“I've been a longtime fan, but the menu has definitely evolved over the years—and not always for the better. I really miss the fresh black pepper focaccia bread they used to bake daily. The bread and pastries just don't have the same freshness or quality they once did. It feels like the restaurant has shifted toward more economical ingredients, and you can taste the difference. The meats, in particular, don't seem to be the same quality they were before COVID. While I understand that many restaurants have had to make changes, it doesn't feel like the Panera I used to love. The prices have continued to rise while the portion sizes have gotten noticeably smaller, making the value feel a bit off. I do appreciate the $4.99 menu, but the options are very limited. The Pick Two is still one of the better values. That said, I still enjoy their salads, and the broccoli cheddar soup is always a favorite. The staff is consistently friendly, welcoming, and provides great customer service, which keeps me coming back. I just wish they would return to the fresh, clean ingredients and quality they built their reputation on. Bringing back the fresh bread alone would make a huge difference.”
