    We, Uber Eats and DoorDash drivers, are experiencing racism at this restaurant; they are refusing to hand over ready orders. This needs to be investigated. If this happens a few more times, 10 of my colleagues and I will contact our lawyers and file a complaint!

    On December 9, 2025, I was supposed to pick up my order from Panera Bread, but I told the manager and staff that my order was ready, and I asked why they weren't giving it to me. They responded disrespectfully, saying I would have to wait, and used rude language like "you need to learn to wait." I hope the general manager of this location sees this message and takes appropriate action. These people are driving away customers with their lack of understanding, and I will tell everyone I know about this situation.

    Men's restroom toilet has a strong sewer odor that needs to be fixed. Apparently the county Health dept already came out last week, but nothing has been done. It has only gotten worse.

    My professor always goes here but I have no idea why. It's just your average panera with mediocre soups and breads. to each their own but it gets way too crowded for kids. Still, the worker at the front was very nice so 3/5 stars.
