I ordered through the drive thru. When ordering, I saw wild rice chicken soup was not listed on the menu. Concerned for my mission, I asked the gentleman taking my order if it was available. He said yes! So I proceeded to order, and even got a 2 for one in case my stomach could handle the extra sandwich, and he rung me up. Upon payment, he did not repeat my order, but I didn’t care. All I could think about in that moment was the wild rice soup.
He then handed me a broccoli cheddar. At this, I knew I had to clarify, “I’m sorry, I asked for wild rice at the speaker. Do you all have it?” The employee said they were out of stock. I was devastated, as I did not get what I believed I had paid for, and I wouldn’t have ordered at all if they didn’t have the soup.
Admittedly, I’ve gotten emotional over this. I wanted the wrong to be righted, and for others seeking the wild rice to not be mislead if this employee made the same mistake. I wanted a sign on the menu that said clearly there was no wild rice soup to be found here. So, after returning home, I called the store manager. When I explained the situation, he said they *did* have the soup in stock. This only added to my negative emotions, as it wasn’t a simple mistake the drive through employee made, I was also lied to. Thankfully, the manager did offer to swap out my soup, but I had already returned home 20 mins away, and it was not worth the ache while being sick to drive back out.
I understand how difficult the lunch rush can be, and I have had many pleasant meals at this location before, but I was extremely let down by this encounter. I don’t understand why the drive through employee lied about having the soup in stock. If he had been honest, I would have simply gone inside then to swap my order, as I did not want to hold him or the drive thru line up. I appreciate the gesture of the manager, and understand that this was likely a simple mistake, but my trust has been broken.
I will not be returning to this location.
Always very clean. My friendly staff can get very cluttered at times but that’s what you get being next to the city. Overall it’s always a pleasant just in the food has been good.
Best believe I have called headquarters, got a refund and gave the location and the exact details of my past experience and the things that transpired with my order today. Never been so disgusted by the behavior of a store. And believe me, I’m the type that if my order got messed up even by accident I’ll usually eat it anyways because I feel bad sending things back. But this has happened way too many times and I’m not gonna spend $100 on crappy food that I can’t even eat and not get my money back. No thank you.
GO TO THE PANERA IN MIDDLETOWN!!!!!
I promise you there are so many better stores than this, do not take my experience and judge all of Panera. There’s always one bad apple in a bunch.
I have experienced very friendly service on multiple visits—this location.
Recently updated dining area—looks great!
⛔️ Many items appear healthy, but the saturated fat, sugar, and salt will sneak up on you—all locations.
I ordered a chicken Caesar salad and a green tea. $15 dollars worth of food. I got my green tea and they told me to pull around to the #1 drive thru spot and they would have it out in a “jiff”.
I waited 15 min for just the salad. When I got my self out of the car and made it into the building the workers looked at me like I was crazy because I was asking for my food. I assume the manager is whom handed me the food and said oh crap I’m so sorry. I grabbed the food off the counter and said I will never return. He said have a great day!
Ever since I broke my foot I understand the convenience of the drive thru and something more better for me than other fast food chains. Unfortunately this left a bad taste
In my mouth
So I get home and the pictures are the salad I waited for. Will never return!
