I have a meeting in Pineville tomorrow and I've been put in charge of finding somewhere for lunch.

Any type of food. Nothing too formal, but not a chain if possible. They prefer to go somewhere in Pineville, but we will go to Alexandria if we have to.

Any suggestions?

There is nothing in Pineville.

Go to Spirits if you just want a atmosphere and drinks and sometimes decent food.

The Cottage is a nice lunch spot.

Verona and Bellinos are both ok Italian places.

Options limited in Pineville. They have a greek place thats actually pretty good:

Jeruselem Mediterranean : Ball Hwy : Pretty good greek/medit grub

Po Boy Express : Military Hwy : Nothing special, but decent poboys



Alexandria:

Word of Mouth : Downtown Alex : Small, locally owned sandwich/wraps/soup/lunch specials

Spirits : Jackson/Texas St :
Sports Bar/Grill : Poboys & Salads are good

Lil Cajun House : Strip Center by Mall... Actually has good fried seafood

1921 Jackson : Coffee Shop w good lunch special/salads




I highly recommend Word of Mouth. Its downtown and only a couple minutes from P'Ville

years ago I use to eat at Lee J's on the levee - 208 Main Street Pineville . They've closed but Southern Creations (new owners) remodeled the bldg and has a great lunch buffet for $10.95. After tax, title, license, and tip it will cost you $15.

located 1 block from the River on Main St. or if coming from Alex take the Jackson Street Ext bridge to P-ville

In Pineville I would go to Pappa Ts or Outlaws

In Alexandria, Cajun Landing, Oriental Wok, Spirits, The Cottage, Sombreros, El Paso, Robbie Gs, Lou and Lauras, Outlaws BBQ, Word of Mouth, Critics Choice, Embers, Wildwood Pizza

I bolded my choices, Embers would be my pick if I was coming in from Pineville. Just hop over bridge and pull in.

Philly cheesesteak or chicken grinder from Critic's Choice. They have two locations, one of which is downtown. Also, Spirits is horrible.

Mikados on Monroe Hwy in Pineville is good for Japanese. I believe Robbie G's on Jackson Ext. is open for lunch if you want seafood. Oriental Wok on Bolton Ave. is good for Chinese. Brocato's on 28 West in Alexandria has a good plate lunch.

My all time favorite is Oriental Wok. I love the tiny spicy chicken and make sure I grab an order any time I'm in town. I have yet to find it's equal in BR. That's just my humble pedestrian opinion though. Your mileage may vary.
