Panera Bread in Springfield

“I don’t normally write reviews, but this Panera location has tremendous customer service. I had ordered my meal to the wrong location (over an hour away) and Sean and Emily were so kind and remade my meal for me so fast when I was short for time. Will be coming back here over and over. I highly recommend this location, good food and amazing management.“

“I always enjoy this place. Bright and airy and clean. Service is always excellent. They've changed their bagel recipe! Why? Not crazy about it. Too light. Tastes like bread. I'll still be back. I just will miss their bagels. They were so good!“

“Phoenix the Bearded Dragon here, reporting with full dragon approval! 🐉✨
Mama Bear Lennox grabbed our clan Panera on N. Kansas Expwy. by The Library Station, & it was such a bright, welcoming experience. We did the Mix & Match with the Fuji Apple Chicken Salad & the Toasted Italiano, & everything was fresh, vibrant, & exactly what our bodies needed. The children happily shared the sandwich, bread, & even some of the chicken from Mama Bear’s salad, while she got to enjoy the Dragon Fruit Sunrise Refresher; which felt perfectly fitting for a DragonApproved outing! I even enjoyed a few tiny salad bites myself! The staff was wonderful, kind, & patient, & one sweet lady even thanked Mama Bear for her patience. The flavors were immaculate, the atmosphere was warm, & this meal felt like a little sunshine blessing. Highly recommend!“

“This is my favorite Panera in Springfield, MO. The staff does an amazing job, and Linda manages this staff really well. Their hard work and great personalities pay off. The food and drinks are great, and are consistently good. If only the corporate pressure on prices could be priced more realistically, the review would be better, but Panera Corporate and the industry sets the outrageous prices, not this staff.“
