Brand new, everything's fresh, nice staff.
Friendly staff !
So happy to have a Panera in Punta Gorda! I went to the grand opening, I was #8 in line. I should probably have a payroll deduction for as often as I come here lol!! The staff is always kind & friendly , the food is delicious and always prepared perfectly with beautiful presentation at the perfect temperature. I signed up for the sip reward program, (sip club) I highly recommend people to join. I love drinks and I'm always able to change it up. This place is taken great care...read full review

Panera Bread in Punta Gorda has quickly become a popular spot for locals, especially since its grand opening. Customers have praised the staff for being kind and friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The food is often described as delicious, with favorites like the broccoli cheddar soup and baguettes receiving particular acclaim. However, some visitors have noted occasional issues, such as the unavailability of certain soups and missing ingredients in sandwiches, which can be disappointing.
The location is kept clean, although some diners have mentioned that the decor feels sparse and cold. Despite these minor setbacks, many appreciate the attentive service, particularly from the management team. One customer highlighted a manager’s quick and helpful response to a minor issue, while others noted specific staff members who went above and beyond to ensure a great experience.
Overall, Panera Bread offers a solid choice for a quick, healthier meal, with a menu that includes sandwiches, salads, and baked goods. While there are some kinks to work out, many customers are eager to return and enjoy the quality food and friendly service this location provides.
