My husband & I come to this Panera frequently. The coffee is always delicious (sometimes not hot enough) and we enjoy the seasonal updates to the menu. Julia is a joy to talk to while taking our order. Last night, the restaurant was very busy and she looked like she was doing 3 jobs at once. A younger girl was at the register and abruptly barked for Julia to come to the register NOW! We were on our way to church and that sharp tone from one co-worker to another was quite disheartening, the young family behind us even took notice.
Despite the restaurant being full, we (the customers) were patient and relaxed. It was unfortunate to see that kind of behavior from an employee.

Everytime I go to this location I'm greeted by friendly staff , it's always clean ,they have the items I want . My order is placed it's made in a timely manner. Their manager kelli goes out of her way to make sure we have received everything and tells us goodbye . It maybe something simply but I feel valued at this location . My order is never wrong but I'm sure on the off chance that it ever was , I'm positive it would be addressed with out delay or issue !

Great food but the service was so great. The gentleman taking our order was friendly and helpful. He even made suggestions as I was confused about drinks.
