A Restaurant That Only Serves Pickles Is On The Way

Will you relish it or hate it?

Pickles are polarizing: While some people pick them as their favorite snack—and they’re one of the most storied of pregnancy cravings—others totally hate them. And then there are the next-level pickle obsessives who swear by boozy pickleback shots. Riding the cult following of the vinegar-soaked cucumber, one man decided to open a restaurant dedicated to the garlicky things.

In New York (of course) the team behind a kosher shop called The Pickle Guys is now working on a full blown, brick-and-mortar sit-down restaurant concept. So far, the menu is still in the works, Eater reports. But the shop’s manager said it’s leaning toward focusing on various types of fried pickles. Because obviously.

But there will also be variations on the pickle in fried form, including fried okra, fried mushroom, and fried tomato. “We pickle many, many things throughout the year,” manager William Soo told Eater. “We’ll try to bring that stuff to the eatery.”

Once it opens—the date is currently slated for sometime in March or April—the restaurant will be set-up for to-go orders, however there will also be limited seating at bar stools and tables.
