Came to in a pickle is a classic dinner brunch spot. The staff were all super friendly! They were pretty empty so we got our food so quickly. We got a waffle and a 2 egg meal. Overall they were good, pretty standard what you would expect from a dinner. Next time we come by we want to try the French toast because that looked incredible and there were some unique flavors to try out. read more

Loved this place. Stuff was good. On the pricier end but they nailed every bit of it... down to the pickle. Service was fast, the fries were EXCELLENT and the sandwich was I think fried in cheese. Ambience is even pickle-y. What I got they did well. What I felt was missing were more vegetarian options, FREE real maple syrup upon request. ($4 for that ruled out all of the wonderful sweet breakfast options for me...) and milkshakes! Diner food, diner vibe, no milkshakes? read more

Popped in on a Wednesday evening around 7:15 ish and only one other table so I got to choose where I sat. Sofia was wonderful as I ordered the mushroom burger but with the smash patties 2 4 oz patties vs regular one 8 oz. Came with fries. Wednesday is Wicked Wing Wednesday where if you order a burger or a beer you get 6 piece wings complimentary! What a deal. The burger wasn't seasoned as well as I would have thought and was quite bland, had to add ketchup to help it out. The fries seemed like maybe the oil isn't hot enough as they were clumped together and were very soft in the middle (length wise, not the center of the fry) I only ate the smaller extra crispy ones. If they all had been crispy it would have been great. Got the garlic parmesan wings and those were good. Took them to go. Service was on point and the decor was a simple diner feel. No frills with a mixture of booths and tables read more

Great place to sit outside on a summer day and enjoy breakfast or lunch. Maya was a sweet and attentive waitress. We all enjoyed our food. I had a bacon chicken wrap which was stuffed with freshly prepared crispy chicken, bacon and lettuce. I have confidence the lettuce is not part of the latest parasite ! The fries are crispy just the way I like it. My daughter enjoyed the egg in a hole which came with came with bacon and home fries. Highly recommend . read more

When you're in the mood for brunch in Waltham, everyone definitely thinks of In A Pickle. I must say, their staff are undoubtedly some of the nicest staff around! They're always so sociable & kind. In terms of food, their menu is vast to say the least. They have a ton of options from basic items like eggs & toast to oreo loaded pancakes. In A Pickle's portions are also VERY generous. Honestly, I think their greatest strength is definitely their pancakes. Those were some of the fluffiest & most perfect bluberry pancakes ever! We were definitely surprised by the standard breakfast plate because they didn't nail the basics. The breakfast potatoes were soggy and the sausages were so bland. The sourdough didn't even taste of sourdough tbh. I'd probably skip the basics next time but those pancakes are a definite yes. read more

From the outside, it seems like a very cool concept. Kind of a fun brunch place that might have alot of pickle themed items. It's not really even that. Unfortunately not even the pickle I received with my wrap was good. One bite of the mooshy pickle was enough to put it down for good. Let's start with the pros... service! The waitstaff is awesome. Hands down some of the best service ever. It was 3 women working and they were all on point. 5 stars for service. Beyond that, it reminded of when Friendlys (the chain restaurant) was heading in the wrong direction. The food seems very generic like it was ordered from the supplier and just prepared as is without any flare or personal touch. From the outside it seems like it might be some trendy brunch spot with creative menu items and lots of pickle influences. Don't get me wrong, the prices are very good. That's a huge plus. Ordered the southwest chicken wrap because it had a green square which seemed to be the indication for the recommended favorites. Fries were not fresh and i left the plate of them. The wrap itself was one I might get from a cafeteria style place. The coleslaw was superb though. 5 stars for the slaw. They serve the breakfast menu even at night which is a big plus. And as I said, the prices are very good. I fully expected to see something like spicy fried pickle chips on the menu, but no dice. The dinner menu is mainly sandwich based with some burgers and salad options. I wanted to give the 5 stars because the staff was so awesome. The food just isn't something I would return for at night when I want dinner. Breakfast seems to be highlight here. It might earn 5 stars if I came for brunch or breakfast and did the usually fare. read more

I wish I had taken my photo before I dug in to this huge stack of cherry cobbler pancakes! Giant pancakes with cherry pie filling are then topped with a scoop of homemade cobbler. I asked for the whipped cream and glaze drizzle on the side and they were so accommodating! I also have to say that someone in my party had allergies and it was the best experience I have had navigating this at a restaurant. The manager came out to speak to us and was kind and really took the time to understand the allergy. Tim was fantastic--he definitely knew what he was doing and was thorough in asking questions and explaining food preparation. We felt cared for and confident that it would be a safe dining experience for her specific situation. I highly recommend In a Pickle! read more

In a pickle restaurant is a fine establishment. I have been there a few times now. Now I can say with reasonable confidence that you should go there too. In this post I will focus on their breakfast specials where the price for two special breakfasts is ~$11! This is a steal in this economy! You will have to get there before 9 am on weekends though. They have the same specials on the weekdays too. The breakfasts we had had rye toast, three eggs done your style, home fries, and a protein of your choice (bacon, sausages, ham). The home fries were well seasoned and had a good amount of crispy bits in them. We had an extra side of pancakes. They were hefty and fluffy and the same time. The service was good and the ambiance was family friendly. All in all, I enjoyed going there and will return. PS: Their chicken and waffles are also great! read more

A great find in Waltham. The menu is so vast the hardest part is choosing what to eat! I was rushing the family to get out of the hotel on a Saturday morning and get here before it got too busy. I checked the waitlist and it said no waiting so we were able to get a table quickly. Jenna did a great job of taking care of us. The coffee is nice and strong. I enjoyed the Moody omelette. It was fresh without being too filling. Great roasted potatoes and I have cinnamon raisin toast for the first time in many years. My wife and daughter split the Ringer. So much food! The pancakes are huge. Definitely big enough to split. A lot of young folks working here with smiles on their faces. A really good experience. read more

I love In A Pickle! Love love their hot honey and buttercream chicken and waffles and their loaded berries french toast. Portions are huge! Weekends can have a wait but you can get on a waitlist ahead! They now have brunch for dinner as well as their weekly specials. The loaded chili hotdog was amazing. A lot of indoor seatings as well as outdoor seating in the summer. read more

Ok ok I been seeing a lot of hype about these pancakes for a minute so I had to go try them and this is my true opinion.....

Mixed bag...some hits and some misses. The portion sizes are quite large. The Chicken strips and Oreo waffles were an interesting combo and well made. Pancakes although large, were soggy and very meh. Plus, not real maple syrup. read more

This place has lots of seasonal fun and creative menu items. Good: They play Christmas movies during Christmas time. I really enjoy that. I wish they did that for other holidays. The decorations are very festive. They lean into over the top. This makes it a great place for kids and adults that appreciate quirky things. The staff are very nice and friendly. The way they lean into over the top theming can make this feel more like a quirky restaurant in New York then something on moody st. I would love to see more character in Massachusetts restaurants and In a pickle is leading by example. Bad: The TVs with with America's funny home videos can be a little much. The home fries have way too much salt. read more

I absolutely do NOT like leaving negative reviews about anywhere that serves food, but when you TREAT ME AND MY WIFE LIKE WE ABSOLUTELY DO NOT BELONG IN YOUR ESTABLISHMENT, then I have a problem. The food was good, but when you make me feel like I'm second class, the taste of the food isn't the same. My wife and I came from Los Angeles and read about this location from a Guy Fieri review, we thought, "oh let's go here". Instead, your hostess looked at us awkwardly, wanted to sit us at the end of a table that at the other end, you have four men giving us dirty looks, and you're waiter, Flynn S, also makes us feel unwelcomed and decides to constantly look around to see if he HAS to help us. We're more than happy to spend, but regret going if this is what service was going to be like. For my first visit, it definitely will be my last. read more

Awesome food, great service!!! Great atmosphere!!! So many delicious foods to choose from.

3 stars might be a little too generous but the food was ok just not amazing. Both of us were underwhelmed with our orders. If you do decide to go here, you can add your name in advance to a waitlist. They will only seat complete parties, though. read more

Came here this morning for breakfast. I ordered a breakfast burrito and in the instructions it stated that I can add phone fries for $4 if I wanted to. I decided to order French fries instead. Then I got my meal and It came with both home fries and French fries. I explained to them that I never asked for home fries but I decided to keep them and return the French fries and til the waiter to please take them off the bill. Then he came back and with the check after and a box of cold fries that he kept and stated that the manager said he can't take them off the bill and made us pay for fries that were removed from our table and we didn't even eat. The food was decent at best nothing special about it... but I'm giving 1 star for refusing to remove an order of fries from the bill. Ridiculous. read more

It was New Year's Day. I sat at the bar for over twenty minutes while my server went back and forth and BSed with other customers without taking my meal order. She then overcharged me for a non-alcoholic Hot Chocolate ($16 when menu said $10) needless to say I set a timer and left. She kept asking me about my new years plans as she was trying to cash me out, so weird. Between this treatment and their ridiculous prices, lack of combo meals that include pancakes (pancakes / waffles all separate), I won't be back. read more

I don't know why this restaurant is rated so highly. I live nearby and decided to try it for my favorite breakfast meal which I hate to prepare for myself: french toast and bacon. The bacon was perfect. Crisp without fat slobbered over it. But the main attraction - french toast - was made from so-so bread and I said "no sugar" but of course there was sugar. The tea was Lipton's decaffeinated black tea which is poorly processed. Screaming kids. Terrible acoustics. Can't hear oneself think. All this for $19. The waiter held out an auto check and expected an 18% or higher tip. Geez. Not that great service because the customer did not want sugar. I will make my own breakfast. They are doing a Halloween something or other which does not sound like fun but a scan will capture info and that will suck. read more

I was treated like I shouldn't be allowed in public due to an allergy. They demanded that I tell them the symptoms of my reaction to the food I'm allergic to and told me they did not know the ingredients of their sour dough bread. I've never been made to feel so embarrassed of something out of my control. Horrible place. If I were not with colleagues I would have walked out. Also their yelp lists "vegan options" which should automatically cover my allergy. Apparently that is a lie. And I did try to call that morning more than once, after opening time. Also emailed. No response. read more

Great place with good options for breakfast. I had the Matterhorn omelette and recommendation it. Very delicious and filling. It came with home fries and toast. My wife really liked pancakes she had. I thought they were just ok. They were stuffed with banana and walnut. The center was not completely cooked, most likely because of the banana. It could be a one-off and everything else was great. Our server was great and prompt. Excellent place for a hearty breakfast. read more

Service was not very good. It was a weekday morning and not very busy but our server decided to spend more time talking with the other employees than working his tables. I had pancakes and as someone who eats a lot of pancakes these were at the bottom of the list. Fell apart and just a bad texture. The charges $4.00 for maple syrup and gave you a thimble full. A complete ripoff. Not impressed at all. read more

Extremely sad! I had gone to In A Pickle often. Loved the food. Bragged to my group of friends that I was taking them to somewhere they'd love. One friend has severe nut allergies. The chef basically sent someone out to say that the restaurant does not and will not operate to take precautions and we would be better off to leave. I guess on the 3 possibilities of a friend's death, having us leave or using a clean pan to cook eggs... I'd rather be told to leave over a death but I never knew it was hard to cook eggs separately from other meals. We paid for our drinks and left. Very disappointed!!!! read more

Went today for breakfast. Got seated right away even though it was busy. I got the hash, eggs and home fries. I was in the area and noticed this place got great reviews. My corned beef hash and home fries were so salty that I couldn't even eat it. I told the waitress and she couldn't give two craps about it. Not a fan and would not go back. read more

Serving size was good but I think it's a little tourist trappy. Good to go once in a while. The hot honey chicken and waffles were ok (their hot honey is Tabasco based). I would go to Friendly Toast over this. The home fries from the omelet dish were very very salty. read more

Such a cute spot! I love how In A Pickle came about with the owner being in a pickle to find a spot to open up his restaurant! The food here is amazing! The portions are big and very shareable. I really like the mixed berry French toast! It had the right amount of sweetness and tartness from the fruits. I went right before Christmas and they were playing the Grinch movie and there was a grinch walking around and taking photos with customers! I love how attentive they are to their customers! read more

It was really busy but the wait wasn't too long. All the TVs play AFV which is fun. Our server was super nice and our food came out super quick. It is a small space so it was pretty loud and not much room between tables. Overall I had a good time and enjoyed the food. read more

The food is delicious. Pancake creations that not only look instagram worthy, but taste fantastic. My wife ordered chicken and waffles with hot honey, and she said it was terrific. Certainly a generous portion. I ordered The Ringer and added Oreo Extreme pancakes to go with my eggs and sausage. It was an absurd amount of food. I literally ate less than a third of it and was stuffed. The sausage, eggs, and hash browns were solid, but the pancakes were beyond belief. Absolutely overwhelming in size and flavor. What put this restaurant over the top was the quality of service and attention to detail. They made a mistake with our ticket and our meal was delayed. The manager came over unprompted and comped our entire meal. We tried to decline his generous offer, because the mistake really wasn't that bad, but he insisted. Just really kind people who offer fantastic service and great food. Wish we lived closer, because they've certainly earned loyal customers who will be back whenever we are in the area. read more

Foods pretty good, wait times Can range from 30 minutes to an hour, and staff was friendly! Parking is pretty tough, everything is street parking so be prepared to parallel park! If there's a decent parking spot I have found it yet. Customer service is friendly & brief! Understandably so they're extremely busy every time I've come to visit. I've tried 3 times to eat here with wait times extending 30+ minutes; it was definitely worth the wait for the quality of food, you may not have time to actually wait tho. I'd go on a day when you have no deadlines and errands to truly enjoy the experience. The Food is really good! I've only tried food from the breakfast menu because the lunch menus (burgers, fries, etc.) if you go to their website the have a menu you can see, it's extremely blurry so you'll have to download the PDF which is easier; I recommend looking at the menu before you arrive. I ordered the Steak & Egg breakfast platter, homemade fries, and toast. Along with their pumpkin spice waffles. Truly a home run with the steak and eggs. A big miss with the pumpkin spice; it's gorgeous to look at but it's really spongy, and mine was burnt pretty bad. As far as the restaurant it's crowded and cramped unless you're in a booth. As I've shared before the restaurant has long wait times so you'd be waiting for an incredibly long time if you wait in doors. They have a great informing system where it will let you know how long your wait is and how many parties are ahead of you. The challenge is that since there a bunch of people waiting you can feel the impatience of people around you. People were pretty rude when walking through the crowds of people. I wish I had a recommendation to the restaurant, but you can tell the staff is trying their best to navigate. I think your restaurant may need to expand their space or create a better space for people to wait. read more

This place is the best EVER. First of all, if you say it's your birthday, then they'll give you a picke with a candle on it and sing. I have been here hundreds of times and celebrated hundreds of birthdays. Where do we even start, the menu items are so creative and delicious and filling. I liked the grinch cakes at the holidays and the Oreo pancakes. But also, they are always just doing the most in the best way. The hearse giveaway. Their instagram. The new specials all the time. The Christmas mystery envelopes. This place is the BEST. Me and my crew run in a pickle all the time for literally everything, it is the place. The spot. My home. In a pickle, I am all yours for all of eternity. When I die, I hope heaven looks like your lime green walls. read more

Good breakfast spot with a large menu. The specialty pancakes and French toast appear to be what they are most known for. I got the ringer with caramel crunch French toast. It came with 2 eggs, meat, homefries, and a full order of French toast. It costed extra to upgrade to a specialty so it ended up being over $25 which I thought was expensive but it was a lot of food and everything tasted good so it was worth it. I was especially impressed by how fast the kitchen was. The restaurant was filled with a 30 min wait and the food came out in probably under 5 minutes. I think this was the fastest breakfast service I've ever had. read more
