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.

Whew! Lord! Where do I start? There's not a single bad thing in the place. I haven't tried…read moreeverything on the menu but I'mma reckon a guess, based on the fair amount of things I have tried and by the EXTREME FRESH AND PHENOMENAL QUALITY that i'm right. The chicken pot pie is unlike ANY I've ever tried before, its got a unique taste that I absolutely love. It's not a strong overpowering taste, and it's just the right amount of salt (I think those Marie Calendars pot pies are WAY too salty). Even when the pot pies are frozen they're not overly dry like a store frozen pot pie. You'll be ruined forever, and broke, ya'll no joke. When I was younger, there was a pie shop that made strawberry pies with a sugar glaze, not the gel glaze that's common these days. I've looked forever for a place that didn't make a strawberry pie with that nasty overpowering gel glaze. OMG. I don't know what kind of glaze they use in it. It could be a gel glaze but they just use less of it. I don't know. Maybe it's a different kind of gel? But this strawberry pie is the ONLY kind I can eat. For reals. I literally hate every other kind I've had so far, besides the ones I had when I was young. I also pride myself on making a mean apple pie. My grandma is an old school woman and when I was young, reeally little, she taught me how to make one without measuring spoons or cups or anything. I've had a lot of people tell me I make the best apple pie they've ever tasted. Well, I've been beat. And I do not admit defeat often. I give credit where its due, but not often do I admit being beaten. Admittedly, the best apple pie I've ever had. I've also never really had a pecan pie I've liked but when I heard this amazing lady threw chocolate chips in one I got a few of her pie bites and oh my goodness. That's my favorite so far. I cannot wait to try a good portion of the rest of her flavors. I also think its admirable and amazing that she carries blackberry pie, a berry native to my father's home state. The pie was also good!

I'm being generous giving three stars. I purchased a small banana cream pie (got a coconut cream…read morepie) and a full sized cherry pie for a total of $50 minus a few pennies. I was excited to try "from scratch " baked goods. The crusts were average, did have a nice texture but did not taste homemade. The top crust of the cherry pie was a little undercooked. There was a lot of filler in the cherry pie, hence less cherries. The cherries did have a nice texture and tart flavor. High crust to filling ratio. The coconut pie was very sweet and had a nice consistency, though it was not what is ordered. I did not want to drive back to the bakery so sharing the pie with others. For the price, the pies were subpar and did not have a homemade flavor.

The store is clean and easy to navigate with lots s of helpful signage and staff who appear to be…read moreinterested in helping you spend money getting stuff you want and need. Except for the deli. The deli staff don't care why you're there. They don't acknowledge customers even when they make eye contact with you. They sure don't offer assistance. They focus on moving merchandise around behind behind the counter mostly. Two other customers wandered up while I was waiting and they got the same treatment. So, thumbs down on the deli....took an almost 5 rating down to a 3 because I went to the store for deli meats and salads. Probably won't bother going back since it's a bit out of the way for me.

Pharmacy & Store app/website both are terrible here. The store app never let's us sign in, hell…read morethat was DOA from day one here. I took computers courses & Ive been using computers since the mid 80s and never got their store app to work even once. Reinstalled it several times on different phones, Ive never had issues like this store has, never in my life. They finally ditched their Pharmacy app because it was so horrible but their websites just as bad, makes you sign in constantly, you have to get a push notification every single sign-in, even 10 seconds later. No banks or other pharmacy apps do this dumb chit. Terrible app developers here, people say Meijers should fire them immediately. I tend to agree. After all, this is a pharmacy for goodness sakes, people should never have to drive 45 miles to their drug store each month with the hope they have their med in stock then drive back home only to return again the following day because they dont have it. Especially after signing forms stating you only buy from this pharmacy monthly & no other? Gas is $4.60 a gallon!! Geez! Only pharmacy Ive heard of without auto refills too fyi. Clearly they dont care about their customers needs at all here. Very inconvenient place to get scripts. CVS just cost too much now but man how I miss small pharmacies that ordered any other brand med at our request because they understand customer needs. If you suffer from side effects & need another brand all I had to do was ask for a different brand that used different fillers in their pills. All about making more millionaires now days sadly!
