    Big area but full with a class/team group. 4 stars for service because you pick up your own food and take your plate to the trash area yourself. The 1/2 Harvest salad & 1/2 Autumn soup was PLENTY, actually they were generous portions!

    Absolutely nasty. There was flies sitting on the food and they were selling that nasty food to the clients. The cashier was not pro active and everything I ordered she just said in a very rude tone that they didn't have or was only for breakfast. Then I decided to go somewhere else. I really don't recommend this place.

    The food is the typical tasty, Panera Bread, but the problem is the customer service. I’ve been in this restaurant four times and in three of those four times it has taken more than five minutes of standing up front before somebody finally came to take my order. My most recent visit I just walked out because I didn’t even have time to wait to order the bagels. I wanted. And to be specific, we aren’t talking about standing in line for five minutes during peak, busy times, all four of these times I have come in either the middle of the morning or the middle of the afternoon and had either one person or nobody in front of me.
