So dissapointed by this Panera's french baguette, it was more like a foccaccia flat bread than a baguette. I honestly had to question prep staff, why the foccaccia when l ordered baguette. They said it was baguette. Ive been to Paris Fr and that foccaccia bread and the staff members comment were insulting to my intelligence. I think a restaurant whose name literally means Bread should do better. I wont be back. So, so dissapointing

Incredibly kind and friendly staff, not to mention delicious food! There was a small error with our order and the manager went above and beyond to make it right. The service here is exceptional. We will be back, that's for sure!
