She ordered the pizza with flat bread, chicken soup and mango smoothie. Café Panera Bread is located on Chico Square Market Square. It was 730ish pm when ordered, and they close at 9 the dining area/seat place was not clean, which was disappointing because we are in probably short staff or something, but we are in anyway. Customer service was great, they were very friendly and had good moods you know... Panera my daughter enjoyed the food!

I also gave it 3 stars for atmosphere because I am still confused whether this place is supposed to be a fast food, cafe or a sit and dine restaurant. For the price of $16 per person and nice indoor and outdoor seating it feels like a restaurant. But the drive thru makes it feel like a fast food joint.

When my partner ordered salads for us for lunch, I requested a half size one due to the large portions typically served at restaurants. However, for over 7$, I was disappointed to receive a small side salad consisting of only a handful of lettuce, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, a few croutons, a small cup of dressing, and an apple on the side. There was no meat included, and the salad seemed hastily thrown together in less than 10 seconds. While the ingredients were fresh, I felt that the price was not justified. Next time, I will opt to pay the same amount at Raleys and get a Seafood Louie salad that is three times the size.
