Panera Bread in Fredericksburg

“A unique looking Panera. I've never seen one with this layout, but it was better and faster than most that I've ever been to, and I'm a regular at this chain of restaurants. It was clean and the people were actually friendly. The guy working the counter was helpful and personable, and manager on duty even asked how everything was and took a passing second to say hello. Even though we were just passing through, I will make this a stop every time we're on our way back from the beach, as it's the perfectly distanced location for us.“

“I go through the drive thru at this location frequently when I’m only getting a sip club drink. On more than one occasion, when there is a line, the employee (Connor) offers to bring it out to me if I can safely backup to the door. I haven’t been able to do that, however I really appreciate his thoughtfulness and his willingness to shorten my wait time. He’s also very pleasant when we get to the window and always has a smile on his face. He’s an asset to this location.“

“Food doesn't seem as good as it used to be. The staff was very helpful and patient while inquired about their new entres

Vegetarian options: There are few things on the menu. The Mediterranean sandwich is pretty tasty.“
