    Came for the fall harvest soup. So good. The reason I'm writing this review is the crew member, Kelli (long red hair, glasses) was SO over and above. She saw our hands full of drinks and offered to deliver our food to the table. I also saw her walking around checking on everybody's meal. Felt like I was at a full service restaurant. This lady should be promoted imo. Loved my experience here!

    I stopped in for a cup of coffee yesterday. $3.95 for a refill. I feel that is over priced. I even mentioned I have my own cup and asked if I could be charged for a refill. 3.95 came up. So, I paid. After I get my haircut, I stop back by while I wait on the bus. The lady took the first two customers. Once it's time to take my order. She all in the sudden gets busy and head to the back of the store, so I wait. Then after walking back and forth, not holding one thing, someone asks if I have been helped. I clearly haven't been help, if I am the only standing in front of the register. I respectfully say no ma'am. She takes my order, I explain again I have my own cup, and still gets charged 3.95 for a coffee. This time the coffee was warm, and had coffee grounds in it. That is 7.90 for horrible service and warm coffee. I didn't have time to complain. I just went home. That Lakewood location used to be my favorite panera bread. But the service has deteriorated while the prices have gone up.
