    I waited from 11:51-12:15 for an iced chai tea latte with certain items on it. The Barista and manager argued with me about the details of the drink instead of just fixing it. They threw together my drink quickly no apologies nothing! And then continued to argue with me about it.

    Pumpkin soul, Ceasar’s salad and a sandwich: everything was quite good. Service kind and prompt.

    Food has gone down a lot in quality over the last few months or within the last year. Very disappointed. This is not the same Panera I had as a kid or even a year ago. Foccocia bread wasn’t the same, shredded chicken was dry. Venture capitalists who bought Panera need to stop cutting corners. On the bright side, the staff were friendly and nice and provided us great service!
