Traveling home from vacation and needed a bite to eat that was healthy after indulging during our trip. We stopped in at Panera Bread in Marion, IL for the new Thai chicken soup and Citrus Asian crunch salad. Initially the salad was not to my liking because it had a lot of dressing for my taste. I asked for a remake and was greeted with warm hospitality and great service. They remade my salad with the dressing and teriyaki on the side. It was delicious and all the fresh flavors popped w/ less dressing to hide them. The soup was delicious! I’m a wimp when it comes to spice and this had a little heat, but so delicious ! I was also pleasantly surprised by the bathroom being nicely stocked for the ladies. The employee that took our order was very friendly and helpful in describing the food and possible allergens. Impressed with the staff, service and food!!
Pretty busy Panera for a small area, food was quickly ready, however my mom's salad was missing grilled chicken and dressing. But otherwise it was all hot, tasty, and the place was clean. The cashier girl was so sweet and bubbly too, very talkative!
Quick service and the food was tasty!
Was in Marion Illinois for a three-day conference, ate at Panera twice, once lunch, once supper. For lunch I had the Baja warm bowl, with chicken. If you like Frufru, I think you'll enjoy it, I probably won't order it again, it was okay. I had a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup for supper, un-like Panera in Evansville, Indiana, Marion filled up the bowl, Evansville you get about a half a bowl. Marion was good, friendly, and clean, good place to eat.
We stopped here for a quick lunch while driving through the interstate. Neat and clean place. We ordered the egg and cheese soufflé, which was good. But the bagel was not that good. It was hard and dry.
