This is a charming cafe in an older home that was converted. The food is good and freshly made. It's a combination of self serve and table service that works well. The only challenge is parking which is limited.

HORSERADISH BEEF, Potato Salad, Double Chocolate Ginger cookie, FRIED PICKLES

Came here after a decade-long break, and it is exactly the same. What a relief! The staff are friendly and helpful, and the food matches the mood. Their pickles (fresh or fried) are above the hype, but for lunch get the horseradish beef sandwich. It's one of my favorites on the planet.

We had taken a tour of downtown Roswell and were interested in grabbing lunch before a lengthy drive home. I had found this place online and it looked interesting. The restaurant is located about a quarter mile north of the heart of Roswell's center / restaurant district. It is built into an old house, and uses the backyard as the parking lot. There is only one entrance / exit driveway, so it can be challenging to get out. During the day, they appear to share the lot for the adjacent restaurant (which is dinner-only) so if I returned I'd probably try to park there instead. We arrived around 12:30 p.m. on a Saturday. We waited in line about 10 minutes to place our order at the counter. They had some tables inside (spread across multiple rooms) and many picnic tables outside. The food was pretty good. I think I got a BLT and my wife got a chicken or fish sandwich. I think there was a salad involved in someone's dish, which was also good. Everything tasted fresh. If you don't mind crowds, this is fine. There was a constant stream of people placing orders, picking up food, etc. That is not a criticism, just a fact. This is not a quiet lunch, but it is a good lunch. I'd consider returning here if I wanted lunch in Roswell.

So good! Stopped in for lunch and we had the tuna melt and the turkey sandwich, both awesome highly recommend the tomato basil soup!

Phenomenal, hands-down the best RUben sandwich I've ever had!! and let me tell you I've tried plenty in Chicago, Boston, California and Florida but this takes the cake!!

Italian sandwich & Caesar Salad

My friend and I were thrifting around the area and had never been to Roswell before. We drove down a strip of restaurants in cute houses, and the Fickle Pickle stood out. I'm so glad it did! I'm all about a restaurant in a house because I love the cozy feel. The line was really long, but it moved quickly. They had an Italian sandwich for the special so I got that with a Caesar salad and you get a loaded sandwich. We also tried their pickle flight and fried pickles, and all of the pickles tasted fresh and flavorful. If you are in the area I'd definitely recommend!

The outside and inside are a cute and historic old Roswell house. The staff are all very helpful and friendly! We ordered the fried pickles and pickle sampler, both were fantastic!! I don't like bread&butter pickles, but even those were ok my Brie BLT is now one of my favorite sandwiches, and my husband loved his Creole Cuban

I wanna love this place, really. I'm going to be in the minority here, but honestly, I don't think it's that great. I know lots of people love this place, but when I went back recently, it wasn't the place I remembered from awhile back. This place is super quaint, running out of an old, historic house. It's very popular for lunch as the line and the small, gravel lot fills up shortly after they open at 11. If you drive into the lot and find it full, good luck backing out. It's tight. In case you miss the signs, there's additional parking at Osteria Mattone. I was pretty excited about the cuban thinking ... a place with pickle in the name serving a sandwich that has good pickle presence ... should be legit. It was good, decent. The creole thing gave it a nice punch. It's just not a cuban. Not on the right bread, not the right kind of pork, etc. The coleslaw I ordered was less like salad and more like soup. Tuna melt was good but again nothing epic. Potato salad definitely not my favorite. Now, I will say those fried pickles breaded in cornmeal and deep-fried are worth coming for. Delicious!

--had to come after seeing andy's hilarious & wholesome tiktok video-- catfish & green tomato sandwiches were both delicious!! the soup of the day (clam chowder) was extremely unique/delicious as well, highly recommend! and of course, the fried pickles were *chefs kiss* there's a lot of indoor and outdoor seating; the airconditioning in the back unit area is SO powerful and refreshing! felt amazing to walk inside and use the bathroom in there after eating outside in the summer heat/humidity staff was very attentive & service was prompt! would def come again & highly recommend!

Is this a place one could also go to study?

I would say no. Crazy Love Coffee shop across the street is better.

Are they open on Labor Day?

They were not open for Labor Day. Super disappointing to drive there and then be closed

Unfortunately, our excitement quickly faded before we were even seated. When I walked into the restaurant, I was completely ignored by a young blonde employee named Claudia who was standing behind the counter in the waiting area. She looked directly at me and continued what she was doing without so much as a greeting or an acknowledgment. A simple, "Good morning, someone will be right with you," would have gone a long way. Since no one else was in the lobby and I noticed a clipboard on the counter, I politely asked if there was a waitlist. Claudia responded with an attitude that she "wasn't the hostess." I calmly asked where the hostess was, and she simply replied that she was clearing tables. There was no offer to help, no explanation of the process, and no attempt to assist me. She continued interacting with other staff members while I stood there feeling like an inconvenience. Thankfully, another employee who appeared to be a waiter noticed me. He immediately picked up the same clipboard that had been sitting on the counter, took my name and phone number with a cheerful attitude, and let me know it would be about a 15-minute wait. His professionalism completely contrasted with the poor customer service I had just experienced. Once seated, our waiter was personable, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was also very good. I ordered the Chicken Sausage Scramble with hash browns, and it was delicious. My friend ordered the Catfish and Grits and thoroughly enjoyed her meal as well. The food and our waiter helped redeem the experience, but first impressions matter. Management should ensure that every employee understands that providing basic courtesy and hospitality is everyone's responsibility, not just the hostess's. Even if greeting guests or managing the waitlist wasn't Claudia's primary role, there was no excuse for being dismissive or rude to someone walking through your front door. Alpharetta has no shortage of excellent brunch spots with both great food and outstanding customer service. Sadly, because of the way I was treated before I was even seated, I won't be returning to The Southern Porch. I also won't feel comfortable recommending it to friends or family. It's disappointing because the kitchen and our waiter did their jobs well, but one employee's attitude overshadowed what could have been an otherwise enjoyable brunch.

Got our table immediately after opting for the valet outside. Once we sat down we ordered some drinks and then of course had to get the corn bread and chicken salad croquets. The bread was delish with the honey butter but the croquettes were such a fun combination and delish! And of course if you come here you have to get the fried chicken and it's definitely plenty for 2 people and the kitchen split it for us which was great. The chicken was juicy and so flavorful and we got the potato salad which was delish. They brought us a small version of the banana pudding as well for the birthday which was so fun and I don't like banana pudding but this one was pretty yummy. Delish!

I gotta say this is kind of a weird experience, Been trying to make it in for their Monday night…read morethree course menu for a while and finally made it across town to check it out After they finish the remodel. There's a lot to cover here so we'll just dive right in. Upon arriving it's a very cute space very welcoming very homie. It really feels inviting somewhere where you want to hang out. Upon arriving, we had a reservation. The host was very friendly. We were immediately seated. Overall, during the experience, the service was great, the server was very friendly, and attentive without being overbearing. We went with the three course Fixed menu as it seemed like a great deal. We ordered the mango habanero meatballs, the hogs in quilts, the fried chicken, the macaroni, field peas, and banana pudding. The meatballs were absolutely delicious. I mean, extremely tender, flavorful, very well balanced soft. I mean, honestly I could just see the whole pot of these meatballs.. There's nothing to change about them. They were literally perfect in every aspect. And steaming hot. Next was the hogs in quilts. Am I mind I'm thinking kinda like this southern pulled pork sandwich situation and a crêpe. Well that is kind of what it was. I didn't expect it to be cold. I thought this would be a hot dish and it didn't specify on the menu that it was not a hot dish. I don't know if that was just an error on the menu side or an error on the preparation side. Either way, this is a very much less desirable dish after having such delicious hot meatballs. Add this dish came out hot. It probably would've been better, but considering it was cold and the crêpe or quilt was so soggy even though the sauce was on the side, just was not an enjoyable item. Then comes the fried chicken! I have to say it was significantly more than I expected. I expected maybe a quarter chicken but you actually get a whole half of chicken as the Entree. The chicken came out hot, very crispy skin, and juicy meat. There was a little flakes sought on top, but overall, I would say the chicken itself laced seasoning. Again, everything else on it was pretty solid. It just needed some salt and seasoning into it to really take it to that next level. The macaroni was pretty much macaroni. Not too much wow factor behind it pretty standard. It came out hot though wasn't anything super impressive. Now the field peas. That was kind of one of the items I was super excited about but again, maybe I misread the menu. I guess I had the expectation of almost like a hot fall bean dish or something like that but again it came out refrigerator cold. I didn't notice anywhere on the menu where that said it was a cold this nor was it mentioned at the time of ordering that that was a cold dish. With that said the peas were also pretty too some, and if I was to order the dishes I would definitely try to request that it was served hot and again, just a little bit of extra salt. Now off to the dessert. The banana pudding! This is another item. I was super excited about. The overall presentation was nice, The pudding itself was tasty, and the banana on top was perfect. That's kind of where the positive stops here. The banana they used inside the dish was so unripe that it tasted like a little rock inside. It was almost like they used a piece of plantain that was still green. It really kind of ruined the whole dish You know it's really sad because the things here that were great were really great but the things that were bad were really bad. I think the atmosphere is wonderful. I think the service was decent. I just think there's some clarity that should be made and just for a personal preference minor tweaks that could really send this over the top. Maybe the time they took off during the remodel had things a little bumpy on their first Monday night back. I feel like there's way more potential to this place than what I experienced. we asked for a box to take the remaining chicken and the not even half eating sides home and she took it inside to box it for us. Get home. NO SIDES, JUST CHICKEN

So when I saw this location open I was happy. I finally had the chance to check it out and was surprised to see they also sold ribs. We arrived at 835p and when we got to the register we were told that the dining room was closed and it was takeout only. At 835! The three of us had planned to have full dinner, but my mom was not too keen on eating in the car, so she decided not to get anything. I was really hungry so I got a two piece and cornbread and figured I could manage that in the car. I was wrong as the crunchy chicken definitely left crumbs everywhere. As we sat in the car, we watched them lock the doors at 847p and then ask the remaining customers to leave at 850p. We couldn't believe that they actually handed them white boxes and asked them to leave! We then watched two other customers come and try the door and then walk away. I'm big on the entire dining experience, and this really left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't know if I'll go back. If I do I'll have to make sure it's in the middle of the day when there is no threat of me being escorted out. It's too bad because the food is pretty good. But there are just too many restaurants in the area to deal with that.
