Prairie Soup Company catered a 4 course meal for our event. We had 3 kinds of soup - chicken noodle, tomato basil & Italian Wedding. Salad bar with tons of toppings and homemade dressing. Spicy buffalo chicken, turkey bacon, Italian sub, & ham and cheese paninis. And their amazing delicious chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Everything was amazing! I would highly recommend Prairie Soup Company for all your catering needs!

The foods good they have nice soups chocolate chip cookies are really great the paninis are good I used to go here weekly about 5 years ago when I worked downtown. Then ownership change. I just went here a few times lately (2021)they have new ownership and thats really made a difference. If youre near the bus depot or walking the skywalks this is a worthwhile place to eat.

Great soups and sandwiches here! They also have salads, cookies and muffins. The soup always comes with fresh bread. My favorite is the chicken tortilla soup. But they always have a good variety to choose from. And the chocolate chip cookies fresh from the warmer are ooh-y gooey goodness!

This was my first breakfast pizza--ever, but it wont be my last. A generous slice of pizza at the Cedar Rapids Farmers Market. Delicious. I was in town to see the Grant Wood exhibits, but next time Ill be in town to get a slice of the pizza. Delicious. Nice people, too. Highly recommended.

Oh how I love Prairie Soup Company. It really is the ideal lunch spot, with plenty of soup + sandwich options to make your mouth water no matter what youre in the mood for. PLUS you can add TOPPINGS! My go-to has always been the Chicken Tortilla Soup with cheese, tortilla strips, and green onion added.

Chicken enchilada soup is on Tuesdays and Thursdays and is my favorite hands down. But they have plenty of other good soups and paninis are pretty good too!

The service was solid and there were plenty of great soup and panini options. Ordered a pick 2 half Turkey Bacon panini and reg Cheesy Potato soup and it was delicious! Was really impressed with how good the food was and surprised that such a great gem was tucked away in this office-looking building. Would definitely recommend. 👍🏻

Excellent soup, of course. Also paninis and salads. Deserts from New York cheese cake to muffins, great selection. Convenient location on the downtown skywalk. Nice views of the city. Great spot for lunch.

Review №23

Food is pretty good but its a cluster getting through the line every time. If you order a panini it will take about 15-20 minutes. If you dont like your salad completely drenched in dressing ask for them to put it on the side.

Ate there for the first time today. VERY tasty. You can test any of the soups and they were all great. Small soup and half a panini was more than enough. I will be going back soon!

Review №31

I love their soup, but they cant seem to figure out keeping their online menu updated as to what they are serving that day, and also they had run out of all but two soups when I got there. Oh, well, I do like chicken noodle, but I was hoping for something I dont make at home.

Review №32

Quick food which is tastier than the fast food joints. I went their during the lunch hour with my whole family . We had 4 soups and sanwhiches , some soups were ok and some good. I probably didnt get the best soup of the day. Either way Ill eat here again.

Good food, great staff and service, but some menu items (pannini) can be slow during the lunch rush.I had a half Turkey bacon pannini with a medium bowl of chicken tortilla soup to go. The food was great, the service was excellent.They keep a strong serving pace, so the line moves surprisingly quickly.

I highly recommend the cranberry turkey sandwhich, its VERY good!Atmosphere was pretty quiet when we went, but the staff was attentive and the place overall was kept very clean.

Not a good experience at all. Took over 10 min for a latte which in turn made me miss my bus. I was the only customer. 2nd bad experience and there will not be a 3rd! I will not recommend to anyone and will tell people of my experience.
