About Panera Bread

Panera Bread is a popular restaurant known for its consistent food and beverage offerings across all locations. Customers often praise the quick service and commend the management's efforts to address any mix-ups or concerns. The restaurant's coffee, breakfast sandwiches, and new menu items like the Southwest Chicken Ranch salad are particularly well-received. While there have been occasional issues with wait times and order accuracy, the overall experience at Panera Bread is generally positive. The location is busy during lunch, with a very spacious parking area available and plenty of tables for a quick break. WiFi and a cozy fireplace add to the pleasant atmosphere. Food quality is very good, especially the bread, bagels, and pastries, with the broccoli cheddar soup being a favorite. However, some customers have noted that the floors were filthy and the restaurant could benefit from a remodel to address peeling wallpaper, damaged seating, and cleaning issues. The restrooms are sometimes in need of better maintenance, with old tiles and holes. Despite these problems, the restaurant remains a great place to enjoy a quick meal and a relaxing environment, with friendly staff like Brittany Blackwell contributing to a positive experience.

We had lunch yesterday at the Gunbarrel Panera Bread. We had an order for four and the salads we ordered were very fresh! The self serve coffee was great too!
The tables and bathrooms were clean! If you experience a wait please be patient so many of our eating establishments are overwhelmed with guests and understaffed. They need our patience. If you need to wait and order here when you are not in a hurry definitely do that! Most places have order in the app options so even...read full review

I just phoned this Panera trying to order soup to be catered to an elementary school faculty.
I explained to them that I needed the soup by 10:30 because that's when the teachers started eating.
The person I spoke with was disappointingly unhelpful.
She told me that i there was no way for me to order soup and pick it up or have it delivered by that time.
Very unhelpful and rude.
I'm very disappointed with how I was treated. 😢
