Panera Bread

I typically love Panera bread. Everything from bread to salads, soups and pastries. This time was a disappointment. I ordered one of my favorites, you pick two: poppy seed chicken salad & Napa almond chicken salad. From the looks of it the salad seems fine but I promise you most of the lettuce in this salad was inedible due to severe wilting which defeats the purpose of the salad. That’s half a salad trashed. They ran out of bread for the sandwich which is not an issue but the flavor of the chicken salad was incredibly bland like someone did not season it well. Oh and let’s not forget the cashier that rung us up barely listened to our order with her ear pod in and kept messing up my one bagel (not pictured) thru the slicer. It came out crooked which is okay but it wasn’t toasted like I asked of her. Whatever it was that distracted her that night made a bad impression on this restaurant tonight.

I’ve personally I want to say, that every time my husband and I have been at this Panera everybody has been super nice so kind…i could go on and on. But, I want to also mention the pride flags! It is so nice and refreshing to see a business in the south standing as an ally not only with their employees but also those in the community. I am so for it and I want to applied your employees and your managers and owner!

Went in before 5 minutes before lunch time and still had to order breakfast, So we ordered 4 breakfast sandwiches and a bagel, we waited for a good 20 minutes when the place was empty, all the while we sat and listened to the kitchen staff goof off and play, when we finally got out food it was ice cold and the forgot the bagel ,didn't have any other bagels. Needless to say we sat our cold food on the counter and got our money back. If I could give zero stars.
