| - I don't know why this location keeps getting such stingy ratings. Let's be honest: Panera is a chain and more or less can be considered fast food since this location even has a drive-thru for gods sake. In my opinion, the food here is higher quality than what you would get at McDonald's, which is also a fast food chain where you can get stuff for cheap prices. Therefore, the prices here can be expected since the quality is higher and, hey, its in a city. Everything in cities that isn't considered subpar potentially toxic junk is going to have a fair price on it.
Secondly, why do people expect the finest chefs of the area to be working here?? No, those chefs are going to be at nice sit-down restaurants that are most likely local non-chains. Therefore, you /will/ get average food here. Honestly, any fast food shouldn't be expected to be exquisite. Its called fast-food for a reason.
Every time I go here (probably once every other week) the workers are nice and the food is nice quality. Its not kiss-your-fingers delicious but because I don't expect that whatsoever, but its still pretty great compared to other fast-food options. Plus, there's healthier options here compared to other places. I understand low ratings if you've found your food super pathetically made (as in a sandwich that's soggy or cold soup that should be hot, a bug in the food, etc.), but giving a fast food chain one or two stars for not having exquisite quality food and reporting that this location is closed b/c of it is pretty laughably pathetic.
