    The soufflés are amazing. Bagels are good but they under toast them and don't add the cream cheese or butter for you leaving you with a cold toasted bagel.

    My favorite Panera for catering in the area! Nick is always on his game, and the soufflés are killer

    This location is a bit small. Go at off hours to find a place to sit.

    So comforting to come in for a bowl of chicken noodle soup on a cold day!

    A/C is strong. Bring a sweater or light jacket if you'll be staying & working inside. My fav local Panera!

    Check your bag for everything before you leave the drive thru. They always seem to forget something.
