They have really gone downhill in the last 9 months. Service is slow. Eating area is typically messy. Carpet is dirty. Kinda like they just gave up on housekeeping. The iced coffee is great. Sandwich portions are small compared to competition in the area. They need to pick it up a notch, lot of other choices out there. read more

When I changed the way I ate and cut out meat two years ago Panera was my go to spot. Its easy to order to go or dine in. My kids and hubby love it too. It's like fast food health food. Staff is always accommodating and helpful as well. I love the freshness of the ingredients and the care taken to prepare it. read more

Chris was amazing! It was busy and he had a wonderful attitude. Please give this man a raise!

I really love the fact they had kiosks where you could order from instead of standing in line and waiting. When my food came however the sandwich was not quite right but I didn't mind because the chicken noodle soup was absolutely delicious! I wish I had gotten a bigger bowl, the fruit cup I had was also very good and tasted fresh. I LOVE that they have a selection of Frescas at the drink station. I will definitely be back! read more

SUCK IT, STARBUCKS [at the Forum]!!!!!!! A great escape from the often overcrowded and underwhelming Starbucks at the Forum. No competition or jockeying for seats or parking, no annoying drive-thru customers trying commit vehicular manslaughter, unlimited free coffee/tea refills, real food, larger dessert and bread selection, soda is an option (for kids), free wifi! The good: - unlimited refills on dine/drink on coffee/tea/soda - free wifi, probably faster due to less people to compete with - more parking - more seating - real food choices - larger breads/dessert choices - fun to refer to as "Pantera Bread" The notsogood: - coffee selection is not as large as Starbucks (no frappacinos or $5 mocha java trentas in sight) - which is fine, since I don't go for those type of foo-foo drinks - people watching is not as interesting versus some of the whackjobs that wander into Starbucks - closes earlier than Starbucks - "scenery"/talent can be lacking versus Starbucks (guys...oh, you know ;-P) - Coffee "on tap" can be a bit "aged", since the volume consumption does not seem to be on the same level of Starbucks (where brewing more is a necessity...unless it's Veranda/Blonde, which they [Starbucks] always seems to be out of). When I'm at the Forum, I'll only choose Starbucks over Panera in the following situations: 1. Panera is closed 2. Panera is being attacked by bugbears (D&D reference) 3. I have a Starbucks gift card. 4. My wife or friends INSIST on Starbucks. 5. somebody else is buying read more

I've been to Panera multiple times and I've got to say I'm hooked! There are days where I crave it! My first time here, I was with about 5 other friends and I was overwhelmed because I didn't know what to order. My friend suggested I order on the kiosk because there are pictures and you can customize your foods. I decided to play it safe and get the Tortellini Alfredo. I think I requested to add in chicken. It was yummy and cheesy! Second time I came in, I went right to the kiosk again and gotten a "Pick Two" combo. I had chosen half a Chipotle Chicken Avocado Melt and customized it by adding lettuce, pickled red onions, tomatoes, and cucumbers. I also got a side of Mac n cheese and chips. I only drink their water so I have no say on what their drinks are like but oh my! The sandwich is delicious! It's on the smaller side so maybe if you want something more filling, get the full panini instead of half. And their Mac n cheese is just the best I have tasted. I don't like too much cheese but they got it on point here! Their chips are normal potato chips but I'm also hooked on that haha. Love it here! Update: took off one star because I bought a large Mac n cheese and it costs $8 (fine by me) but cmon. Fill it to the top... read more

My mom and I came here for a quick brunch of half a sandwich, a cup of soup, and a pastry. We were greeting warmly and the interior of the restaurant was very clean. I choose the turkey and avocado BLT with a cup of French Onion Soup and a Shortbread Cookie with icing in the shape of a flip flop. The turkey sandwich was a nice size with good flavor. The soup was tasty but was only warm. I wish it was a little more on the hot side. It was still tasty though. The cookie was excellent with a nice buttery flavor. My mom had a turkey cheese panini with broccoli cheddar soup. She said both were excellent and that soup was super cheesy. We also opted for a Baggett bread as our side which paired well with our soups. Definitely check this place out! read more

order # 153598203 We ordered a delivery from Panera at the Live oak Forum and it was about 1.5 hours before we got our order when it was promised by 45 min. The order was wrong as someone decided that since you were out of Pepsi then a diet soda would be ok without asking us. The salads were warm and I received some balsamic dressing for my ceasar salad. So I called to get a refund and to drop of this order and manager said eat the meal he will refund my card for whole amount. after 7 days of not seeing a refund I called and talked to Ashley Howell assistant manager and she emailed me this: "Good afternnon, Rene! I apologize about the service you received with your delivery on October 1st. The quality of the food we sent to you did not meet our standards by any means. We aim to triple-check every single order for 100% accuracy, and we failed to do that with your order. I went ahead and did a full refund for your entire order. I'm unsure of what you and the previous manager had agreed upon, but I'm also aware that you waited far too long for your compensation. The refund did end up coming out to $1.15 more than you had spent originally, as the pastry item was not discounted when I refunded it. You should be seeing the refund go to your bank by tomorrow morning. If you don't see it on there, or have any addition questions or concerns, please feel free to call the cafe and ask for me again. I'd be more than happy to help you out with anything else you may need. I appreciate your feedback, and we will use it to continue coaching our team so we can provide the best service possible. With that, I'd also like to invite you back in order for us to replace your meal and give you a better experience than your previous visit. You'll have to come to the cafe, but we'll take care of a full meal for you. When you place the order, let the cashier know that I spoke to you and offered a replacement. Thank you so much for allowing us to make amends, and we hope to be seeing you again very soon! Ashley Howell Assistant Manager Cafe #4453 (210) 566-4880" so this past Monday Oct. 23rd i called in the order and sent my wife to pick it up and then this happened, so I sent this email to Ashley and have not gotten a response: So sad that we will never set foot in any Paneras again. I just sent my wife to pick up the order and the general store manager Robert Matye basically called my wife a liar and said she had to pay for at least one of the meals that you had already said you would cover. Anyway he belittled her and made her feel like she was some poor beggar trying to cheat panera out a free meal. My wife said also when she turned back after receiving the bags of food from Robert that he was making a face and some jesture at her while her back was to him. Your whole crew was standing watching all this and snickering at her. I will be contacting your corporate office to formally complain to them regarding our experiences with your Panera. Thank you for the refund and replacement meal but it was not worth the trouble we have experienced. Robert Matye is such an unprofessional manager that I would like to know how we can formally issue a complaint against him, because of him we will never visit your store again and we were loyal customers since 2009. all of this was sent to the owner of this location since it is not a corporate location. read more

Yum! I had the half sandwich and soup combo which came with your choice of chips or apple. Filling and relatively healthy lunch for less than $8! They also list the calorie counts on their menus which is a huge plus in my book! We went during the lunch rush but my food was ready in less than 5 minutes and there were still several tables available for dining in. The staff was courteous and helpful. They cleared our dishes almost immediately after we had finished eating. I'm definitely coming back! read more

Panera Bread is remarkable. Fresh bread, Fresh soup, Fresh salad... The sour dough bread bowl full of soup and a half of a sandwich is a killer combo for lunch or dinner. The service is normally quick, so week day lunches are a most, Don't forget about stopping in before work and picking up a dozen bagels or scones. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu, read more

I love Panera so much its so fresh and flavorful idk how they make it taste so fresh but it's so cool and because I'm an introvert they have digital ordering stations so you put your order in without human interaction at all lol but the food comes really fast and again fresh. read more

I stop by for fast convenient service and to cram in 30 minutes of quick lunchtime study. Food isnt bad but last 2 times the internet didnt work. Looks like I need to find a new lunch spot. Assistant manager said internet may be spotty when it's busy but hardly anybody in here! read more

I always feel good about myself when I come here. It is one of the few places around here that sell healthy foods. People here are always very helpful and service is fast. I do think they ran out of items really fast compared to some of the other Panera I've been to. One time I was there at noon and they had already ran out of my favorite soup, the garden vegetable soup. I was disappointed because they rotate their soups and that soup is not always on the menu. That's probably the reason why when they did offer it, it ran out so fast. They also don't really offer you an option of chips/apples/bread all the time if you order the half/half may be because those items also tend to ran out? I'm not sure. Otherwise the food is always delicious and reasonably priced for a healthy meal. read more

I happen to love Panera Bread and this location is the closest to my house and I am very grateful for that! This specific location at the Forum is always clean and fully stocked. I have ordered online a few times and the order is always correct and on time. I love the new touch screen system that they just installed too because it lets me play with my order and pick and choose different items! read more

Terrible costumer service experience. I left so frustrated by the lack of respect and decency at this Panera bread. I just felt very disrespected and unappreciated as a customer here. read more

Food/Taste: A I ordered a Bacon Turkey Bravo which consists of smoked turkey breast, applewood-smoked bacon, smoked Gouda, lettuce, tomatoes and their signature sauce on whole wheat bread with a french baguette and vanilla cupcake. Selection: A What's nice about Panera is that every few months they go thru and revamp the menu and move new items in and maybe slower traction items out. This location had a nice selection of baked goods around 2-3pm when we arrived, whereas a lot of locations I visit are half-empty by this time. Service: C My order took in excess of 15 minutes to arrive and they ended up putting my sandwich on a bagel which does't even make sense, but because I was on a lunch break at work, I did not have time to wait for them to remake the order. As stated above I also ordered a baguette and declined chips and I still received chips. Price: B For the portions of food, the prices are fair. Final Thoughts: Panera now offers online ordering for it's San Antonio locations! read more

How does a Panera bread run out of bread and how does a cup of soup cost $6 and not even come with bread. Worst Panera I've ever been to.

My husband and I are definitely not that hard to please when it comes to food! but my oh my we love this place! We eat a lot of soups and salads on a regular basis and this has been our spot since we moved to TX. Their bread is always so fresh & delish! First time around we ordered full portions the Cream of Chicken & Wild Rice (best soup EVER!) with a Cesar Salad, we shared both items and were full by the end of our lunch meal. Portions are well served !! Second time we had their Chicken Noodle soup with the BBQ Chopped Chicken salad! Hubby loves BBQ so he sure loved this Salad!! I had to take a star for cleanliness. there are times when tables aren't clean. For a place that is always busy with customers, there should be more tables clean and available for customers. But...Like I said this is the new Saturday lunch spot, will be back this weekend!! read more

I normally don't care much for chain restaurants but Panera Bread is the exception. Their menu is simple and basic but yet fresh at the same time. They have different salad options as well as soup options. This as well as an assortment of different sandwiches. The kid menu is friendly, I mean who doesn't like Mac n cheese? My grandkids are off the kids menu and ordered a Mac n Cheese and a ham sandwich. Daughters ordered a bigger portion of Mac n Cheese and a seasonal green salad. Overall, the portion sizes are just right and the food is always fresh every time I hit up a Panera Bread. read more

It's my first time here and I can say that I had a great experience. They have a really good and fast service. Good place to study too! read more

Pretty solid place, has all the updates for the online experience. Plus the food is always brought to you. Clean inside and out. Including silverware. 10/10 would come back! read more

I really like Panera's menu, but this location will not be getting my business again. We ordered a half Fuji apple salad and a half tuna sandwich. The salad didn't have all its ingredients, like a normal green salad with some apple chips on it. The runs was watery and not spread evenly, so globs of it fell out of the bread. Finally, the dill pickle spear (poor thing) looked very tired, dehydrated and ready for the compost pile. I'd wondered why this store wasn't as busy as I'd remembered, and now I have a clue. read more

Rude staff, rotten food, and super limited selection of pastries (the were all "unavailable"). I did not get my salad dressing on the side of my salad (I did not receive any salad dressing at all). When my food was delivered, the worker told me they were all out of the cookie I ordered as my birthday pastry, it was annoying because they seemed to be out of every other pastry too. After he walked away, I realized my chicken Caesar salad had no caesar dressing. I went to the front and asked the cashier for a container of salad dressing which took her awhile to get because she got tied up talking with the other staff (the store was not busy at all). I paid extra for toppings I never received and when I asked that it be remade because random toppings were added, I received attitude from the cashier (the same one which I got my dressing from). I asked that it be to-go because I didn't want the rest of my party waiting on my salad. I finally got my salad remade, which they conveniently made out of slimy, rotten spinach. The manager delivered it to me and I apologized for being such a hassle and even he gave me attitude, which my party found hilarious because they could not believe after the terrible treatment and quality, even the manager was rude. I apologized for being needy and the manager said "it's fine, you just wanted it the way you wanted it," which a snarky attitude. I couldn't help but think to myself "no, I wanted it the way I ordered it." I thanked him and cleaned my table so I could leave. I also asked for lettuce which was nowhere to be found but at that point, I was fed up. I paid over $30 for two salads, half a sandwich, two drinks, and a fruit bowl. The quality of my food was worth about $5, I should've just gone to McDonalds. I will NEVER return to this store, they are horrible! read more

Saw the sign that they deliver, the web app said that they don't deliver to my address in Schertz. I'm 3.2 miles away. I called the store, evidently they have a time limit on delivery and not a mileage radius, meaning if traffic is heavy, you are out of range and they don't deliver to you. Wow!!! I think they need to take another look at their "delivery" strategy... read more

Very clean, laid back environment. The service was efficient and the food is delicious. The restaurant is always clean and the perfect spot to get away and focus on any mobile work you may need to accomplish. The staff is very friendly and always make you feel welcome. I will definitely be coming back! read more

Our sandwichs barely had any filling in them. I understand the ingredients are better quality but that doesn't mean you cheat people out of food. For the price paid, definitely disappointed. read more

I like this Panera location. I never have any problems with my order or service. The food is always good & the staff are always nice.

Panera has been a routine Sunday am breakfast on the way to church. I've always been a fan of Panera aka St. Louis Bread Co (for my St. Louisian peeps) but being able to use the app to order your food (even specifying bread slicing my bagels). All you do is go to where you pick up your food and it's sitting on the shelf with your name on it. You pay through the app. Very cool and quick. read more

I met a friend for dinner after work at this Panera Bread, last week, on Wednesday July 26th. and I had a chicken salad, and I got sick. I thought the chicken tasted weird, and I know I should have said something then, but I didn't want to appear like a difficult customer. I guess I should also mention that when I ordered my salad, I was told I could pick chips or an apple for my side, and I asked for bread, since that's usually one of the sides too. The cashier told me that they didn't have any bread. I was very surprised, since that's what they make, right? That's their "thing"? That's part of their name. I asked them for a piece of the bread that I could see from the counter and they gave me a piece of stale bread. I tried it and it was bread that they should not serve with any of their meals. I wonder if that's what made me sick. My friend and I stayed there, talking for a while and when I went home, I started feeling sick. I threw up and had diarrhea that night and a couple more days after that. I'm never going back to this restaurant. read more

If you're hungry avoid this place. Their portions are tiny and they charge full price.

I love panera , I eat there way to much. I have to say my favorite location is at the quarry. This location is always busy and the tables are always busy. I've never been to this location even at 2pm and not had to clean off my own table. Other than that, I have no complaints! They did take away the turkey chili ... why!? One of the healthiest options other than their many Salads. read more

I'm so glad I can come to a place where I can pay $10 for freaking soup and salad and bread! Extra for a drink, as well!

We usually love Panera...not today. Not sure what was going on in the kitchen but it translated badly on plates. The chipotle chicken sandwich came out mostly fat, the caesar salad lettuce was brown and they dumped crouton crumbs everywhere. Thai wonton soup was good but not hot, mac and cheese was also cold. The counter help was unhelpful and unfriendly. This location we will not return to. read more

I am really a Tim Horton's kind of person, but this is the next best thing. I truly don't see why people are so into Starbucks when the coffee is more fresh, food is made right then and there. and is much cleaner than any Seattle based Capo establishment I have ever been to. Keep up the great work guys. I have no interest at all in Starbucks when you guys are around. read more

Service was fine, however, the dead beetle beside the ladies room door combined with the two dead beetles that the attendant brought outside and dropped right next to our table where we were eating lunch with our son made us sick! read more

Very disappointing experience today. Ordered 3 French onion soups with half steak and cheddar sandwiches. Food came out quick, but soup was almost room temperature and sandwiches barely had any meat. One sandwich has almost NO meat. Our bill was almost $40 and I feel so cheated. To top it all off I can't even connect to wifi here to post this review. read more
