About Caddyshack
Caddyshack in Petersburg, Indiana makes a case that a pork tenderloin sandwich doesn't have to be enormous to be good. The tenderloin here is crispy-breaded, super tender, and well-seasoned — a version that a reviewer described simply as proof that size isn't the whole story. That's a real editorial position in Indiana, where the plate-dwarfing tenderloin is sometimes more about spectacle than eating.
The breading has genuine crunch and holds together through the sandwich, which is the baseline for everything else. The fried banana peppers are a specific callout from multiple reviewers as a must-order side — the kind of detail that signals a kitchen paying attention beyond the main event. Petersburg is the Pike County seat in southwestern Indiana, and Caddyshack on E Main Street is an accessible, Monday-through-Saturday lunch and dinner stop for a county that doesn't have a long list of tenderloin options.
The atmosphere is casual small-town bar and grill — no frills, no pretense, straightforward Hoosier food served without fanfare. For a region that runs thin on tenderloin destinations between Vincennes and Evansville, Caddyshack in Pike County fills the gap well.
For anyone working the southwestern Indiana tenderloin corridor or passing through Pike County on US-61, Caddyshack at 2124 E Main St in Petersburg is worth the stop — and the fried banana peppers are not optional.
