I had the chicken avocado on an Asiago bagel and my hubby had the chicken BLT. We both enjoyed the tastiness of our sandwiches, and mine was stacked up to more than I could eat so he finished it and found it to be quite tasty. This was his first time to Panera, so he was a bit leery at first, but decided he liked our sandwiches with water to drink.

I stopped here tonight to eat some broccoli cheddar soup. At 5pm on a Wed they were out. Not at 8pm when they close at 9pm. Right at supper time. The bathrooms were very dirty. No TP or paper towels. And the dirty dish stand was stacked up. And no they were not busy. Maybe 10 people. We did not stay. My daughter got some cookies and we left. I was very disappointed. This location is usually clean and I have no complaints. BUT... Bad night? Poor management? Whatever the issue get it together! Thanks!

This location is a joke. I put an order in 2 days ahead of time to pick up 4 dozen sliced and toasted bagels for work meetings. They needed picked up at 6 am when the facility opened. Their website said that it would be aound 6:10. That was no problem. I show up to grab my order and was immediately confronted by two employees, both of whom had an attitude. I was told that they haven't even started my order and that there is never a guarantee that an order would be ready at 6 am, that is when they open and there isn't enough time . I was then told that they wouldn't even have the stock for my order. Again, I placed the order 2 days in advance. First, if they were not going to be ready, how about a call to the number on my order for a heads up? Second if its not a possibility to have them that early, why does the website offer that? Third, if you have a few large orders come in for an early morning pick up, a good management team would call their crew in early to execute those orders. Especially if your business is catering to the people. I asked for a redund and will not be back. I really enjoy Panera Bread, but we will not be utilizing this facility ever again. I work for a very large company. You all messed up today. Attn general managers, you might want to reevaluate your staff.
