- ARAnnalise Roy6 days ago1.0Locked Bathrooms which is just embarrassing, you have to ask for the code super inconvenient, every table was dirty with crumbs and greasy, floor was dirty full of crumbs and napkins.
- SAS AstroNov 2, 20252.0Stopped at 7pm on a weekend, no coffee and no creamer/milk. Was told they don't brew much coffee as per company policy. Bathroom's were below standards for a Panera, cream and milk containers were warm. To end it all had a hair in my food. Staff was friendly and good but needs better management.
- VVVladimir VascisinOct 9, 20251.0They were out of baguettes, so I asked for slices of bread for our soup. The manger made a huge deal out of it and made a screaming scene in front of other customers. Ended up buying a whole loaf, to which he commented that I am not supposed to eat that in the restaurant. Unbeliavable... Great place though if you like to be yelled at by staff for something that is 100% their fault.
