OMGosh! This is the most amazing food I’ve had in Junction City since we got stationed at Ft Riley 3 years ago.
Let’s talk about it.
The word for the day for this establishment is “Perfect!”, because you may hear me say it a lot. I’m going to save the food for last because it’s the best part…
LOCATION: If you’re looking for them, they are in the beautiful black food truck with the peaches all over it, sitting right between Walmart and the new Navy Federal CU on Chestnut. You can’t miss them.
ATMOSPHERE: There’s a nice patch of artificial turf in front that somehow completes the look. There are also three bar stools for you to take a seat to wait for your food to be made fresh. If the bar stools are full, (like they were the first time I went), you can do just like I did and park at the end of the Walmart parking lot and sit in your car and wait. When you order your food you will be entertained by one of the two TV screens mounted outside of the truck that play a mixed variety of music and videos, while you wait. I love the ordering system for two reasons…
1) It’s on the TV screen so they can update the menu with the stroke of a key.
2) Because it’s electronic, it’s eco-friendly so there’s no paper waste. Which was probably thoughtfully done because I’m sure it saves on the cost of reprinting menus.
I love that the menu isn’t too complex with a lot of options. I’d rather have a place that offers a small selection that they’ve perfected than too many options that we, the patrons take a loss in quality or taste. But keep in mind, just because there isn’t this grand menu, it doesn’t mean you can’t mix and match to make many, many, combinations from what they offer.
SERVICE: One thing I love about any food establishment is professionalism and uniformity. The two gentlemen taking the orders were both in highlighter yellow uniform shirts. (My favorite color btw)
I know a lot of places have gotten away from that and that’s ok, but it definitely added to the already perfect vibe here at “2 Peaches”. The young men were helpful in answering questions I had. The Chef inside the truck has the most amazing story about his journey. I really enjoyed speaking to him while I waited for my food to get ready.
PRICE POINT: Some people may think that the food is too expensive, however I think it’s perfect for the quality/ freshness of ingredients, Taste and the portion size. My husband and I shared the fish plate because the filets are so big!
Now on to the best part…. The food!
FOOD: I’ve been here twice in two days because everything is so good, I had to come back to try something different.
The first day we got the two fish filets with hush puppies and candied Yams. The fish was fried to perfection for me, and I’m sure that’s because the chef came out and asked me to tell him how I like my fried (hard or soft). I chose crispy. The hush puppies didn’t stand a chance with my toddler so I didn’t get to try those but for her picky self to eat them all, that means they were delicious because there isn’t much that she will eat. Now, those candied yams!!!! Oh my oh my! The caramelization from the mixture of the brown sugar, and whatever else he uses to cook them, took me back to my Big Mama’s Sunday dinners.
We also ordered their Peach Habanero fried wings with fries. The fries were just like I like them crispy and seasoned on the outside and soft on the inside. I don’t even know how to begin to explain how delicious the wings are. They were seasoned and fried to perfection. The sauce is amazing, and I don’t even like spicy food, but I’ve never tasted anything like it so, I had to get some. The sauce was spicy, and I could barely feel my lips, but I couldn’t stop eating them. I imagine I’ll be paying for that indulgence later. You know what they say, “Hot going in, Hot coming out”! Lol. What made the wing experience even better is they allowed me to choose all flats. I love how the sauce is so good and thick that you can’t use a regular napkin to get the sauce off your fingers. I used my lips and baby wipes.

The best catfish, greens, and green beans I've had to date. The catfish was seasoned, battered and fried to perfection. Reminded me of NOLA and the surrounding southern coastal area cuisine. The greens and beans were seasoned and cooked to perfection too, to include seasoned meat added for extra flavor.
The Best!
Happy Holidays and thank you for hosting us travelers.

My goodness, what delicious food, I went there for wings and was very surprised about how fantastic the portion was. You get quite a lot of food for the amount you pay and the food is delicious, the owner was super sweet and the customer service was amazing. It's a super cute location right off of Washington street, family-owned and operated. I definitely recommend the wings, they're huge, and they're so delicious and they come and several different flavors to choose from, and they're sweet tea, is definitely Southern tea and it's amazing. I was so excited to try this new place, and I'll definitely be back. Delicious food, absolutely delicious
