Sandwich and wrap choices.
Tig D.

Of the many sandwiches and wraps to choose from, I opted for the classic reuben; instead of the traditional corned beef, I requested turkey with a slice of bacon (it was being cooked when I walked in and I could resist it), sauerkraut, thousand island dressing and creamy melted swiss cheese, toasted on swirled rye bread. Instead of chips, I swapped it for a salad for a $1.50 up-charge. While they have several excellent salad choices, I really like the creatively named, Tangled Up In Blue; it contains greens with dried cranberries, bleu cheese, croutons, and walnut vinaigrette. For dessert, I got an oatmeal raisin cookie. I really enjoyed my lunch, but a few criticisms. First, I am eating something beyond healthy, only to stare at a slew of soda taps as a drink choice. I mean, I'm not looking to chase my deli choices with soy milk, but a nice selection of teas would be nice. Also, a sandwich, small side salad, and cookie cost $12. I can't afford that everyday, but then again, anything healthy is going to cost way more. Lastly, I don't get lunch until noon, so I guess that is late, comparatively. A lot of the salads and desserts were sold out. If certain selections are selling out while others are consistently left over, adjust what types and how many you are making each day to better serve others with the same choices as the early birds received.

If your looking for Healthy this place is a delicious stop. I'm a vegetarian/pescatarian and love coming here for lunch. I usually get the 2 or 3's company plate, which allows you to select 2 or 3 salads or vegetables. My fave is the vegetarian protein salad and the poppy seed broccoli and carrots. The curried quinoa isn't bad and I wish I could try some of the others but I get there a little late and most are gone by then. I'm excited to see another restaurant like this in Evansville. As another person stated, it is similar to Maxine's only better atmosphere and decor.

My new favorite place in Evansville! I was craving something healthy and got stocked up with goodness. I did the Three's Company: a pick-three from their ten salad options. Some of the salads were vegan/some vegetarian/some meat-based. They also had gluten free bread available & several desserts. I couldn't resist buying a couple bags of their house-made granola to take home. If I lived in Evansville, I'd be a regular. Only regret is that they don't have wifi. This could be a great place to work on your laptop otherwise.

Salads have too much oil... But a few are vegan.

Posting as a vegan, the selection could be better. The vegan salads were good but very oily. No vegan baked goods and a plant-based option would be great. Super friendly and accommodating staff.

Nice granola cookie, soft inside and not super sweet!

It is a nice little sandwich and salad place for a quick, simple, and healthy lunch. They have about 10 different salads you can choose, can make it into two salad combo or even three salad combo! The cookies are great as well. Tuesday is $1 cookie special, and they have different daily special as well. Inside siding and outside siding are both available!

It's ok but nowhere near as good as Maxine's! Really miss that place. Salads are sloppy and overpriced.

Best restaurant in East Kentucky! Food is always great, haven't had a bad thing on the menu. Highly…read morerecommend the charcuterie board, mushroom risotto and truffle fries.

We were in town visiting family, and we knew we had to visit F&F. Unfortunately, the day we could…read morecome was on a day where temps were on the cooler side with occasional wind gusts. The only availability was on the patio, so we obliged with the knowledge from the website that there were patio heaters available. To the contrary, the patio heaters were not available, and we were offered blankets and we were still ok with that since we were there and we had a small kiddo with us. At no point, did we complain about our situation. As a matter of fact, we struck up a great conversation with another couple that ventured out to the outdoor patio and laughed with us about braving the elements for some F&F. When the inevitable happened, small kiddo needing to use the bathroom, I covered my seasonal menu special with my napkin to ensure it didn't get cold or rainy mist onto it. However, much to my dismay, the plate was no longer there as it was whisked away since my napkin was on it (understandable, no doubt). When the owner came out to check out the destabilizing weather conditions, he saw us braving the conditions and asked how we were doing. We explained our situation about visiting from out of state, as well as my mishap of protecting my plate from the elements. With a pretty blank stare, I got the following, "aww well you should probably complain to your wife." As she was to blame, presumably. Well, nonetheless, I was not going to order another plate, but we did need to order dessert for the in-laws for whom we were visiting. I did order the cheesecake with the owner after disclosing my napkin blunder. Now, one would think that maybe there would be some sort of sympathy and offer something to help with our situation. NOPE, not at all from the owner! The sympathy did come from the server, tho! If it wasn't for the server, God bless her, it would have been a complete all-around letdown. Aside from the couple we met outside, she was the only bright spot of the dining/lack of dining experience. I get it, and I take all ownership of putting the napkin on my plate; however, there was no empathy whatsoever from the one person who should have it the most when running a service based business. For the record, we did not ask for a free meal or any sort of discount. It was the server who went to bat for us and tried to get something for us. Much to the owner's dissatisfaction, he was only going to budge on giving 50% off the individual plate. Overall, it was a great server who outshined ownership.
