I want to like it. The price is a lot. $17+ for a half Greek Salad and Half Turkey BLT. The Greek Salad had maybe 4 thin pieces of Feta. If that's the case charge less.

This cafe is pretty quiet. Which we liked it. We ordered pizza, sandwich and tea. And the employees wanted us to leave asap It was before 9pm lol. We ordered food and waited for 20mins. No one let us know that food was ready. An employee who has bright eyebrows was the only kind one in this cafe.

Nice food but the people who serve food are not professional nor friendly. One time I asked for the toothpick on the sandwich and the food service lady was so mad (I think she is new) and she stabbed the sandwich with the toothpick. Another time, they took away my coke cup and said they gave it to me already. When they found out they had bad memory, there was no sorry.

This place is pricey now, A pick 2 with a bowl of soup, which, by the way, fit into the pick 2 soup bowl . With 2 drinks, was $42 . I feel that it was expensive considering it wasn't two full meals.If you're getting soup, get the smaller size , it's the same amount of soup as the larger bowl.

Everything that could be wrong...Went wrong. The offer of 1 dólar soup, with paid entree. Was only offered over the app. (I didn't have the app)Then I was waiting and waiting for my food to come out. And after several minutes ( I think about 25) I approach the window, and ask how long it will take, my food to be ready. And the lady told me. It was out already. I said, it's impossible. Because I was the whole time in front of the window and the food never came. So she rush to make our sandwiches.Only to realize, that they weren't that great...I'm sorry about the whole experience. I will think twice before I come back.

Utensils had food on them. We asked to replace them and received equally dirty utensils. Manager said machine might be broken. Normally, I'm a fan of panera, but this was a bad experience.

Honestly I really do t know what people like about this place, overpriced, place is dirty and food is mediocre at best. When the franchise was first open they really tried hard and the quality of the food was good. Now it's half ass customer service. This particular location needs a total do over. I had a half sandwich and soup. Soup was ok, sandwich turkey meh.... Reminded me of subway, honestly I think subway was better. Anyway u won't catch me here anytime soon.....m

The place is utter trash run by mgr who have zero customer service skills. Three time ive had the order wrong. And have to return. No im sorry. No let me help. All attitude. They need better workers and better training. For 2 grilled cheese sandwiches and three soups its 50.00 and than its all wrong. And than i have to back and the workers are annoyed that im not happy with the wrong order. The store is so poorly run. The mgmt should be better. .

Panera has alot of volume for only one cashier! This was the third time we went there, it was busy and only one cashier. There prices have increased and the parking is shared by a gym next door!

I have been ordering rapid pick from this location quite frequently and never had the reason to be disappointed however my order today was very disappointing. I ordered a Tuna Salad sandwich and the bread was stale.

There is no hot water for tea or the black tea also in the coffee pits are empty? I am a regular customer. I hope they look at this review. Thanks.
