    I ordered my food and waited in the drive through for 10 minutes. Not one car moved. But the guy taking out the trash rammed my brand new car with the trash bin and laughed. I did not appreciate that and ended up leaving the drive through.

    I’ve been going to this Panera for the past 15 years, and I’ve never been treated as kindly and warmly as I was today! Caitlyn, the young woman who took my order, was absolutely amazing she truly deserves a raise! You can tell she loves her job and takes pride in making customers feel welcome. Her positive attitude completely made my day. I really hope this review helps her get the recognition she deserves. The food is always great, but today, the service made it amazing!
