We stopped in at 7:45 AM to get quick fountain drinks and two parfaits. There were two women at the front; nobody said a word to us. Nobody greeted us. Nobody said hello. We put our order in at the kiosk. We went down to the counter to pick up our two parfaits, which most Panera’s usually have them premade. Nobody was at the pick up counter. Nobody was working on our order. Not a soul in sight, yet we heard the voices of the employees. Finally, my husband asked if anybody was working on our order. We track down three employees who were handling bread. One woman was giving instructions. Another woman was doing the work. And the third woman was watching. Nobody wanted to fill our order. Which again was too simple parfaits, and two large cups. When they finally gave us two large cups, we went to the fountain drinks, and the drinks weren’t available. There was no tea made. And my husband could not get a soda. The soda was empty! When we asked if we could get help, they told us they were working on something and we needed to wait. So we ended up just getting a refund. Completely incompetent people. They open at 6 AM. Why are their drinks not out?

My mobile orders often alert me they are ready and the store ends up having it ready 10 minutes after. Additionally, they will randomly swap my French baguette pieces with their sourdough baguette which looks very similar but if you're sensitive to texture or flavor is much crunching and yeasty/tangy. This isn't really a big deal but it sucks that it's happened to me multiple times. If they are out of it it would be officially substituted but it's labeled as the sourdough. I buy both all the time as full loaves so I can tell the difference. The sourdough ones are not for me obviously it isn't what I was expecting to get and it really is less than mid compared to the french
