    This Panera Bread location appears to be franchise-owned, and the pricing is significantly higher than nearby corporate-operated locations. Charging customers 15% to 50% more for the exact same menu items—and in some cases receiving smaller portions—is unreasonable and unacceptable. For example, a tub of cream cheese is priced at $7.39 here, while it’s around $3.89 at a corporate location. The Spicy Steak Asiago Bagel is $8.99 here versus about $7.99 elsewhere. There is no clear notice to customers that prices are higher due to franchise ownership. This lack of transparency is frustrating, especially when a corporate location with standard pricing is only 2-3 miles away. At a minimum, there should be clear signage informing customers that prices may differ. Without that, this pricing practice feels misleading and unfair. It is understandable to charge about 10% markup to pay for the franchise fee and advertisement, but not 15-50%.

    I got the 1/2 broccoli and cheese soup with 1/2 grilled cheese sandwich and a drink (free refills) for $20.00 Such a great lunch. Come and enjoy the food. You can't go wrong (imo).

    I love this place, but the bathrooms need a serious remodel. They always smell, they're dirty, and overall in pretty deplorable shape. Corporate needs to go in and do some improvements to that location.

    I had a very disappointing experience at this location. The cashier at the front counter was extremely arrogant and seemed completely disinterested in assisting me properly. They didn’t even ask whether my order was for dine-in or take-out, and I ended up waiting for a long time without any clear instructions. In the end, I realized that no one had informed me that my food had been placed in a to-go bag, and they didn’t even bother to ask for my name. The whole experience felt disorganized and unprofessional, and it was honestly very frustrating.
