- SBSteven BlaisOct 24, 20251.010/24/25 8:00 PM Restaurant was very filthy. Dined in and had to sit at a dirty booth because there were no tables cleaned at all. Employee who was 'cleaning' was walking around the dining lobby on his phone. Although the food was pretty good, seeing other Google reviews along with the atmosphere associated with my visit tonight, I will not be eating here again. 2/10.
- MHM HayesOct 5, 20254.0Drive thru breakfast order was incorrect, I went in with my food and receipt. The manager took care of my order. She and the gentleman at the register were professional and polite. Mistakes happen and I received no pushback from them.
- KKKurtSSep 11, 20251.0Italian with extra ham came with no meat at all. Called for a refund and was told I had to go back and get a receipt. I live 20 minutes away. Thanks! Who orders a meat sandwich with the higher cost and asks "hold the meat"?! WHO??? Jack Nicholson "What, no toast? Then get me a toasted chicken salad and hold the chicken salad" that's who? I can't believe it actually happened, but I ordered extra meat!
- STSerena TheriaultSep 11, 20255.0Didn't wait long for food, and it was delicious 😋. Little bit pricey, worth it for the upgrade on fast food. Plenty of menu items to choose from. Staff were super courteous and polite.
- JSJames SpinneySep 7, 20251.0It's September and it's been literally weeks since Panera in Auburn has had ANY soup in stock, like nothing - no chicken noodle, no french onion, no tomato soup or any of the seasonal soups, I can understand being out of stock for a couple days due to a logistical snafu, but seriously it's multiple weeks with an entire section of the menu just out of stock and heading into THE season soup is most popular. Management is not managing this location effectively, this is beyond disappointing, I guess that private equity buyout is finally showing it's ugly side
