[[HIGHLIGHT]]Outdoor seating is great at this restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only negative comment is they don't put on the table that you should come inside before being seated. It took a while for them to acknowledge me since there's no signage. Once we got past that everything is great The Cobb salad with chicken is really good with the homemade bacon vinaigrette dressing and the sweet corn & crab chowder is really good. It has just a slight kick to it as far as taste but really just pops in your mouth is really delicious. Cobb salad has lots of toppings lots of chicken and a very false salad. Fresh ingredients, fresh eggs avocado slices might be a nice touch to it. Fresh brewed iced tea was spot on and Service was absolutely wonderful out on the sidewalk, enjoying the sunshine and a nice warm breeze. read more

Food tasted good. Desert tasted amazing would recommend this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place was really fancy and clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

On the border of 2 and 3 starts, rounding down because it was especially underwhelming given the reputation. I suppose this is why the Midwest has the culinary reputation it does... This being a soup-salad-sandwich place, I had a half-sandwich with soup. The famous crab-corn chowder was just okay--I didn't really taste any crab in the broth, just some strands of loose imitation crab. I found it thicker than a usual bisque sort of soup: although that's reasonable by clam chowder standards, this broth didn't quite taste like anything. I also found the sandwich nondescript--the hard-boiled egg was nice, but the ham, cheese, and pita all seemed premade, and their combination didn't seem to add anything. read more

We were looking around for a nice place for lunch when we found this location on Yelp with good reviews. It is a small locally owned business where they make all their own food for their menu. For drinks I ordered an expresso coffee and my wife got a Hot Chocolate. Then I chose a Turkey Sandwich with a cup of Potato Soup. My wife just ordered a large bowl of Potato Soup. Everything was delicious. We had the nicest little waitress and her service was exceptional. If you're looking for a nice lunch try this place. You won't go wrong. read more

Ate lunch at Pea-fections on a Friday. It was pretty full but they had one table open. My wife had the tomato basil soup and half turkey sandwich combo. She said it was good. I had the fruit salad with their original chicken salad. It was huge. No way I could eat it all. The chicken salad is different than what I've had anywhere else. The chicken is very finely cut or ground. Has a good flavor. My only complaint is that the dish it comes in is a shallow bowl which makes it hard to cut the fruit. Service was good. It's a place I'd try again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]What a sweet place to eat! It has all the delicate, small-town charm you would expect from a place called Pea-fections.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The speed of the service blew my mind as well as the Hallmark-like warmth I received at the door and at the table. The food was delicious and definitely won't break the bank. Glad I stopped here on my visit! read more

They were open on the Saturday we were in town (check: sometimes they are open outside of posted times). The food was fantastic. Save room for dessert, you will want a dessert. Our waitress was great and very helpful in getting us to exactly what we were wanting. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Make sure to take the time to soak in the restaurant, because it is very clean and in inviting to enjoy a meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would suggest the 1/2 and 1/2. Great deal. read more

The crab chowder soup is very good and I recommend the crab salad sandwich. My Mother enjoyed the broccoli cheese soup. read more

If you're coming to Vincennes, you simply must come here. This is the cutest little cafe in the downtown area. The restaurant feels so homey and comfortable, and the people who work here are friendly and helpful. Highly recommend the pitas and soup. I ordered the bbq bacon chicken cheddar pita with broccoli cheddar soup. The pita is served warm and soft, and the ingredients are fresh. The soup is hot and very obviously homemade, with real cheese in it. For dessert I got the red velvet suit and tie cake. It's chocolatey and cheesecakey and wonderful. I wish I had a good reason to come back here so I could try some of the other desserts, and sandwiches too because they all looked incredible. read more

Got there just before 2, expecting to eat from a "limited menu" but we were seated and able to choose from the whole menu. Many things looked delicious but we went with two sandwiches/sides and shared them between us. Waitress was very friendly. Really wanted to try a homemade dessert but we were just too full. Very reasonably priced, good size portions. read more

Great place for a light lunch. Soups, sandwiches, salads, and dessert is a MUST. Service is always great, and the owner is usually around making sure everything is up to her standards. Becky is AMAZING, and I'm always happy to support her restaurant. My personal favorite is the chicken salad and the sweet corn and crab chowder. Tough to beat! Pea-factions is definitely an asset to downtown Vincennes. read more

We walked in for lunch on a casual adventure day. There were coolers filled with cakes and cheesecake to the immediate right, and it all looked incredible. Rachelle and I both got soup and sandwiches. Her meal was the "Half n Half " combo: signature chicken salad on a croissant and tomato/basil soup. I got the tuna salad on a croissant with Pea's famous broccoli cheddar soup (been making it "since day 1"). It was all delicious, and surprisingly filling. Decor felt a little 90s but not on purpose, however it's a fun place that knows their craft and does it really well. We'll be back! read more

Do you love dessert? This is your spot. There's photos of their desserts all along the walls and they are fabulousss. Tuxedo Cake (chocolate and vanilla layers), The Chocolate Bar (warm brownie with vanilla ice cream scoop, chocolate drizzle and a cut-out, chocolate topping), Strawberry Cake (layers of strawberry and vanilla), Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake, and so much more. Oh, and they also have great lunch and dinner menus (but I had to start with the dessert). There's wraps, pita melts, sandwiches, creamy soups galore, and salads (leafy or pasta). The chicken pita sandwich came with a creamy dressing, cheese, tomatoes and lettuce. I also got a side of crab, corn soup. Both were fresh and yummy. I like that the food is simple but done well. The Caesar wrap looked delicious as well, as did the broccoli cheddar soup. Service is nice and quick, they have specials of the day, and they do a good job of hosting larger groups. read more

Throughly enjoyed lunch here. Lots of selections on the menu that sounded great! The desserts looked wonderful, but I can't recommend one. Service was prompt and courteous. If ever in this area again, I look forward to trying one of those delicious looking desserts! read more

There overall food is average. Nothing excites me or makes me want to come back except...the coconut cheesecake. That is worthy of 5 stars itself. The bakery dept is probably fantastic based on that. However they no longer sell the coconut cheesecake by the slice anymore. Which in turn has led me to never come back. read more

Had the clam chowder with sweet corn and a half egg salad sandwich on a baguette. Filled me up and was so delicious for lunch. I will be back! read more

I think of this place as one of those cafes that's perfect for a group of women. Not sure what makes it more for women than men, and men can certainly find plenty to like - that's just the vibe- "ladies who lunch." We stopped here after wedding dress shopping at Illusions. We all got soups and salads/sandwiches. Tomato basil soup was great and my sandwich was as expected. They have a large dessert menu too, although I personally didn't care for the peppermint raspberry cheesecake we got - I got outvoted by my group so I knew I wouldn't exactly love the combo. The pluses are also that the decor is cute and quaint, and the place was beautifully decorated for Christmas. A minus is that the waitress called my short haired friend a "gentleman" and never corrected herself. My friend is petite and feminine so I'm positive that the waitress just saw the back of her head and instantly realized her mistake, so it was just funny and odd that she didn't correct herself. But that's not really here nor there. Great lunch spot! read more

Love, love, love this place! You have to get the Italian beef sandwich with the corn chowder. And for desert nothing is better than uncle Roy's bread pudding. Have come here for a couple years now and love it every time. Awesome service never a complaint. read more

Great place for lunch. I haven't had a sandwich I didn't like from there. The cheesecakes are the best around!!!

Excellent food, service and atmosphere! Will definitely return. Love the historic site.

Delicious food and amazing service! This is my go-to lunch spot when I have family or friends in from out of town.

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. served quickly on homemade white bread. A little bit sour, but good flavor. Also had a bowl of broccoli cheese soup. Surprised by the size of the bowl, impressively large. A decent soup. But, the sausage gumbo missed. Seems the cajun flavors of the mighty Mississip never made it upstream to its Wabash tributary. Rather than a thick, spicy rice-filled gumbo, the soup served was watery with some slivers of celery and sausage. Needs strength. However, the Red, White, and Bleu Italian roast beef sandwich was a hit. Sturdy bun, tasty beef, nice veggies. Terrific sandwich. 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. Got to fix the gumbo. read more

Sweet corn and crab chowder...yum. Truly a blessing for this town to have this place. The desserts....I've never had a bad dessert from this place. Always leave feeling full and the service is always top notch. If you're ever passing by...and feeling a soup and sandwich...try it. It's a must. Chocolate bar ala mode...seriously delicious! read more

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! read more

Took my 85 year old Dad and family here for a Birthday lunch after touring the Red Skelton museum. We called ahead and reserved a table and they were ready when we arrived. Both the food and the service were exceptional and exceeded our expectations. Our server was attentive and friendly. We enjoyed salads, soup, sandwiches, and desert and all were delicious. Cannot wait to go back! read more

My wife asked me if I wanted to try their Italian Beef Sandwiches. She brought one home, and it was huge!!!. Loaded with juicy, tender roast beef, that's so juicy you don't even need to use the au jus, which is also excellent. Its by far the best sandwich I've had in a very long time. I grew up 60 miles from Philadelphia, which is famous for their Italuan Beef Sandwiches, and I have to say, this was on par or better than any I've had in the Philadelphia area. Best sandwich by far in Vincennes. They're only open until 5 PM, so if you want some in the evening, get a few extra for later. I HIGHLY recommend Pea-fections. read more

We absolutely love it! Great staff. Very polite. Salads are absolutely the best! We have never had bad service! They definitely know how to run a business. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Bill's chili is amazing! read more

We were thrilled with our experience! The staff is warm and friendly, the food was super fresh and tasty, and we will be back soon! My husband and I drove down to Vincennes from Indy to try Pea-Fections, and we will be raving about this restaurant to others as a perfect date getaway! read more

A decent place to eat for lunch/brunch. But, almost every item has something sweet in it. Where is the savory. I get a French Dip sandwich and the want to put caramelized goo on it. Can't even get s dude of horseradish in this joint. The crab bisque has some actual lump in it, but, the ruin the soul of the soup with cardamom, and cinnamon. Get some savory going. Not everything needs sweet added to it. On top of that; food is just kind of bland, and, don't ever go after two. It's just a shortened menu to get rid of their leftovers from lunch. read more

Delicious desserts and soups! Always friendly staff and smiling faces. I highly recommend.

Super great quality food. Quant, great location and atmosphere. Best chocolate dessert ever. Well done!

delicious, but they seem a bit pretentious when i walk in in my adam sandler mom clothes. the world is not my fashion show. i have 2 kids and i just wanna grab my food. other than that tho, very good food and desserts lol read more

In town for work and turned to Yelp to help me find a local restaurant with great reviews. I had a chicken salad sandwich on a croissant with broccoli cheddar soup. Both were okay, but on the bland side. Decided to try a dessert since those were also highly rated. I had the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. It had a decent flavor, but very sweet for a cheesecake with the consistency of a jello cheesecake box mix. Overall, the food was a bit underwhelming, perhaps my expectations were too high after reading the reviews. read more
