    Well I guess I should have just checked the reviews before I stopped here for breakfast. We ordered 1 coffee, a breakfast sandwich and a bagel, bread sliced with cream cheese. I specially requested and repeated if they could bread slice the bagel and the cashier who could obviously care less, just said yes. We waited 15 minutes to get our egg sandwich, which was cold, and the iced coffee. They said they were still working on the bagel. Not sure how as they were serving people bagels who had ordered after us. I didn’t ask for it to be toasted just sliced. After another 10 minutes and serving another 6 guests behind us their food they brought us the bagel. Sliced incorrectly and with no cream cheese. I asked for the cream cheese and for the bagel to be sliced correctly. She told me - we can’t do bread slice. Which had I known, I would have ordered something else. She then handed me the cream cheese which was warm - meaning it had been sitting out for who knows how long and is a safety concern. If you’re looking to pay for overpriced food and crappy attitudes - this is the Panera for you. Otherwise I’d recommend saving your money and finding someplace that would pass a health inspection. If they hadn’t already made us late I would have gotten a refund right then.

    Put in my order wrong. Said it was my fault and now I have to wait in line again to pay extra. Gave me my order wrong again after waiting 20 minutes. Rude girls with pink hair look so unhappy and so unapologetic. Still gave me my order wrong!!!!!
