    Bagels was good, had to remind server of cream cheese and cookie that was on the order. Worst of all dark roast coffee was empty and was not replenished. I waited 35 minutes for for coffee, never happened

    This morning all I needed was a coffee before work, instead of the 7Brew down the street I placed an online order at panera because my husband has a drink rewards and I can’t get a bagel from 7Brew. Upon entering I asked the masked cashier about my pick-up and she just pointed as if I were a child. The size of this woman begs to differ who’s the adult in this situation but I digress. Of course, I looked in the direction she was pointing to see my clearly mishandled, sliced cinnamon-raisin bagel. I will not be coming back here to start my day ever again

    Tasted good. My bagel was sliced with very thick bottom and a really thin top. I did not have cream cheese with mine, just frozen butter that had to be warmed up to be able to spread. The restrooms had combination locks on the doors. You'll need to ask for the code to enter. I was there mid morning, 10ish, and most bagels were out.
