    Love their bagels and cream cheese! The drive through tends to take a while, but the wait is worth it.

    So I usually go thru the drive thru with my sip club and I will say the ladies in drive are always friendly. Whitney, Adrianna and Shai are always pumped, friendly and courteous. I have interacted with Marcus several times as well. These employees need recognition because they are always on it!!! Don't ever change and I will always be a panera customer!!!!
