Chicago Pickle Eatery
Chicago Pickle Eatery is a neighborhood favorite for enormous, fresh sandwiches, from the signature Chicago Pickle and spicy Italian to steak-and-cheese, turkey club, and roasted-vegetable-and-hummus creations—often served with surprisingly generous portions and pickles. Warm, welcoming service and a casual atmosphere make it great for repeat lunches, families, and groups, though garlic fries can be overly oily and order accuracy or unavailable sauces may occasionally disappoint.

“Cane her with my partner we got the cheeseburger, deluxe burger and the fried mushrooms and it was exactly what we were craving!! Their pickles are actually pretty good too”
“The roasted veggies and hummus sandwich was packed with fresh, flavorful vegetables and a generous layer of creamy hummus. I ordered the half sandwich and it was still much larger than expected. Great portions, reasonable prices, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere made it an easy place to enjoy a meal. This neighborhood restaurant is amazing.”
“This steak, egg, and cheese sandwich was the BEST sandwich I’ve had this year so far. I have to return for another. The sandwich was tasty, hot, and flavorful.”
“Garlic Aioli Steak and Cheese sandwich is awesome. Get the fried pickle spears. Nice owner is nice. Reminds me of a NYC counter serve shop. Do recommend.”
“I ordered garlic fries and it was seeped in so much oil it stained the bag and the container. Gross. I asked for garlic not oil . Not healthy.”
“I walked in and knew this was the right place. They spelled all of our names right for the to-go bags and patiently waited for us to decide what to order. The menu was a little overwhelming because there are so many options, but everything’s a hit. I split a sub with my friend, and they still gave us each two pickles. The cheese pull is crazy on these sandwiches, the half sandwich is plenty of food for one person, and the guy who runs the show let us have a free bottle of water on a sweltering 95 degree day. Would come back.”
“Fantastic food and service. HUGEEEE sandwiches and salads. Everything was really fresh.”
