    Thank you thank you thank you for actually filling the (1/2) Fuji Apple salad bowl all the way to the top and A generous amount of the cranberry chicken salad on my half sandwich. We had been regular customers of Panera, but had been so disappointed in the amount of food we were getting for the price. This location is definitely doing it right.

    The food was good overall. The only issue is that Panera Bread employees ALWAYS forget the side of sauce. The employee asked me multiple times if I wanted sauce on the side or sandwich and still did not include it. This happens at every location. I like the food but so tired of these soggy sandwiches 😩😩
