Panera Bread - Tampa

Simply leave this place and place a $10 order for food on the drive thru. Go to the window, give them my card, they said it didn't go through. You had my card for what seemed like a long time. If there was a problem for the first time, I should be aware. Needless to say, I went without food and I was charged! I signed my bank and hopefully I will get the money back. This will be the last time I go there.

Great experience at Panera as always. Ordered in store this time, clean restaurant inside and out, great coffee and breakfast wrap. Lots of outdoor seating as well, enjoyed the sunrise while relaxing on one of the tables. Near Lowry Park and the Zoo, good time while waiting for parks to open.

Had the usual regular lunch experience at Panera. We tend to exchange half of our sandwiches so we can both experience and comment about the food. The tuna sandwich was decent, the side of Mac n cheese nothing to brag about. I was, though, let down by my chipotle chicken avocado sandwich. It was obvious that somewhat half of the bottom of my sandwich was missing, probably stayed behind at the sandwich press. What a messy inconvenience at a place that serves sandwiches ? when you pick your sandwich up to get a bite of it and you?re basically grabbing the contents from falling apart? not being this the first time it?s happened at a Panera (yes the first time at THIS one in particular, but a recurrence throughout the brand I have to point out by now, having that happened many times before I started writing reviews). Also, I still believe their sandwiches are somewhat overpriced by at least $1 or $1.50, considering they bake their own bread daily on site? Must be to pay for the trucks bringing over the dough made at their Fresh Dough Facilities I guess ????? As usual with the concept, and others with somewhat the same style of service, there are times when wiped clean tables are scarce, and the carpeted floorings keep showing the signs of crumbs wiped off the table with clearly the floor as destination ? Aside from that, overall the place looked clean, with all service employees wearing protective masks throughout #ThankYou ??? ??

Enjoyed my lunch here. Pretty steady business and the staff seemed nice. As I arrived, the staff was cleaning the drink machine and replacing ice. That, to me is a good sign. I ordered a tuna salad sandwich and a cup of potato soup. I love how they add bread to it as well. Happy with my lunch stop today.

I was home sick so I ordered Uber Panera bread through Uber Eats. I ordered chicken noodle soup bowl and the passion green tea. It arrived on time and the soup was still nice and hot.
