    I ordered Cream Of Chicken & wild rice soup for my kids to take away. There is was only one option for kids When I got home and opened it, the soup looked terrible like something you would feed to dogs. I didn’t give it to my kids. I tried a few spoonfuls myself because I was very hungry, and later that night I had diarrhea. Also, they didn’t have any coffee at 8:40 p.m., even though they close at 9:00. It’s really disappointing that this place is considered one of the top restaurants, but the food and service were awful!

    Mostly I go for coffee and atmosphere. Being a strict veg/vegan I don't find much to eat. Whatever I eat now or discontinued food I liked it.

    I had a really disappointing experience at Panera Bread. When I got my order, I found an actual piece of paper stuck to my bread. That is completely unacceptable for a place that’s supposed to focus on quality and fresh food. It makes me question the cleanliness and attention to detail in the kitchen. I expected much better from Panera and will think twice before coming back.
