    This Panera location is by far the BEST one I go to. The store is always clean, the food is always fresh and delicious and the employees are so friendly and professional. I don’t live here but I enjoy extended visits several times a year and this is always on my must do lust. Thank you for always being so great!

    We showed up there at dinnertime, but they were out of soup and said it would be a while before they had bread. It wasn't busy either. I found it odd that a place known for soup, bread and sandwiches would run out at the beginning of the dinner rush. We left without buying anything

    If you don’t tip them, they intentionally leave off ingredients to spite you. I’m sorry I believe in tipping but not for take away from what’s essentially a fast food place.
