A French bistro in the Midwest is in expansion mode, with one planning to open in the local area.
According to an article from the Peoria Journal Star, Bread & Vine is making plans to expand to Boston, with more locations also on the way to Illinois and Florida. The article mentions that new restaurants will debut in Geneva, IL, and Tampa, FL this fall, with a Boston outlet "soon to follow," though no address has been given as of yet. Once it does open, expect a fast-casual restaurant that offers comfort food with international influences, with a focus on French fare.
Bread & Vine's flagship location is in Galena, IL, serving such options as smoked salmon croissants, Croque Monsieur, Cubanos, quiche lorraine, ham and cheese croquettes, cheese and charcuterie boards, Roman-style pizza, mussels, gyros, tacos, and more.
The website for Bread & Vine is at https://breadandvinerestaurants.com/
