We had to settle for sitting at a dirty table yesterday. About a third of the tables were taken when we got there, so there were plenty open. However, every one of them was covered in crumbs and other spilled food. This is not always the case, but has happened more than once. I went and found some napkins (one dispenser was empty) and brushed off the table, but it still wasn’t clean. While we ate, two workers did come through and clean some tables, so it’s not like it’s never done. Just not often enough.
The food is where I get the most frustrated. It’s inconsistent. When Panera is at the top of their game, most of the food is really good. I usually like the Philly cheesesteak sandwiches. Yesterday’s was pathetic. To call it an onion sandwich would be more appropriate. I do love onions and they were good, but I struggled to find steak or cheese on the sandwich. I also had the French onion soup, which lacked onion or cheese. The broth was all right and there were a lot of croutons, but seems strange to call it an onion soup when there were so few onions in it. Again, though, I’ve had this dish before and it’s been very good.
Also, when you do the pick two and get half a sandwich, the size varies to the point of being ridiculous. At times it’s close to being a full sandwich. Other times, it’s only a few bites. Yesterday’s was about what I’d expect for a half sandwich, so they got that part right.
Only complaint really is bathrooms are dirty and the smell upon entering is very off putting. Dining room was neither gross nor clean. It looked like the dining room of a busy restaurant. I would eat here again
So the food is typical panera food that you can get at any Panera Bread. However the staff here is mainly what I’m always running into an issue with. I went in to get something to eat after a long flight, waited 10 minutes for the guy working the counter to take 1 order in front the guy at the counter seemed to be having an issue getting the order correct. Then without saying a word just walked off, no one came up to replace him, other staff ignored us when I tried to say excuse me. It’s not the first time I’ve had a bad interaction with the staff there, I do try to be patient as I’ve worked in food service but there is definitely a limit. I’m sure they’re under staffed and stressed it’s just hard to deal with as a customer.
I left yesterday not ordering because I stood there and was not waited on.
Bad service yesterday so hopefully you don’t do that all the time.
