Love the people here but this location is doing a renovation project and dust and the ceiling is open over your food just close please this is definitely unsanitary and unsafe!!!! The inspector came and said it was ok and it wasn’t!

Their black employees are extremely mean and racist. Also there are no seats to dine in and it is only for takeout.

This location is currently under renovation so seating is non-existent. Also if you decide to order the grab and go option is available but be sure to walk up and ask if your order is ready as the kids here will not ask you if your waiting on an order. They will let you stand there until you walk up and inquire. As a customer I feel it's a bit rude to ask if your order is ready because you see the group moving and doing things endlessly, what you don't see unless your taller than 5'8" is the bags of already made foods behind the counter. If you want good service go elsewhere. If this is the closest one to you at least you know if the webpage says your order is done go claim it asap. No one likes cold soup.

Parking: If you bring in your ticket they will give you a stamp to cover most of the charge.

The manager here is racist and rude! I'm a regular customer and come on all the time. Today I came in for a short while after leaving the gym to wait on my ride. Not even 10 minutes later I was told I had to leave since I didn't buy anything? I was not causing any issues and was there less than 10 minutes sitting on my phone waiting for a ride. It felt very prejudice and I will not support this place ever. The manager is horrible and the place is always disgusting

The store manager doesn’t run her store or people the right way. The dining room is dirty and people just stand around. There needs to be a management change.

I'm not always a fan of ordering at a kiosk, but at least you can see the ingredient list for the food. It's disappointing that Panera Bread does not offer any vegan options, but the Mediterranean sandwich could be made without feta cheese.
Does the tomato soup need to be creamy? Absolutely not. A fire roasted tomato basil soup without dairy would actually be better.
I ordered a combo for $8 which consisted of a bowl of soup (16 oz?), a mini version of the Mediterranean sandwich and an apple for my side; it was just the right amount of food for me.
I also recommend the pommegranet hibiscus iced tea. This was a standout; no added sugar but a little pricey at four plus dollars for the size (a medium, 16-20 oz?). Overall, it was a satisfactory experience.

This Panera Bread location can suck it. I'm from out of town, placed an order online so all I had to do was drop my fiancé off to go in and pick up the order then drive around the block to pick him up after but we didn't have that option. We were forced to pay to park just to pick up a damn carry out order!! On top of that, when we got back to our hotel room, we weren't even given the right soup! I checked the sandwiches and they were fine but I didn't think I needed to check the soup - I've NEVER had to check my soup at a Panera Bread location before. I spent over $40 on this order and it's not even enjoyable 😡

The restaurant is very dirty and you have to clean your own table to seat and eat. You ask people behind the counter and they ignored you.

This place is in a bad shape. Really dirty, no clean tables, food lying on the floor. Very unappetizing atmosphere. Over all very unsanitary place.

The Panera Bread store we visit every week has great food and an excellent location, but the staff, especially the supervisors, often seem to argue and speak down to each other, which can be uncomfortable to witness.
