Pickles Deli - Deli Counter from our table. THJS PLACE IS THE REAL DEAL! - Delis Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Soup and salad hit the spot! The most outstanding item was the croutons! They are made from the bread they use for sandwhiches and I had rye and also a rosemary bread crouton, both really added to the salad. I had a Cesar salad and added rare roast beef as the protein. I also enjoyed a Beef Chili with Cheddar Cheese. The staff were helpful. The dining area was clean. I liked the vibe for lunch. read more

Great sandwich shop in the CWE! They have a small seating area and parking is street parking. There are many sandwiches and sides to choose from. I went with the Reuben with corned beef and it came out nice and warm. The bread was toasted and cheese melted. Overall the food is decently priced and a great lunch option to have in the area! read more

Nice deli, very friendly staff. Plenty of seating options with quick service. I had a BBQ pulled pork sandwich on sourdough, the meat was delicious and the sourdough bread was great - I personally prefer pulled pork on a bun, but that's neither here nor there. Overall solid choice for lunch. read more

I was starving and didn't want any of the cafeteria food at work. I've heard a few co workers in the past talk about this place. I went a little after they opened and I decided on ordering a pickles club sandwich and sour cream kettle chips. The staff was friendly and the wait for my food wasn't log ( about 10 mintues). The place is clean and well organized. The sandwich was amazing and tasted really well. I wish I would have grabbed some mayo or mustard since the avocado spread was the only thing on the sandwich but other than that this was pretty tasty. Will be back to try more sandwich. As always until next time... read more

We are very disappointed today. I know they close at 3:00 but it was 2:00pm when we got there. Everything was already put away and the sandwich was nothing but scrapped together scraps of meat. Very disappointed not sure I will ever return or recommend Pickles to anyone again. Cost over $21 Central West End read more

Sandwiches were good. There is outdoor seating area so you can bring your dog and sit outside on a nice day. Got our food pretty fast. read more

Been wanting to try Pickles Deli for awhile, so was very excited to finally get the opportunity to try it. The store was pretty packed for a Saturday lunch, but the food got to our table very quickly. I ordered a Pastrami on Marble Bread and it was pretty good. The woman at the cash register said that their pastrami was voted the best in St. Louis which I'm not quite sure about, but it was pretty good nonetheless. I appreciate that it wasn't super heavy on the meats and that there were a lot of sauerkraut and different types of cheeses to balance it out. Also, the ingredients weren't overflowing enough so that the bread wouldn't catch all of it which now in hindsight maybe is a bad thing because you would want more ingredients in the sandwich. This is like the opposite of the pastrami at Carl's Deli where there is so much meat the sandwich begins to burst. Overall, pretty good deli although not the best pastrami in St. Louis in my opinion but would come back to try their other hot sandwiches. read more

Stopped in for early lunch last Thursday while in STL for appointments knowing nothing about this spot...super impressed though! The sammy's were outstanding and everyone working seemed happy and pleasant! We tried multiple different sandwiches and all of them were crazy good! My only slight knock was just a bit too loud on the music...could have also been because it was early morning but I felt few notches down would have helped the ambiance a bit! read more

Been here twice and I have to say my impression is pretty average. During my most recent visit, I ordered the French dip sandwich. I will say, the sandwich itself tasted great - the beef was juicy and well-seasoned. However, a common theme among my visits (and the pictures on the menu) is portion size. Most of the sandwiches appear to fall on the smaller end. Even the meatball sub is nowhere close in size to what you'd get at a chain like Subway or Jimmy Johns. Given the sandwiches alone are $11, without drink or sides, I'd expect better portion sizes to justify the price. The value here is slightly better than Panera, but just barely so. Service was fast. Overall, the quality of the sandwiches here are actually decent. For the price, I wish the portions were larger. read more

This place is in my neighborhood, and since I've been living here for three years, I figured I should try it. I am sorry I waited!! I ordered the Philly Cheesesteak, chips and an iced tea. Oh and a cheesecake brownie. The sandwich was very tasty. I think they could get a better chip selection. The brownie was on the gooey side, which I like, but know others don't. The staff was friendly and helped me decide between the Reuben and the Philly Cheesesteak. This place also serves breakfast which looks good! I'll have to try that soon! read more

Pickles Deli - Philly Cheesesteak - Delis Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Freshly sliced deli meat and great sandwiches! We tried the Reuben with Corned Beef, The Philly Cheesesteak and the potato salad - all 10/10. This deli is underrated. Way better than any Panera or other chain you'll have in the area, so I HIGHLY recommend stopping in or ordering something to-go - patronize this local businesses, they're worth it! read more

I have this annoying quirk where I sometimes walk into a restaurant that specializes in something--like bar-b-que---and end up ordering an item that's not their specialty, such as a chicken fried pork chop. Or, I go into a terrific hamburger place and choose fish and chips. The results are predictable: dissatisfaction with my choices. Today, I went to Pickles and rather than order a deli staple like a Reuben, a Cuban, or a pastrami sandwich I walked out with a gyro. Now, it wasn't a bad gyro but it didn't dazzle like those from Mediterranean restaurants. Pickles might be a five-star spot. I'll have to return to find out. Pickles offers friendly, helpful staff and a smallish dining room. Paid parking on the street is at a premium on this popular West End street. read more

The Greek salad is always a filler for me and the mushroom soup was tasty however, the pita bread tasted like Fabulous cleaning product therefore, I couldn't eat it. The service was good because the cashier assisted me with the menu and my options for a vegetarian meal. The ambiance was a typical local deli. However, the deli smelled like Fabulous cleaning product which let me know they just cleaned the place and probably wiped the counter down with the cleaning product resulting in my pita bread tasting like Fabulous. read more

I had a nice little lunch date with a fellow Yelper, Dennis W. a few weeks ago! We decided to meet at Pickels Deli which I had always heard about, so I was excited to try it! When we arrived the place was pretty packed; I guess a lot of people in the CWE like this place? We waited in line and looked over the menu until it was out turn to order. I decided to create my woes sandwich since I am pretty basic. I opted for a pretzel bun, turkey, Swiss and an avocado spread! I like when I can choose my own items and anytime I can order a pretzel bun, I order one! They are the best. I couldn't tell if I wanted chips or pasta salad, but when I got closer to the counter where the pasta salad was, I decided it looked too good to pass up. I let the cashier know what I ordered and I paid my tab. I asked for a cup for water as well. Since the place was so crowded, it was challenging to find a spot, but we found a 2 seat table towards the front of the restaurant and waited for our food to be delivered. My sandwich was massive! I took one look and knew I could only eat about half of it. The pasta salad was delicious and I am glad I decided to order it. Since they were so busy, the service was just okay. They were all working very hard at taking orders and preparing orders that it was hard for them to excel at the service. But the execution was good; except for my friend's order because he asked for no slaw and they still managed to provide the slaw. He was such a champ though because rather than sending it back, he just picked it off! I just think they were so busy that maybe the order taker didn't hear his request or maybe the sandwich maker overlooked it? Either way, they made a small mistake which I can overlook since they were really busy! Overall, this is a good spot for lunch. I can see why it's so popular and I do want to go back. I bet in the warmer months it would be nice to find a place to sit outside while eating? Or maybe I can place a pick up order next time and go have a picnic in the park? I will add this location to my lunch rotations. read more

If I could do a 4.5 I would, but a 5-star review needs to check all the boxes- easy (and free) parking, good music, good service, incredible good. This did have good food, good music, good service but no free parking and lacked ambiance (decor). I got the build your own sandwich on a pretzel bun, which was really good. The Dr. Pepper from the fountain was really good; sometimes it's too sweet or too bubbly or flat but this was just right. read more

Rating: 4.4 Stars This was my first ever order from Pickles Deli. Because the Meatball Sandwich that I ordered from Pickleman's Gourtmet Cafe on Wednesday was still fresh in my mind, it made sense to order Pickles Deli's Meatball Sub. This would also allow me to compare it to the meatball sandwiches at Good Buddy's (the GOAT) and Gioia's Deli. I ordered on the website, and this was straightforward. They were also efficient at preparing my order when I picked it up. My major complaint here is regarding the Gooey Butter Cookie. The online menu says "Gooey Butter Cookies"--plural--but you only get one cookie per order. This was misleading and disappointing because I had to order a second cookie. However, after discussing this with someone on The Team at Pickles Deli, this online menu error was corrected. The Meatball Sub was solid. It was very large and a little overwhelming to eat. The bread was fresh. Unlike other meatball sandwiches that I have had in St. Louis, this version only came with three meatballs. The sandwich had pretty good flavor, but its components weren't mixed well at all. They just put the meatballs in, poured sauce over it, put cheese on top, and then heated it up. Adding the cheese on the meatballs and between the meatballs and bread would have made for a better sandwich. Instead, I was left with a layer of melted cheese that I could easily just peal off and have no mozzarella at all. I am not quite sure what "higher standard" this is satisfying, but at least it is consistent with the photo on the online menu. I give Pickles Deli's Meatball Sub 3.8 Stars. Despite the disappointing (now corrected) error in plurality on the online menu, their version of the Gooey Butter Cookie was phenomenal, and it is the best Gooey Butter Cookie that I have had in St. Louis. It had amazing taste, the perfect sweetness, and the perfect fluffy and soft consistency. This saved the meal, and I really recommend it. The Gooey Butter Cookie will likely get me to come back in the future. I give Pickles Deli's Gooey Butter Cookies 5.0 stars. The average of the two items comes out to the 4.4-star rating. read more

We were hungry and lazy so we went online to order sandwiches to go from Pickles Deli. I dropped him off and he was in and out before I knew it. I ordered the club sandwich and he got the French dip. Mine had turkey, ham and bacon etc. with an avocado spread along with a pickle spear. Delicious that day and also the other half the next day. He said his French dip was delicious and ate it all. Would I come back here? You know I will. And that's the way it is. read more

I thoroughly enjoy this lovely deli in the Central West End. What a great spot for a fresh salad or a toasty sub in a fun and hoppin neighborhood. Its a great spot for good food and fast service. I've never been disappointed in my lunch choices here. The sandwiches are bomb and their mac n' cheese is to die for. You really can't go wrong with any of their menu items. You can even order online and have it ready by the time you arrive, talk about efficient. It tends to get busy around lunch time, but have no fear, taking your meal to-go is just as yummy as in the store! And if you have a group, they even cater! They do an excellent job preparing for a big crowd. I love coming here and so do my co-workers! Definitely a spot to try! read more

Pickles Deli - Grilled Cheese - Delis Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

By far one of the best deli in the City. Food always fresh and delicious with great customer service.

Super nice people, I was in on Halloween and they gave me candy with my meal. Had the breakfast Reuben, good stuff.

I am sure, if you know me at all, whether in person - or from my reviews on Yelp --- you know that there are several things that I have an emotional connection to, food-wise, that I would consider myself an aficionado on. Wine. Whiskey (working on varieties). Tacos. Cuban Sandwiches. I know, I know... very diverse! My husband and I decided to embark on a quest after reading a few articles about good Cuban sandwiches in the city and thus a list was presented to us that I believe was in the Riverfront Times two years ago. Every other weekend, sans kids, we were checking another place off of our list. At this point, I'd had an innumerable amount of cuban sandwiches over the course of my life, given it is one of my favorite meals. I have tried variations by restaurants where they did their own thing and gave it a name after their own restaurant because they doctored it up a bit. Ok, that's cool - but I want the real thing. The real Cuban sandwiches that migrant workers used to eat and make, on Cuban bread - with zesty mustard and thick sliced pickles. Bring it! The next stop on our list was Pickle's Deli. The night before we had actually had a "signature" (a restaurant's variation of a Cuban sandwich, not the real deal) Cuban Sandwich and we weren't terribly pleased to say the least... it was just... "ok". To cleanse the palette and renew my desire to continue the "tour de Cubanos" we went here. The pickles were crisp, the bread was warm and fresh and was the closest to Cuban bread (though a different shape) that I have had thus far. the meat was piled high and layered appropriately, the mustard quite tangy and the pickles crisp. I was so pleased with the Cuban sandwich here that I have started to weight all of the other Cuban Sandwiches against this one. When I said innumerable, I meant it. I truly cannot count how many Cuban sandwiches I have tried, nor how many establishments. There is one that always stands out in your mind, however -- and this sandwich is that for me. (The following weekend after this we tried the "signature" Cuban Sandwich at Dalies Smokehouse - review forthcoming.) My husband got the Reuben and he said it is definitely one of his favorite Reuben sandwiches, (he later found another closer to home that he loves at Fozzie's Sandwich Emporium). I am very pleased with the Cuban sandwich here and I hope to return to try some of their other options once I have completed my quest. Who knows? Maybe this will end up being the best Cuban Sandwich in St. Louis, according to me, after the Tour de Cuban Sandwiches mission is complete. read more
