“Gotta give Panera Bread credit, new portion menu is a superb, (only I prefer the old whole pepperoncini peppers) but it was a very good salad and sandwich. There is a lady that works the counter - believe her name might be Ms. Rhonda (sp?) was so pleasant and friendly and made dining in so much better. I hope she doesn’t leave.“
“In from Colorado because mother is in hospital. Doing shifts with family to be with her. Headed that direction early for my shift. Familiar with Panera and wanted a good meal and time alone.So I pulled in to the Raeford Rd location. Just as my order was called I received a text asking when I was going to arrive at the hospital. Asked if food could be put in to go box and apologized for the inconvenience. I told why and the team lead was so kind, made sure I had everything and even asked if my mother had a favorite soup as she was reaching for the container. Mom is not eating soup at the time, though. How kind of everyone at the Panera, but especially that lead.“
“What can I say... I'm a sucker for a sandwich & some soup or salad. ESPECIALLY when it's on Panera's home made bread. OH!!! You've GOT TO TRY their soup in a bread bowl. DELICIOUS!!! Especially their French onion soup. WOW! My kids though grown still call their Asiago bagels "stinky bagels" and they/ we all LOVE THEM. It's almost always peaceful and a great place for relaxing or catching up with friends & family.“
