I haven't been to Panera in a while and after this visit I think I'm going to keep it that way. This location is "self checkout", so there's no cashier to talk to, just tablets. I ordered and found out they only take card. No cash. I had my card on me but that still sucks. My bagel was stale. I don't think it was fresh. They also left out the butter so I had to ask for some. The self-serve coffee was just warm, not very hot. I was disappointed with my entire order. I'm not impressed, they raised their prices but all of the service is practically gone except for the employees in the kitchen. Felt kind of sterile, cold. Not as inviting as I remember it to be.

The food was good, but I have had better. The apple that was my side dish was tiny and had a nickel size blemish on it. The girl who waited on me and the man (I believe may have been one of the managers) were very friendly and helpful, but the young lady who served up the food from the kitchen was unsmiling and surly. That is the main reason I rated service and atmosphere a 4.

The staff at Panera Waltham is very rude and seemingly discouraged the unlimited sip program. We would get attitude everytime we came in for our coffee and most of the time our rapid pickup cup order was not ready. What is the point of rapid pick-up if you still have to wait for the cup? And sometimes they have the cups already out for general use other times not so you never know what to expect when you order ahead. Unprofessional and poor customer service.

Placed the group order online, got confirmation, got to Panera and was told they did not make the food. This was lunch for a crew that was working hard. Will not use Panera for catering ever again. Food : 1/5 | Service : 1/5 | Atmosphere : 1/5 … More

Food was fine but staff was rude to me and my girlfriend. They didn't have soft drink cups out and when I asked for one, they told me they didn't have any BUT ALSO gave me a hard time about taking a coffee cup. I'm not going to cup my hands to hold a drink. My girlfriend asked for salad dressing because it was light and after she told them it was green. They insisted it wasn't and scoffed before giving her the green dressing. This is absolutely bizarre behavior. Never had this at another Panera and genuinely don't understand the attitude of this place.

There soup and bread are always a comfort food. I can buy the soups in most markets for cheaper, but the bread.. is out of this world! My only gripe is the staff. It's usually staffed pretty well, but I feel like maybe they all just started "quiet quitting" I typically wait about 25 minutes to a half hour for 2 cups of soup with a side of ciabatta bread. Even if there is only one person in front of me, sometimes NO ONE in front of me. I've the lack of care when a sandwich is being made that I DIDN'T order, and I'm still waiting 10 minutes LATER. BUT I guess I'm glutton for punishment cuz every week when I go to the laundry mat, I do the same thing. Just don't eat in if you're in a hurry. To Go orders might be faster.. 😂

This place used to be pretty good but over the last few months it's really gone down hill. Very long waits, no available cups, orders being marked "done" but never coming out, mobile orders ignored, people not at the counters for huge stretches of time. Just overall an overly difficult process to actually *get* the food. Couple all of that with the place is usually unclean and I would just recommend anyone in Waltham to go to the other Panera across town.

I only come here for coffee, which I order ahead, and it is literally never ready when it says it is. Do with that what you will. Since they started charging for the unlimited sips club, the cups are no longer available at the rapid order/self serve station, so you have to wait for them for actually fulfill your mobile order. They will send you order updates saying your order is ready, and I have truly never had my order ready upon arriving at this location. Will not be returning, and will likely cancel the unlimited sip subscription as a result.

Came here on a Wednesday afternoon. Should have been very quiet but there was a line out the door. I waited over an hour for a small cup of Mac and cheese, which should’ve taken a minute to scoop. My order name was never on cue screen and I eventually got it after the employee on the register went around back and scooped it herself. I have been coming here since they opened, and I have never had this problem before but this experience definitely changed my opinion. The only reason I am giving 2 stars is because the employees were very nice and helpful.

I placed a web order here for pick up. 1x Avocado, Egg White and Spinach breakfast sandwich, 1x Smokehouse BBQ Chicken Sandwich with a French baguette side, 1x Bear Claw and 1x Cafe Latte. My hubby picked up the order and came back to our hotel and the French baguette was missing! Also, for the Avocado Egg White Sandwich I asked to add some peppadew peppers, but they did not add that. I actually wanted the sporuted grain bagel flat but it was sold out and had to go with the black pepper focaccia.
