Panera Bread

You might as well change the store hours to closing at 8pm because you're pretty much closed by then. An hour before you're supposed to close and half the stuff is "sold-out"? How do you run a place with "bread" in the name when you have no bread?

Placed an online order on 2 separate occasions, both times they got it wrong 🤦‍♀️

830 a.m. open for 90 minutes. Out of plain bagels. Upon inquiry as to why, we were told they don't make bagels here. Not the first time the inventory has been completely depleted early. Poorly managed. Word seems to be spreading. The lack of customers at what should be a busy period was evident.

This is a pleasant and quiet low-key restaurant. It is a great place for students to study with their laptops and for other folks to enjoy sandwiches and salads. There several small booths and tables. Diners order their food at the counter and pick up their orders closeby once their assigned beepers go off. The bread selection is nice. The sandwiches are good but not huge.

Went for sandwich which was a sad rendition of other Paneras. NO bagels, and barely any unappealing pastries. Wow, I know it is off season, but close if you can't provide somewhat Paneras excellence.

Worst breakfast croissant sandwich I have ever had. Bland and small! For almost 9 dollars it should be bigger than a sandwich from McDonald’s or BK. And it was not! I’ve always thought Panera is way overpriced. But I thought they would have a better breakfast sandwich than Starbucks. I was wrong. Starbucks breakfast is 10 times better than Panera and you get what you pay for. And that’s kind of sad because Starbucks I think microwaves their breakfast sandwiches.. I took a picture of this horrible sandwich, sent it to Uber Eats, and Uber will not refund my money. Typical.

This Panera Bread is one of the worst I've been to. Me and my girlfriend went in for a kitchen sink cookie to find out they hardly have anything laid out and this was at 1-2 in the AFTERNOON!

We have gone in FIVE separate times and each time they didn't have the kitchen sink cookie. We talked to the manager and he said they don't get enough business which is why they don't put out enough pastries. He only makes 4 kitchen sinks a day and somehow each time we go in they don't have any available. Don't you think you should make more if you run out of your number 1 best seller before 3-4 in the afternoon? They throw away most of the pastries at the end of the night or donate them.

If you're having to throw away your food at the end of the night then get in touch with corporate and have them start doing 50% off at a certain time to make up for the lost goods. Many other businesses do this which helps in saving food going to waste/losing profit plus it brings more attraction to the store. Its a win win for both the company and the customer. Other companies like Dickey BBQ and Potbelly have amazing service and seems to care a lot more about their customers. We actually decided to go to Potbelly's right across the street because the Panera Bread lost our interest. This could have been all avoided.

Each time we are there it is decently busy just like an other Panera Bread. They are located right in the front of one of the busiest areas in town and somehow you don't have enough business? NO its the way you run the business is why you're not getting business.

We drive by it every night and each time the light that lights up the sign is off While every other business has theirs on! No wonder you don't have any business!

I hope this Panera Bread gets it together and starts taking the business and their customers a lot more serious.

*The photos are from different days and each time its before 3-4 in the afternoon.

I Would Give this Establishment a C due to the Lack of Cleaniness in Womens Restroom filthy Dated Mirrors sink gout floors:( Tables in Dining Room Crumby and Spotted with Previous Guests and All Windows and doors with Grimmy Fingerprints:( If you Look Behind by Pickup Work Areas where it all Happens does not look too Spiffy:( Surly Normally Love the Food at Most Paneras but this Store with all this Is A Big Turn Off! Surprised Pier Park Has Alot Of Elite Clientele Tourists Whom Shop and Visit This Area don't Think They Would Tolerate:(

When a customer complains about a salad you may want to check the salad base yourself. I trusted the employee to check this and got another rotten salad I'm not going back!!!!!!!!

Great experience tonight. Margherita and Sienna made that possible. GREAT attention to service and kindness. Thank you.

Every time I’m in Panama City Beach this Panera is my almost daily stop. As a Sip Club member, I benefit from free drinks, special offers such as a $.99 bagel and much more.

The great deal is not the only reason I come here. It’s always clean! The staff is very friendly. And it almost feels like my home away from home.

We stop at these across the states. This one was truly self service. There was about five to six people working. They didn’t have anyone at the counter. Call me old fashioned but I like an actual person to wait on me. I will say tho the food that we got was really good! I have no complaints on that. You really can’t beat the deal on the pick 2 deal.
