Good, friendly service. Â As a coffee addict on the conservative side, I can get my good coffee fix, enjoy wifi, while not supporting that liberal coffee house. Â As an added bonus... Have the Greek salad with a baguette side... Oo lala and opa! Â Sweet treats too. Â What more could you ask for?
Review Source:Looks like this Panera was also hit by the bad recipe update that ruined the cinnamon scone - my #1 item on the dessert menu.
The formerly nice - fresh pastry has been updated in recipe to include a thick overly sweet frosting which gives a once excellent dessert a cheap kid's treat sugary taste.
Still great atmosphere / environment at panera, baguettes and soups I eat still are great, but when I think of Panera, I think of dessert / pastries in addition to the environment. Hoping things turn back around soon!
I know, I know, reviewing chain restaurants is silly buuuut I really liked this Panera! I haven't been in a while, so I was blown away by the expanded menu-- there was a delicious steak salad that made my day!
The place was clean, the staff friendly, and I liked the way they set up the lines: order, grab your drink at the next station, and by the time you had your drink your food was up at the end to pick up! The seats were comfortable, the lighting nice, and the bathrooms were clean.
We came through on our way to Nashville and I'm glad we went out of our way to eat here.
Every year around Christmas time
that same green card arrives,
with greetings from my uncle
and a gift card to Panera inside.
And my sisters and I all gather
into a cozy booth (or two)
to nosh and play catch up
over some sandwich-type food.
The Mediterranean Veggie
is always my go-to pick.
My sisters are more meat-eating
and like their sammies thick.
It's a decent time
and the employees are just fine.
I'll be seeing you later this year
right around Christmastime!
