Dined inside the restaurant during Phase 2 of shelter in place. There was no line to order. All employees were wearing masks. There was a table placed between the cashier and customer for physical distancing. Ordered a You Pick 2 combo of half a frontega chicken sandwich and Caesar salad, a half Mediterranean salad with quinoa, and a full Tuscan chicken sandwich. Sides were baguette and a bag of chips. The salads were fresh and the sandwiches were warm and flavorful. In the dining area, every other table was sectioned off as not available for physical distance. We did see an employee buss and sanitize tables when we first sat down. However, as it came to nearing finishing our meal, we noticed customers couldn't find an empty table available as those weren't yet bussed and sanitized promptly. That's where the minus one star comes in. Would suggest Panera to have another employee help buss tables. Even though there's a sign on the restroom doors that the restrooms are cleaned and sanitized regularly, it's not enough when I went to use it. The stall I was in was out of toilet seat covers, TP on the floor and the sink counter area was full of water and spilled soap. I'll continue to dine here because of their fresh salads and great sandwiches! read more

Ordered online and picked it up but before leaving I checked my order to make sure everything is good as they had already messed up a couple of my previous order. I ordered a margherita pizza and chipotle chicken avocado melt. The margherita pizza only had cheese and tomatoes in it and when I complained how come there's no basil I was told that they ran out of it. Why don't they at least inform the customer and give them an option if they still want it or get something else. To make matter worst when I got home and took a bite of the sandwich right away you can tell it doesn't taste right. Instead of using chipotle chicken they put in an old grilled chicken that tasted like 2 days old already. So disgusting I could not even eat it. Probably need to report this place to food inspector it seems they're recycling their food. Although I called and spoke with the manager she offered me a full refund. I still won't go back ever to that place. With 3 STRIKES NEVER AGAIN! read more

Panera Bread - Disgusting old tasting grilled chicken and it's supposed to be chipotle chicken - Sandwiches Near Me - Vacaville, California

Ordered through the Panera app, food order was wrong with different customer name. Called Panera, employee answered and said that doordash took my order to someone else. Situation sucked all around, but if you're dropping $30 and a tip, it would be nice for Panera employees to double check orders before handing them over to doordash. And if Jacob G from doordash delivers, make sure you really double check because someone else's dinner will be sitting on your front porch lol read more

I stopped in on Monday this week 12/13/21 around 1pm and was very disappointed. First of all there was one cashier a young man and a long line but no one came to help check people or take orders. I ordered a bowl of soup and he kept asking me if I wanted something else I said no thank you and he just kept asking if I wanted a pastry or something more I said no just the soup. It was annoying. Many tables were empty and not cleared off and it looked messy. When I went to pick my soup it was poured hastily in the bowl and all over the rim and Looked unappealing. The kitchen staff was loud and unprofessional. As I was leaving I noticed a girl cleaning tables and she was just wiping debris onto the floor. Management needs to review these areas of concern with staff or it will continue. read more

The food is an absolute let down. Coffee and tea is the only reason I give this location two stars instead of one. I ordered a Sausage egg and cheese sandwich on a brioche bun. It sounds delicious right? Wrong! It came out in a matter of minutes, though it seemed impressive, as soon as I took a bite, I was hit with a cold bite of sausage and egg. Staff immediately took it back and apologized. Second time around was better but the taste was so bland and unimpressive. I hear time and time again that the food at Panera isn't all that great, and I must agree. I normally swing by for a grab and go coffee. They have a self check out stand where you can just pay for your coffee cup and go. Personally, this is an awesome feature. Overall, my experience was flawed by the food, but coffee is always good, and fresh. read more

Panera Bread - The worst breakfast sandwich I've ever tasted - Sandwiches Near Me - Vacaville, California

Let me first start by saying the service on the phone and in person has always been OUTSTANDING and was this time as well. But after placing an order for delivery, this is my last time eating at Panera! Not because of service but because of the outrageous prices! Ordered 2 bowls of soup and a "group-sized" soup (supposedly feeds 4-not) for a sick neighbor and paid $58. I thought for sure at this price there would be leftovers but there was barely enough for the initial meal. Had to apologize to my neighbor for the underwhelming gift I delivered. What a ripoff!!! Panera, you should be ashamed! read more

Panera Bread - $58 worth of overpriced Panera soup!!! - Sandwiches Near Me - Vacaville, California

The food is good but for almost 8$ for a salad I got less than a half cup of lettuce. It's just sad that they skimp on the food and charge so much. I guess it's just who is working that day because some days I come in and it looks like the picture and more often no it looks like the bowl is over taking the salad I just gotta stop coming here. ‍ read more

Driving through on our way home and we stopped at Panera because we love their delicious and fresh lunch items. Wish we would have read the rating first. I ordered an Asian salad and couldn't eat more than a few bites because there was an abundance of brown lettuce. Brought it to the young man who said he was the manager and he responded in an "oh well" kind of way and walked away after I told him about the lettuce color. He refused to take the salad to inspect it so I left it on the counter and walked away. We also had a pepperoni flat bread order and it was good and that's the reason for any stars at all. Horrible manager response and salad. Now we will not be so quick to stop at Panera on future road trips. read more

Great food! But why are the utensils always dirty. I really dont mind water stains but the one i got had flaky residue on it. So i asked for a new one but the new one i got it had some dried cheese/spinach on it so I just ended up cleaning it myself in the bathroom cuz i didn't want to keep asking for a new one and come off as a karen. Like cmon at least pick out a utensil that looked somewhat clean. read more

very slow in there so no excuse for poor cleanliness. workers chatting in the back and the bathroom is disgusting. If bathrooms are bad, it's a sign of what's in the back. also they play the music way too loud so it's blasting in your ears the entire time you're there. they must want people hanging around too long. food's not good enough to put up with that nonsense. they need to do better and maybe replace the manager read more

Worse Panera location I've been to. A couple workers treated me like trash. Let me begin this by saying the older workers there were very friendly, but this was heavily contrasted by a couple of younger workers at this location. I simply ordered one smoothie and was waiting to pick it up. After a couple minutes, I start hearing a couple workers say "Who would order this smoothie?"... and I was right behind the counter. I'm not sure if it was on purpose, but I gave them the pass there. Then, they make the smoothie, set it aside, and never call my name to pick it up. A few others that ordered after me got their food before me... Then, I get my drink and once again I overhear them say "That smoothie has been there for a long time"... which was followed by some giggles as if this is some gossip/secret that was hard to contain. The drink was already quite melted. I don't understand what happened. I didn't want to tell them to remake it because I felt uncomfortable with them remaking it (and risk them putting something in the drink). These people need to be retrained or let go. It is as simple as that. read more

I waited 45 minutes for my food. Just for both orders of my food to be wrong. I was very dissatisfied.

I'm done with Panera. So overpriced, mistakes in the order, anemic sandwiches, long wait, messy bathrooms, poor service. Last three experiences in different locations were all regrettable. read more

Went here for dinner, on my way from Roseville to Santa Rosa, and while the sandwich was good, it wasn't a $12 sandwich. (Turkey, bacon BLT) I liked the sandwich with the cranberry walnut bread, but hardly any turkey. The broccoli cheddar soup was very tasty, but I had ordered a large bowl and was disappointed to receive a very small portion. But it was hot and yummy. Just wished the portion size was larger. Seemed like a lot of money for a very small portion of soup. I liked the sandwich and the soup, but the soup portion was small and the sandwich lacked a decent amount of filling. Is the company trying to cut costs? Seems a poor decision as I won't go back. Too much money ($19) for meager portions. read more

Today my daughter and I went in and had two fountain drink orders with our food. As soon as we went over to the fountain machine, so many fruit flies were flying around it!! More than what I can count! There were even bugs flying around the restaurant around tables and our food. I'm sorry, today Panera just lost a customer. I highly recommend that the fountain machine get a proper cleaning and anything else in the place that continue to attract all this flying pests. read more

I have been going here for many years.. its always well kept nice staff.. They have such a great variety of food for every one and fresh yummy food & pastrys. However the one in Vacaville has gone above and beyond the managers there are amazing! I got my order one day and it wasn't correct a manager took it back he made it gave it to me free and gave me dessert, no questions and very apologetic it was just a simple sandwich but what service. So we all know things are challenging today with Covid.. I went in I got my pic two and I didn't check my sandwich, like I said its allways fine as a rule. I got home they gave you wrong sandwich ‍I called and asked if they can just put my name in the books as a refund next time I come in..the frount staff put a manager on immediately the manager apologies..then said can I have your address we will be there soon Deliver to my door a full sandwich delicious now that's customer service during the covid it's amazing service.

Panera Bread - Napa chicken almond salad sandwich. - Sandwiches Near Me - Vacaville, California

Just okay. With all the other restaurants in Vacaville that serve soups, salads, and sandwiches, I would likely choose to eat elsewhere. We were in a rush and needed a fast bite for breakfast, so we didn't have the luxury of time. We ordered using the kiosk by the door. We took one of the pagers and sat down to wait for our food. It look a long time, so we went to the pickup counter to check on our order. It turns out they don't use pagers for to-go orders - good to know! Our food just sat there getting cold. Ugh! For what we paid, the food was just okay. read more

First timer to Panera. Went in for a breakfast sandwich. It was early in the morning, asked for a ham, egg white and pepper jack cheese sandwich on whole wheat bagel. They don't have pepper jack cheese. What? WHY? The guy behind me even said that's a mistake, why don't you have the cheese for breakfast and lunch? Then I was told they are out of whole wheat bagels. Wow, it's pretty early to be out. Ok, I will have whole wheat bread. Sorry, don't have that either. We have honey wheat bread. I don't want that but I'm irritated now and holding up the line so I agree and pay and wait for my sandwich. Well, what a joke. My bread was soggy in middle and burnt on the edges. I threw the bread away and ate the one white egg and half ounce of ham. That's what I paid $5.50 for.? NO THANKS. FIRST TIME AND LAST TIME TO PANERA! read more

Panera Bread - $5.50 for this? Hell no! - Sandwiches Near Me - Vacaville, California

I was at Panera Bread Vacaville today with five friends for lunch.There was nothing stellar about the food. Not one person said anything about his or her food being good. I had ordered one of the chicken salads, the large portion. Their first attempt did not have one piece of chicken. I went back and asked about it. They remade the salad. The second attempt had hardly any chicken at all. There was nothing redeeming about the salad at all. I will not be going back. read more

Another staple soup and salad place in Vacaville. I love that their menu is seasonal, ensuring that you get the best ingredients at their peak season. Every summer I get the Strawberry Lemon Poppyseed chicken salad. It's just so colorful and beautiful, and the dressing isn't too heavy or creamy. Their hours tend to be busiest between 12-2 so just be aware that you may wait in line for a few minutes. But service is prompt, and people move out pretty fast. Also, if you need a change of scenery from the typical coffee shops you study in, they have outlets for laptops and comfy chairs. read more

This Panera location is just like any one of your average Panera restaurants, except some of the staff weren't too friendly the day that I went (which was on a weekday before dinner). The food is similar to what you get at other Panera restaurants as well. Although the food here is delicious, just like any other Panera location, this specific Panera restaurant doesn't really stand out to me. Yes, it's in a great location, so you can dine here after shopping. But, other than that, I don't see anything impressive about this particular restaurant. 3 out of 5 stars. read more

Driving from Davis to the Bay Area, I didn't think it would be super busy on a Saturday morning but their line was to the door! Yet the workers were prompt and still had smiles on their faces. For $2.79, I got a toasted cinnamon crunch bagel with chives and onion cream cheese. (If you dine in, it's like a quarter more) It sounds like an odd mix but I very much enjoyed it. It's a best of both worlds: sweet and savory! I got a sip of my friend's iced green tea and it was so refreshing! It reminded me of a less sugary Capri Sun. I had work at 11am but we were here in Vacaville taking our sweet time enjoying our breakfast. Then I realized the time and so we had to rush out to get going. I ended up only being late 5 minutes, so I have no regrets whatsoever. It was well worth the pleasant breakfast at Panera. read more

WRONG ORDER!!!!!!! Visited Panera tonight and ordered 1/2 green salad and 1/2 autumn squash soup. Even tasted 3 different soups prior to making a decision based on the caloric content. The order takes awhile ... I get home unwind/bathe , and finally open the bag ... annnnnd its the wrong overpriced soup. Mind you Panera is expensive and the rest of my dinner was a green salad and I'm clearly not dressed to drive across town. I call , let them know they gave me the wrong item and that the squash soup was listed on my receipt. Brandon offered to link me to a manager to provide a voucher, puts me on hold, and I hanging up after waiting for about 7-8minutes with no one answering. I call back multiple times and the line is "busy" . I finally get an answer and Brandon apologized, told me he notified the manager and thought he had picked up the phone . He said my name was in the system and I could return later for the voucher. read more

Up until today, we have always loved doing business with this Panera location. We appreciate the delivery service during quarantine and the food has been top-notch. However, when we received our order today, my husband's sandwich contained rotten avocado and about half my salad contained blackened lettuce. So much for fresh ingredients. We have just crossed off this Panera for future business. They couldn't offer a replacement sandwich due to a problem with third party delivery, blah, blah. We opted for a refund and will not be doing further business with this location. read more

I'd heard so much about this chain, so when I finally had an opportunity to try it out, I was stoked. The mac and cheese was dang tasty and really hit the spot. The bacon turkey sandwich was disappointing. First of all, if I'm going to order bacon on anything, it better be real bacon, not this wafer-thin, 1/4 inch wide pre-cooked microwavable bacon wanna-be that they slapped onto my sandwich. Lesson learned. You order your food, pay for it, walk away with your number on a little metal stand, then sit down and wait for someone to deliver your food. Service was quick and friendly. BUT THE BACON THOUGH. read more

This is my pit stop Panera on my way from Sacramento to the Bay. Easy on/off the freeway and lots of parking. They are super efficient and fast. The employees are friendly. They are never out of items like at some other Panera locations. Their coffee is good - they have several kinds to choose from. I mix the hazelnut and the dark roast together with some cream. My favorite breakfast here is the Four Cheese Souffle. I also love the chicken salad sandwich. read more
