About
Pet Food Center on Green River Road in Evansville, Indiana is primarily a general pet supply store that happens to carry a modest freshwater fish section alongside its broader inventory of dog, cat, bird, and small animal supplies. Customers visiting the fish department will find bettas and a selection of other freshwater fish, along with fish food and basic aquatic supplies. One reviewer noted stopping in for fish food and walking out with a couple of new fish — a testament to the impulse-worthy appeal of their tanks.
That said, this isn't a dedicated aquarium shop. Multiple reviewers have expressed a wish for more variety in the fish department, and those looking for an expansive selection of species, specialized equipment, or expert aquatic advice may want to temper expectations. The store's strengths lie more in its role as a neighborhood pet center — a clean, well-organized space where you can grab supplies for a range of animals, from bunnies to birds to dogs.
The staff consistently earns praise for being friendly and helpful, which goes a long way when you're browsing and need a quick recommendation. The store also offers pet grooming and self-wash stations, making it a convenient one-stop destination for Evansville pet owners who want to handle multiple errands in a single trip. Pricing has been a point of contention for some shoppers, particularly after an ownership change that bumped up costs on certain items.
It's worth comparing prices on staples you buy regularly. Still, for the convenience of a local brick-and-mortar store with a welcoming atmosphere and attentive employees, many Evansville residents continue to make Pet Food Center their go-to. If you're picking up dog food or bird supplies and want to peek at a few freshwater tanks while you're at it, it's a pleasant enough stop — just don't expect a full-scale aquarium destination.

Customer reviews
“The hours for the pet wash are too limited. They are going to stop honoring pet wash coupons in the next month with no credit for books already purchased. Petsmart has a much better selection.”

— John C3.0Edited 2 months ago“Staff is always friendly and the environment is welcoming.”
— The Vino5.02 months ago“My dog loves the large wholesome Reward dog bones. They cost a little over $5. Went t get them today over $8. Ask clerk why so high she said new owners. Somethings went up and somethings went down. That's quite the jump. Do you think dog owners need your store. It's been convenient t just walk in and get them. But do you know what's just as convenient? Going on line t Chewy and order a different kind but just as good. And it's delivered t my door. With a warehouse in Indiana my last order was delivered the next day. So Im done with your store. Won't ever step a foot in your store again.”

— Erika Bobton5.02 months ago“My baby Freya came in to see Patience this week. She is a great groomer. Freya just loves her. She’s always very patient with her as she has anxiety. So I appreciate her very much. Not to mention she looks and smells great when I pick her up. Thank you!”
— Wonder Woman5.02 months ago“RUN. Patience cut my standard poodle and golden doodle. Stevie Wonder could have done a better job. They are uneven and scalped.”
