This is a brand new location only a couple months old, and they have some kinks to work out. But the service is good and friendly, the thai salad is as good as I get it anywhere else. My only issue is the paninis are a little lacking in ingredients, like the manager cracks the whip if they go over their allotted measurements.
I would give this Panera location 5 stars but I took one away for the lack of quality in staff.
First off, I'm a salad person so I love to eat Panera Bread's salads. Not too often because they're pricey but when I do, I like to enjoy it.
When they opened one in Green Acres I was excited because it was close to my house, but I knew "Green Acres" has a rep. Of course it was valid.
The staff making my salad was so ghetto and rude. They have a nice waiting area where you can see your name and if your food is being prepared and also you can see your food being prepared by the staff. That night It was two employees making the food. They kept saying "I'm not making it"…"No you make it"…..
I was soooo turned off watching them make my salad my gosh!
I don't understand!
Guess I never will. Good old Green Acres I guess.
But anyway, my salad was delicious of course. Fresh as usual. However I feel like that staff member that didn't feel like making my food did a good job at making my salad look the way he felt. Next time I'll check my salad and make sure everything is right before I leave that's all.
I will return but only because it's close to my house.
Thought I'd go in again and give it a second shot. Nope. Nope. Nope. I am not writing this review because I want to 'hate' on Panera bread for the sole purpose of it being in green acres. I want this place to win! This is my neighborhood. I grew up around here. I would LOVE to give this establishment a fab review but unfortunately I can not. Came here two days ago. I ordered a Turkey Bacon sandwich, A salad along with a bagel w. cream cheese………………….My sandwhich had no lettuce, tomato, OR (wait for it..this is the most important part…BACON!) My CHOCOLATE CHIP bagel came with the WRONG cream cheese (onion?..wtf) and my salad was whack. It lacked luster. I paid $23 for frustration. I will be avoiding this place completely.
I was never a Panera fan while I worked in Midtown for 8 yrs and I see now that it could have been that way because I had so many options. Now that they've slowly been slipping into the outer boroughs I slowly find myself falling in like.
So here's the thing. Panera to me is like the date you have fun with but would never introduce them to family per say. It's one of those let's keep it on the low type thing.
If I'm in a mall , I'd rather eat at Panera than one of those random mall food court spot where some random chick is forcing you to take her chicken on a stick. I'll pass. So under those circumstances Panera is a safer, cleaner and I can get soup.
I've been to this location a couple times.
The chicken soup is always a good idea
The chicken salad and almond sandwich or the turkey, cranberry avocado is the business.
Idk why but I also love their bread and cheese danish. Again, we'll keep these things between us.
I am annoyed by the constant dirty tables and the pick up area and the people who seem to use it as a rest spot and go full on comatose with level 10 snoring. Not here for it.
Other than Panera is fine with me. Let me know what you think.
This PB used to be amazing when they first opened . Now?! Ghetto staff. They are super nonchalant and take their sweet time making your food.
My to-go order was ready; 20 minutes late mind you and the man behind the counter calls to me "yo" like wtf. They still got my order wrong.
The staff gets younger and the service gets worse. Unacceptable ! They talk about things behind the counter that arent relevant to work .
I'm officially done ordering with them. I'll go to the one in Lawrence instead .
