Panera Bread in Orlando

“This was my first time having Panera in many years, and I'm happy to say that it didn't disappoint! The food was excellent and fairly priced, and our server Conner was very attentive, professional, and made sure we were satisfied and happy with everything we ordered. Would recommend!“

“A nice Panera with plenty of seating, a relaxing atmosphere and close to the hospital
While in the area visiting a relative in AdventHealth Orlando, we decided to stop at this Panera Bread for lunch. It is conveniently located almost directly across the street from the hospital, making it an easy place to grab a quick meal whether you're visiting someone, attending an appointment, or just passing through. Like most Panera Bread locations, you can order at the front counter, but they also have self-service ordering kiosks if you prefer to skip the line. Panera has been around since the 1980s and has become known for offering fresh soups, sandwiches, salads, and baked goods that are a little different from typical fast food. On this visit, we decided to split one of their salads, and it was excellent. One of the things I like about Panera is that they offer salads you don't often find elsewhere, such as the Fuji Apple Chicken Salad, which has a great combination of fresh greens, fruit, chicken, and a light dressing. Our food was prepared quickly, and everything was fresh and very good. I also like that this restaurant seems to always give you real plates and utensils not plastic silverware and paper plates. The dining area was clean and had plenty of seating options, including booths, tables, and a few quieter areas if you're looking for a more peaceful place to eat or work for a while. Overall, this is a very nice Panera with friendly service, good food, and a convenient location, especially for anyone visiting AdventHealth Orlando. We enjoyed our meal and wouldn't hesitate to stop here again. Enjoy!“

“I stop by the Panera Bread on Apopka Vineland & Conroy Road often, and I have to say—this location is exceptionally well-managed, spotless, and consistently delivers great food and great service. But what truly sets this Panera apart is the amazing team behind the counter.

Beverly, Amanda, and Grace deserve special recognition. They are incredibly polite, efficient, and genuinely a joy to see every day. No matter how busy or how long the line gets, they manage it with ease, professionalism, and always with a smile. Their positive energy makes the entire experience better and keeps everything running smoothly.

Employees like them are the backbone of any successful business. Their dedication, attitude, and customer-first mindset create an atmosphere that makes people want to come back. Panera is lucky to have such outstanding individuals on their team, and I appreciate the effort they put in every single day.

5 Star Plus - Highly recommended location!“

“Chance is such an amazing person, hardworking, and it's a good asset for his company he has amazing customer service very helpful very organized , very sweet and polite, and we just love him, i definitely recommend this place, and he deserves all the credit, god bless him!!!😁“

“I come here often to get work done, and I always have a great experience. The workers are always quick and get my order correct every time. If you’re looking for somewhere you can order food ahead of time, and have a nice quiet area to work this is my go-to.“

“Erene is the perfect face to greet you after a long flight. She had enough energy and welcome , she could have gave our hotel shuttle driver some training.
Great attitude
Great good
Staff here are friendly and welcoming
Clean location
Appreciate the outdoor area as well.“

“Sorry but I find the food to be close to inedible, especially since Panera stopped baking in house. That was the whole point. However... I frequently pick up here as a doordash driver and the food is always ready on time and the staff is always friendly! So I do appreciate that. A lot.“

“I wanted to take a moment to recognize Elijah, who was my cashier this morning. He was absolutely the ray of sunshine I needed! His genuine smile, kindness, and positive attitude truly made my morning.

Every associate at this Panera location is always so pleasant and welcomie. I have a long drive from Winter Haven to Orlando, so I’m pretty particular about where I stop for coffee. Panera has become my go to morning stop, and it’s because of experiences like thiis. Thank you, Elijah, and the entire team, for consistently making my mornings a little brighte!“

“This is one of my favorite Panera Bread locations when visiting Orlando! The staff is always super friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The restaurant is consistently clean, well-maintained, and has a great atmosphere whether you’re stopping in for breakfast, lunch, or just a coffee break.

My biggest tip: use the Panera app and order ahead with Rapid Pick-Up. It’s incredibly convenient, saves time, and your order is usually ready when you arrive. The food is always fresh, and the service is consistently excellent.

If you’re in the area and looking for a reliable spot for a quick meal, coffee, or bakery treat, this location is definitely worth a visit. I’ll be back again on my next Orlando trip!“

“I'm very disappointed, first I get to the drive-tru, and I ask for the Italian Stuffer Roll by itself, the girl tells me that they cannot sell it by itself, after a while, somebody else tell me that they don't have the bread, but I was offered the sandwich, that uses the same bread. The service in this location have been decreasing over the years, what a shame.“

“It’s 10/26 5:39pm. The kids here are absolutely sweet, kind, polite and respectful. They are welcoming and communicative. One of the kids gave us extra bread, the other made me coffee even tho they are closing in 30 mins and the girl working is very sweet. They are cleaning, emptying the trash- just being very hardworking. I really appreciate you all. Continue to work hard and go after what you love in life. with your personalities, the world is literally yours. Thank you!!!
