“I had a really positive experience with this Panera Bread location. I called thinking there had been a mistake with my order, but it turned out I had misunderstood something on my end. I spoke with the general manager, Emily, and she handled it incredibly well.

She kindly walked me through what happened and explained everything clearly, but more importantly, she did it in a way that didn’t make me feel embarrassed or foolish at all. That kind of professionalism and care is rare.

Really appreciated the way this was handled. Great customer service goes a long way, and Emily absolutely delivered.“
