    Ordered delivery from here for my work lunch and I specifically requested utensils. I did not receive any utensils, unsure of how I am supposed to eat a soup without a utensils!!! Not to mention they didn’t give me any napkins.. I thought every place will give you napkins with your food order… not impressed and will not order again.

    I had such a great experience at Panera Bread thanks to Hannah! She had amazing customer service skills—friendly, cheerful, and genuinely happy to help. My order was perfectly accurate, and she made sure everything came out just right. It’s always nice to be greeted with a smile, and Hannah’s positive attitude really stood out. The food was delicious as always, and her great service made the visit even better. Highly recommend stopping in if you want great food and friendly faces like Hannah’s!
