Panera Bread is a popular restaurant known for its decent food, though customers have experienced issues with ingredient availability and limited customer service. The restaurant has transitioned to a self-serve model, with customers ordering on tablets and picking up their food cafeteria-style. While the food is generally good, the lack of employee assistance and unclean tables have led to an unpleasant dining experience for some customers. Recent reviews mention that the staff can be curt and expect grouchy clients, which can make the visit less enjoyable. Parking can be problematic depending on the time of day, as the free lot is shared with other businesses in the strip. Despite these issues, the staff are described as friendly and providing rapid service. Some customers have noted that the usual crew is awesome, but busy times can impact the overall experience. The food remains good, but service inconsistencies and cleanliness are areas that could be improved.
