    It was good, first time trying Panera Bread and I felt it was sufficient. Would come back again.

    I can only assume this location sees the worst of all segments of society because it’s bad enough when you have to pee and want to take your time placing your order but see the less than happy workers, try the bathroom door just to hope the keypad lock isn’t actually in service; but it is. Now the bladder is beyond unhappy and relieving oneself in the parking lot is a very real temptation. Place an order, bladder screaming. While displaying my order confirmation screen to the worker, asking to please use the restroom: they ask for MY LAST NAME to CONFIRM before sharing the code. JUST WOW. food was fine. Take care Y’all.

    Worst service I’ve EVER EVER HAD in a Panera. The entire staff should be fired. It stinks in there and my wife and waiting 20 minute while staff walked pass with out so much as an acknowledgment. Several customers waited. I had to go and grab someone who had an attitude. Never eat here.

    I received a gift card to Panera bread. The first day I went in and I got this kind of steak cheese dip sandwich. It was delicious, and I thought all their sandwiches would be similar to that. But they are not! I went back just two days later and got another sandwich which was a steak cheesy melt (no dip), and I bought the small half size, and this time I actually gave a tip, even though it was a pickup it. It was an extreme disappointment. It was the wimpiest amount of meat and cheese inside. The bun outsize it by 15 times or more what was inside. I'd like my money and the TIP back! I guess it doesn't pay to tip. That half sandwich, again a half of a sandwich, cost me over $9. It was 8.99 plus tax. And it was that bad! And your chocolate croissant? You charged almost five bucks for that, and you can get a better one for $1.39 at Safeway. You should be ashamed of your products.
