Panera Bread - Ajax, Ontario

Friendly staff and good interior. Amazed with the quality of food especially bread!!

The food was tasty. But there is no value for money spent. My tiny salad was 1/3 of a small bowl. Grilled cheese was not as tasty. $35 for two people, no drinks and one croissant to share. Poor value for money

Cozy little place in the east. Not as busy as the locations in Toronto and there is always plenty of space for seating. My go-to everytime is the pick 2 option. For my soup, I always get tomato soup as it has always been a great soup and I try ... something different for the other option. The sandwiches are always good and very flavourful. This time I got the new BBQ Mac and cheese which wasn’t too bad; it’s on the heavier side so you may not be able to finish it and the BBQ sauce is a lot. If you are particular with the amount of sauce, you can try asking for it on the side. We also got the autumn squash soup and chipotle chicken avocado melt. The chicken in the sandwich is sliced and the veggies are all fresh and they put a good amount of avocado. The autumn squash was delicious! It is a seasonal soup so it isn’t available year long like the tomato soup. I also ordered a chai tea latte which was very good! WiFi is also available so a good place to get some quiet time! Will be going back. Read more

Extremely high prices for the food quality and portion size. Stopped by today to grab the "Pick 2" option and had the chicken ceasar salad and french onion soup with a side of apple. The french onion soup was decent, but tasted like something I could get from a grocery ... store and microwave. The caesar lettuce didn't seem that fresh and the chicken was reminiscent of refrigerated chicken salad. I guess you can't expect too much from a fast food chain like this. My husband got a bacon turkey sandwich with an apple for a side, and it ended up being just as or even more expensive than my order! Again, it tasted like any bacon turkey sandwich you could probably compile yourself at home. The cashier and server were both very pleasant mannered though. Their rewards card also seems to offer some nice perks! I am excited to get some free dessert and drinks from it. Read more

Great staff. Good food! Drive thru is bit slow but worth the wait!!
