Panera Bread - Chestnut St, Murray

Great food, quick service, food very fresh, cant beat the bread bowl.

Panera has an experience you come to expect and this Panera doesn't detract from that standard experience. The food was delicious and the restaurant was very clean. However, I knocked some points off for service. I came in on a cold day wanting to get a soup bowl, and they had run out of soup bowls a few hours before close. Understandable, but there seems to be a disconnect between par for the baker and demand for a chilly day. Also, the food for the order before mine sat a good while. The young lady calling orders didn't have a very loud hollering voice, and the customers had no idea their food was ready to be collected. I waited about 5 minutes for my take out order to finish, and at that point I went around and collected the other guests myself to make sure they got their food warm. Seems evening service leaves a little to be desired, which is understandable given the tasks they have to complete before their shift ends.Parking: Parking is all over and around the building, as it shares a strip mall lotWheelchair accessibility: Couple of wheelchair access ramps and good grade. Also good clearance for someone who is wheelchair bound to move around.

Good food in a familiar atmosphere. Came for their great salads. The only drawback is their food is quite pricey compared to other places. Also, they are still soliciting for tips at the checkout counter. You'd think with their prices, they'd pay their employees and not try to draw tips at a fast-food setting.

Food would be better if served hot not warm The Bowl of Chicken Wild Rice Soup The $12.99 Steak White Cheddar was tasty but skimpy on the Steak.Toasted Ciabatta Bread is on Cue However not enough for the Price Weigh meat know how much you get Would like to Purchase Meats by the Pound Deli Style The Raspberry Crem Cheese Pastery Ring was good

I like the food here ...it's just way way overpriced for the small portions you get, and you only get like 5 bites of food. I understand they use healthier fresh ingredients but I just can't pay $30 for 2 people at a drive thru very often.
