Panera Bread

Panera really needs to start serving vegan options. I couldn't eat but my Mom enjoyed her chicken teriyaki bowl. The staff and manager were extremely helpful! The lady manager even said she'd mention to corporate that they need vegan options, super kind of her to be so thoughtful. The screen tells you when your food is being prepared & when it's ready. Very advanced technology! Even pulled up my mom's last name (even though we only entered a nickname with the order)- hmmm?! LOTS of people working on laptops, the entire back section was almost full of them... looked like an office! There was still plenty seating in the main corridor though . The teas and lemonade was tasty! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options, but no vegan. Mostly everything has dairy in it. Parking: Free shared lot, many spaces available.

Two people with messed up orders trying to get a rude manager to assist them. Stacks of brown boxes create an ugly environment. Only 3 types of bagels available at 10:30 in the morning. Every open table was dirty af. When the kitchen staff handed me my order, the top half of the bagel fell into her meal prep area, she just picked it up and put it back on the sandwich. If this place didn’t make good bread idk how they’d stay in business.

2-29-2024 I have no idea what happened but this Panera Bread was out of bread bowls or baguettes that go with the soup! They refused to substitute a bread on the side without charging me extra. I paid $32 for 2 soups, one sandwich and 2 half slices of bread that they didn't even wrap and charged me extra for. $32 without drinks. I could have gone to a far nicer establishment for that price! This is not how to run a business.

I would never go out of my way to write a bad review, but this location of Panera has been the worst experience ever. The manager was so rude and had no intentions to help her customers and to provide a good service. The worst manager ever!!!!

Take out was just as fresh as dinner in!

Be careful when choose option to add avocado to your salat. You will pay $1.70 for that but will get maybe 3 small cubes. Ripp off!
