The Panera at Universal Drive is the opposite of what I'm used to from other Panera restaurants with fire places and cozy, quiet smaller eating areas. In North Haven I feel like I'm at a bus stop--there is no carpet or wooden partitions or wall paper, creating a loud, echoing and stressful place, not conducive to a quiet meal with a friend. The moment you walk in you are in one giant room with extra bright lights, loud, distracting, cold and impersonal. Like I said,...
This is a very nice location, the new style of interior design makes the atmosphere bright and the seating area was very clean. No issues with my order whereas I’ve had missing items every time at other locations. Plenty of outdoor seating as well.
By far the cleanest Panera I've ever dined at, staff was attentive and dry polite including the manager, food was just okay but, the atmosphere made the experience all the better. A bit pricey, but again the restaurant was clean, modern and efficient!
