Description

The restaurant offers quick service but some find the pricing too high. Some dishes were poorly prepared and portions were not well-distributed. Others had positive experiences with food and service, like the well-prepared salads and friendly atmosphere. However, inconsistent portioning of dressing and issues with allergens were reported. Despite some concerns, many enjoy the cozy atmosphere, well-maintained facilities, and delicious baked goods. Overall, opinions are mixed on the quality and value provided by this restaurant.

The caramel latte was delish. The bakery section was almost empty so that was disappointing. The chocolate chip cookies are yummy as is the pecan twist, although the twist would have been better heated up. Employees were friendly.

My friend and I meet here for lunch at least once per month. Great food, well prepared and delicious baked goods. Bagels are the best! High ceilings and great ventilation for those with COVID concerns.

The staff and service at this restaurant were absolutely fantastic. However, the downfall was the poor quality of their drink carrier. I found it to be the worst carrier I have ever used. While leaving the restaurant, drinks fell out of the carrier even when using two hands. Additionally, in the car, the drinks flipped forward out of the carrier when I used my brakes. If you plan on purchasing more than one drink, I would recommend bringing your own carrier or refraining from buying multiple drinks.

I have experienced everything! I have never been to Panera before, but I doubt they provide complimentary cactus with your meal.
