Dude. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich, no substitutions or changes…. Why didn’t it have Mayo? Literally how is that chicken salad? Chicken salad calls for Mayo ALWAYS. It was just cold chunks of chicken and celery under shredded lettuce and cheese literally no flavor.

This place is classic. The bread is fresh and soft, they don't skimp, and prices are easy. Go check them out!

Went in to buy sandwiches for our crew and we're taken care of by Pete the owner and it is always nice to see him.

We have been going to Lil Pickle for more than 25 years and have always been happy but recently we've noticed they sandwiches are shrinking. They used to be filled with lettuce and cheese but now there is a lot less of everything. Not happy with this change. Do better.

Local sandwich shop that has been around forever. Friendly staff, classic subs on steamed bread. Get there early as lunch time can get very busy.

I love this place and have been going for years but as a broke college student I've been pretty priced out of it. $12 for a 10in sub is pretty steep. Their giant sub at 14in is now $19?!? Crazy. But I'll still come here for the very occasional treat. Their sandwiches are delicious, the bread is uber soft, and I actually love how stuffed it is with lettuce. They support their local schools/communities so bonus points.

Best sandwich bread ever. #4 regular on white with everything it comes with has been my go to for the last 16 years. My wife turned me on the this spot as she has been coming here since she was a little girl and they sponsored her in sports. Rudy is the Man šŸ’ŖšŸ».

Long time customer, the young gentleman working today was rude and inconsiderate. Definitely, will be losing customers having him

I know it was delivered through a 3rd party, but there is no way to rate the restaurant on the app anymore. The sandwich was a disappointment, and I’ve always loved their food! The pastrami was fatty, but the edges were dried out and the roll was over-warmed. (Which makes it chewy.) Lastly, the chocolate cake tasted old.

I realize the delivery depends on the driver, but the hot sandwich was thrown on top of the chocolate cake. (Which really doesn’t matter much, considering.) That action happens in the restaurant. Needless to say, the cake was smashed and melted. (Since my sandwich was hot.)

Our family loves everything about Lil pickle. The atmosphere is fun and highlights local schools, sports teams and organizations. There's always a warm welcome and friendly employees with smiles on their faces. Today they went above and beyond by giving us a deconstructed meatball sandwich for my kiddo 😊

I really wanted to like this place because it reminds me of a place I used to go growing up. There’s a difference between classic and just worn down. The workers seemed like they didn’t want to help us. They probably had a long day but it was like pulling teeth trying to get them to answer basic questions. We were polite and assured them we’d leave prior to closing. We tipped too. Sandwiches were very mediocre. Very small. Pickles were delicious though. Won’t be back.

Overpriced for a couple of school cafeteria tiered sandwiches. $10 bucks for a sandwich and a pickle?! No thanks, no more price gouging for mediocre foods.
