Working at Panera Bread was possibly the worst decision I've ever made. While I genuinely enjoyed interacting with customers and striving to provide them with the best experience possible, the staff situation left much to be desired. I often took photos of the restaurant and the food to document it, but with just myself managing the register throughout the busy breakfast hours, I barely had time to do anything else. I felt sorry for customers spending money on overpriced food that didn’t meet their expectations. I tried my best to assist customers, but being the sole cashier until 1 or 2 PM made it incredibly challenging. I had to juggle making drinks, preparing bagel orders, fetching pastr...

I live in Phoenix and travel for work all over the country. I often visit this particular Panera due to a local project I'm working on, and I have to say it's the worst Panera I have ever encountered. Customer service is at an all-time low. While the cashier was friendly, that’s where the positives end. Every single time I order here (and I mean literally every time), the food is not prepared as requested. Often, it’s not even what’s advertised! I’ve been to this Panera over 20 times, probably because I’m a glutton for punishment, but this visit finally pushed me over the edge. All the negative reviews I’ve read are spot on — the place is dirty, the customer service is subpar, and there’s tr...
I live in Phoenix and I travel for work all over the country. I frequent this particular Panera often because of a local project in working on, and when I say this is the worst Panera I've ever been to, I mean it is the absolute worst Panera. Customer service is at an all time low. Cashier was friendly, but that's where it ends. Every single time (literally every time) I order here the food is delivered not as ordered. Often it's not even delivered as advertised! I've probably visited this Panera 20+ times, because I'm a glutton for punishment I guess, but this time finally broke the camel's back. All the negative reviews so far I've read are true, dirty, poor customer service, garbage all o...
My daughter and I dined at this restaurant today and were genuinely impressed by the friendly and cheerful attitude of the entire staff. Everyone appeared to be in great spirits! Since my daughter has celiac disease, it can be challenging to find restaurants that cater to her dietary restrictions. We were pleasantly surprised by the cashier's extensive knowledge about her condition and their respectful approach in handling it. We highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning! Book a table now
Update!!! I noticed a girl with long dark pink hair wearing rainbow tie-dye Crocs, who was digging her nails in her ear while eating right in front of everyone. She only partially washed her hands before preparing food. I'm convinced that if a health inspector had visited today, this place would have been shut down.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the young woman at the counter. She noticed my retired Army cap and inquired if I was aware of their Veterans Day special. I wasn't, but she ensured that I received my complimentary meal. Thank you for your kindness and support!
The restaurant was incredibly unclean. I advise against dining here; if the state of the kitchen is anywhere near as poor as the seating area and restrooms, it surely wouldn't pass any health inspections.
Restaurant was absolutely disgusting. Do not eat here; if the state of the kitchen is something like the seating area and the bathrooms it could not happen inspections Book a table now
Good healthy fresh food and nice atmosphere and they do need to be better with their customer service besides that I enjoyed my lunch there.
This is an excellent spot for a quick lunch meeting. I particularly enjoy the chili served in a bread bowl and their coffee.
