TRAYS at Panera Bread

Why doesn't Panera Bread offer you a tray to carry your food to the table?
It's a real pain in the neck bringing food to the table at Panera Bread, especially if you've got more than one person with you.
If you've been to Panera Bread, you know the routine. You order at the front counter, and they immediately hand you your cups and any pastries you may have ordered. Next, you walk to the back to fill your cups and pick up your food. If the restaurant is busy, you're tempted to fill the cup, and put it down on a table, but there's a chance somebody will throw it out, so you carry it with you, along with your pastries. Now you've got a drink in one hand and the pastries in the other, so you'll have to somehow fit the pastries on the plate and try to hold the everything as you look for a table. Not fun.
Perhaps they consider the oversized plate a tray. That's not a tray. It barely holds one person's meal and you can't even fit your drink on it.
If you've come with a group, it's still a pain in the neck. This time you hand the drinks to one person and have them put them at a table, while you pick up the food. However, it's a real juggling act trying to carry more than one plate at a time.
Wouldn't it be easier if Panera offered you a tray to carry a few things at once?
Even McDonalds offers you a tray and their food is easy a lot easier to carry than a bowl of soup and a salad.
