Panera Bread - Amsterdam

I was disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. The Mango Smoothie did not come with a straw and the Homestyle Chicken Noodle Soup was mostly broth with very few noodles, chicken chunks, or carrots. Despite being sick, I tried to enjoy the broth but wished there was more substance in a $10 bowl of soup. I will not be ordering this item again.

The restaurant is unclean! They leave a smelly vacuum cleaner in the dining area, but it seems like they haven't cleaned in weeks! I discovered a long hair in my soup, and this is not the first time. The restaurant has deteriorated since the pandemic; why bother staying open? We will not be coming back here. The management is extremely poor.

I waited for 27 minutes in the drive-thru just to order a soup and bread. I still haven't been able to place my order yet. The service and speed are absolutely terrible.

This restaurant is a great spot for a casual meal or a leisurely lunch with a friend. The atmosphere is excellent and offers enough privacy for a personal conversation. The food and drink selection is delicious, especially the coffee which is fantastic. There is something on the menu for everyone, so I need to try it all. Additionally, they provide free Wi-Fi, making it a perfect spot to catch up on work while enjoying your coffee. The seating is plentiful and well spaced out. I highly recommend this restaurant!

I haven't been to Panera in many years, but I was craving a sandwich. I liked the Pick 2 option, so I ordered a half turkey avocado sandwich, a cup of soup, and a regular drink. When I got to the window, they charged me almost $19. I was surprised by the cost but in a hurry. I am still confused by their pricing.
