Food tastes great, especially the bread bowl soups and pastries. Service is good for what it is, which is more cafe style rather than a restaurant/dining in experience. As long as you know what to expect going in to it, you'll enjoy yourself. The coffee's not bad either.
For awhile there the service was getting really sub-par, attitudes from the staff and lack of cleanliness. There must have been a change in management cause now all the staff are different and friendly and it feels much cleaner. The food seems fresh. Just wish the coffee was better. The coffee you serve yourself is usually bitter, don't know if it is because it's sitting out there in the thermal containers too long or what. But if I order a coffee from the counter, like a latte or cappuccino, it's always good. Love the crusty bread and their green passion smoothies.
Panera is consistent on tomato soup - haven't had an off bowl yet. Sandwiches can vary, today the steak and arugula was fine, well constructed and tasty. Service was more attentive than usual.
I got 2 salads and 2 small drinks and it was $25. I'm not cheap but it was double the value of what I recieved. The bread I got looked like someone took a big bite out of it. Or it was very badly hand torn and half bvb the size of my friends piece.
The salad was a bacon, egg salad. I got the bacon on the side since I'm a vegetarian presently, 4 years but going back to meat soon. The salad was hearty, slight bit if grit. A lot of taste. Wish I took pictures but I was so hungry.
If you're on a budget pass by this place.
Close to home. Staff is nice. Always get your food pretty quickly. Came during lunch on a Friday and it wasn't too busy but every single table I wanted to sit at was dirty. That's why I gave it 4 stars.
