Description

Tucked into Hanford, CA, this Panera offers reliable bakery favorites, soups and a productive, family-friendly atmosphere with free parking and Wi‑Fi. Guests praise food quality, quick service and clean restrooms, making it popular for study sessions and casual meals. However, inconsistent cleanliness (dirty floors, ice buckets), occasional inattentive staff, menu changes and perceived high prices create variability in the experience. Overall a convenient spot for quality café fare, but expect occasional lapses in sanitation and service.

Over priced just like other chains but for Panera..it's high They changed the menu, so if you have a fave like I did when I go to Panera then check what they changed. FYI I asked for mayo, they use to have the packets but apparently the cook in the back told me they no longer carry mayonnaise all together but offered me garlic aioli spread. My rating is from my experience only. They still have great customer service.

I feel scammed. This guy gave us the most plainest, saddest abomination of a chocolate croissant. Who makes a chocolate croissant with only two droplets of chocolate inside? The whole point is for it to be chocolate. Then he comes up and says it's like $16 bucks, along with three cups. That doesn't make sense. I thought it might not be that bad, it's a chocolate croissant. And then I take a bite into it and am immediately met with plain bread. If not for the chocolate on the top I would have thought I got a plain croissant.

@Panera.... who 's corporate bird brain thought it was a good idea to take favored items off the menu??? No more Orange Cranberry Muffins, replaced the Cinnamon Bun with some nasty type Cinnamon Roll and the list goes on. The Bakery section looks pitiful. When I asked an employee what was going on, she replied that corporate decided to simplify the menu! No, corporate you are losing customers over your poor decision. I won 't be back!!

What I have ordered has been good. Service at the front is good. There has been a couple of times my order was messed up but I just chalked it up to it being lunch time. The restaurant is very clean. I would go back and do...

Anytime I come to this location the food is great. You get in and the food is served in a timely manner. I've been here at least 10 times over the span of years and haven't had a bad experience. This location is always quiet and clean. My go to is the bacon turkey bravo sandwich. My fav soup is the turkey chili and my new fav is the chicken and bacon flatbread pizza.
