My Experience at Panera Bread

Below is the transcript of my recent experience at Panera Bread. This resulted in getting a coupon for $6 to use at my next visit at Panera:

Topic: My experience at Panera Bread

Comments:

I frequent this Panera quite a bit for breakfast, to get the asiago cheese bagel and sundried tomato cream cheese - very good. I've recently expanded to lunch. I can't be more disappointed with the sandwiches. Where is the meat? Today I had the chicken ceaser sandwich and there was more tomato and lettuce than meat. I had two bites into my half sandwich with no meat. I would have complained at the store but I got it to go and was back at my desk with a meeting in front of me so I couldn't leave.

The other time I got a chicken salad sandwich and it was the same thing- hardly any meat. I ate at the store so I asked for more. If I wantedthe bread and fixings to dominate my sandwich I'd go to Subway. Tomato and lettuce should not look like the main ingredient in a sandwich, unless it's a BLT. I was very disappointed with this and will definitely think twice about getting another Panera sandwich. They are very good, but the meat portions are very poor.

Thanks,
