    Even in the pouring rain the food is so worth it.
    Lisa W.

    This place is awesome! They have great hot dogs in many different ways. We had the corn dog, the nacho cheese dog, the Spanish dog, onion petals, and fried pickles. Everything was hot and crispy as they are supposed to. I will definitely come back. Ohhhh yeah the prices are awesome too! The staff was great and very pleasant. Come check it out. Yummmy!

    This place is one of my fondest memories of Peru, Indiana and I'm so happy to see that the service and food have remained the same after 30 years!

    Spanish cheese dog, one of a kind.... will drive 1000 miles for it

    Love it, only thing I don't like is that they're closed during the winter. Everybody knows, everybody goes. Spanish sauce is perfection.

    My husband and I were ready for a quick little breakfast and a spot of coffee, so we headed into…read morearoma. My husband ordered plain ol' coffee, so I caved and did the same. I can't tell you if it was good---I never can tell if regular coffee is good by coffee-lover standards. It was just OK to me. We shared an apple fritter and a cream-filled donut. The fritter was light and airy, which was a nice change from the dense, heavy fritters I've grown accustomed to. The filled donut was adequate. White fluff-filled donuts are my go-to, but the cream didn't quite strike the right chord with me. Whatever it was I didn't like about it, that's what my husband raved about! This review suddenly doesn't feel very helpful. If you want a hometown coffee shop with cute decor, decent coffee, and assorted baked goods, this fits the bill! The staff was friendly and helpful, as well. That means a lot! Seating is limited---maybe 20-25 seats in all---so just be prepared.

    I had stayed away for quite awhile after a few incidents where I was served regular instead of…read moredecaf. It still feels like playing roulette everywhere I go, so I prefer to make my own at home. I just cannot do caffeine. I mostly go to shops like this to feel like a human out doing something. The coffee tastes good, but 'm docking a star because even as I type this after leaving, I can feel the not fun effects of caffeine. It can be hit or miss with consistency of what constitutes a large and how milky your drink is, the prices seem to vary from visit to visit, and I often don't recognize the employees. High turnover? There is no public restroom which can be an issue whilst consuming beverages. Aroma also charges a fee if you pay with plastic, so I try to carry cash. I recall being charged for a cup of ice for my herbal tea in the past. Sometimes the tables aren't so clean and the baked goods case can have flies in it. It's looked better this summer. The wooden chairs can be wobbly. Overall it has decent atmosphere. It smells good like caramel when you walk in. There are two metal tables with cafe chairs as well as a bench outside, weather permitting. Rat Pack & classical outside. When music is on inside it's a different genre. The hours can be funky especially in winter or even be unexpectedly closed, but they are never open past 5 PM. Peru rolls the sidewalks up pretty early. I do like that they offer plant milk and have decaf without a weird lecture like the place around the corner... They usually have soy and almond. No coconut, but I usually go with soy lately anyway. Raw sugar, stevia for Lydia, and at least one decaffeinated tea. The baristas I've had recently were pretty pleasant. They have an array of baked goods including bagels and some other food and drink things in a refrigerated case. I've not ever tried the food myself though it looks good. I'm assuming it's local artwork which I've seen for sale on the walls along with handmade jewelry, mugs. They have a sandwich board for a donation program where you can buy a coffee for someone in need. Aroma has loyalty punch cards as well. You can enter the bakery next door through an adjoining door. Walking past I saw the case next door had cupcakes and heard a cake order being taken. So, while Aroma has flaws and I've been to better in other towns, the prices are pretty reasonable for this century and the atmosphere is alright. Cozy and on the Bohemian side. I don't go running there with excitement, but it's alright to sit and chat, especially when it's not crowded, which it often isn't. I like the downtown location.

    I have dined in a few times since my previous review. The inside of this Burger King is modern &…read morepretty comfortable. Even though I long for the old days where trays could easily be dumped into trashcans, etc. I do like it here. Service varies. On one occasion I wasn't acknowledged at all. Other times I've received excellent and immediate service whether they were slow or busy. Sometimes food comes out fast. Sometimes it's slower but not excruciatingly so. There are times the tables, awkward trashcans, and drink station could use a little more attention being wiped down, but this restaurant is clean overall. I like the booths along the large windows. The other diners have been pleasant. It's not a rowdy or demanding crowd from my experience. There seem to be some regulars. Of all the fast food places available, I like Burger King the best. One reason why I like Burger King is that they have the Impossible Whopper. Even though it's been overdone or sloppy at times and never resembles a stock photo, it is something I can eat and veganize. Fry portions seem smaller than I remember from days of old and prices have definitely gone up quite a bit. It's about $10 for the Impossible with a medium fry and close to $12 for the large Impossible combo. There is a charge for water if you're not into consuming the fountain drinks. The regular cheeseburger patty isn't big enough to fit the bun and have also increased in price. You gotta love the signature sesame seed bun though. Despite minor flaws, this is a quiet place where I enjoy sitting once in a while even though I normally don't eat fast food. The overhead music is usually decent as well with a lot of 80s tunes.

    This was my first time using the app and was my first visit to this Subway location. You have to…read moremaneuver your way through a cluttered and busy truck stop called JJ's Travel Plaza to get to the rather small Subway. The first thing I saw was a dirty vent near the ceiling above the fountain drink station. Mold? It was like being in a short hallway. Tight space. They have small tables for two along the wall where you stand in line. There were more tables which seat two people around the corner. I saw two diners sitting at one away from the line. The tables didn't look clean. I was going to eat at a table outside of the travel plaza, but it was hot and too loud out there. A truck stop employee was running a power washer. This truck stop also houses a rather dirty McDonald's restaurant. Two people were ahead of us ordering sandwiches. I stayed at the register end closer to the entrance. After a few minutes, we were told they could help us "down here," and I announced I was picking up. One of the two women working asked my name, so I gave my last name. I was asked to verify my first name as well, as if there was a crowd of people with my last name waiting for sandwiches. (There was no one else there besides the people already mentioned.) I discovered that the brown bag sitting atop what I believe was a toaster or small oven was my sandwich, so it was ready before I arrived. The sandwich artist did put a decent amount of veggies on it as requested. It was just overloaded with mustard and messy, and there was no napkin in the bag. I didn't see that until I was already eating in the car. I wouldn't go out of my way to this Subway to dine in since it's small and the cleanliness is a little questionable. It's also at a busy intersection on highway 31 full of trucks, busses, cars, and road construction. The staff weren't overly friendly but okay. Overall, it was quick and a better experience than the Subway on Broadway in Peru, although I believe they both have the same rude district manager. At least I finally figured out how to use my digital gift cards by using the app, as the staff on Broadway never could scan them. I was also able to join rewards on the app. I really only go to Subway because they have avocado. I just wish you could sub the cheese with it. (I have at other times and locations.) I had to pay an upcharge. Understandable, but I leave the cheese off. Even with a coupon, this was over $10 for a footlong. If they had more veggies for their wraps, I'd prefer to go to the family owned cafe across from the Subway restaurant on Broadway in Peru.
