Panera Bread in Alexandria

“Staff was great. I heard how they helped other customers and the manager, she engaged a lot and helped out. Constantly cleaning the dining area. I noticed there were a good amount of (maybe)homeless people in the restaurant however, they weren't treated indifferent at all. They have $10 & under specials too.“

“10/10 on everything! :) Food is delicious and on time! The workers truly are busy especially the weekends, but I admire how kind and helping they are even under pressure. I watched this worker be jam packed making the food yet still delivering an amazing smile. That’s truly service. 100/10🩷 Perfect for family meals!“

“Food is typical Panera. Coffee bar is there. They get it done quick and have the typical ordering pods near the actual register as well as a pick up area and status board.

This Panera has something others don't. The young person there when I ordered was genuinely interested in providing great service, kind, and actually wanted to be good to everyone that came in. They even seemed to recognize regulars. Even if it was fake, it was appreciated.

Only negative was that there wasn't any place to plug in my laptop, but I get it. Still a nice surprise compared to the one near me.“

“Aleah — Sarah 🫶🏻🙏🏻 .

These two friends are very friendly. Although I don't understand English very well, they solved my problem immediately. Also, the coffee tastes great. I'm new to America and I'm very happy to be here. Thank you, friends, thank you.“

“It was good, I liked it, however, I've had it better at another location, but they still deserve 5☆ overall. I did appreciate the kind and friendly staff, very efficient, and quick to accommodate your needs.

Love the 2 for 2 idea, I like trying as much as I can, so it makes it easy.

Barley and Wild Rice Soup was interesting, Creamy and thick.

Sandwiches are always great, I enjoyed splitting them with my mom.“
