    Imagine that, the drive thru is closed again during business hours. This is ridiculous it’s dinner time.

    I only go here when I get a gift card, and combine with various reward offers. Much too $$ for me. But, I did a pick-up today on NYD, and I will say they loaded both of my sandwiches up and were not stingy. Sandwiches were excellent 👍👍👍 Minus 1 star because again, the cost.

    The African American woman that was preparing dishes was very rude to me, they put my ticket on another persons food and when I told her about it she snapped at me. She then threw my spoon on my dish, this was not a very good person to work in food service. I could not find a manager to complain about her. I will never go to that Panera again, I will tell everyone that I know about this too!!! I have a message for people like that, if your not happy with your job stay home !!!!!!!!!
