Panera Bread

A delightful, cozy little Panera. A little pricey, as Panera often is, but it's right next to a movie theatre, so nice place to grab lunch or dinner before a film, or maybe chat about the movie after with some Danishes and coffee. My meal was also done impressively fast despite their having a staff shortage when I was there. In the end though, it's Panera, it hasn't changed much in 20 years 😆

This location is one of my favorites of all time for so many reasons. Firstly, its situated pretty close to my job, which has made it so easy to pop in for some delicious healthy food. Tonight would be no different! I already knew what I wanted to order even before I came inside. It was my typical go-to Mediterranean with chicken bowl. With only a total 640 calories, it never ceases to amaze me about how filling and delicious this bowl really is! Right around 8pm the place was fairly busy, with probably 10 groups of people seated and eating their dinner. I placed my order to go with the employee behind the cash register, although the smart thing would have been to place my order online. It didn't make a huge difference because they had my bowl prepared and ready in less than five minutes! This place always delivers, and I love it!

I like Panera a lot but this location is truly dropping their quality control. I've gotten meals where the customizations were not addressed, or where I don't get sufficient dressing for a regular salad. However, it's a true problem when I'm getting served raw eggs for breakfast. I even called to bring this up to the Manager and the phone just rang and then I immediately got hung up on. Extremely disappointed

My second time visiting, friendly environment and very thankful to Elsa. She was attentive, kind, and very helpful to choose food from the menu. One thing that I observed of the store, cleanness...starting main floor...ending in bathroom. I think, both, need to be improved. Overall, experience was great!

I visited Panera Bread for take out lunch yesterday. As expected, it was quite was busy. There was a list of names on the waiting list. I was tired and beginning to regret my choice when a young employee offered me a big smile accompanied by a cookie while I waited. Brian was managing the orders as they were completed and created a smile on every waiting face. An employee like Brian makes such a difference in each customer’s opinion as they leave. Keep employees like Brian and customers will come back!
