Panera Bread provides friendly service from the moment customers walk in until they leave. The location is clean, and employees offer great service with a smile. The menu has some mixed opinions; the broccoli cheese soup is enjoyed by many, but some sandwiches may be disappointing, with too much lettuce overpowering other flavors. Customers have also noted that baked goods like croissants and pain au chocolat can be priced higher than at other locations. Despite this, the toasted bread and breakfast options such as bread with eggs or ham look promising. Customers appreciate the good food and the welcoming atmosphere, though some have experienced issues with bread being too hard or delays when ordering via the app. The staff, including Ryah, have been praised for their professionalism and kindness, making the dining experience worthwhile.
