    I’ve been a loyal Panera Sip Club member for years, but after my experience at this location, I won’t be coming back. The staff here is usually very friendly and helpful, but the manager, Ivana, was extremely rude and unprofessional. The issue started when I tried to use my Sip Club to get a coffee. I had another Panera cup with me from earlier that I planned to refill for a coworker. The transaction went through normally, but once Ivana noticed the cup in my hand, she canceled the order and tried to charge me for two drinks. When I politely asked why, she spoke to me as if I was doing something wrong, which was very upsetting. If she had simply explained the policy kindly, I would’ve understood and paid without any issue. This was one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve had at Panera, and it’s disappointing after so many years of loyalty.

    The staff at this location often seem in a bad mood, and online orders aren’t always ready when expected. Asking about an order can be frustrating. I’ve had much better experiences at the Arlington store, where staff are friendly and orders are ready on time.

    I’d like to take a moment to recognize Mohammad at Panera Bread for delivering truly exceptional customer service. During my recent visit, I ordered a smoothie for my nephew, but he didn’t end up liking the flavor. When I mentioned it to Mohammad, he handled the situation with so much understanding and kindness. Instead of brushing it off, he took the initiative to make things right by offering my nephew a cookie of his choice to make up for the smoothie. It may seem like a small gesture, but it made a big difference. My nephew left happy, and I left impressed by Mohammad’s professionalism and genuine care for the customer experience. Even though it seemed like his manager may not have fully approved of his decision, I want to highlight that what Mohammad demonstrated is the true meaning of great customer service — empathy, problem-solving, and going above and beyond to ensure guests leave satisfied. In a world where good service is becoming harder to find, Mohammad really stood out. His positive attitude, patience, and willingness to help turned what could have been a disappointing moment into a pleasant one. Panera Bread is lucky to have such a dedicated and customer-focused employee representing their brand. Thank you, Mohammad, for your kindness and for making our visit a memorable one!
