    Does everyone remember the good old days, maybe 7 or so years ago, when Panera was actually good quality? It has always been a bit pricey compared to other fast-food chain restaurants, but the trade off was a nice, quality salad, a good pastry, and some good bread. Now though? It's all frozen junk they heat in a microwave. Frozen doe, frozen pastries they don't bake fresh in the morning anymore, poor quality lettuce, poor quality chicken and lunch meat, and on and on. Even the smoothies are just frozen junk with syrup now. Every once and a while I will get tricked try it again and it only gets worse each time. Corporate sell outs who continue to cut corners in quality while raising prices. Those two should never inversely correlate.

    I go there and place a large to go order at least once every five weeks. There is a 40-ish year-old guy with a gray goatee that is very rude to customers. My order is always late, and this morning I was supposed to get two chipotle breakfast sandwiches and I ended up getting two bacon egg and cheese for a customer and I didn’t notice it until I got to my customer. Normally the order isn’t screwed up, but this guy is very rude to people and is always behind..

    I usually order their chicken noodle soup in their bread bowl. From my past three visits it's always been the same. Practically no chicken at all in the soup and maybe three slices of carrots with tons of broth and some curly noodles. If you're going to sell chicken noodle soup, could you actually put some chicken meat in it? I was at one Panera bread in Phoenix, Arizona and they had the most wonderful pieces of chicken meat in the soup. Why should I spend $8 on something when I can go get a can of progresso and get more meat in it?.
