    Stopped in just to use my sip club for hot tea and restroom. First, tables have signs on saying to limit your stay to 90 minutes. Panera is often used as a meet up place. I have never seen these signs in other areas. If this was my local Panera I would be extremely annoyed and complain and go to another nearby one. Second, staff were sneezing on food, working while sick without wearing a mask sure didn’t encourage me to buy food. Third, hot water was out for tea instead of filling the pot they insisted on taking my cup and filling. Only milk out was half and half. Asked for almond milk and instead of bringing out the thermos she poured it in a plastic cup which really perks me since I do not like to add extra plastic to a landfill just because staff is LAZY. And last, bathroom had no paper towels so you know they are not routinely checking. End of rant.

    This Panera location often runs out of bread, which seems like something that should never happen. Sadly, the black bean soup without a baguette as a side is not as good. And this isn’t limited to this location, but how does a restaurant that specializes in sandwiches no longer offer mustard?!!?
