Panera Bread — Restaurant in Columbus

The story of a tragic young woman’s death at this location.

Once upon a time, there was a young woman named Sarah who loved trying out new foods. One day, she decided to try Panera Bread's famous squash soup.

As she savored every spoonful, she suddenly felt a strange sensation. Her skin began to tingle, and before she knew it, she was engulfed in a bright light.

When the light faded, Sarah realized that something incredible had happened. She had transformed into a Pokémon, with vibrant orange fur and a long, curly tail. She looked around and saw that she was inside the Panera Bread restaurant, surrounded by other Pokémon who were dining on bread, salads, and other treats.

At first, Sarah was confused and a little frightened, but she soon realized that being a Pokémon had its advantages. She could communicate with other Pokémon and understand their language. She also had incredible speed and agility, which allowed her to leap over tables and race through the restaurant with ease.

As Sarah explored her new surroundings, she discovered that each type of Pokémon had its own favorite food. The water-type Pokémon loved Panera Bread's refreshing lemonade, while the fire-type Pokémon couldn't get enough of the restaurant's spicy soups and sandwiches.

Sarah was delighted to be a part of this vibrant and exciting world, and she knew that she would never forget her amazing transformation. And whenever she craved a delicious bowl of squash soup, she knew exactly where to go.

But later she discovered the harsh reality of being in a Pokémon’s shoes. She had to battle.

Fire, Water, Fairy, Grass, and Bugs.

She fought them all.

Unfortunately, she was trapped within a Poké ball unable to escape she threw up squash soup inside of the ball. Drowning in her own throw up, she died, tragically, gasping for air. Can you understand witnessing this entire thing going on? How do you feel my shoes? I pray for Sarah’s family. And I also pray for this location improving their...

I am reviewing this Panera Bread location on the basis of accessibility for those who may be disabled. As far as outside the restaurant, there is only one lowered curb for those who are in wheelchairs so, those who have to park in the back of the parking lot would have to wheel themselves all the way to the front of the restaurant to get in. As you approach the restaurant, there are no handicap buttons at either of the entrances making it very difficult for someone who has a disability to get in the place safely. When you get into the restaurant, the walkways are pretty wide making it easy for a wheelchair to get around in the restaurant. As for the ordering kiosks, they are a bit high for someone who may be in a wheelchair limiting them to having to wait in line to order their food. When it comes to the menu, the font is pretty big making it easy for anyone to read. The drink station is a bit high as well making it harder for someone in a wheelchair to get the beverage that they want. When it comes to the dining area, it is very spacious and all the tables/booths are handicap accessible. Overall, this restaurant is semi-accessible for those who are disabled, but the restaurant definitely could improve in a lot of areas in order to make it more accessible for those who...

I recently placed an order from this Panera location via Uber Eats, and unfortunately, I was quite disappointed with the quality of the food. I ordered the half Smokehouse Chicken BBQ sandwich, a cup of Rustic Baked Potato soup, a Dr. Pepper, and an Orange Scone.

Having enjoyed this sandwich at another Panera location, I was familiar with its usual presentation. However, the sandwich I received was poorly assembled, with the chicken bunched to one side, the barbecue sauce haphazardly applied, and minimal cheese, some of which was hardened on the top of the outside of the sandwich.

To compound the issue, the soup delivered was not the Rustic Baked Potato soup I ordered, but rather a Chicken Noodle soup, which had unfortunately leaked during delivery, affecting the other items in the bag. Furthermore, the Dr. Pepper was completely flat.

While I understand that occasional errors can occur, this is the second time I have received subpar food from this particular Panera location. It's disheartening, as I generally enjoy Panera's offerings, but the lack of care in preparing and packaging my order was evident. I hope this review encourages the team to pay closer attention to the quality of their food and...
