⭐ 1 star — If I could give zero, I would.
I love Panera’s food, but this location is an absolute disaster. Every. Single. Time. The drive-thru is glacially slow — not because the line is long, but because the staff moves like they’re underwater. Even if you’re the only car in line, expect to sit there at least 10 minutes. Add one or two cars ahead of you, and you’re trapped for 20+. For soup and a sandwich.
Half the time the order is wrong — not customized, not complicated, just wrong. I don’t ask for substitutions, but somehow they still can’t manage to make their own menu items correctly.
And don’t even get me started on the payment process. Sometimes they have a tap reader, sometimes they “don’t,” but every time they insist on taking your phone to do Apple Pay — which is completely unnecessary and wildly inconsistent.
This place needs serious management attention. Panera’s food is great, but this location makes you regret ever craving it.

Waited 40, yes a full 40 minutes in the drive through for a half of a sandwich, another sandwich and one salad. That's it. I asked for my half sandwich without cheese and there is cheese melted all in it, so I cannot eat it because I have a dairy allergy. 40 minutes and they still couldn't get it right. How terrible!

Panera woodhaven is consistently terrible! The staff taking your order has to also get drinks, bagels, bread etc…causing everyone to wait. They won’t open a second register. Coffee’s almost always empty- also creamer. The drive thru- ugh! You wait forever! Sometimes no one even comes to the window.

I never get acknowledged at the drive through when I come here past 5pm. Today I waited 5-10 minutes at the drive through for my take out order… no response whatsoever. When I went inside to pick it up, everyone behind the counter was involved in their own conversations and ignored me as I stood there. The employee, Kaylee, in particular was very rude and unprofessional, as she seemed extremely annoyed that I showed up at all. At least the other employees prioritized my concerns, but I did not like her attitude at all. The food was ok, but my experience here tonight has swayed my decision to come back here at all, sadly.
