Panera Bread, a popular restaurant chain, has garnered mixed reviews from customers in the Rockford region. While the atmosphere is typical of a Panera, the standout feature is the attentive staff, with one manager, Kia, quickly resolving a mishap with an order.
The menu offers classic Panera items, such as soup in a bread bowl and warm sandwiches. However, some customers have been disappointed with the quality and presentation of the food. A Cibatta Cheesesteak sandwich was described as having very little steak and cheese, while the bread bowl seemed smaller than expected, though the broccoli cheddar soup inside was tasty.
The service has also received varying feedback, with one customer praising the speed of the order, while others found the staff to be unenthusiastic and seemingly annoyed by the presence of customers. The dining area was also noted as being in a state of disarray, not meeting the usual Panera standards.
Despite the mixed reviews, the food is generally considered decent, with a customer enjoying a strawberry salad as a healthier option. The overall consensus is that this Panera location is still finding its footing, but with the potential to improve its service and dining experience.
