Pickles — Restaurant in Dublin

Location: kimmage. Maybe?

Atmosphere: 21% Oxygen

Staff: not unfriendly. Spend time talking to regulars. Ask too many questions regarding how I'd like coffee. Found this intimidating decided against coffee.

Ordered: the spicey special and a roast beef sandwich. Despite the name only 50% of our sandwiches contained pickles. NB this was as advertised.

The spicey special wasn't specially spicey however the beef was most certainly roasted. The sandwiches as can be seen in the evidentiary photos attached below were welll presented. And while I wouldn't make a pilgrimage to eat one of these sandwiches if you're in the area you should go. I state this as a sandwich pilgrim myself.

It was too windy outside but I decided not to complain about the pickle I was in as on further thought I don't believe the owner or the staff have any power over the weather. If they do by chance and are reading this I'd appreciate less wind in future

Yours kindly, S and B. Incidentally me and B are friends...

I have been going to Pickles for many years and unfortunately, the standard is not what it was when I first went. I feel they haven't kept up with the competing other options we now have locally. Don't get me wrong the sandwiches are big hearty portions on fresh bread. I will go back for sandwiches from time to time now but where I see Pickles has fallen is the atmosphere, you go inside order and stand in a cold gaping room that was once a nice little cafe. Although I do go for sandwiches from time to time I have stayed away from the coffee, as it is awful, I’m not sure if they burn the coffee or the machines need cleaning but I would recommend the owners go and have a coffee in any of the coffee shops that have opened up locally and compare...

Gone a bit more pricey after their renovations. Visited yesterday and ordered a tea and scrambled egg n toast@ €850. The toast which was usually thick cut slices were no more as youd thimk they were cut with a laser they were so thinly cut,and i complained that the amount of egg was a lot to be desired as it was so small.the girl said they didnt use water in their scrambled egg thats why it was small!! but on brighter not she did bring me more egg. But i had finished my breakfast by then. I do like their coffee when im drinking coffees that is. I will return though,as a treat. As there much cheaper but not as nice places to eat around.actuall one is spoiled for chouce now these...
