Panera Bread is a restaurant known for its friendly staff, cleanliness, and quick service. The staff are reported to be helpful and attentive, with a special mention of a manager named Rich who is described as a hard worker. The restaurant's oatmeal and food in general have received positive feedback. However, there have been some complaints about the discontinuation of decaf coffee and the watery consistency of the chicken and wild rice soup since the move to the new location. The new location is described as nice and clean, though it lacks the cozy atmosphere of some other Panera locations. The new drive-through system has also faced criticism for being confusing. Despite these issues, the new pickup shelf and building have been praised. The food remains delicious, with items like the Italian sub and broccoli cheddar soup standing out. Staff members, such as a cashier named McKayla, have been recognized for their polite and patient service, even with challenging customers. Overall, the restaurant continues to focus on fast service and tasty food.
