I have eaten at a couple of different Panera's over the last few years. I prefer the old Paradise Bakery model a lot more. We stopped by here after a long week of events. I ordered a ham and swiss sandwich, side of mac and cheese and a lemonade. The food was good.
The layout in this location is strange. There are kiosks where you can order the food your self. Then there are cubby holes I guess for you food when it is completed. There are cashiers too. I spent a few seconds looking for the lemonades. I went to where I thought they would be located, but was wrong. Had to walk to what felt like the end of the line.
I had to think of a way to sum this place up. The food is okay. This location comes across too superfluous and over thought. It reminds me of the movie Rising Sun. They had a plot and they tried way to hard to make the movie intriguing by adding unnecessary twist. They could have made the movie simpler and accomplished the same task. They could have made this place with a simpler layout and be more comfortable.
