Panera Bread - Marion

Traveling home from vacation and needed a bite to eat, which was healthy after pampering during our trip. We stayed at Panera Bread in Marion, IL for the new Thai chicken soup and Citrus Asian Cunch Salat. Originally, the salad was not for my pleasure because he had a lot of dressing for my taste. I asked for a remake and was greeted with warm hospitality and great service. You made my salad with the dressing and Teriyaki on the side. It was delicious and all fresh flavors poped w/ less dressing to hide them. The soup was delicious! I'm an eyelash when it comes to spices and that had a little heat, but so delicious! I was also pleasantly surprised that the bathroom was nice for the ladies in stock. The employee who took our order was very friendly and helpful to describe the food and possible allergens. Impressed with staff, service and food!!

I don't think we've ever messed up our order here and that's rare with fast food. Everything is always right and very fresh and delicious.

Was in Marion Illinois for a three-day conference, eaten twice in Panera, once lunch, once dinner. For lunch I had the Baja warm bowl with chicken. If you like Frufru, you will enjoy it, I will probably not order it again, it was okay. I had a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup for dinner, unlike Panera in Evansville, Indiana, Marion filled the bowl, Evansville you get about half a bowl. Marion was good, friendly and clean, good place to eat.

I'm going here for the most days. I can have a drink every 2 hours with a subscription for under $14 a month. No extra tax charged!

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!
