Invited To The Table is a definitely one of those places that makes you feel at home. I know there’s mixed reviews of service being slow or food not being great but this brunch spot offers a place for great community and I think that’s there goal from what I can read/tell. We were fortunate enough to walk in Saturday midday and had no wait issues. We were helped with ordering by a lovely newer worker. I got the Bae which was delicious! And my husband got the Chicken & Waffles. He said it was good but wish it would’ve been fried chicken as you’d expect with chicken and waffles (but it did say it came with their house made chicken salad which wasn’t bad). The food isn’t a hardy American brunch so it’s not super filling but it’s a great brunch spot in my opinion for a cute coffee date, small group meeting, or study session. We also got the Invited Signature Latte which was great! Only complaint is that for just two waffles, an iced 16oz coffee, side of eggs, and tip - our total was over $40 which seems steep compared to other brunch places that serve much larger portions for the same price, if not less. They have water stations all around the restaurant that you can help yourself too. Plus plenty of seating options both inside and outside. Surprisingly they were not too busy when we went and we had our food and drink in less than 10mins. Once you get your food you’re not necessarily “waited” on since most of their staff is just behind the counter in the kitchen so they do ask you to clear your own dishes from the table - which is no issue in my eyes at all! Even with that though, the restaurant was well kept and clean. The atmosphere is quaint and homey, and fits the vibe for a smaller town like Pendleton. Would definitely come back for a coffee date!
I had a waffle with avocado and tomatoes and mozzarella cheeses and a balsamic vinaigrette dip, As well as a coffee. the meal was pretty filling, if anything a bit confusing with the use of cherry tomatoes, which are in the sweeter side and make you wish you had ordered one of the sweet waffles. I am not one to complain, I did like it enough to eat half and felt fairly full. When I do come back I’ll make sure and get a sweet waffle. On further inspection, I didn’t ask for skim milk and whole milk was the default, that’s what I was tasting. The service was really good, any and all questions and concerns were directly answered, all in all a very accommodating experience.
If you find yourself in Pendleton, IN, and crave a cozy and consistently phenomenal dining experience, "Invited To The Table" is a must-visit gem that has managed to exceed every expectation. This gem specializes in gourmet waffles, transforming a simple breakfast staple into a culinary art form that I truly haven't been able to get enough of. The star of the menu is undoubtedly the "Croque Dijon Monsieur," a waffle that elegantly balances ham, gruyere, gouda, and shredded parmesan, all brought together with a sublime Dijon dressing (although, if you're feeling a little freaky, a small douse of syrup ROCKS with the dish too). It's easily one of the best single bites of food I've had in the state of Indiana. For those with dietary preferences or restrictions, the restaurant offers gluten-friendly options that are so good, you wouldn't even know they're gluten-free (and, in my opinion, taste better than the traditional variety)! Of course, traditional waffles are also available for the purists who prefer to stick to the classics. But what truly sets "Invited To The Table" apart is its service. Over the past month and a half, my partner and I have visited four times, and each visit has been a delight. The staff's consistent, top-notch service and the comfortable atmosphere containing natural light and friendly vibes of the restaurant (upstairs, downstairs, and outdoors seating!) makes every meal special, complementing their truly mouthwatering food that should be able to please any customer with working tastebuds!
Such a welcoming and cozy spot with wonderful service and yummy food & lattes. We will definitely be back!
This place is so unique and delicious. The scones are so moist and flaky. Sweet and they also have savory ones too. All of the baked goods look amazing (cookies and muffins)! I have been here twice and have not been disappointed. I wish I lived closer. Coffee and drinks are wonderful too. The owner is super sweet and the staff I have met have been very friendly! Give it a try!!
