- GDGerard DonahueDec 19, 20255.0Went to get a drink as part of my sip club
- MSm sDec 18, 20251.0Ordered a ceasar salad. It was skimpy with too many croutons and the lettuce was wilted. Not happy!
- LGLaurie GerryOct 24, 20251.0Food was lousy. Broccoli cheddar soup was watery w one piece of broccoli. Staff not very friendly. Very pricey for quality of food and atmosphere. Disappointed with experience today. Usually like Panera.
- JMJennifer MitchellOct 23, 20255.0I really love this Panera bread location!! My food is always fresh and delicious. Today I had the opportunity to talk to the general manager, she was friendly and really customer oriented, shout out to Julie GM - you’re awesome! The restaurant is super clean, employees are helpful. Great place to grab the best soup, and hand crafted high quality sandwiches. lately I have fallen in love with the French dipper. Definitely give it a try!!
- RTRobyn ToddOct 23, 20255.0I had placed a catering order on-line and I inadvertently entered the wrong date that we wanted the order for. When they were late delivering, I called to inquire where my order was, that is when I found out I had requested the wrong date! Stupid mistake, but they told me they would bang out the order and it was delivered within 30 minutes. These guys are incredible! In a time when service most places is hit-or-miss, these guys were the MVPs. I can't thank you all enough.
