Ridiculous that I paid $9.00 for this!
After I had to return because Bonnie gave me the wrong order. Mistakes happen but the sparse amount of Mac and cheese is wrong!
Take orders over the phone when the website is down. I know it is inconvenient, but so is trying to place an order on a website that is not working.

Panera Bread is a clean and friendly cafe known for its good food. It is a favorite spot for many in Ames, especially students who enjoy working there in a cozy atmosphere enhanced by a fireplace. The staff is often praised for their kindness and going above and beyond, with some customers receiving free cookies when they stayed late. The location is particularly appreciated for its cleanliness and welcoming environment, standing out compared to other branches. Customers have expressed that the food is always great, and the staff, especially Stephanie, provides excellent customer service. However, service can sometimes be slow due to high customer volume, and the WiFi in the Ames location needs improvement. Recent renovations have changed the cafe’s once cozy and warm atmosphere to a more sterile, beige appearance. Some customers have noted disappointment with the limited gluten-free options and the lack of condiments with bun-less sandwiches. There have also been concerns about staff sometimes staring at their phones when helping customers, which can lead to mistakes in orders.
