    Manager is rude and unprofessional! Hung up twice on my fiancé after they made a mistake with our order! Did nothing to fix issue just put blame on everyone else! This type of behavior should not be tolerated ! Fix it fast !

    This Panera needs some updating. There's no kiosk ordering available, and the pickup counter is behind their counter so you have to wait to be acknowledged to get your order which usually takes awhile.

    We usually enjoy going to this Panera, even though it takes us about 20 minutes to drive there. Today was our third visit, and in the past, we have always enjoyed the food — it’s delicious and usually worth the trip. Unfortunately, this time our experience was disappointing because of the service. We ordered two Spicy Chicken sandwiches, a bottle of water, and hot tea. After placing our order, we waited near the bakery area. While waiting, we realized we still needed the hot tea and water, so we approached one of the staff members for help. At first, he seemed respectful, but when we asked for the tea, his attitude quickly changed. He laughed as if we were bothering him, which made us uncomfortable. When we repeated our request, instead of helping us in a professional way, he responded with sarcasm, asking what size cup we wanted in a tone that felt like he was trying to be “smart” about it. We were surprised and disappointed because we expected kindness and respect, especially after making the effort to come to this location. We want to be clear that we love Panera’s food, and we came today because of our positive past visits. But the way we were treated made us feel ignored and disrespected. We hope management will take this seriously, because great food should always be matched with good customer service.
