“First time here. The reviews give the impression that the Grand Blanc store is better. I can't speak for that, but I can say, the young girls doing the register and food prep were great and super helpful. They choose for me and I got the Southern Tradition with chive cream cheese. It was huge! A little messy with the extra cream cheese, but absolutely worth it and the taste was great! Thank you so much for the great first time experience. When I'm in Fenton, well be back. Glad we didn't go to McD's instead. They also kept the store clean while we were here. Nice job for the young girl who did so.
And there 6 day old bagels were a steal for $5.50+tax. Thanks for pointing those out!“

“From the moment I walked into Panera, it felt like stepping into a warm little Christmas café straight out of a holiday movie, and Avery was the reason why. With a smile as welcoming as freshly fallen snow and an attitude full of holiday cheer, Avery made the entire experience feel special. It wasn’t just ordering food—it felt like being greeted by one of Santa’s most hardworking elves (but 6’2), making sure every guest felt cozy, cared for, and right at home.

Avery’s customer service was truly top-tier, the kind that belongs on the nice list year after year. Friendly, patient, and incredibly attentive, Avery made sure everything was perfect, from the order details to the timing. Even during the holiday rush, Avery kept things moving smoothly with grace and positivity, like a Christmas miracle unfolding behind the counter. You could tell they genuinely cared about making each customer’s day a little brighter.

The food was already great, but Avery somehow made it taste even better with their warmth and kindness. Whether it was recommending the perfect soup to warm up on a cold winter day or making sure everything was just right, Avery added that extra sprinkle of Christmas magic to the experience. It felt less like fast-casual dining and more like being served a comforting holiday meal by a friend.

Avery really deserves a raise.

If you’re looking for a Panera that feels festive, welcoming, and full of joy, this is the place—and Avery is a huge part of why. They bring the Christmas spirit to life with every interaction, turning an ordinary visit into a cozy holiday memory. Huge thanks to Avery for spreading cheer, kindness, and warmth—Panera is lucky to have someone who embodies the true spirit of the season 🎄☕✨“

“The coffee here is amazing and the honey bagel was especially delicious. I have been at the hospital for 2 weeks and the service has been very consistently amazing! Thank you Brooklyn and Lauren for being the best and friendliest baristas ever!“

“I appreciate all the “clean food”. I have A LOT of food allergies and am allergic to preservatives, so eating at Panera gives me not only peace of mind, but many healthy options! Thank you for giving me a safe place for myself and my husband to enjoy a healthy meal together.“
