Panera Bread

This Panera Bread location is exceptional! The restaurant is incredibly clean, with the staff and management always maintaining a spotless environment. The sandwiches are fresh, hot, and more satisfying compared to other locations. Their baked goods are always well-stocked and beautifully presented, with a variety of delicious pastries to choose from. The staff are friendly and attentive, especially Crystella, who works during the day and makes the best sandwiches! Dolores, and Angela who are always kind and friendly every morning, brings a warm and cheerful start to your day! what a great way to kick things off with such positive energy! Management is often seen in the lobby, ensuring everything is perfect. If something’s not right, they’re happy to fix it. Highly recommend this location

We asked for the bagels to be put through the toaster again. She told us that she couldn’t do that once the ordered crossed the pickup counter, granted the bagels were put inside bags, even though we ordered dine-in. We asked for the manager believe her name was Jamica, who already knew the situation. She came over with a r

I had a great experience at Panera Bread thanks to Dolores! She was incredibly helpful and friendly, and her positive attitude made my visit even better. She even gave me free drinks, which was such a kind surprise. The service, food, and warm smiles will definitely bring me back!
