This is such a wonderful place among a place full of pizzerias and burgers. You just park on the main street and walk right in. They have daily special soups and the desserts look delicious. I enjoyed this place with the friendly staff and quick service. Definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting town. Try the sweet corn & crab chowder!
Review Source:Ate here today for the first time with my husband and a friend. Â We all liked it a lot. Â Service was GREAT, very attentive. Â When we asked for recommendations the waiter spent a lot of time explaining the various menu items and highlighting things. Â We all liked our soups, sandwiches and salads, I especially liked the crab & corn chowder. Â We will definitely be back!
Review Source:Really, 2.5 stars. Â Stopped here for lunch on our way through town. Â It's clearly the place to go in town, and was packed, serving soups, sandwiches and salads. Our sandwiches were ok, and seemed kinda pricey for rural Indiana. Â My triple decker club was ok, for about $8.50 with a cup of broccoli cheese soup. The b-c soup is very good. Sweetie's french dip was better, also for $9 or so, with a watery potato soup. Â Locals clearly enjoy this place, and I don't want to knock that. But I don't think we'd go out of our way to go here again.
Review Source:Word of mouth and yelp reviews recommended this establishment to me. The name makes no sense to me, but the food does. First, nice location in downtown Vincennes. A good place to go if you're visiting the nearby George Rogers Clark memorial. Pea does a very brisk lunch business, but the wait is expedited through their display of baking wares and ample seating space for waiting.
I had the pesto sandwich special. Â served quickly on homemade white bread. Â A little bit sour, but good flavor. Â Also had a bowl of broccoli cheese soup. Â Surprised by the size of the bowl, impressively large. Â A decent soup. Â But, the sausage gumbo missed. Â Seems the cajun flavors of the mighty Mississip never made it upstream to its Wabash tributary. Â Rather than a thick, spicy rice-filled gumbo, the soup served was watery with some slivers of celery and sausage. Â Needs strength. However, the Red, White, and Bleu Italian roast beef sandwich was a hit. Sturdy bun, tasty beef, nice veggies. Â Terrific sandwich. Â The highlight was the carrot cake for dessert; Sweet and moist, everything one would expect from a shop that hangs its reputation on its baked goods. Prompt courteous service, clean comfortable dining space, good price. Â Got to fix the gumbo.
THE place to have lunch in Vincennes. Â Just make sure you get there before the rush because the seats go quickly. Â Fortunately the service is brisk and the food comes quickly if you're not having a hot sandwich. Â On my most recent visit I had the chicken and sausage gumbo and a classic chicken salad sandwich on croissant.
The gumbo, while not a traditional gumbo, was a nice mix of flavors and not too salty. Â It stands very well on its own. Â The chicken salad also was excellent and the croissant super fresh. Â I would actually recommend the california chicken salad which I had on a previous visit. Â It is chunkier and adds raisins and cashews. Â They have many other sandwiches on their menu and a dazzling array of pies and pastries. Â Prices are reasonable for home made goodness. Â You will not go wrong here.
I drove through VIncennes going to St. Louis, and we just quickly typed in "food" to Google and found good reviews for this place. So we followed the GPS, parked on the cute little "first main street of Indiana" and headed in.
The place is located in a cute area. The restaurant itself reminded me a lot of Amish country back near Akron - lots of wood paneling, a bit outdated. It's got that nice small town charm I don't get in restaurants back home. It is really nice inside though - the tables had real cloth napkins for lunch even.
The food was delicious. We both got soup - I got a potato soup and my husband got their broccoli cheddar. Both were excellent and we were really happy with our choice simply because of the soups. They were thinner than I make at home, but I actually really enjoyed it here. Well seasoned and good ingredients.
My husband got a turkey sandwich that was filled with good turkey and delicious cheese as well as onion and an egg - he loved it! We haven't seen a sandwich quite like it ever. And I got a salad with asiago cheese and pecans - which was good. The salad was fresh, but I wasn't too big a fan of the dressing.
The waitress was nice and very attentive. Our food came super fast (great since we had another 4-5 hours by then I think) and hot! We got to finish off with the strawberries and cream cake. It does have nuts on it (my husband looked super sad when we found this out - stupid us for not asking) so I got to eat almost all of it. It was amazing! The cake was moist, the filling was a creamy strawberry, and it came with a very tangy strawberry sauce. Mixed together, I can't explain how sweet and delicious it was. I ate more than I should have because I couldn't stop. And it was SO pretty! Definitely go for the desserts.
Also - everyone in the place was nice. There was a girl worker who even showed me to an extra bathroom ^_^ Thanks!
I'm glad Pea-Fections has such a high rating from fellow Yelpers! I've googled them before and remember people complaining about the wait-staff and how they run their cake decorating supply business upstairs. However, I've never had a bad experience here before.
I know they have several options to choose from when you order here, but to be honest, since I first tried Pea-Fections at the young age of eleven or so, I've always come back for the same meal: portobello sandwich and broccoli soup. Ah, yum. What more can I say? Well, if I had to say something more, it would probably be along the lines of, "first and only meal that made me consider vegetarianism and not mind it so much." I mean, who needs meat when you can have a delicious and well prepared portobello sandwich and some kick-ass soup? No one, that's who.
Come, enjoy the great atmosphere, fast and friendly service, and a great meal.
