Reviews for Panera Bread in Newport Beach, CA
I ordered a half sandwich, a half salad and a small beverage. They were okay but not worth $25!!
Stopped by here on my way home from Newport. Enjoyed my free sips. Nice clean restaurant friendly staff. Ordered ahead on the... app and it was easy to park and go in and pick up my drinks. Read more
Food was good & people were nice. They need to improve the wifi. I came here to work and wasn't able to connect. This is... probably a huge customer base so it needs to improve if you don't want to lose customers to Starbucks. Read more
Great and clean place for food. Thanks Panera. My lovely restaurant.
I decided to take my Mom out to lunch today. She suggested Panera Bread being that it is close to her house. She and I have... eaten there a few times and it has always been good. Panera was not busy at about 2:00pm on Saturday when we got there. Iordered the Mac & cheese and a cup of French onion soup. My mother ordered a cup of chicken noodle soup and a bagel. My soup wasvery good with lots of onion and bread with cheese. The Mac & cheese is one of my favorites. Panera's is extremely good. My Momand had a wonderful lunch sitting enjoying a warm afternoon. Highly recommend Read more
Most customers appears to be students with laptops maybe that's why the wifi is extremely slow, not sure if it's just today or... everyday is like this since UCI is nearby. Restrooms not maintained/cleaned (men's bathroom, not sure about women's). Coffee nothot, butter in the bucket not iced. Did not cut my sandwich in half as requested. Order ready not delivered (mobile app order)to my table, I had to walk up there and pick it up myself. Definitely do not recommend this Panera location. Read more
Pretty large location. I usually order online to beat the line. Parking can get crowded during busy times. And people drive way... too fast by the entrance and patio. They periodically run low on bananas since the smoothies are quite popular. I try to getthe strawberry banana one, but sometimes I have to settle for just strawberry. Oh, the humanity! Read more
Best Panera Bread location in the chain. High quality food and customer service is outstanding. HUGO the Manager is... extraordinary. HUGO takes great pride in helping customers. We have been coming here for almost 20 years and love it. Thankyou HUGO & Panera on your excellence. Read more
