I agree with the other comments that their prices are a little expensive, but the soufflés are SO good, and at $ 4 each, I’m not opposed to paying that. Lunch can get pricy if you bring the family(5of us), but if it’s just me and I’m getting breakfast or studying, this is my go to place. Usually pretty quiet making studying possible, even during lunch rush. I do agree that the tables aren’t wiped down regularly, and that’s a pet peeve of mine. They also offer Kcups of their coffee, which I find better then their fresh brew, and the same price as the grocery store cups.

Came in at 6 a.m. It was a friend date. I love their coffee. I had ordered a spinach and artichoke soufflé accompanied by a small coffee. The raw sugar here is awesome, and skim milk…(healthy) She had ordered a four cheese soufflé and a small coffee as well. They half & half and skim. Raw sugar, spend, sweet and low etc. The hazelnut coffee is okay. But the dark roast is where it’s at. They have some awesome panini’s especially the Frontega. It’s a must try. The seeting in front of the building is serene, you get the best experience. The smell of fresh bread baked, and warn bagels toasting… so pleasant. I used to work here, I must say that the new manager is much better.

If you’re dining inside good luck finding a clean table, each time I’ve been here it looks as though no one cleans in here… the food is great but I’d like to eat at a clean table.

I Am Totally Rating The Food Only! My girlfriend(Jeni) and I ate there several weeks ago and we both ordered the same«You Pick Two» and that came with a half a Sierra Turkey Sandwich and a cup of Bristo French Onion Soup. Oh my goodness, it was absolutely awesome! The soup had a wonderfully deep beefy flavor that complimented the smooth, rich and sweet yet slightly tangy onions. The cheese that was all melted and oozing all over the top was so smokey and delicious. The cheesy croutons that floated on top were still nice and crunchy even after being slightly submerged in the soup. They even had a nice chunk of dunking bread on the side. The sandwich was on a cheesy bread that was thick and soft yet slightly chewy(in a good way) on the outside. The turkey was sliced thin and it had a nice smokey flavor that paired well with the kind of spicy(in a good way) mayo, mixed greens and red onions! Panera gets 2-Yums up from me for this meal!

Let’s face it. Panera’s is where you eat when you have money to burn and time to kill. The coffee selection is okay, and the lunch/dinner menu is more than adequate, but Pantera… do you think maybe you might lower your prices to be a little more in line with a place that features dirty tables filled with groups of loud teenagers who spend hours soaking up the free Wi-Fi? Don’t get me wrong: I like Panera for the baked goods. They have a shortbread cookie that is to die for. Buttery, tender and it simply surrenders itself to my mouth when I bite into it. The current counter staff is pleasant, friendly and reasonably quick. I simply don’t care for standing in a long line to order a fancypants sandwich and soup combo that with a drink is going to lighten my wallet by ten bucks or a little better. Panera, you do coffee great. Your baked goods are top-notch. Just remember that thou art mortal.

Eat here all the time! Spinach artichoke soflette is a must try for breakfast im addicted but get their early they don’t make many! Bacon turkey bravo for lunch! People are so friendly here. One down side is you have to wait a long time once In a while get your food. Get a Panera card! We get free stuff all the time! I think their new pasta too is way over priced! They are a little expensive over all, I can never leave the place without spending $ 10 but its downriver and we don’t have many nice places to eat on the go thats healthier than McDonalds. so its your choice.

Dirty tables. I like Panera’s food, but every time I go to this one I have trouble finding a clean table. Other than that, the food is good and I’ve never had trouble using their wi-fi like the previous reviewer.

Would it kill them to fix their internet? Really? First off, let’s all be honest. Those of that us like Panera have to admit that they are highly overpriced. The food is pretty good and I’m sure we all have our favorite food items there. Mine are the Sierra Turkey, Chicken Noodle Soup in a Sourdough Bread Bowl, and their Asiago Bagels. I have been to this Panera location with my boyfriend(who is located across the street) about 10 times. We usually go there every time to escape his home, eat, and use the internet. Each and every time we go there the same disappointing event occurs. The internet, assuming we can even hook up to it, drops the connection within a few minutes. After that you mine as well give up all hope. You aren’t going to get it again. This location is the worst when it comes to the internet. On numerous occasions we’ve tried using my laptop, then his laptop, his work laptop, and our two iPod Touches. Nothing. Nada. I was willing to accept that it might be the settings on one of our devices, but not when 5 of them can’t do it. If you are coming here to eat the food because you like it, then by all means, Panera is awesome. If you are coming here to eat and utilize the internet let the dream go and find somewhere else. Panera fail.

Love the baked goods. Coffee not so much. Microwaved bagel and egg sandwich really turned me off. Did I mention I loved the baked goods?

This is a great Panera location. Service is quick, even when the store is very busy. I love how they have the calorie info for each item up on the board. Food is always great… I love the black bean soup, the ceasar salad and any of the breads. Yum. Am sad they got rid of Jones Soda, but I will survive. ;). Comfy seating and friendly staff as well. Highly recommend for a quick lunch.
