    After placing my order & paying for it the girl didn't tell me that I was to pick up the food all the way down at the end of the bldg where a sign was posted that said, "online orders", so I sat at a table & waited, & waited, & no one called my name( the girl that took my order asked for my name) so I walked down to where it said online orders & asked, " where do I pick up my order?" It was there & they were kind of rude when I asked for butter.

    Unfortunately, the service staff made a big deal over changing a heel to a regular piece of bread.The prices are exorbitant so a small gesture like this leads to a review like this listens to be straightened up.

    I would highly recommend NOT coming to this panera because there is ALWAYS an excessive wait time to pick up online orders or to even order in person, due to the workers always talking off topic when they are flooded with orders but they're singing like they are the seven dwarfs in snow white.
