    Hubby and I both had soup. Flavor was really good, but it was lukewarm. Purchased a scone to eat later and it was delicious.

    I arrived a few minutes before the store opened, and as i waited, i noticed a small piece of paper just inside the door. I thought, hmmm, I wonder if whoever opens the door, will they bend over to pick it up, and dispose of properly. Sure enough, as they approached, key in hand to unlock the door, they paused for the brief moment it took, grabbed it, and placed it in the receptacle there by the door. Bravo Panera Bread, and Bravo to Estelle Rivera, Mgr. for having such a crew to "do the right thing."

    Good food but the service is what makes me give 5 stars. Analise is always so patient, kind, and considerate when I’m trying to order. She always helps me with any questions I have. Keep her around! She’s excellent and made service top notch
