This is my favorite Panera Bread location. Whenever I would come here I would try something different. I loved the salads that they have and that is a big compliment coming from me because I have never really been a huge salad person. The menu was always changing as items were coming and going for the different seasons. In the fall I loved getting their Turkey Chili and then in the Summer I always got their Pesto Vegetable soup. I tried a lot of the different sandwiches. My favorite were the ones with Turkey. I wasn't a fan of the Bravo though. That sandwich was just gross, but I'm sure there are people who like it. I love the short bread cookie and the rhubarb mini cakes. Every once in a while the place wasn't very clean. There would be tables that needed to be bused and counters that needed a good wipe down but I always assumed that they had just finished a rush before I came in. There was always at least a clean place to sit. The management at this place is also great! If the store manager is in he will walk around the restaurant and take your plates that are empty and he will talk with you. He makes a point of trying to learn the customer's names and he always has something good to start a conversation about. I have never been to a Panera Bread that had people who do that. I know Panera is a fast food restaurant with a good reputation, but it is nice to know that the staff care. I also love that they are open until 10. When I was in flight school it was hard on weeknights to find places to eat because everything closes so early. Panera does a great job catering to the people who live in the area.

Positives: typical Panera regarding food quality etc... Negatives: very disappointed with is the staff that could not even clean the dining area. The dining area was trashed and the staff couldn't lift a finger to wipe down a table. Dirty tables, filthy floor, soda fountain filthy. wth

Usually I love going to panerabread. This place does the entire franchise a disservice. The employees don't understand service, they toss the food on the counter with no regard to who is picking it up, and they have no clue about their own menu when I ask simple questions. It seems like who ever is managing this mess of people needs to refocus their attention on serving the customer and better representing the company.

We usually go in Tuesday mornings for their baker's dozen bagel deal, but will no longer be visiting this establishment. Without exaggeration, the last four times we've tried to get bagels, they're out of at least one of our choices. Usually completely out of french toast, but this morning they were out of chocolate chip and cinnamon crunch. Only had two french toast and four asiago. We literally couldn't make a entire baker's dozen we'll eat with what they had left. It's not as if we arrived mid-day. We were there at 8am. We have repeatedly asked the manager to rectify the issue and it still hasn't happened. I understand they have a bottom line and can't produce too much excess, but every time? The answer we get from the manager is, "we bake what we can sell." Makes sense except if you could sell more, you're just not making enough for demand. My question was, "are you tracking how many people come in and don't get what they want?" That seemed too complicated for comprehension. My advice, make more of the popular flavors, especially on Tuesday mornings, and start tracking how many people ask for flavors you're out of so you can get an accurate count of how much to produce next time. I doubt the amount of money you'll lose from having a few extra bagels left equals the amount of money you're losing when people leave due to their frustration. We won't be back on Tuesday mornings and I'm sure there are others, so maybe now you are producing the correct amount. I know there are more important things in life, but I used to enjoy our little trips to Panera with the kids for bagels. It was a tradition since before we moved here a few years ago. Unfortunately, our little family tradition has now become so frustrating we just won't continue it until we move again.

Great food, great atmosphere! This is one of my favorite places to go for relatively "healthy" fast food. Love the soups, sandwiches, and salads. I do wish the children's menu had a few more kid-friendly options, but I have a picky eater on my hands. I love to eat here with family/friends or go alone if I am working. One of the best things to happen to Enterprise since I've lived here!

The establishment is fairly new I was a bit overwhelmed with the menu it seemed to have different things from the normal fast food places I go. I ordered a whole sand which and a broccoli soup. If your on a budget this is not the place for you. I spend about 13 dollars with no drink and was fairly satisfied with the meal. Was not to full not to famish. The Panini sandwhich I had was full of flavor but nothing to wow about. The drive thru girl was very kind and friendly. I would be hesitant to eat here again but only because of the prices it would cost me to eat there.

Panera's food is better than the typical garbage fast food, but it's served at a fast food pace. The only thing that varies is the competency of the employees who fill the order. This place is fairly quick to get the food out...but something is ALWAYS forgotten in the order. So it gets a 4 stars for the non-gourmet but still decent food, but 1 star for always always always leaving something out of the order. This location's management needs to figure out a better training program for its employees bagging the orders, since only Taco Bell is consistently as awful about mismanaging orders. It would certainly pay off in getting people through the drive-thru faster, since we now won't leave the drive-thru window without visually verifying every single thing on our order is in the bag and on the receipt.

My husband and I frequent this Panera Bread a lot. Like, almost daily. We were so excited at the prospect of a healthy quick option for lunch in a town dominated by fast food chains or slower full-service options. The food is typical of Panera - fresh, seasonal, tasty stuff. The place is always clean, and the warm dining room and smell of fresh bread is heavenly in cold, gloomy weather. The staff is exceptional. The manager Craig is so friendly, and takes an obvious amount of pride in the quality of his restaurant. He always takes a few minutes to catch up and chat with us when we are in for lunch. We also love seeing Shelby and Cristal, servers who both remember us and are super friendly every time we come in (Shelby has deemed my husband "Mac and Cheese" and always yells a friendly hello to him when we come in). The rest of the staff is infinitely helpful, polite, and always hard at work. As two recently-displaced California kids, it feels great to have a place here in Enterprise that feels like we have known the staff for ages. Nothing beats coming here for good healthy food, a clean comfortable atmosphere, and friendly conversation. Thanks for making us feel at home, Panera!!

I was looking for a healthy restaurant with good-tasting food. I found it at Panera. My husband ordered a turkey sandwich that was served with a delicious tomato-basil bread. I ordered a tuna salad sandwich along with a creamy tomato soup. It was part of a special where you can order a half sandwich along with a soup. Chips are included. So is a generous portion of a crusty bread. You can get a cookie for a discount. I would recommend this restaurant strongly.
