    Every time I've ordered bagels for delivery, they're always rock hard, never soft, ever. Is this what they think people want? Hard bagels? It's even hard to slice through them with a steak knife. Not going to order bagels anymore from Panera, ever.

    My better half, and I frequent Panera. We love the Chicken Bacon Rancher sandwich. We always order that sandwich, and a bowl of soup. Yesterday I ordered the onion soup and got food poisoning from the soup. 😫 won't be eating there any time soon. You lost a frequent customer, Panera. Sorry but what else are you letting slip through the cracks.

    Would really love to keep giving this location a chance but for the last year or so I rarely find what I want made and ready. Years ago cranberry orange muffins were so popular they started having them year round, well not any of the times I've been at this location lately, including 8:00am on a weekend! Now when pumpkin is the big seasonal thing, nothing, not an item to be found at 10am on a weekday. When a place is open all day and these items are on the menu, especially during the season, WHY DO YOU NOT HAVE THEM IN THE STORE!
