- MHMumisk HamsterDec 27, 20255.0Food was yummy
- ASAlex SimmonsDec 20, 20251.0Selfish self-centered customer cornered me and my dog waving his cane at my dog with his hat and sunglasses on asking if he could come pet my dog and I told him no. Please please stay away. He kept on coming at me cornering my dog. My dog barked in fear my service dog. He kept on coming at me as I repeatedly told him. No no. Please stay away as I tried to eat my sandwich in peace in the corner sitting peacefully minding my own business. The guy finally went away and then immediately. The manager told me I couldn't sit inside the the store, eating my sandwich and peas really getting me to outside when I was peacefully, mine and my own business and trying to enjoy my sandwich. Awful experience. I told the guy right from the beginning. No please don't come towards my dog and he kept on coming towards and advancing at me waving his stick at my dog with his sunglasses and hat on refusing to back away. Awful experience I have now been booted to outside when I was attempting to mind my own business and try and be able to peacefully. Eat my sandwich inside I have now been relegated to the outside like a second class citizen not allowed to continue attempting to peacefully. Eat my sandwich inside like I had been trying to do. I only had a chance to eat one single bite of my sandwich inside before the obnoxious old guy came advancing at me in a corner waving his his cane at me repeatedly making advances. Despite my asking him not to the manager person has clearly decided to give preferential treatment to the selfish self-centered incredibly rude older person who selfishly just wanted to come and pet my dog despite my asking him not to repeatedly and multiple times
- MMMonicaDec 18, 20253.0Service was great, friendly staff! Pretty disappointed that I paid $10 for a bowl of chicken noodle to-go and container was not filled to the top but 2/3rds only. Mini cookies were delicious. If they skimp on portions like they did in my case today, I won't be back for food just for grab and go cookies
- DMDana MockNov 27, 20255.0Great location, lots of booths & tables. The self-serve order kiosks are very convenient.
- JJJoyfulSep 27, 20254.0Guest Service at this Panera is excellent. Always, warm, welcoming, helpful, caring—Thank you! Vibe is great—lots of comfortable space and spots to sit. Work, Read, Visit, Coffee, Meet, Dine. Great for all. Small, tight shared parking is the only thing.
