    Friendly staff and consistent food and drink, however, every time I order just a beverage, my ticket is constantly bumped to save ticket times and I'm waiting there for an extra 5 minutes while my order says that it's ready I never have this problem at any other Panera and I've been to at least seven or eight.

    Let’s Make Justice. Had a bad experience with DoorDash delivery today — my food never made it to my address. But here’s the silver lining: Also Sanchez from Panera (Plainsboro Village Center) stepped up and reissued my order with grace and kindness. It tasted better than ever! Bad days happen — but never take them out on those who work hard to serve. 💪 #Gratitude #KindnessMatters #CustomerService #Respect #Leadership #PaneraLove

    The food itself is ok, usual Panera chain. I have to mention this particular location, constantly see people waiting, I usually place the order in advance and then pick up so no needed to spend much time waiting. Although I did have to waited today for someone to help me get a tray for the drinks but there was only one lady and she do not even have time to check on the front desk 😓

    They have the most delicious food anywhere. Don't forget the sip club membership ( unlimited drinks ) with a low monthly fee.
