    Hey everyone! This video is Part 1 of our Saturday adventure. Recommended by "The Crewmen" from Outside the Box Live. I was here back in I believe 2018 so with his recommendation I came back. I started out with a cup of their chili, I am not going to say it was spicy, because in my opinion it wasn't. I will say it had a lot of flavors to warm you up on a cold day. The chili was packed with lots on meat, onions, beans, and tomatoes. I really loved this to a point when I make it back there, I am getting a bowl. Now, for the "Uptown". It was a hot sub with pastrami, cheese, and Cole Slaw. There was a dressing taste, but I couldn't tell if it was from the dressing in the slaw or something else. Regardless very delicious also. Oh, and they have great tasting pickles. If you have not been here, or it's been a while like me, come back and get a great sandwich or a cup of chili.

    The sandwich's are so delicious and fresh!!! The pickles are the best!! And I am not a pickle person but I think about them often!

    Mac salad
    Kilsis J.

    There is plenty of parking. When we got there they were busy, I got the grilled cheese, it was okay. The chilli dog was tasty however the actual hotdog was hard to eat because of the casing, not sure what it was, never had a hotdog like that. The mac salad was eh, my boyfriend liked his pickle sandwich. The staff was really nice, this place is busy so maybe their sandwiches are better. Unfortunately I was not impressed with the food.

    Legend Philly
    Michael W.

    This was our first time eating here. We were traveling from out of state and this place was highly recommended. I will say we were definitely NOT disappointed at all. I got a Legend Philly and added sweet peppers and mushrooms and it has real cheez whiz on it. It was the best steak sandwich I've had anywhere. My wife got an Italian style sub and an antipasto salad. We ate half the food there and then took the rest to go. It was just as good the next day. The flavors are so good and work well together. You a tell this place takes pride in their food and their service. The service alone was extra extraordinary. We would truly drive to Kingston for the sole purpose of eating here. You can't get any better.

    Buffalo chicken sub

    KJ's pickle barrel has amazing pickles- the name of this place should say just that. I went there for a quick lunch. My sandwich was delicious, my group got some other great selections off the menu there's many options to choose from. It's clean, has a variety of drink flavors from the fountain. I had buffalo chicken with some spicy sauce It still wasn't extremely spicy for me as the cashier was concerned lol. This place is worth checking out and don't forget to taste the pickles!!

    Mango Habanero Chicken Cheesesteak
    Billy B.

    Delicious! While visiting the area I stopped in with my family and was able order the Mango Habanero Chicken Cheesesteak special with a bowl of their homemade chicken noodle soup. The bread here is so fresh and soft. You can tell it's all made from scratch with the freshest of ingredients. The only feedback is I feel like the spice could definitely be brought up a few notches, but I also have a high heat tolerance so that might just be me. There's plenty of seating if you'd like to hang out with your family to enjoy your sandwich. I definitely will be returning once I'm back in town.

    Indoor seating

    Great food, good prices, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Would definitely eat here again!

The extensive menu features a variety of brunch options, salads, and sandwiches. Their veggie options are a bit limited, but definitely present (ex: falafel salad, avocado toast), and many of the dishes feature unique combinations and homemade sauces/aiolis. I landed on the Smoked Salmon Avocado toast, which was fine. I was disappointed that it seemed to be made with prepackaged guacamole/avocado (I'm sure for cost reasons), and the bread was pretty thick so it was challenging to eat. Flavor-wise, it was solid, but I think I'll try one of the other, more creative options next time. My cousin chose their turkey sandwich and seemed to enjoy. It was large enough that she took half home! Our food arrived before our matcha lattes, so we wound up asking for to-go cups. The matcha itself was delicious, though sweeter than we anticipated (in retrospect, we should have realized that a "white chocolate lavender matcha macchiato" would be pretty sweet!).

I ordered a Bloody Mary, but nobody knew how to make one, so I canceled it. The bathrooms were stinky and full of flies, with a fly trap sitting on the sink. The counter looked like it had been wiped down with a dirty rag. Our omelets came out greasy, my wife's bacon was forgotten, and my utensil roll had no fork. My bacon, avocado, spinach, and tomato omelet had rock-hard avocado slices and undercooked bacon mixed with bacon bits. Potatoes were just okay but came with no condiments. I barely ate a few bites before I was too grossed out to continue. When I told the server, she just said, "I'll let them know," and still handed me the full check -- no apology or discount.

They also carry Rotunda Brewery beers, which is one of my favorites from Hershey, PA. Service was pretty good - it took a little bit to get our checks and then wait for her to come back to get our money. There is some parking behind the building, but there is also street parking. From our experience, we would definitely eat here again.
