    I was recently at this location with my toddler and having a really difficult day. Without even being asked, Karen stepped in and helped me throughout our time there. She helped me carry food, checked in on me, and showed such genuine kindness. She truly made the entire day better for me, and I cannot express how deeply I appreciated it. Beyond that experience, the food here is always consistently wonderful, and the bathrooms and restaurant are always clean and well maintained. But I especially wanted to take a moment to recognize Karen. I truly hope she knows how valued and appreciated she is, because her compassion and care made a real difference for me. Thank you, Karen. You are definitely not one of those "Karen's" 🤣

    Had a mishap with DoorDash taking over 45 minutes to drop off my order when the store is less than 10 minutes away. I called Panera, they not only remade everything but went above and beyond in customer service when I picked it up! My son enjoyed the gifted cookies.
