    I've been to Panera a lot. Chicagoland, LA, etc. My experiences there are always fine. I especially like their Sensational Shrimp -- soba noodles, fresh veggies and tasty shrimp. It's definitely on the pricier side but worth the occasional splurge. Oh, and I love their breakfast soufflé. Very, very good. So this review of 2 stars is really based on one visit I made recently. I didn't have an appetite for much, but a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup and a grilled cheese sandwich sounded really good. It certainly helped that I had a $10 gift card. And I spent almost all of it on an iced tea, a bowl of soup and half a grilled cheese sandwich. Um, what? $10 for soup and a half sandwich? And here's what the grilled cheese was: two slices of their fancy white bread with some american cheese product melted in between. Sure the sandwich press marks on the bread were nice, but $3.49 for this sad, sad grilled cheese? This is in direct violation of my Cost-to-Value Index -- and my index is usually pretty liberal. I like to spend a little extra on something with quality ingredients or something I can't get just anywhere. I like to splurge, okay? But this...this was just a waste of money. I took a picture and you can see just how sad this lunch was. All for just under $10. The price point for the You Pick Two seems to be grossly inflated, especially when you order the half grilled cheese. I'll still come to Panera for the menu items I really love -- but I will never order the half grilled cheese as part of the You Pick Two ever again. And maybe I won't even bother with the You Pick Two either. Might have to stick to breakfast soufflé and Sensational Shrimp. Why pay $10-$12 for the You Pick Two when I can make a better sandwich at home? Probably the worst grilled cheese I've ever had. Very disappointing.

    The food here is fine. I think panera is pretty standard from one restaurant to another. The problem I have here is the drive thru. They are so inconsistent. Sometimes the service there is great but most often they forget something. Usually it's a side like chips or a baguette. I always like to have croutons with my soup they always forget those. Even after I specify please don't forget the croutons they do. Today I ordered soup I did get my croutons but I did not get a spoon. Once I called to complain to tell them I was unhappy about them always forgetting the sides and the woman on the phone just laughed at me, not good customer service.

    I order the tuna salad sandwich with chips. The lady behind the counter was a little confused on what all was in this sandwich. I ordered it any ways. Wow it was a small sandwich, the onions on it over powered the tuna a bit. They have great unsweetened tea. It's really strange, every time we come here it is filled with senior citizens, so if you are afraid of old people stray from this location.

    I love how diet friendly Panera Bread is. They have calorie counts up on the menu and GREAT food for a great price. The atmosphere is better than a fast food place. It's kid friendly. You don't have to tip. I usually get soup in a bread bowl or the macaroni and cheese, which is really quite good. Great service.

    Everytime I eat here it's amazing. My order is never wring even in their busiest hours. The staff is always friendly and very quick. I've never had anything here I have not enjoyed. I suggest it to everyone I know who isn't looking for another fat food joint.

    I've visited the Panera in CB many times at it's old locations and now many times at it's new location. Not once have I had bad service or the wrong food delivered to me. You are right, the lack of bakeries in CB is sad, but the options you do have are good. We love the new location, it's busy all the time. The service is good there. consistent comes to mind.

    Great food for a chain restaurant. They seem to get you thru the line pretty quickly when it's busy. I can even get my husband to go here once in a while...(he doesn't like 'foofy' food) I've always gotten the correct order. I have not used the drive thru...which seems like it would be handy.

    I hate this place. The food is acceptable, and it is handy to go there to get take out, etc. I think the fact that they are always busy says more about the lack of good bakeries/sandwich shops in the area than the quality of Panera. What really kills me about this place is that the service is horrible. Worst in the city. I would guess that about half the time that I go there (which is somewhat often, as the place is on my home-work route), they get my order wrong. It is to the point where I will drive 10 miles out of my way to go somewhere with help that is competent. Bottom line, if you're looking for sandwiches, go over to Cellar 19; if you're looking for a bakery, keep driving west. If you enjoy not getting everything you ordered, or unwrapping the wrong sandwich, then Panera Bread Council Bluffs is the perfect place for you.
