This is the second time I have been to the Panera bread on South avenue in boardman. I had one the WKBN contest and had free Panera bread coupon which I used but my boyfriend's pick two came to 20 some dollars!! There were no napkins in the dispensers and no paper towels in the bathroom and all of the employees were just standing around doing absolutely nothing. The one guy that was in fact moving kept passing by our table repeatedly looking in the trash and then pacing the room going back several times. It was really awkward. We will not ever be back! Very disappointed it is basically glorified hospital food at a ridiculous price! Don't bother! read more

This place sucks. Came here to get food and they fucking closed early. Worst Panera ever.

Best Panera sandwich I've ever had. Got the toasted garden caprese and it had a good portion of tomatoes and mozzarella. Perfectly made. Wish I lived closer to this Panera. read more

so slow... drive through ridiculous .. they do not greet you and leave you waiting for over 10 minutes ...still waiting ...so much reget!

Dude if you are going to send food out. Make sure it is not from the night before. Cold as ice

I've given up on this location- my order is always either wrong or they are out of something big, like cups. They were out of large cups when I was there but instead of telling me, after I paid they handed me two small cups and told me to fill both. They are also out of ingredients like avocado quite a bit. I've gotten the wrong food 3/5 times I've been here as well. The employees that I have interacted with seem to have no idea what they are doing. Maybe they have many new ones but then ask- don't continuously give the wrong order or not give a pastry because you can't find a box. I can't believe management hasn't been changed as many issues as this location has. I love Panera and have no problems at all with any other location but this one...it's baffling how bad it is. read more

My husband & I had sandwiches while at Cleveland Clinic at their Panera location. He had the Bravo bacon turkey & I had almond chicken salad sandwich. They were both awesome & loaded but a bit pricey for just a sandwich & apple! A few days ago we went to the Austintown drive thru & ordered the same. It wasn't worth our money at all. My chicken salad was such a small amount I mostly tasted lettuce, tomato & bread. I was very disappointed!!! Will not return for sandwiches again!!! read more

Seems as if the food portions and quality has slowly diminished here. Over time the attentiveness to the people preparing orders has been obvious. read more

Panera Bread - Not very good bacon mac n cheese, half of a half order?? Really Panera? - Sandwiches Near Me - Youngstown, Ohio

This Panera has a better layout and design compared to other locations. It's beautiful and cozy inside with lots of space between tables and the front ordering area for a quiet, peaceful dining atmosphere. Last night my boyfriend and I decided to grab dinner here and I was disappointed with the lack of bagel and cream cheese selections. Almost every flavor of bagel and cream cheese was sold out. We ended up getting two bagels and a large salad to split. I highly recommend the Strawberry Poppyseed Salad! It's in season and available around spring/summer time. As I've already mentioned, the dining atmosphere was perfect! Bathrooms could use some updating/remodeling though. Staff members were nice and friendly. Food was pretty good other than lack of selection and it was consistent with the food of other locations. Overall, I would recommend the Austintown Panera. It's the perfect atmosphere for dining, studying, and hanging out! read more

Zero diversity. All visible associate young, white, and female. Also, all of them were rude. Ignored my thank you's and huffed and puffed we visited forty-five minutes before closing. I've ordered the same vegetarian option for a long time and while it being discontinued was not new information to the server; it was for me. A little smile and empathy goes a long way. Food mediocre. Won't be back. read more

Ordered through the drive thru which is a great feature. Problem is, they have now gotten my order wrong twice & I didn't notice till I got home. Called this time to complain about two missing items, they took my name and said I could pick them up next time with a free pastry. I'm fine with that response. However I then sit down to eat my Mediterranean Veggie sandwich and there is barely any humus in it. That's the main ingredient I would think! It was like eating a feta and tomato sandwich. Very poor quality control at this Panera. read more

Panera Bread - Barely any hummus on this Mediterranean Veggie. - Sandwiches Near Me - Youngstown, Ohio

I used to love Panera, it was my go- to for good, wholesome food fast. That was then-this is now. The restaurant used to be spotless...I mean clean and I'm a clean freak. Now, not so much. I used to be able to order my food and it was waiting when I arrived, not now. I have to wait. But I thought the point of the pre-order is so that I don't have to wait? I also enjoy certain sandwiches that contain certain types of breads, but inevitably they're always out of tomato bread for the Bacon Turkey Bravo. It isn't the same without it. So, like everything else, a good place has gone bad out of sheer laziness and a Lexa Daisy attitude about being the very best. read more

Who doesn't love salad and soup with delicious pastries?? I know I am not alone here, I went into the Austintown one and the atmosphere was great! The options are plentiful and the staff was courteous, they have you put away all your dirty dishes at the end and no table service, but so quaint. I love it for a change up if your typical mom and pop restaurant read more

Staff is always friendly and most of the time they are really quick too- even during the busy lunch rush. Occasionally I get a lag when it comes to speed of drink orders, but that's typically because there's only one person making drinks and they can get bogged down in a rush. All the food is fresh and tastes wonderful. I really enjoy their new chicken soba noodle bowl. It's amazing with such great flavor. I am disappointed that they've taken a lot of items off their menu recently however, including the french onion soup and most of the paninis. read more

I paid over 10 dollars for half a sandwich that I ate in 4 bites and about 4 oz of macaroni and cheese. Who would throw their money away like that on a regular basis. The food is good, but the price is beyond ridiculous. I will NEVER go back. read more

The price is a bit high for cafeteria food. Their bread is good and the broccoli cheddar soup, but that's about it.

2nd time I've been here (austintown Ohio) in two weeks. The first time I got the complete wrong order but didn't realize until I was too far to go back. I forget what they gave me but there was stuff on it I didn't like so after picking everything off I ended up with less than half a cold sandwich. Tonight I went through and only got a cinnamon roll and asked to get it heated. Got down the road and stopped to eat it-ice cold and hard. What a bummer when you're looking forward to a warm cinnamon roll. read more

All Paneras taste the same, it's good. Staff is friendly and quick.The atmosphere is nicer than most in the area, much cozier. It's a nice one to get coffee or lunch at and meet with a client or get some work done. I enjoyed going here as a college student to work on homework. read more

Why oh why do they have kids waiting on customers ? I stopped in tonight for a sweet treat while the young man was ringing me up a quick coworker had boxed up the treat. The only problem with that was I look forward to choosing my sweet treat as I treat myself about every 6 months. Needless to say the young man had rung up the wrong treat and the young woman had boxed the wrong treat. As I was choosing my treat I noticed the price was 20 cents less. When the young woman did not offer me the refund I had to ask. I say all this to say I have been very wary of this place since on take out I was served Chicken noodle soup with no noodles. Children in restaurants as workers need constant monitoring. read more

Do not order carry out from this location and expect it to be ready when you pick it up. The last four times we ordered carry out, the cashiers looked at us dumbfounded about the order; they can never seem to locate it. And don't fax your order and expect them to have it ready at the time you request it to be ready. I was told that if they don't hear the fax machine beep they won't check it for orders. read more

The staff was friendly, patient and prompt. My party ordered a couple pick 2, bear claw, coffee, and a loaf of tomato basil bread. We also pick up bagels here regularly every other week. All the baked goods are excellent. Other foods such as the turkey chili and chipotle avocado chicken sandwich were mediocre and bland. On a really good note, this location has a fireplace with two comfortable arm chairs and side table that make for a nice cozy time on a cold day. read more

This location the food is always good but seems to never get my order right when I get home there is no phone number to call them back and I am not going back for a $ 5 item, not worth my time. Last night my order # was 207304 cashier ZOTE and I got home and my banana strawberry smoothie and no croutons for my soup either. Drive thru takeout is not convenient when you get home and order is not complete Doubt very much that I will shop here again good food, bad details to service takeout orders ...staff needs training read more

Yuck it used to be good now everything tastes processed, what happened!? The quality is definitely lacking.

Really confused why I just had to pay 6.99 for one piece of meat. Ridiculously over priced. We used rapid pick up and it was close to close which I wouldn't have ordered if I knew that. However, my chicken noodle soup has like 5 noodles and my boyfriends sandwich looks like this. read more

We stopped into this location a few days ago while we were in town over the holidays to meet up with some friends for lunch. This Panera is relatively standard, and as you'd expect a Panera location to be. The food we had was good (I had the Fuji Apple Chicken salad and broc/cheese soup while my husband had the chipotle chicken avocado panini and the tomato soup. The panini is one of our favorite things on the menu! So delicious!) The ambiance is very nice with there fire going on cold days and there's always a few coffee choices. They could give a little more attention to the cleanliness of the restrooms, but overall it was a great time and we ended up spending a couple hours there chatting. We'll be back when we're in town again! read more

I would not give this location any stars if that was an option. Placed an order online for pick up. Returned home not all items were in the bag. Called to inform them of the issue where they were rude and short on the phone. In addition they were unable to resolve the problem. read more

I stopped in this location yesterday for dinner. It was Veterans day and they were busy but not unusual for a Friday night. I just wanted to applaud the staff, they never missed a beat. While the preparation staff pushed out orders, the manager was on the pick up side double checking orders and maintaining a smooth process. I want to single out Macy the cashier, she was so pleasant and collected. I visit this location often and thank them for continously providing great food and service. Thank you for also honoring our VETERANS every year!!! read more

The food is great here! I love the bacon turkey bravo and the Caesar chicken salad. My fiancé loves the BBQ chicken salad. The only downside is that it gets pricy, but the food is so fresh! read more

It's disappointing that they took away potato soup on Saturdays. They have it on Mondays and Wednesdays and always sell out. You would think they would make more and serve it more often if they are always running out of it. Apparently who ever runs that part of the business is not interested in making a better profit or pleasing customers. read more

I used to like going to Panera, but their food and service continues to decline. Their bagels taste like baked bread, not the texture of a true bagel. They have reduced the size of their servings. Getting your order correct is another issue they have at this location. I have decided to stop going to Panera, only as a last resort. read more

I absolutely love it here. The atmosphere is wonderful and the food is great, too. It's a great place to meet up with a few friends to eat and talk. Try to go earlier in the day, when the pastries are fresh :) read more

This panera bread is below average, the service was polite and friendly, but the condition of the restaurant was below average. The food quality was just ok. The potatoes soup was under cooked and bland. The italian combo sandwich was also not well prepared. The best thing about this place was the bread. read more

For what you pay for a sandwich here you would think they could at least put something on it! The last few times we've eaten here there was practically nothing but bread it didn't matter if it was chicken salad sandwich or another kind it was ridiculous we haven't eaten there again it's been over a year it's too bad because they have good food they just don't give you hardly any of it!!! Not worth your money read more
