    Met with friends for lunch. The facility was quiet even tho there were other dinners in there. Food was ready quickly. They did mistakenly give me a wedge of bread instead of the chips but they quickly rectified that. The Mac & Cheese was so good, creamy. And paring that with a sandwich was the perfect size for lunch.

    Ordered this as we were driving back home to Colorado, placed an order for a soup, salad, and two sandwiches- and it was ready in less than 15 minutes! Walked in, super easy to grab my food, and head out on our way back home. Definitely would come here again, the lobby was clean, friendly staff, and clean bathrooms.

    For a picnic with my oldest son, I ordered online for drive-thru pickup. Right after getting our lunch, I caught a whiff of something as I began to drive off... it smelled like...FOOD! I thought, "Wow. That's not the typical aroma that wafts out of most drive-thru windows: that of deep fat fryers." I've eaten at Panera Bread before, but hadn't yet had the kind of experience that so clearly and memorably delineates Panera from virtually every other eatery with a drive-thru. I'll definitely be back!
