    During my visit, I saw multiple roaches crawling around different areas of the restaurant. This is absolutely unacceptable for any food establishment. I even emailed Panera directly with photos a month ago, but no one ever bothered to reply. That lack of response says a lot about how seriously they take customer concerns and health standards. I won’t be coming back, and I strongly suggest others think twice before eating here until the infestation is addressed.
