Chief's South by Southwest

Yelp helped me find this place. I was in town for business and of course didn't want to hit up a fast food chain. I went to my handy dandy Yelp app for answers. This place is located just off the north side of the square and was just my kind of place. They do a Cajun style menu here with items ranging from salads with grilled chicken and advacado ranch dressing to enormous burgers. I was being healthy that day and went with the Southwestern Chicken Salad. It was great the chicken was seasoned well and the dressing was just what it needed. Service was spot on and friendly. Next time i'm in town this is the place you'll find me around lunch hours.

We have been several times now and the food has always been great.  Service can be a little slow at times but the staff is very friendly.  I have also used them for a last minute catering job for a meeting and they did an awesome job.

Greencastle, Indiana is a wasteland as far as good food is concerned. Even the local snackbar Marvin's, popular among students and townies alike, is dire. The one exception is Chief's, a small Cajun-style restaurant just off the town square. It might not look like much, but they do know how to make some tasty meals.

I have been to Chief;s many times and have a couple of favorites: the Catfish Submarine is delicious (the banana peppers provide the wow factor); the Big Brentlinger is scrumptious (make sure to have it with their spicy Fillmore Fire Sauce); and BubbaZ Blackened Voodoo Strip Steak has more tastes than any steak I have ever eaten (although sometimes the steak itself is a bit chewy). On the lighter side, the Southwestern Chicken Salad is good and the Veggie Wrap is tasty (but a bit oily). The only weakness of the menu is the sides: both the fries and onion rings are a dime a dozen, while the slaw is fairly tasteless.

Overall, Chief's is a gem in Greencastle. Oddly enough, many students and townies have never visited.
