It came to around $10 (noodles, potstickers, and extra side of yum yum) and was ready in about 10 minutes. The woman asked which car was mine and said she would wave when my order was ready so i didn't freeze. The container of noodles was heavy. There were so many noodles and I thought they were pretty tasty. I have a ton leftover. There were 3 potstickers and they were good also. I would come back for sure.

It's pretty noticeable from the big street especially since the truck color is orange. The food is extremely good. We had the shrimp and steak hibachi, dumplings and fried rice. The noodle seasoning is seriously good! The portion is good and the price is definitely not expensive. Will stop by here again if we are in town.

Ahhh, Pease's...the bane of every parent who had a child at Butler Elementary School right around…read morethe corner, and the most pleasurable part of going to school for said students, Pease's is a Springfield institution. Penny candies are displayed throughout the store, with little bags for gathering your selections. Many hard to find and obscure candies available by the piece - it's a great way to blow your allowance if you are 7 and a great way to blow your breakfast change from D&J if you are an adult. The real draw for most people (nostalgia trips notwithstanding) are the handmade chocolates. Pease's has been making chocolates in Springfield since the 1930's and is still family owned. You won't find chile infused chocolates here, but you will find great old fashioned candies, packaged by the sweetest ladies you ever met, it really is a wonderful place to pick up a gift or a little something for yourself.

I would hop on my bright orange Schwinn with the banana seat and ride like the wind to Peases. I would get a small brown paper bag and fill it with penny candies. Everyone at Peases is as sweet as they can be. My Grandmother gets each of us a large cream filled chocolate egg with our name on it every Easter from Peases. Now that my sister, mom and I live in AZ those eggs get flown out every year! It is a family tradition. If you have never been to Peases go you wont be disappointed, well unless your looking for a hamburger then you will be. : )

A diamond in the rough and a great place for delicious treats…read more We were visiting Lincoln's hometown of Springfield, Ill and wanted to get a snack. We found this place online. It is a little south of the city and west of the interstate but it is absolutely worth the detour. It is a rustic place called the Apple barn and parking is right in front. Their website gives a lot more information about it being more than just the main shop that is in the barn. They began as a family apple orchard and expanded over the years into a collection of attractions including two restaurants, a general store, a creamery, a winery, a candy factory, and a Christmas shop, all centered around the original barn built in 1910. We only visited the barn with the bakery goodies and the very friendly staff who helped us get some delicious snacks for the trip back to the hotel. It was great! Even if you don't plan to buy anything, it's worth taking some time to visit to get a snack for your trip or, if you are going to walk around the site, for the extra visit. We found it to be one of the more enjoyable stops to the area capping off a great visit to the Springfield, Ill area.
