I like the decor, but they took the steak and blue cheese salad off the menu. I know we're talking about the Exeter branch, but just showing a trend...the last time I ate at Wyomissing Panera, I ordered the chicken salad sandwich, which had about a quarter size dollop of chicken salad on it. When I asked where the chicken salad was, they gladly gave me a tiny condiment cup with another dollop. When I asked for more, he put another dollop on the sandwich, which was then just enough for the tiny piece of bread they serve it on which seems to be about the size of a half sandwich, yet I paid over $7 for this "whole" sandwich. Not in the mood for a teaspoon of chicken salad, I ordered the steak ciabatta? sandwich at the Exeter location, which comes with a scant amount of horseradish type sauce on one side of the bread. The bread was less than the size of a deck of cards...for a minute I thought I got the wrong thing or got the "butt end of the loaf." In between the bread was an odd shaped solid hunk of roast beef (not slices, we're talking hope you brought the denture glue). Maybe that was the end left over when they couldn't slice anymore or risk cutting off a finger? The meat was the size and shape of a short, fat middle finger, and a slice of dried out, tasteless cheddar that was bigger than the bread itself. It was the most dry, tasteless sandwich. If I didn't have a drink I would have choked to death. I had baked potato soup (or rather two spoonfuls) before I said "neh neh"...it was luke warm, gelatinous, tasted like you were eating solidified fat globules...it sounds gross but this looked and tasted gross. Thin that stuff out with some milk, and heat it up!!! My friend had tortellini with chicken which looked like they dumped it out of a chef boy r dee can...the chicken was slimy and pinkish like that processed Oscar Meyer lunch meat...just the appearance made me gag. We paid over $20 for this quick "light" dinner. Years ago you could enjoy decent soup and sandwiches or salad here, but now it seems like they are taking low quality deli food and charging you $8-10 for it. I will not return unless it's to buy a loaf of bread or a bagel...and even when you buy a bagel they won't butter it for you unless you beg them. By the time I take a toasted bagel to work and try to smear a frozen pat of butter on it, I might as well go to McDonalds...less maintenance, better tasting junk. read more
