    My rating isn't necessarily an accurate reflection of the product since the last two times I've went in I haven't been able to order anything. You're probably asking why I wasn't able to order anything? Well, b/c both times I went in I wanted Bread Bowls for me and my wife, and we were told, Panera Bread was out of bread! I find it hard to believe this is a rare occurrence and that I just happened to come in the 2 times they ran out of bread, even though the worker there tried to make it seem this wasn't something that happens a lot. But, 15 seconds later, she suggested we come in earlier, lunchtime, in order to have a better chance of getting a bread bowl. The problem is I live over an hour away and I can't get over there at a whim. We went to Teriyaki Madness right after another disappointment at Panera (No) Bread and it was very good. I still want the bread bowl but not sure I'm willing to give this place another chance since they don't seem to value their customers. I have YET to hear from Panera Bread about this, and I guess this shows once again they do not care about the customer. Completely unacceptable and unprofessional.
