Panera Bread. Food as it should be.
I've been to at least 10 different Paneras throughout California, and they have always been just ok. But this location in particular was the absolute best Panera I have ever had. The bread was fresh and fluffy even at 7:30pm. The food had far better flavor, everything was prepared correctly, and it looked good and not just thrown together. My expectations for a Panera have forever changed. Bread bowl was crisp but the inside was fluffy. Each bite of the turkey bravo you could taste every ingredient individually, not just one mashup of the same taste. I hope it's always as good as it was here.

Picked up a bowl of Broccoli Cheese soup and I was given a bowl of colored water and 2 small pieces of broccoli. Called the Manager who advised when he returned from lunch he saw the soup was watery and threw it away and refunded the cost. All good but are the employees so stupid that they didn’t notice the soup was of poor quality? I don’t know how much they get paid per hour but they are a clueless bunch. I’m glad I didn’t leave a tip! I will never go back to Panera in Riverbank. Hold people or businesses accountable maybe they’ll get better employees to control quality!

The girl working the window acts like she hates her job and it hurts to smile. I would not have her working the drive thru.

Amazing the bread is made with only 3 ingredients the way it should be and always fresh with no workers with attitudes that hate their life and take it out on the customers eating any other fast food flace besides Panera is dumbfounding
