- RGRuby GurrolaDec 27, 20253.0Service is good manger tried to help out soup batch was bad I suppose. Recommend anything but chicken noodle.
- MDMark DDec 23, 20253.0Today was just. . . .blah. We've been coming to this location for quite some time but today makes me question if I'll ever come back. We walked in and immediately saw no one was at the counter so we tried to order on their human-less stations. When finding it impossible to order what I wanted for my daughters, we got in line. A young lady who was very kind appeared to be ending her shift. Said someone would be with us shortly. Roughly 6 minutes later of standing in silence with a baker walking back and forth acknowledging us, but not coming forward, we had a gentleman with a headset come out. While he apologized for the delay he stated he must have been on the phone possibly taking some sort of order? Where are the other employees? We took our order, and after all this, I realized by the pile of dirty dishes all over the trash and recycling area. In addition to how dirty all the tables were, they must be severely understaffed. I understand it's the holidays and things can get hectic and people take off. As a parent, however, trying to manage a 5 and 8-year-old in a line with no one present for 6 minutes... That's a bit rough. With my hourly rate, and how long we waited, my food could have been paid for. I'm rolling the dice on whether or not we will return, and hopefully this isn't a local management issue. Panera corporate, how about you send some employees their way?

- MBMarie B.Sep 25, 20251.0Door was still locked after posted open hours time. An employee saw me at the door and did not come to unlock it.
- LYLyn YangSep 20, 20253.0Understaffed and no management. Good is still delicious.
