    Panera bread is without a doubt one of the best bakery and fast service restaurants in America, and this location is a great representation of this. Great service and solid food.

    Panera "BREAD." Location out of every possible bread, on a Monday during dinner hours. End of December and it feels like it inside these doors. Smells like a wet moldy rag at the touch screens. If I didn't see people moving around in the back I would have never known there was any... Nahhhhhhh....

    Although they did not have the Veterans Day special (free bagel and coffee), the asst manager Beth went above and beyond to provide excellent service and offered the free bagel and coffee to a veteran… will definitely return here on another occasion…

    Got a Cesar salad last night for dinner. Was disappointed with the salad. A lot of the white part of the lettuce was in it. There was not a lot of green lettuce. I even had the white core part that you take out in my salad. For the price I think we need to do better with these salads. More green lettuce less white.
