    No greeting. Dirty dinning area. Had to grab disinfectant wipes and clean our table that was filthy. Never provided cup for self service prepaid drink. Unpleasant dining experience! Food was average for the price!

    Missing bacon on BLT salad. Missing chicken on chicken salad. Missing items (cookie) ordered and paid for. Missing dressing for salad. Dining tables dirty. Stacked up plates and bowls on trash areas. Staff was friendly but a very unsatisfactory experience.

    Counter service is painfully slow. Food is passable at best. Place in dire need of remodeling.

    Terrible! Filthy place with rude service. Wait for order once placed was very long and when I asked about it I got a rude answer. No clean tables in dining area. Bathroom was dirty. Dirty dishes stacked up and trash cans overflowing. Overall absolutely the most disappointing experience that I ever had at a Panera.
