Mr. Pickle's Sandwich Shops serve high quality meats and delicious San Francisco breads, along with a choice of six different cheeses, and our concept of "Everything" (mayo, mustard, garlic sauce, lettuce, tomato, pickles, peppers, onions). There are a variety of delicious sandwich combinations for you to create, along with nineteen specialty sandwiches that have become favorites of our customers. Mr. Pickle's serves the fast growing "fast casual" market where customers demand more than "fast food," but without the price point of "casual dining". The trademark of a Mr. Pickle's restaurant is quality, next level service and a comfortable atmosphere. Order at the counter, take a seat, enjoy the fun and relaxed atmosphere, and let the staff do what they do best, make great sandwiches.
