    So wierd, spent close to 10 minutes just standing there at the counter. It's like the panera bread was abandoned. Other workers milling around didn't even acknowledge us. I felt like they were trying to get my family and I to leave.

    Stopped by for a sandwich and after the girl describing it to me I assumed it was on a roll but it came on red bread. It took over 15 mins to finally get the sandwich which wasn’t to too good. While I was eating I observed a very dirty homeless woman come in and dig through the garbage and take out a dirty used cup from the trash. She went to the ice machine and got ice with it and then went to the other side and poured in a bunch of sugar packets and honey with some coffee. I got up and asked to speak to a manager and 2 women came from the back, I told them what was going on and they looked at me like I was crazy and asked the woman if she needed any help. Never did I see them wipe down the soda machine or spray it with sanitizer. All they did was clean up the empty packets and wipe the coffee/tea area down. The front counter register area was left unattended and I couldn’t find anyone right away.
