  It's a Panera. Good food. Well-priced. Lots of space and seating to setup shop and work / study / read.

  I spent $15 on a bread bowl of soup, half of a sandwich and a drink. The intention was simple: enjoy the quiet atmosphere while reading some research papers for a university class.
  
  I was utterly disgusted by the cooks literally screaming at each other across the shop as they tried to carry on juvenile conversation while "working".
  
  They then tried to get in their closing cleaning 45 minutes before the posted closing time. This consisted of loudly throwing kitchen utensils into the stainless steel sinks and *slamming* every heavy object they had on hand. Because, you know, slamming things more loudly indicates "harder working".
  
  I tried to justify the outrageous price for the food with the cozy atmosphere and relaxed setting. The seats were visibly stained, tables were dirty, and employees were, for lack of a better word, assholes.
  
  Next time I'll make a nice sandwich at home for a fraction of the cost and light a candle for 'atmosphere'. This place is just a joke. Waste neither your time nor your sanity.
