    They need to fire that female that seems to be manager/shift leader, terrible experience! She was rude to us. First I ordered a drink then a sandwich and a pastry. When they pulled out the order it was missing the drink so I asked for it she said they didn’t get it or have it after handing me the order with the sandwich and pastry with my name on it. Then asked for my phone number after I told her I ordered it and showed her the app to verify? After that she was like oh yea we have it right here so she didn’t bother to check when I asked her already about it. Then we proceeded to eat on the benches so then she kept staring us down and asked us to only move to one bench only even though there were no one else at Panera at that time, it was just me and my husband. On top of that I ordered a Diet Coke and it was not available even though app wasn’t updated but I didn’t say anything. Honestly needs a different management cuz I won’t be coming back here. All the way we spent eating our food she was staring us down. Then at end of my last bite she came outside and said location isn’t dine in and kicked us out

    I'm not sure why there are so many bad reviews. My order is always correct and ready when I get there. I loved that they opened a location in River North.

    Service was quick and the staff were very helpful. Felt like I needed to counteract some of the negativity

    I love Panera bread very much, but particularly this location workers are , most of them are mean and make the atmosphere so unwelcoming! I fell so bad for the owner he could really get better reviews and businesses but with this team it is not realistic!
