Of all the Panera Bread restaurants in the city, I recommend this location. There are comfortable chairs by the fireplace. Compared to other locations, the staff was more attentive and the tables were cleaned more frequently. It was quieter than others locations (some locations have music playing too loudly). This is my new preferred Panera.

Didn’t get my baguette with my $14 French
Onion soup. So I just paid $22 for broth a cookie. I called the store and was hung up on. This is not okay.
