  Definitely the worst Panera I've been to. Very understaffed, bad coffee (although not as absolutely undrinkable as it used to be), and the drive-thru is a trap. Don't do it. Even if there's only one car in front of you. You will sit there for 20 minutes waiting for them to make two sandwiches for the car in front of you, while you only ordered a fountain drink or a drip coffee, and they won't ask the car in front of you to pull forward and park so that they can move other people through the line. On top of that, the inside is dirty, the employees are not particularly friendly, and usually when you walk in there's nobody at the front counter. It also usually smells bad inside. Maybe that is from homeless people hanging out in there regularly. Sometimes there's a security guard hanging out near the front door. Overall, not a pleasant place to hang out.

  My sandwich was okay for being incomplete. I ordered the Bacon Turkey Bravo, and it was missing the bacon + cheese. So, overall, I'd have to say that the experience didn't go well. I'd rather not pay full price for an item with missing ingredients. I should've read the reviews before visiting, but oh that's what I get.

  20 minutes in an empty drive thru, I waited at the menu board for 5 minutes just to let the know I’m here for my mobile order. Got to the window no one came up for 10 minutes, finally guy comes over and asks if i ordered at the menu screen, note same dude that was on the intercom. Finally got my food and food wasn’t really good at all.

  My friend ordered a Mediterranean Chicken Grains salad. She requested no wheat/gluten free. After a couple bites, she could tell something wasn’t right. She took it back and asked if they were sure it was gluten free. They said they “thought so.” She asked them to check. It was not. They remade it. She received a token apology. By then she was getting a headache, half her face was numb, and she had pain in her stomach. She told the team manager it was no small mistake. It could be very serious. I asked him to give her a refund or at least a gift certificate. He quickly said he could not. It was against their policy. I had the broccoli soup, which was fine, and the atmosphere was nice, but we will not go back. I’m sorry we gave a tip when we ordered.
