Pickle Barrel Newmarket - York

Never had the chance to go to this restaurant so we took the family and went for it For a Saturday seemed very quiet but who knows why Service staff were very accommodating and nice so no issues there Server was very nice polite and helpful through the evening Unfortunately it appears as though there was a broken glass at our booth at some point in time which my son cut himself on We we’re relocated as the food was arriving I’ll mention table times were fast so they have that going for them but. Once the glass issue arises I really started looking around and the cleanliness of the establishment really showed unfortunately The owner did come by and crack a few jokes etc Food was ok chicken fingers were the best tasting at this point Nothing done with the bill and no apology at any point just seemed surprised at the glass and the cut Overall without the glass issue this place has far too many food options and that being said what we ordered was basically average and could be made at home Cool place but not up-kept Maybe good for a meeting or a quiet meal

It had been years since I have been in a Pickle Barrel and boy, have they ever changed. The decor is now more Keg-like and upscale than I remember it being in the past. The menu includes the usual deli sandwiches, burgers, etc. They are licensed to serve alcohol and their wine selection is pretty standard. The various members of our group had different entrees, so we got to see a pretty good cross-section of the menu. My Reuben sandwich was very light on the sauerkraut, was missing the Russian dressing and was very small (obviously they used slices of bread from near the heel of the loaf . They do offer the option to increase the amount of meat on their deli sandwiches (pastrai, Reuben, etc. and after my Reuben arrived, I regretted not taking advantage of that option. The couple who ordered the chicken wings said that they were tasty enough, albeit a bit on the small side. The person who ordered a burger said it was tasty. although a hair on the small size. I think that at least 3 of us ordered the sweet potato fries, even though there was a HUGE upcharge for them. However, neither the portion size, nor the taste was worth the price. If I recall correctly, there was a dessert on the menu that about half of the people in our party wanted to try. Unfortunately, the waitress said that they had none left (even though it was still early in the evening and the restaurant wasn't very busy . One person in our group ordered a chocolate milkshake and they seemed to be happy with it.

Good Food and good service. Not outstanding but good and repeatable. Nice modern decor. Food was very good and plenty. As mentioned would be worth going back if in the area again.

Crud in the metal French fry cup that looked like it was there for some time. Food was slow when the restaurant was quiet

A group of 16 women had a fantastic dinner at the Pickle Barrel in Newmarket on April 30, 2022. Manager Brad recommended the Moroccan "cigars" appetizer to me, which was a delicious meat spring roll with hummus. There were many appealing options on the main menu, but I ultimately chose the comforting meatloaf with mashed potatoes and vegetables, which was delightful and served in a generous portion. The dining experience was positive for me, and I believe my companions also enjoyed their meals. The portions, including side salads, were all quite generous.
