    I love panera in general but why is it everytime I order from the Brooklyn Park one it's never as good. It's always salty 🤦🏻‍♀️

    I have eaten at many Panera’s & this is the worst one I’ve ever done a review for because it’s AWFUL! A friend bought me “grilled” sandwiches here twice, they were not really grilled…more like a normal sandwich with melted cheese! The turkey tasted off, hope I don’t get sick! The last one was chicken and I definitely threw up! I would never buy from here! Will also let my friend know to please never get me food from here again! Be careful with this place.

    $12 salad—Panera Bread fail. Worst value I’ve had. The “Asian” salad arrived with barely any romaine—nowhere near filling the container—and the rest was forgettable. The photo on their site? Not what I got. Hard-earned money wasted. The baguette was just tossed in the bag like napkins. For this price, it’s not worth the trip. And everything was plastic—fork, knife, cup, dressing—needless waste. I don’t know what happened to this place, but I’m out.

    VERY slow drive thru line. Not even a lot of cars. 3 in front of me. It’s like this every time I come.
