Their breakfast sandwich and their light roast coffee are 10/10. That’s basically the only things I get here. I bet all their food is good!

I am writing to express my significant disappointment regarding my recent order and the subsequent interaction with the a manager.
My original order was:
Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich
Broccoli Cheddar Soup
Chips (as the side)
Upon receiving my order, I found it was incorrect. Instead of the Broccoli Cheddar soup and chips, I was given Chicken Noodle Soup and a piece of bread.
When I brought this to the attention of the manager, she did replace the incorrect soup with the Broccoli Cheddar. However, the service during this exchange was unacceptable. She dropped the corrected soup roughly three inches onto the tray in front of me and immediately walked away without addressing the second issue (the missing chips) or providing any apology for the incorrect order or the disrespectful manner.
I left the store having received a piece of bread instead of the chips I had paid for, and feeling completely disregarded as a customer. I believe this level of service, particularly from a manager, is poor and does not meet basic customer service standards.
Thank you for your time and attention to this serious matter.

Their food is usually good and consistent, but they missed the mark today. I ordered through UberEats and everything went smoothly with the order delivery and my UberEats delivery person. However, upon my first sip of my broccoli cheddar soup, my front tooth was met with a small piece of glass... I am only noting this in case another similar issue arises later.
I moved on to my chocolate chip cookie and chicken chipotle sandwich inly for the sandwich to be sloppy and the cookie extremely stale.

I’ve given this location multiple chances, but the experience never improves. The service is painfully slow—I’ve waited 20-30 minutes for simple orders, even when the restaurant isn’t busy. It’s hard to understand how a sandwich and soup can take that long.
The staff seem disinterested at best and outright rude at worst. On my last visit, I was met with eye rolls when I politely asked about my order status after waiting well past the estimated time.
Most concerning are the cleanliness issues. I’ve seen flies around the food prep and dining areas on more than one occasion. For a restaurant, that’s unacceptable.
I wanted to like this Panera, especially because the location is convenient. But I can’t justify spending my money somewhere that doesn’t prioritize basic customer service or hygiene. I’d recommend finding a different location or skipping this one entirely.
