Panera Bread - Windermere

I ordered a whole chicken Greek salad and was disappointed to find several pieces of brown and black, spoiled lettuce mixed in. Thankfully, I noticed it while stirring the salad to mix in the dressing. Because of this experience, I no longer order from this location. It seems many of the young staff members don’t understand the importance of food sanitation. Absolutely disgusting!

This classic restaurant is a great place to enjoy time with family and friends, whether they're locals or visiting from abroad. The food is superbly flavorful, and the salad is absolutely delightful!

I ordered a Mediterranean bowl. It was very poor and not worth it. Never coming back again. I use to love Panera. It is getting worst and worst at every visit.

I dread going to this Panera. Today there were two cars in front of me and it took me 9 minutes to get one breakfast sandwich. On average it takes about 8 to 12 minutes to drive-thru. When I get up to the window there's about five young kids standing around who could give a flying F about customer service. Below is a screenshot. I decided to time my visit today, and that is after I placed my order. ?

SERIOUSLY???? Is Panera Bread on some sort of downward trajectory no one told me about? The last 3 visits have been a complete waste of my time and resources (money...lol). All 3 visits my orders were incorrect. All the 3 visits, I 've had to go back and return my order. The first time I allowed for the situation to be corrected by agreeing to allow them to remake my order the right way. That didn 't work out and I wasted more time. The next 2 visits, I just asked for a refund. Now I 'm NOT RETURNING to give them an opportunity to waste my time. Here 's some good business advice... if you 're going to hire youngins (cheaper labor) to work these positions, I 'm going to need you to invest in better training. The majority of these youngins 'working ' at your establishment, don 't have the developed brain cells, communication skills, or a modicum of judgment and conflict resolution to be trusted with your paying customer. #ImJustSayin
