- JHJames HenningsenNov 11, 20251.0They don’t care if you’re military or if it’s Veterans Day they don’t support the troops at this location!
- SKShahin KarimianNov 8, 20251.0Ordered online from Panera Bread and never received my delivery. Called the store, and the manager just told me to contact DoorDash even though I ordered via Panera’s website. Then he hung up on me. Really disappointed with the service. I don’t know what’s the manager is from but he was so rude and then I couldn’t understand his language.
- ADAlexandria DimasNov 6, 20251.0To pay $9.49 for a bowl of soup when placing for a to go order and getting it in a kids size cup should be illegal for what you are paying for.
- 90949 0867Oct 15, 20251.0Man everything is so expensive here. I paid $6 with tax for a chocolate chip cookie that was HARD, like it had been sitting out all day.
- JWJake WalkerOct 2, 20251.0This location in particular is the absolute worst, rude staff and terrible food quality. Stale bread with the soup, soup was room temp. Salad had a shard of glass in it. Truly nightmare experience. To top it all off when I tried to show the glass to staff, they told me rudely to leave. Go to any other Panera location, drive the 15 minutes because this one is terrible.
