Panadero Lounge — Restaurant in England

Warning: My reviews are brutally honest as I'm autistic and I'm picky about my food!

Welcoming and quirky interior without being "weird". At the front we were greeted by a table with some vegan and gluten-free menus which I appreciate as I have a gluten allergy.

I had the Elderflower Cooler to drink. The flavour wasn't very strong and wasn't sweet, but it was improved by adding a sugar packet - which I'd rather do than the drink being too sweet to begin with. The cucumber slices were a nice touch. Plenty of ice, and the glass itself had an interesting pattern which made it easier to hold and resulted in less of a wet hand due to condensation. I'd order it again (if sugar's available!).

To eat I ordered the Gluten-Free Twisted Chicken Club (see photo). The size of plate they served it on made it look a bit underwhelming as there was a lot of empty space, therefore I would suggest a smaller plate; however the portion size itself was good and I didn't feel cheated with lack of food.

The chicken was slightly over cooked which resulted in an over-toasted flavour of the breading, that said it was still enjoyable. The bacon was flavourful and salty (a good thing). It could've done with more of the Edamame Guacamole and Chipotle Mayo as their flavour was masked by the bacon. The cheese was not melted (maybe because it's a sandwich not a burger?). The tomato slice was a nice addition and the Gluten Free bread was good too. I recommend adding some of their ketchup on the side as it helps round the flavours better. I would also order this again.

The prices are more expensive than other local places in this category, however the food and environment is more interesting and I think deserves their price point. When I had a question about the ketchup being gluten-free the server went and checked for me (it is).

The reason I haven't given 5 stars is for the reasons I stated above, but I left happy overall. Will return...

On arrival met some girl staff with dark hair I think Holly looked like she felt she is not at work ,but in council estate street playing with her mates she was really noticing what’s going on ,but not what I need as of customer more like so I won’t touch the menus on another table so she said don’t touch I will bring it to you the new menus place was empty with a manager I’m guessing sitting on the table with a laptop and chilling vibes with some staff coming and sitting with her sometimes my partners burger was raw when came to the table so we sended back received it back in 30 minutes which is a bit off really as I was far away finished my meal . Another waiter who served me i said thank you after she puts something on my table but she juts said nothing back all times in general won’t be back of course and choose Nantwich branch next time as last time they had 150 covers maybe more and queues to get in but still experience was like day and night compare to this place . Good luck being happy little friends group but if you don’t care for customers close the door 🚪 no point . Thanks for extra chips by the way they were also...

Heard good things about this place and decided to visit whilst traveling from London. What can I say but “wow” when first stepping inside, really love the decor and layout here, whoever designed this place shows true craftsmanship! Naturally when you see places like this it uplifts your mood along with the expectations of the food. This is where things go wrong. Ordered their premium “big lounge breakfast” for two and 3 hot drinks including matcha late, late and a baby chino. Drinks came and we were impressed, but when finishing my matcha late noticed that they did not whisk the matcha powder leaving clusters of unmixed matcha, I love my matcha but not this. Now for the breakfasts, asked for one with over easy eggs and got both over easy, toast? Nope soggy floppy bread is what we got. Mushrooms like they came out of the tin, baked beans which were cold, good old frozen sausages and tomatoes which were meh. Its a shame that the food let down the atmosphere. Service was half and half as the lady was amazing but the gentlemen doing food runs seemed to have too much on his plate and forgot...
