Panera Bread,

23-58 Bell Boulevard, Queens, NY 11360

"I make sure to stop by once a week and buy bread for the week. I often enjoy it for brunch, and the ingredients are fresh because of its good fluidity. I thought this was a franchise so they were all the same, but I was extremely disappointed in the Duluth branch. But this Bay Terrace branch never disappoints me. suggestion!"

"Baguettes are amazing. That's it. I tried a few dishes and they all were underwhelming. The cheddar broccoli Mac and cheese bread bowl was so expensive for a tiny portion of Mac and cheese. It was cold and super salty. The Mac and cheese with bacon bits had a weird aftertaste. The bacon bits have no flavor and are extremely hard. The Madagascar vanilla coffee is bitter and impossible to enjoy because they only have paper straws. The place is also pretty noisy. The service is almost instant, which indicates how not freshly made the food is. I only gave 2 stars because the baguettes are really good. Edit: upon further consideration I need to give this 1 star because my $5 frozen grocery store Mac and cheese tasted better than the one from here"

"This place used to be good. We ordered the new Teriyaki Chicken and Broccoli bowl to go but the food definitely doesn't match the price. It wasn't even half full! Definitely won't be coming back."

"I ordered to go the half size Strawberry Poppyseed Salad with Chicken. Very refreshing but not much chicken so seemed more like a fruit salad with lettuce than an actual meal. Still it was nice to have on a hot summer day."

"Used to come a lot, but they haven't really lived to up to my expectations recently. The portions have gotten smaller while the prices have gone up. Bread and soup here are still great, but you don't really feel the value for money anymore. Panera used to be one of those places you could come in for a meal and not break the bank; but nowadays it does seem to put quite a dent in your wallet. I only come for their sourdough bread bowl soups and for nostalgia's sake."
