"Never really experienced Panera Bread and all its glory til yesterday. Been coming here DAILY for over a week to eat, drink and do my tax prep. Today Spencer was working and kept the dining area crystal clean and ready for new customers to sit and enjoy their food beverages. He really added to the experience and even offered to take my dishes when we were done eating. Dined in and enjoyed one of their You pick 2 specials with a half salad half soup. The meal comes with a free piece of freshly made bread. Sign up for rewards and get a free pastry! Will definitely be back seeing as how I have signed up for the Monthly Sip Club. Definitely check that out if you plan to frequent this place. It is a heck of a deal. All the staff was super efficient but Mr. Spencer definitely added to the welcoming environment of the place. Seems several repeat customers know him well too. Once you visit a few times, the rewards system will generate coupon specials off of the 'You pick two ' and a couple bucks off of a breakfast sandwich. There is both booth and table seating indoors and a lovely gated patio area with tables and umbrellas. NOTE: Only about 5 or so tables indoors offer access to outlets for keeping work stations charging if you decide to make Panera your office area for a few hours. The coffee tea fountain drinks are self serve . Also, if you prefer to warm up a pastry, there is a microwave conveniently located below the coffee station. To adhere to CoVid protocols, Panera sends an sms alert when your food is ready for pickup vs using the handheld vibrating alert devices. If you are eating out on a budget, select a 'Value Duet ' $5.99 and you choose salad and soup or soup and half sandwhich with free item (baguette, apple or chips) and add on an additional pastry or desert for just .99. Enjoy!"
