I encountered some issues with my coupon and the cashier was unable to use the app. I was feeling frustrated, but then manager Rob stepped in and handled the situation flawlessly! This is why I choose to have my business meetings at Panera! Thank you, Rob!
The food was great. I am a creature of habit though, I get the same thing almost everyday so I can't speak to the variety there. However, the broccoli cheddar soup and the BBQ chicken sandwich are great. They are very under staffed, so plan a little extra wait.
Very familiar, convenient place to get above-average quality breakfast pastries, sandwiches and wraps. Usually my choice for a quick bite to eat when we are in the area. Beautiful atmosphere inside
This is my local Panera. I've come here a number of times since arriving. I've had an interesting experience. In the beginning, it was great. During the height of COVID, it was awful. Now? Well, they're trying. I know everyone is having difficulty in terms of the food service industry. About 6 months ago, this Panera couldn't make a $1 cup of ramen noodles if it tried. The flatbreads were soupy, orders would get screwed up, I would wait 20 minutes in line. But in my last 3 trips or so, the effort has been top notch. For example, an employee messed up my mobile order. When I explained, it was remedied right away, and the culinary director came over to apologize offered me a free cookie. I can really see that they're trying to make everything work smoothly, so I officially like this place again. Also, the employee named Brandon is probably the nicest, most helpful, and most efficient employee I've met in any restaurant, not just at any Panera. He's always so friendly and positive. Even when I swore off coming to this Panera, I figured that if Brandon was working, it was worth it, because he'd get my order right and have a smile. Thanks Brandon. I'm moving, so I won't be coming to this Panera anymore, but I wish it the best!
