    Had a piece of nectarine in my dressing that I accidentally poured in my Caesar salad and then I had nectarine in it. The salad was so bad too. I saw a review about a salad a month ago from someone so obviously whoever is making the salads isn’t doing a good job :(

    Awesome service from Jason and Carrie! Thank you for helping—I had forgotten to submit an order for 35 customers for lunch and was worried that I’d have to cancel at the last minute. Jason jumped right in and helped select items and make recommendations. He and Carrie got it all done in 30 minutes!!! Strong recommendations for that team and much gratitude for their efforts!!

    The portion size is quite small for half sandwich. It’s like kid size for adults. All fast food I feel does this these days. To be full, be prepared to pay.

    This is a great place for a quick bite to eat, ordering to go through the app, or grabbing items foe your company in the morning. They offer catering and will package everything and have it ready to go.

    Probably the slowest Panera I’ve ever been to. Waited over an hour for food. Food is still a decent quality, but I’ve been to far busier locations with less employees and got my food within 15 minutes.
