I'm in their sip club and I was pleased to see they had a Newport location, as we had been trekking around all day and were tired. At home I usually get the lemonade but honestly I just wanted a huge cup of water so I did that. My boyfriend always gets the large Diet pepsi. We also ordered two bagels to have for lunch because the tour we were on was from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. which didn't leave us any time for lunch.

We were on a time crunch and their service was slow and sloppy. Will not step foot in this Panera again unless things change.
