Breakfast Menu "Panera Bread" Zephyrhills

It was our first visit to a Panera, and we will be back! Hubby had the melted Gouda & Black Forest Ham. I had the 1/2 Southwest Chicken Ceasar Salad and Autumn Pumpkin Soup! All was delicious! We also got the 1/2 price sweet treat... a cinnamon roll for breakfast tomorrow!

We went in sometime before 8pm, they close at 10pm. With 2 more hours in their sevice day they were out of the bread for the sandwiches they have photos of plastered all over the windows and menu boards, out of baguette bread, out of bread they give with soup, out of bread bowls. The self serve hazelnut coffee was barley warm and watered down to the point that it did not even taste like coffee, to stretch it I recon verses making more. The medium blend was ice cold. The light roast was hot and tasted as it should. Ohh, and the pitchers of cream/milk were empty...just... seriously? $51.00 for: one sandwich and medium soup; one bowl + soup pick two combo; one regular coffee and one black cold brew; and two brownies. plus we had to BUY bread to go with the soup because they were out of the bread they give with soup... yet had bread to sell as well as at least 50 bagels they could have substituted. THE FOOD WE HAD: my Wife's Baja Bowl was missing one of the sauces you can see in the images on the website. My tuna sandwich did not have enough tuna to cover the bread. Quality and quantity very underwhelming for the price point. The soups were very good and the highpoint of the meal, the little tuna present did have great flavor, and the brownies were fantastic. SERVICE: Our experience was two fold here. Firstly, the kiosks to put your own order in on had some very official sticky notes on them with "kiosk down" written in pen; I suspect because it's easier to have people order at the counter than it is updating the system for 1/2 the things on the menu that have run out for the day. The counter attendant, Ken, was still training/learning. But, he was very nice, very patient, and very helpful as he had to go to the back and ask several times if they were or were not out of certain things or if we could do substitutions for the breadless Bread company. I felt bad for him since due to the open kitchen we could hear the snarky, nasty, and impatient way the gal in the back was addressing him each time. I'm pretty sure she was new at one point too. I'd like to say it again, Ken's good attitude and friendly disposition turned around what was otherwise an almost completely negative experience. Keep your head up Ken and keep learning. Don't let BOH asshats break your spirit and you'll be running a store some day while they are still scrubbing ovens and flour out of grout. Ms Bad Attitude informed Ken when he couldn't find where the large cold brew was on the register that cold brew only comes in a small size....as I stand pointing to the menu where it lists pricing and calories for small/large plain cold brew. An assistant manager comes out and tells us you can only get a large cold brew if you buy one of the flavored versions with all the syrup, cream, and sweetener ....again, as I stand pointing to the menu where it lists pricing and calories for small/large plain cold brew. Finally a third employee comes around, showing Ken (still training) how to swipe over on part of the menu for different sizes, what do you know, the menu was right.

The food here is fine...however; this is where customer service comes to die. Good luck getting anyone to acknowledge your existence when you're standing at the register. When you finally get someone, they speak to you like you're a child and don't even bother to look at you. Even the manager Christina R. was more concerned with her cell phone than trying to help with an order.

Great place - comfortable friendly staff - especially Tiffany - she goes above and beyond good service - great with all the customers always makes everyone smile and feel special. Always come back here because of her great personality and attention. What a gem.

Do not eat here!! The employees are not hygienic, this place has had multiple health code violations and a closure from roaches. Just recently my son was eating a bagel with a foreign object baked right in it!! We finally figured out it was a nose cushion that came off someone’s glasses when preparing the dough. Corporate wanted to give me $100 gift card! No thanks. We are not EVER eating here again, corporates response was “What are you looking for then?” So assume that I’m looking for a handout because I made them aware of the situation. They did not care.. How about you pay for my car to be detailed since my son vomited all the way home. NASTY establishment

Took my aunt in for supper after having spent 4 hrs in the ER. Nobody would wait on us and when we were waited on the soup was cold. I had another customer ask me how to use the kiosk as there wasn’t anyone around.. they were around. All 4 of them in the back of restaurant on their phones. I had to go around the corner and ask if anyone actually was working there and so sorry that I interrupted them!! Wong be going back anytime soon!! We thought the restaurant was closed when we first went in as the shelves were empty of any bread/ bagels and found out they close at 10( we were there at 6) Not impressed!!

I went there for dinner, last Sunday evening and ordered pick 2 with salad and Mac and Cheese, Mac and Cheese was all cold, on complaining that it was cold , I was asked to use microwave to warm it up and if I don’t want I can throw it away and that too in a very loud, rude and ill mannered way by a lady( I am not sure if she was the cook, should have asked for her name). On complaining to Manager about her behavior, he offered a replacement cup of Mac and Cheese and this time it was super hot, these guys are in food industry, but have no idea on how good should be served and on top of all have the worst of customer service.

I spend a ton of time at this Panera, doing business online, drinking coffee, and meeting clients. They have a drive thru, which is so convenient when I have the kiddos with me. It can sometimes take a long time to get through the line, but if I'm not in a rush, it's worth it. I love the Sip Club, although there isn't a single item on the menu that I can eat (gluten allergy).
