I'm a big Panera fan. Nationwide, they seem to have their S together. The quality is always the same. This one didn't disappoint. The staff is nice, and the building is clean. At this particular Panera, I had the Hazelnut coffee on two different mornings. Both times, my coworker went to the Starbucks next door. Both mornings, I got an iced coffee for half the price she paid. AND I got my coffee and went back to wait with her while she waited for over 5 minutes for her order. So go Panera!

Panera Bread is one of my favorites. Amazing bread, good coffee, and a darn good selection of pastries, croissants, ORANGE SCONES, etc. They also have great soups and sandwiches. One of my favorites is the Roast Beef on Asiago Bread. My fiancee likes the Bacon Turkey Bravo. This location is so-so, well pretty good, but I have a personal vendetta that makes me have to rate them as so-so. First, friendly staff. On the numerous occasions I have been here, I have always been impressed with the chipper attitudes carried by the staff. Great GREAT great customer service. Even when it is very busy, they are patient, smiling, and so friendly. Next, clean restaurant. Bathrooms are clean, tables are clean, everything in that department checks out just fine. I have been to some Panera Bread stores where they are a bit lax on cleaning the tables, but I have never had that problem here. Now on to the complaining. The only reason this Panera does not get a 4 or 5 star review is because THEY ARE ALWAYS OUT OF WHAT I WANT! I am a fiend for the Asiago Cheese Bagels. 3 of the last 5 times I was here...OUT!!! I want to spazz out and start spraying spit from my mouth and throw my arms around in the air like a crazy person and mess up my hair and then beat my arms on the counter like a monkey and then lay on the ground and start crying and thrashing like a baby BUT I DON'T! I respectfully say okay, darn, how about an Everything Bagel. 2 of the last 5 times I was there...OUT!!!! Now I feel steam coming out of my ears BUT I bite my lip and keep it cool. I settle for the Cinnamon & Sugar Bagel. They are good, but then I have to consider whether eating all that sugar means that I should skip the coffee. Then I remember that I am freakishly addicted to caffeine and have a tolerance higher than the Empire State Building. Sugar is good, but does not have the chemical amazingness of coffee. So I get the Cinnamon & Sugar Bagel with a coffee. Coffee is self serve. That makes refills very convenient. One while you are there and one to go. You can also mix it up and get a different type, Dark Roast, maybe? Their bagels, all of them, are as good as their breads. They probably run out of my favorites because they do such a good job here and have lots of regulars. All those darn regulars eat them out of house and home and then I have to deal with the consequences. I will be back to this location, and I promise to update the review to 4 or maybe even 5 stars so long as they have my Asiago Cheese Bagels. MMMMmmmmmMMM. I want one now, un-toasted, with cream cheese on the side, PLEASE!!!

I frequent Panera quite a bit because I love the variety of food and I like almost everything so it's perfect. This was not my regular store, but I was hungry and in the neighborhood so I stopped. It was the normal busy lunch time and the service was quick even though it was jammed packed. I ordered the pick two; half Lemon Chicken Orzo soup and Greek salad with chips and the Tropical Hibiscus tea. My food was ready by the time I made my drink. My soup was hot and the salad was fresh! Panera never disappoints no matter which one I go too!

Panera is one of the most popular cafes out there, so don't be surprised if you come in later at night on a busy day only to find out that their soups are limited; from the time Panera opens they have a variety of soups to choose from, and since they're included in their special U-Pick-2 deal they'll go fairly quickly up until the late evening. I've been in that situation a couple times before, but that doesn't mean the last couple of options aren't good, just that they weren't as popular as, say, french onion or tomato soup. Anyway, Panera is a great place to eat on the go or to sit down. It does have its rush hours in the morning and during lunch so you'd have to hit early if you're on your way to work/class. There are a lot of menu items to choose, and most of them are really tasty. I personally love their souffles or egg & cheese on panini in the morning, or a U-Pick-2 for lunch/dinner which basically consists of your two choices between a soup, salad, or sandwich. I also enjoy their hot tea and chilled green tea (don't be fooled, it's not that authentic). You can also order simple meals like bagels with cream cheese. Mmm ~ Panera has a bakery section containing brownies, pastries, cookies, etc. I've enjoyed their cookies and brownies, but their pastries are too sweet for me, and their scones are too hard. The free wifi makes Panera a great study area if you can either a) choose a quiet place to sit or b) ignore the noise. I have mixed feelings about the staff especially management. There have been past female managers who were not very pleasant (or obviously feigning pleasantry) and that has put me off interacting with them. But as Panera's employees are rotated I get to see new faces and see who'll end up staying and leaving. Ha. The interior is constantly tended to, so there's no need to worry about dirty carpets, tables, or bathrooms.

Food is always good here, but the service is terrible. Well, at least on this Friday it was. It was almost closing time and it was definitely noticeable that everyone was in a hurry to close. There were still customers finishing their meals but an employee was mopping the floors. We had to walk over the wet floors. We were pressured to order when we weren't ready; it was very rude. These employees could use some more customer service training.

Almost everyday around 7:00pm Panera Bread is out of their good soups. On a recent Friday night, my wife and I were having the usual Friday night married couple conversation, I ask "Where do you want to go tonight?" she says "Oh I don't care, whatever you want is fine." (We all know that by making this statement, I have to use my man skills to try and figure out where she actually wants to go without asking her anymore questions). I made a few suggestions and decided on Panera Bread. We were both in the mood for some amazing broccoli cheddar soup with an extra side of bread. We make it to Panera and walk in with high hopes and look up at their "magnetic soup board" to discover only about two soups left up on the menu. These of course are the soups that nobody likes, such as "Low Fat Vegetarian Black Bean Soup". If it's black bean soup isn't it automatically vegetarian and low fat? We stand in awe for a few moments, look at our watches....read more at: greeneggsmarketing.com/2…
