Panera Bread - West Modesto

The staff was friendly and inviting. The restaurant was clean and easy to acess. We got the pick 2 which was perfect because you can pick 2 different items on the menu. It was cold and rainy, so my bestie got the creamy chicken and rice soup and sandwhich, and I got a hot sandwhich with creamy, cheesy, Mac and cheese topped with crumbled crispy bacon. The fresh baked bread is a perfect touch that is light and airy, slightly crispy and toasted just right. The meals even came with sides of chips, an apple or a banquet. They even had several wonderful dessert options. I went with a giant, thick, chewy, Chocolate Chip cookie! The cashier even provided us with a 50% off coupon. Win win!

The staff are nice, food is good at Panera level but the restroom situation is not good at all, it’s actually disgusting, I was there at 9 in the morning and just see the pictures! Is it too hard to spray a bleach once a week?! It’s a restaurant restroom not a public restroom in the middle of a park!

Come here often and I must say, Emerald the manager is an awesome guy! Always has a great attitude/smile, always keeping the place tidy, service times are great, and workers are always in a good mood when he's on shift! (Suspecting he might very well be Father Bread in disguise.

Try the tomato basil sandwich with my favorite apple salad it was good.

I'm not a big fan of their food. Service is wonderful and Employees are very nice.
