Love the Tobin’s and Toonce’s sandwiches! Great quality food here, friendly staff, and a great location across the street from the CSU campus.

Sadly, it's just not good anymore under the new ownership. You know that saying about things that ain't broke. Well, they tried to fix something and the results are sadly underwhelming, to say the least. Sad to see a Fort Collins institution go to waste.Edit: if you have that much time and effort to respond to an honest review, you're failing your guests and employees by serving subpar food. JRR Tolken taking over Pickle Barrel isn't what I expected. But his works were worth reading.

We have been getting Pickle Barrel sandwiches since the early 1990s. We used to love their sandwiches! Today, we ordered for delivery our usual toonces sandwich. It was horrible, super salty, bread was over toasted and not grilled. Sadly I will never go back, it had been going downhill, but it just hit rock bottom.

I used to love this place. Since new ownership took over, the portion sizes are smaller, the prices are higher and the quality is inferior overall. We were even sitting st the bar and the bartender rang us up and gave our check without us even asking for it or stating that we were finished. Would not recommend.

The food is alright. It's nothing to scream over. But closing at 4PM on a Saturday is; considering how much they charge through services like Nosh etc. rude business practice. They gouge the hell out of you having to order through third party systems If you want delivery; and they love being this way. There's no weekend schedule that works feasibly. The residence of FoCo should be catered to as well not just pandering to the college. Because mediocre food is just what I need sometimes but on reflection it's a good thing. No one should be charged so much and being forced to use third party systems is just a business tactic to earn more money. $28 for one sandwich and a side? Are you joking? From a fast food place.... It's not artisanal in any manner. I work in an actual small business. We stay open past closing hours just to ensure the satisfaction of customers coming in. In fact, if customers are still coming we DO NOT close. Bc... you know... money? That thing. Never close until you sell out of product on a normal business day. We are open on Saturdays so I certainly can make a comparison.

I've been going to PB since the mid 90's. Always great food and great place to hang. Smoked pastrami was delish! The new back area is nice.I like to fill my belly at the pickle barrel deli.

I think a small, squished, 6 inch sized sandwich for $12.95 is kinda crazy. Its not even filled with much. And thats a full sandwich according to the menu.I decided to give pickle barrel another try, but this happened again and I can't say I feel inclined to come back for a third.
