The staff are not friendly. This is in Athens. Food not so great. I ordered a Greek Salad for $12 or so dollars. Ordered online. When home I see that the Greek Salad has 6 Roma tomatoes in a clear salad bowl. Nothing else – no joke. I call because I live 20 minutes away. The manager tells me that they make exactly what is on ticket. Granted I made a mistake, but who if sees this doesn’t ask customer about it? Who pays $12. or so for 6 Roma tomatoes? Those employees are not the brightest or just lazy. And it was the manager. Scary… Drive on by Athens Panera Bread or you will regret it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4/5)
Used the drive-thru and the food itself was really good. We ordered a full Bacon Turkey Bravo, a half sandwich, tomato soup, chips, and drinks. Everything tasted fresh and the tomato soup was excellent.
I wasn’t a big fan of the sauce on the Bacon Turkey Bravo, but that’s just personal preference — the rest of the sandwich was solid.
My only real knock is the price. It came out to about $40 for two people, which feels pretty steep for a drive-thru meal with modest portions.
Good quality food and convenient, just wish the value matched the price a little better.

Panera came through today. They gave my girlfriend a giant bowl of homestyle chicken noodle soup, and I had a small cup with my Pick 2. We both thought the soup was excellent—comforting and flavorful. I also had a half Bacon Turkey Bravo. It tasted great, though both my girlfriend and I thought it was a bit small. The cost wasn’t bad either, which made it an overall solid, reliable meal.

I’ve come to this location multiple times. The service is slow and the guy at drive thru window rolls his eyes at you if you ask for any condiments. He acts put out. The soup was cold and my sandwich haphazardly put together. Restaurants are built on food and customer service. All other locations in north Alabama are better and more welcoming than Athens al location.

Another one of my go to spots. The soup and grilled cheese is amazing. My husband loves their chili bowl. The tea is always fresh. Keep up the good work guys.

The manager was very friendly and helpful in pointing out the vegetarian options for me. They are clearly marked but I hadn’t noticed them yet.

Was disappointed by the quality here. My bagel was fresh and worth the calories. However it was not crowded (around 11:30am on a Saturday) and the coffee was not fresh, and was cold, and with it being practically empty, the tables had not been clean or wiped down from the breakfast rush.

By far the worst Panera I have ever been to. Food was cold. There was burnt cheese in the soap that looked like wings all in it and chicken wasn’t done. Only had one option for soup. I would give zero stars if possible. Staff was rude and sat behind the counter talking bad about customers in the lobby. Lobby was dirt and trash all over the tables. Disgusting!!
