Absolutely disgusting. First my order took 10 minutes beyond the scheduled time, fine. But then I got back to my office to eat my sandwich…… there was a LIVE GREEN STINK BUG IN MY SANDWICH. I am so disgusted I will never eat at Panera ever again. Yes, I understand that “greens” can sometimes contain bugs but HOW did the person making the sandwich not see that?! This is a quality control issue. Not just the suppliers issue.

They changed the way they made the tuna sandwich. I like the old way better, so I always have to customize my sandwich the old way.

I had a good experience overall at this Panera. Service was prompt and efficient, and the dining area was being kept in great shape—everything looked well-maintained.
I did take one star off because the atmosphere felt a bit impersonal. There was no greeting when I walked in, which set a colder tone. Also, the bathroom needed attention; there were paper towels on the floor and it didn’t feel as clean as the rest of the restaurant.
Still, solid service and a well-kept space. I’d return.
