I Have gone to Panera’s before and enjoyed the food. But today when I went to the service window and ordered a latte, I was given instead, a lukewarm watered down Cup of coffee. I called and complained to the Manager, but he just didn’t seem very interested, And really wasn’t listening to me.
So my advice to you is don’t leave the service window until you make sure that your order is up to snuff. once you leave, it’s very hard to do anything about it

Was weird placing your order on the machine as you walk in, then you find a table and wait for them to call your number.
The only issue was trying to find a clean table.
