Panera Bread - Pinole

After ordering I was waiting for my food standing near the register and a very nice employee (male, hispanic, 25-30 yrs old, had a bald head) asked me if I was helped yet and told him yes and I can tell he had such a friendly demeanor. I then took a seat with my kids in one of the tables and one of the staff members (male, hispanic, around 50-60 yrs old) greeted me in such a kind and sweet way while he took his break and ate his food. I thought he was just a customer. He made me feel very welcomed. Then I asked the guy with the bald head what are prices of drinks he said $3 then he said they charge but this time it will be on the house. That was very kind of him! Please go here, they are all great, even the cooks, they were all smiling, and seemed like they were all in such a great, positive mood! Customer service here is awesome really! And they all deserve a rais!

I normally go to this Panera bread out of all of them. But today I was just a little disappointed, because they forgot my bread. And seeing it was storming outside. I wanted a soup (with the bread ? to dip in) a salad .

Excellent food, service, staffsVegetarian options: Great

The menu at Panera Bread boasts a wide range of choices, including hearty sandwiches, soups, fresh salads, and pastries. I especially enjoy their broccoli cheddar soup and the turkey avocado BLT sandwich; both are always packed with flavor and very satisfying. The bakery section is also a must-try, offering an enticing assortment of breads, pastries, and cookies that make for a delightful treat. Overall, I highly recommend Panera Bread in Pinole for a delicious and convenient dining experience. Whether you need a quick lunch on the go or a cozy place to unwind with a cup of coffee, this location has everything you need. I will definitely be back to sample more of their delightful offerings.

The bag was taped shut, so I made the mistake of not checking it before leaving. Unfortunately, one sandwich and all the sides were missing. However, the food that we did receive was good.
