**Dining Review: A Mixed Bag at Panera** Panera offers a familiar ambiance but has seen a decline in recent quality. Frequent inaccuracies in orders and below-par food preparation—such as burnt chicken and spoiled dressings—have disappointed loyal patrons. While staff maintain a friendly demeanor and the service remains swift, some locations struggle with supply chain issues, leading to inconsistent menu items. However, even in less-than-ideal circumstances, some diners find redeeming qualities in the restaurant, such as a cozy atmosphere for work and efficient ordering systems. Overall, Panera is a convenient choice, though it may not meet the high expectations set by its earlier standards.

Was Albert Dévaud at Panera Bread a mag?
I stopped by here over the weekend and it was not busy whatsoever. It was quite inside. I haven't had Panera in a long time because it is not my favorite place. But the people who I were with wanted to stop in. So we did. There was no line and you can now order on an iPad and grab a buzzer when your food was ready or they can text you when it is.

What Julio Sawayn dislikes about Panera Bread:
I've been a longtime customer, but unfortunately, this place has really declined. Half of my recent orders were incorrect, and I even received spoiled dressing on the salads. It seems like management doesn't care much anymore. I'm not the only one who feels this way. I gave it two stars because the food was prepared quickly, but I just wish it was what I ordered and not spoiled. It's really disappointing since this u... View all feedback.

Nice and clean. The food was really good. My only complaint is that the seating is a bit crowded.

Typical panera, clean friendly staff. panera must have supply chain problems. back in minnesota they were made of pecans for salads and well maintained tweepers for white cheddar and steak sandwich two weeks in order. here they had pecans, but we are from the plucked wobbles for the white cheddar and steak.

I hardly ever come here and I don't know why. the crew is super friendly and it's the best cheese broccoli soup I've had in a long time.

I ordered turkey chili and a chicken avocado melt. It came out to about $13 with a bottled water. Which was not terrible of a price for the size of the soup bowl. The tables weren't the cleanest but the environment was nice if you needed to do some work.

Visiting Quincy for a work trip. I stopped at Panera and it was different compared to the ones in my home town. On this particular trip the kitchen staff seemed a bit overwhelmed. The dining room was about half full, so didn’t appear busy, but the food was coming out slowly. That being said the food I received was food quality. They were out of bottled water I had ordered, but they easily replaced with something else. Not a great experience, but not awful either. Average for Panera quality with somewhat slow preparation of the meals.
