I go to Panera fairly often, at least 10 times this year; let me start off with saying I enjoy going to places more northern in the world, so that goes to say that my experience at Panera this particular location was very pleasurable.
When I entered with my two other coworkers they finished and then as I was speaking to the young lady Jessica at the cash register she was so warm hearted and just very wonderful to talk to you! I think she should be givin a promotion and a reward for her outstanding service; she was able to vary intellectually and intuitively. Repeat my order back to me and she took down my phone number for my free sweets reward when she asked where my 717 area code resides in I kindly responded that it’s from the Pennsylvania Hershey area and she was nice enough to let me know that I have a nice accent which made me feel so full of joy and I almost forgot to go straight to the father in heaven for that wonderful praise that I received through such a kind hearted person! I ordered the chicken pesto and tomato dipper. I also ordered the French onion dipper with steak sandwich and the fireside chili. I included pictures below. The sandwiches are fair in their portion sizes and tasty. I very much so enjoyed the tomato dipping sauce it actually went much better with my mac & cheese with bacon on top. I also got my usual which is a cranberry loaf, which was good as usual although the fire side chilly was a bit more thin than I expected, but I do understand that Panera most likely puts most of their soups through food processors, and the chili stuck to its name by being very, very hot in temperature a.k.a. fireside chili, the atmosphere there was nice and I hope that all the hands that prepared my meal would be blessed!

The food here is very organic and fresh, the breads are really soft and the soups are very tasty and heathier than any other place. I love the rewards too.

Why has this location Neglected and ignored to fix their entry door with it being over 6 months Being damaged and squeaky? What kind of precedent and example does this set? I'm taking my business to the Bedford location until some responsibility and progress happen on this repair. service from the staff is great. Every time I enter, I regret it. This door annoys me every time I visit.

A typical Panera. That's not a bad thing as Panera is typically good. My bacon turkey bravo and chicken noodles soup were quite tasty. Friendly enough and clean tables. What more do you want!

Waited patiently for my food just a sandwich. However people came after and got their food before. Also one of the food handlers was using a pen that she had lodged in her hair. It was disturbing to say the least.
