Was weird placing your order on the machine as you walk in, then you find a table and wait for them to call your number.
The only issue was trying to find a clean table.

I've never been to this panera before. I'm sorry, but it just was not good at all to me.
I ordered one line the 4 cheese souffle and a caramel iced latte. When I picked it up, I had a spinach and bacon souffle. Apparently they didn't have any more when I placed the order and she wrote on the back of the ticket they were out, but I didn't see it because the receipt was stapled to the bag and it wasn't even a thought to turn the receipt over. I took it up to the cashier and she said there were some four cheese souffles in the oven and it would be about 9 minutes, so I said I'd wait.
In the meantime, I got my caramel latte - it didn't taste like caramel at all. The server explained that they only use caramel liquid and not drizzle, so she understands why it doesn't taste like caramel. So I asked her about the vanilla, and she said it was the same liquid stuff, so it may not taste like vanilla either. I asked her if she could switch to the iced Chai Latte since it was the same price, which she gladly did. But honestly when I took a sip, I felt sick - it tasted so processed and not like Chai Latte at all.
Not knowing what to do, I asked if she could exchange it for the blueberry lemonade, which she graciously did. She told me it was very sweet, but when I got it, it seemed a kind of bitter... just a weird flavor to me. I just tossed it.
Finally the four cheese souffle was ready. I went to get it and started eating - and it was overcooked, so much that the crust was dried out.
Look...maybe it was just me, but I just don't remember Panera being this bad. The service was great, but the food...not so much.

The customer service is always friendly and uplifting, and no matter which chain I go to, the food is always phenomenal and fresh.
You don't have to wait too long. Just enough time to know that you are getting, I'm sort of prepared for you the right way.
However, they may provide just a little bit more proportions.

Made special takeaway order. Elaine at Toms River store was extremely helpful and they exevuted the order for 25+ people flawlessly and delivered it timely
Delicous boxed lunches enjoyed by all. Most important was the kind and patient help Elaine offered with a smile at a very difficult time. She was professional and wonderful!!
