Customer Reviews
This Panera bread has some of the nicest employees I have ever met! The girl at the cashier is so sweet and always so happy. She makes you feel good when going to place your order because of how much she smiles! Food is always on point, I always get the you pick too for $15 half broccoli cheddar soup & half turkey cheddar sandwich with a side of bread of course to dip in my soup! Always fresh and very healthy for a “fast food” place in my opinion. 10/10 would recommend and the atmosphere is always great also.
Difficult to find an employee willing to assist when the place is busy (I visited on a weekday late afternoon), place was a bit dirty and unorganized, order rapid pick up and the food remains hidden behind the counter so that you have to wait in line for an employee to hand it to you. Visiting the following morning, the place was clean and organized so I’ve edited my review slightly.
Ice never had a bad time or a bad meal from Panera . And ice spent hours inside there
I just now went yo this location and ordered a Chicken asiago sandwich with cream of chicken soup. The girl at the counter took the order as if she is doing charity. I had the soup at the restaurant and brought the sandwich back to my place only to notice that the girl had put in my order for a *steak* sandwich - which I don't eat. I called the restaurant and I told the lady who picked up, about their mistake. She told me to call back in 5 mins. Since then I've called 3 times and they are not picking up. Worst service.
I visited the location in Fall 2024, ordering the Cobb Salad and a macaroon. I used the self service station given the front counter staff appeared engaged in a conversation. My order was turned around quickly and was made to standard. The store is dated and tired, with most people in the dining area doing school work or making video calls. I would not go out of my way to return but wouldn’t exclude it from future visits.
