Alicia was very sweet and helpful cashier. I was unsure of what to get and she was very patient. I highly recommend this location. Thank you Alicia for being so kind!!!

This was my first time going to a Panera Bread, and I was expecting a bland menu consisting only of salads. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that it had many hearty and filling options, many of which were vegetarian! I ordered the tomato soup and grilled cheese, with a slice of baguette. It was all very good, but I wish the grilled cheese was a bit more toasted. All in all, this was 100% a five star experience. I will be back!

I love panera, but I want to let yall know so it can be fixed. The soda machine tastes like mold. I ordered water but I could not get past the taste, so then I tried the brisk raspberry tea and it still tastes like mold. I have to take my food somewhere else and eat so I can get something to drink..

The food is amazingly good
The service sucks. They want you to use kiosks and order yourself instead of a human actually taking your order. For a place so expensive people deserve better than that. Please do better, especially for the elderly and handicapped population.

This location is great in general. Friendly and fast. I tried the new Croque Monsieur Croissant Toast but I was not a fan. I didn't hate it but I can't imagine that I would ever order it again.

We stopped here on our way back to Dallas on a Saturday evening. We ordering on the kiosk I learned they were out of some ingredients but ordered something else. When I went to pick up my order, I learned they were out of all bagels (qualified for a free one) & was disappointed in the look of the inside of the store. I went to the restroom & discovered that the girl just mopped the floors. There was a ton of water on the floor which concerned me if they were slippery. I informed the manager of this fact. I don't know if they had a really busy day but the restaurant & employees looked old & tired. I won't be stopping here ever again...😟

I don’t normally complain on reviews but I wanted my ham :( I did switch the provolone cheese for Parmesan but I didn’t get any ham and barely any cheese, mostly just spread. I did a pick up order and I drove off with it before I noticed. I did still eat most of it because I was hungry but it’s pretty annoying to pay $10 for two pieces of bread wirh sauce.
