Their French onion soup is consistently excellent, and the baguettes are also very good, especially when they come fresh out of the oven!

I was in this location a few months back and felt the pain of staff trying to serve customers without enough workers. I came back recently, and they turned the place around. Management has done an awesome job at turning things around in these difficult pandemic times. It simply felt like employees were happier and things were running smoothly. Awesome job Panera! Thank you for serving my food and I have a lot of respect for all that actually shows up for work and continue to smile despite many challenges all around us.

The restaurant has wonderful, friendly staff and offers delicious food and excellent service. They do a fantastic job even during tough times. Linda has been exceptional for years—she's hardworking and always welcoming. It's a great spot to meet up with friends.
