    The service is very good. Very clean restaurant. Just dissapointed again. You get a bowl of soup for $10.00 and it's half a bowl. The only other problem is when you get a meat and cheese sandwich it's all bread and cheese. If you are going to charge premium prices then give premium quality. Business 101.

    Tried Panera Bread for the first time today after researching their top-rated items, and I’m honestly disappointed. I ordered the half Chipotle Chicken sandwich with a bowl of chicken noodle soup, and the total came out to nearly $18. For that price, I expected a decent portion or at least something that looked and tasted more substantial. Instead, the servings were extremely small, barely filling, and definitely not worth what I paid. I would’ve needed to order the same meal twice just to feel full. Overall, not impressed and wouldn’t recommend this place if you’re actually hungry. Won’t be coming back.
