Panera Bread

The food is usually great. I take off a star because occasionally they are out of some of the menu items we like and not a fan of the parking in this plaza. Sometimes you can't find a seat due to the students from the school across the street. Other than that, doesn't stop me from coming in if the mood strikes.

Ate breakfast there on 10/2/22. Had a very yummy breakfast sandwich. However, it seemed to take forever to come. Granted, they were very busy, and I’m sure they were short staffed like every other restaurant in town right now. On the other hand, it gave me a good long time to catch up with the girlfriend I had met there for breakfast! Would absolutely go back.

Excellent place to dine for any meal. Delicious, mostly healthy, food with relatively fresh, high-quality ingredients are offered here for a slightly higher price than the average food establishment but is arguably well worth the cost. Orders are reported to sometimes be wrong, but risk seems to be relatively low. The building is usually quite clean, with mostly clean bathrooms to match. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available. Indoor area can get quite loud at times. It is dimly and evenly lit and has a nice overall atmosphere. Staff is typically friendly and quick about fulfilling orders. The status of ordered food is queued via buzzers. Lines are rarely long. Food can also be ordered via tablets near the entrance.

Panera is as always great. Good food. Clean restaurant. The staff wasn't rude but not pleasant either. Maybe it was just a bad day but not very friendly. I spoke with two people. The first I ordered with and she never smiled or said welcome or anything like that. The second I asked where i could find the water and I got a very brisk answer. It didn't ruin my visit but it didn't make me feel very welcome.
