphere: B (It can get uncomfortably crowded) Price: A Service: A read more

I have always loved Panera, however the last two times I have been there the silverware has been dirty. I smelled it and you could tell it was washed in dirty water. Spoon had caked on yellow stuff on it. I understand staff is short but stuff like this can get people sick. Hand out plasticware if dishwasher broken. BTW food was great. read more

Yum! and GREAT prices! I love the lunch salad and half sandwich combo... its great to have an affordable healthy lunch option. PLUS something totally cool about Panera AND their website... say what you will about restaurants who flash up the calorie counts on their menus and websites... I happen to like ... but on the website, you can play around with an order and figure out the calorie count.. GENIUS! Sometimes I *think* I'm getting something healthy and then a cheese or sauce totally blows it out of the park, and I'm none the wiser... here I know exactly how and WHERE I splurge and I can make the decision pretty easily if I want to take the night off from the gym or burn baby burn at the gym because I just had to try something. That also being said.. seriously some of the best salads EVAR!!! My friend goes a few times a week for lunch and I'm totally jumping on the band wagon. We get it to go.. but plenty of seating within the store. I've been in a few times and this place is ALWAYS packed.. don't frett.. they will get you squared away and food in place pretty quickly. read more

The food was ok, but they have decided to not have people em receive your order.... I walked up to an iPad and ordered my food, sat down and was unimpressed by the whole experience. Dirty bathrooms, little to no pastry available. Not what I'm used to at a Panera Bread. Hope the whole chain hasn't adopted this hands off concept for a glorified bakery read more

On Sun 6-ish the place was out of almost everything, no more than 3 pastry selections, no baguette, no croissants, coffee was 1.3 hr brewed and counting. I would not recommend the premium signature steak and cheese sandwich, it is a joke but not funny. This is by far my least favorite Panera bread. For some credit to the place, the cashier was very nice, the seating areas very nice and clean comparable to other Paneras. Warm environment. read more

I placed an online order on 8/5 for pick up on 8/6 for 2 Cinnamon Raising bread that I wanted to ship my dad for his birthday in Puerto Rico. Early the next morning I received an email saying my order was ready for pick up but when I arrived to the restaurant, there's only 1 of the 2 breads I had ordered BUT THEY CHARGED ME FOR BOTH!! NO ONE had the decency to call me and let me know so I could make other arrangements. They wanted my business so bad that they did not care for the accuracy of my order. And this is the 2nd time this has happened too. Last time they also didn't call and then told me to pick something else from the racks when I went in for my pickup. NEWSFLASH!!! If I go through the trouble of getting on your crappy app to order a specific thing is because that's what I want! I just told my dad that Panera is discontinuing the bread, that way I won't have to step foot in that dump again. Needless to say, I'm furious my dad was disappointed thanks to Panera at The Forum. read more

I loveLoveLOVE eating a meal at a "fast food"ish joint from decent ceramic dishware. .. High fives, Pantera! Bread bowls are my second favorite food-delivery vehicle, and they absolutely nail that as well. I'm currently addicted to wrapping my carb vessel around potato soup, and filling a regular bowl with butternut squash ravioli (the arugula is an absolute perfect garnish there - make each other shine in divine symbiosis!). And the cranberry-orange-vanilla muffins are the best thing to come out of their bakery case, evar. Chai lattes are my fave bevvie - eclipsing even their PSL offering - but I really wish they had some dairy- alternative fake milks with which to make them. ..almond or coconut milk availability would get them 5 stars in my book. read more

I used to love Panera Bread in my former, meat-eating life, but now... it seems as if the appeal has left. Prior to giving up meat, I LOVED their Thai Chicken Salad which had a slightly sweet and sour peanut sauce that perfectly balanced the rest of the salad's vegetables from edamame to roasted bell pepper bits. Now that I'm in my post-meat-eating career (yes, career, haha), I was looking forward to seeing what options Panera has for us vegetarian folk. The answer is limiting, really. There's the Garden Salad, the Greek Salad, and the Power Quinoa Mediterranean Salad with maybe one or two soups to pair with it. There's a couple of sandwiches that didn't seem noteworthy, so I didn't really pay attention. Overall, the offerings seemed slim for a sandwich and salad shop. This time we were taking our meal to go so I went with the Mediterranean salad and Autumn Squash Soup. Overall, the salad was lackluster and was missing some flavors and had very little vegetables. I put some avocado on it when I got home so it at least had some healthy fat on it. The soup was great, but it was a little too on the sweet side. I would like to see a place use squash in their soup and NOT add sugar to sweeten it. Overall, this location is OK. The service is usually quick and consistent, but Panera is really just an overpriced sandwich shop that can be skipped in my opinion. There's other more inventive places to get a meal in San Antonio, if you have time and are willing to find them! read more

I come here often, and only a couple times had someone been very helpful with a great attitude. Today was different. Mike who helped us at the register was so patient and so kind. Thank you Mike! P.S. The girl right next to him (probably a teenager), wasn't giving the same experiences to the guests because she was in a rush to ring them up, could've been because there were a couple of people in line behind us. She also kept giving him ugly looks. I did not appreciate this. read more

The place was nice and clean. I went around 10:30am not crowded at all so the was no wait. I got to choose my own seat. I got a broccoli/cheddar bread bowl soup. It was very fresh and delicious. I would recommend this place for a quick meet up with friend or cause business meet. read more

Stopped by this morning, at 7:40am, ordering in person at the counter. Requested an orange scone and hot tea for dine in. Person behind the counter didn't know which one the orange scone was. Told her once then had to tell her a second time while pointing through case. She handed me the scone in a To Go bag, despite my dine in request. I also turned around to find no hot water dispenser sitting out and had to wait for that. The food is what is typical for Panera. The service was lacking today. If it was this poor at the time I arrived, it makes me wonder how poorly they must perform during that first hour in the morning after they first open. As a Panera Rewards member, I'm making a mental note to avoid stopping at this location as I pass on my way to work weekday mornings, despite them being open. read more

Was glad to be visiting a Panera's at the Forum as the closet one is a 3.5 hr drive. Must remember never to go to Panera's in the evening...at least not this one. Ordered my favorite soup and a sandwich...but the bread was so stale you could not bite it. Very disappointed that when I brought it to their attention it was seen as no big deal. ..I thought they would not want to serve stale, too tough to bite and chew bread to anyone else. As having been a customer of Panera's starting with inception of the 1st St. Louis Bread Co., very disappointed. Will checkout a different location but can't recommend the Forum location. Hope not an indication of the brand standards slipping. read more

Avoid this place if possible. Poor curbside pick up operation, subpar pastries and food for price, and unwelcoming staff. I placed an easy curbside order and was messaged my order was ready for pick up. I followed the instructions for the curbside pick up, but after 8 minutes of waiting in the car I had to walk inside to pick up my order. I walked up to the front register and the female employee did not acknowledge me despite me standing 5 feet from her. I asked if she could help me, and she then acknowledged my presence. I told her I was there to pick up my curbside order, and that I was messaged it was ready. She then went on to tell me that the order was not ready (not even my drink!), and that they did not have some of the items I had asked for in my order. I eventually had to ask for a refund because of the items I was told were ready for pick up were actually never there. I would honestly give this place a 0/5 star rating if I could. read more

Not good. Food tasted like the package. I could tell it had been prepared much sooner than when we arrived and definitely not fresh. It was as if I had gone to the supermarket packaged lettuce section and dumped it in a bowl. I was disappointed. Service is not like it used to be. Especially the sick crawling roach that was limping beside our chair. Yuke!!! read more

I give this place just one star and it should be zero. It's horrible here! They seem to never get an order right. Dirty silverware; do they have a dishwasher that works!? This morning I get there when they open and food is in the chairs, all over the floor. The windows where kids have put their dirty hands are still there from three months ago and the outside windows have dead bugs in spider webs. The past few months they have repeatedly been out of bagels, broken coffee machine for a week and the the ice machine isn't working! It's just terrible! You need to get several regional people in there to get this place up and going again!!!!!!' read more
