I enjoy the wide diversity of offerings and the ambiance of the establishment. It is a fun social meeting place, after a while you recognize the regulars and waitstaffwhich adds to the atmosphere.

Customer service here is highly lacking. I have stood waiting to order and no one has even paid me any attention. Thefood is your normal panera food and I have only recieved one wrong order. I am posting a picture of the lobster roll which wasokay but lacked flavor.

Sufficient parking is around the corner. It does get a bit busy around the lunchtime rush. The bathrooms, while a bit dated, have always been clean enough. The food has always been great. Apart from the lunchtime rush, and people hangingout for hours using the wifi, normally there is plenty of indoor seating. There is some limited outdoor seating if that is yourthing. The staff have always been friendly and responsive.

I'm also upset their online menu doesn't match the indoor menu. Only one register and longlines add to the frustration. Do better, we can eat better. Love them though.

I literally had to use a napkin to remove the food items from the seat and table that are shown in the pictures. I asked for the Dinh f room to beserviced and someone strolled through and wiped down a few tables but didn?t service the floor ????????????
