Panera Bread

I have to stay put in Louisville today for most of day waiting on my pet while he has surgery. I chose to come here to get some work done while I wait. I’m always worrisome about lingering in a location too long thinking I’ll wear out my welcome. However, here is quite the contrary. I purchased my breakfast and coffee, got to work and the employees here have been so kind! I think I’ve been speaking with the manager. She has come and checked on me a few times, made small talk with me and even gifted me with a small gift card to get a snack since she knew I’d be here most of the day! Customer service and atmosphere get an A+ from me!

Great experience at another Panera while traveling! I joined the Sip Club in April and it certainly has me looking for Panera's when I travel which is frequently. Absolutely love ordering on the app, loading gift cards, Etc. I think our local panera, not this location, has trouble with Staffing and their drive-thru has been frequently closed. Just wish that was reflected on the app when they ask how you want to pick it up. I almost always designate to pick it up and drive through, but if it's closed, I have to park and go inside to pick it up. Most of the time that's not a huge deal but it would be nice to know so I can build in the extra time if needed. This location had a very friendly and efficient drive-through staffer. My order was ready when I got to the window but I was about 4 to 5 cars back and it seemed a little slow to move to start with. Soup, baguette and yogurt were all excellent as usual. I completely appreciate the consistency in quality throughout this chain. When I can do a sit-down meal, I always try to find a local spot but, the Sip Club has me seeking out this chain!

If you haven't tried the Mediterranean Veggie sandwich at Panera bread yet.. Run! Run to try it NOW! Delicious! This is my new Panera favorite! And no worries about staying power for a veggi sandwich because this sandwich carries about 26 grams of protein!!!!
