Oh you guys are out of your minds, I hope my husband is able to get his money back. My $11 mac under filled, annoying but okay whatever. My husband’s WHOLE salad?!!?!! Are you joking? The picture doesn’t even show how bad it is. $21 for the chicken salad. There was like genuinely 10 pieces of lettuce.

Mini backstory: We drove all the way from Houston to experience the arrival of our God daughter at the nearby hospital. Baby's mom wanted food ASAP while she could eat so we ordered everyone Panera per her request, while in a rush to get to the hospital, my husband went inside to pick up our order with my name on the order and he had the order confirmation number. The girl/lady at pickup didn't let him get our order and repeatedly tried asking several questions he already had answered thinking he was stealing the order based on his looks. He gave the name, order number, and she still refused to give him the food, I had to run inside after her consistently refusing to give him the food because he didn't remember everything off the top of his head from the order... we ordered for 7 peopls.. when I came inside everyone in pickup line just gave name and got their order no questions asked, when she saw me she tried justifying why she didn't and we told her that was rude and uncalled for if she wasn't asking any of the other customers a million questions. The only nice employee at the time was the man at the front by the bread and pastries who greeted us in and out. Worst Panera experience especially during a time of blessings and our first time of many to California.
