Reviews for Spear's | Restaurant & Pie Shop in Wichita, KS
I love the pie selection! Apple, Dutch Apple, Blueberry, Coconut Cream, Cheesecake and many more!
Clean place with a lovely atmosphere. The food was fine, not bad or bland just nothing special or memorable. Granted, they're... famous for their pies and they looked delicious we didn't partake. Everything was cooked properly and to our specifications. Ourwaitress was what really killed the experience and rating. Short attitude and only checked on us once, possibly because we werea younger crowd and this is very easily a senior dominated place (the other two tables in our view she had lively conversationand visited them often). The table across from us wasn't bussed the entire time which I found odd considering they weren't toobusy, maybe 1 party of 8 and a few couples at tables. Overall, its not a bad place to eat, but it isn't a diamond in the roughpeople should try at least once. Read more
Absolutely the best Hot Roast Beef Sandwich I have ever ate. I started eating them about 1976 and never have I had one with the... meat chunks pilled an inch thick. Potatoes in the lower bottom, sandwich on each side cut into with brown gravy smothering itall. ???? yum. And the homemade pies are out of this world. Read more
14 minutes just to get a glass of water. Ordered the country biscuits and gravy. I ordered it with the two sausage links. One... sausage link was great The other one was like a Slim Jim, hard and dry. Girlfriend ordered the same thing except with bacon andordered the bacon crispy and came out barely cooked. After spending 25 minutes waiting for food we were getting ready to leavewhen the food came to the table. Dust all over everything and looks like the ventilation system hadn't been cleaned in years.Service was slow and not once did anybody come by and see how we were doing. Read more
Nice batch of people. We all had a hankering for pie and they were deliciously displayed on the racks when you walk in. Not... wanting to just dive into pie, we ordered entrees, and they were decent enough. But when the pie came around, it was thefunkiest tasting stuff. My lemon meringue, which was 90% meringue reeked of putrid saltiness and gamey meat. Meringueactually means calf foam or slobber, so it just might've been very authentic. My wife, who ordered the chocolate creme, spithers out. She said hers tasted as one would think food falling into a sink full of dirty dishwater would taste like. Mydaughter liked her apple cobbler just fine. We paid for it all and tipped well be because the service was good.. and wasn'ttheir fault about the pie, it's whoever was baking the stuff in the kitchen. Read more
Mixed review. Cute place with an old fashioned vibe. Free pie slice with meal on Thursdays. Chicken fried chicken, western... hamburger and chicken fried steak were good. Mashed potatoes and fries were good, green beans were ok, the cabbage was awful(slightly steamed with no flavoring) and the corn had no flavor. The rolls were good but cold. The coffee was weak but hot.Service was awful. Seriously awful. Our waitress never smiled, was terse and bordered on rude. (Do you have vanilla creamer??Not much?. ) Each interaction with her seemed to inconvenience her. I could almost feel her rolling her eyes. We saw her onceduring our meal - when she delivered the salads 15 minutes after the main dishes were served. She was unable to tell us whichpies were available. (She said it was confusing.) She brought (and left) 3 carafes of coffee (on a small table) as we ordered 3cups of coffee. One cup she brought had a large lipstick print. She was so bad I am not going to write her name in this review.I?ve never had service that was this totally awful. Everyone at our table was irritated by the complete lack of professionalism.

It is always a pleasure coming here for brunch or dropping by to grab some pies for special occasions, events, or celebrations. ... I really enjoy the home styled brunch cooking with the fried chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, corn bread, macaroni andcheese, bread pudding, and all of the different slices of pies you can select from. The staff is very friendly and alwayswelcoming. The larger the group, the longer the wait time. I would recommend keeping your party size 6 or less to avoid thelong wait times. The holidays are coming up and they sell ready to go Thanksgiving meals to accommodate those that prefer notto cook. I?ll be back soon to grab some pies for these holiday feasts too. There?s so many great options for pies too. I?m likea kid in a candy store, but with pies. ???? Read more
