Food is always hot, the rotation is always balanced and somewhere the sweet treats never run out but maintain consistent quality. I have ordered throughout several times of day at this Panera and loved each and every visit. The staff are very friendly and maintain cleanliness within the store. I prefer this one to the Nottingham location- I’ll write a review on them shortly Stay great!

The white lady manager on September 8th, 2025, is so kind and helpful and non-judgemental and just good vibes. Good job keeping her as manager. She deserves it and is a good person. :')

Prior to leaving home I order my breakfast, before they are open, I leave for work and stop on the way and my bag is waiting for my next to the entrance. You can't beat that. Once at work I've got a nice hot sandwich and a delicious blueberry scones. Great way to start the day.

I love that this Panera is located near five below and several little shops. My go to order is a Cinnamon Crunch Bagel. They have less options for cream cheese flavors. So I pick honey walnut. Today I ordered a orange cranberry muffin with a smoothie. It was delicious.

The Panera Tuna sandwich is so heavenly that one might secretly smile at the notion the angels are breaking Parmesean Toast to go with that delectably & perfectly seasoned French Onion Soup. Yum Yum Yum!

Got the you pick 2 with the croque monsieur and the Mexican corn chowder. Both were decent. The staff were pleasant. The tables weren’t very clean. We had to wipe crumbs from our table when we sat down and that was one of the cleaner tables.
