Reviews for Mr. Pickle's Sandwich Shop in Modesto, CA
BELOW average - DEFINITELY WILL NOT BE BACK. Wife and I had an afternoon off together and so decided to go have some lunch. ... Ruled out a few other (tried and true) comparable options and opted for Mr Pickles on Oakdale Road, Modesto. Wife had neverbeen there before; I had, but it had been a while. What a disappointment. First of all, no dine in available. They had allthe chairs and tables removed. No fountain drinks available - only $2 - $3 not-very-cold bottled drinks and a very minimalselection of these. Very loud environment due to their ongoing "Covid" practices in place; everyone still masked up withplexiglass barriers making it almost impossible to hear eachother while exchanging order information at the counter. I ordereda large sandwich and when offered various "regular occurring" sandwich toppings and saying "yes please and thank you" i wasinformed they were all add-ons, at an extra cost, and for an already overpriced, smaller than average "large" sandwich. Thesandwich turned out really scrawny and bland... totally undervalued. And finally, the free cookie. Lol. The free cookie wasabout the size of an oreo and the consistency of a well-done bisquit, and about the same color brown. This sandwich shop issubpar compared to Togos, Quiznos and Subway, not to mention any of the Mom & Pop types shops where the premimiun is placed onquality. I can do without the "woke" atmosphere also. Covid did enough UNNECESSARY damage before.... I won't patronize anyplace that still embraces it unnecessarily, yet doesn't even have the service and quality to back up the inconveniences theyimpose on customers. Read more
Only giving a two star because their sandwiches are really good the customer service however is not I went in there 15 minutes... before they were closing and they act like they didn?t even help me it was a short Hispanic girl there who was rushing me for myorder and she didn?t even end up making my sandwich some guy did and he was very slow and act like he didn?t know what he wasdoing Then some women came from around the counter to rap my sandwich and I?m pretty sure she didn?t wash her hands I asked herif she touched my sandwich she said no! I won?t be coming here ever again at least not this location Read more
First off your sandwiches are no where close to the picture they show. The onions are soggy and gross. Tomatoes and lettuce are... not much better. You call and ask if the onions are good today they tell you they are fresh but they are not. Bread is usually alittle dry. I wish I could give a better review but they would have to get better produce and actually put more than just acouple small pieces of meat. If you made the sandwiches of the pics you are showing this review would be great. Read more
Employees were nice. Was greeted and helped as soon as I walked into the door. The food was good but the Dutch bread was so so... SOOOOOO SOOOOO VERY hard it was almost impossible to eat. Which sucked. Paid $50+ dollars and not sure it was worth it... Andtheir credit card machine was down. So had to pay cash which was a inconvenience to all the customers. Made the wait time longerthan expected especially for those who only have a 30min lunch break. Read more
The sandwiches were delicious and well made. Unfortunately we ordered online for pickup, and when we got home with our order we... realized one of our sandwiches wasn't correct, we asked for no pickles or mustard. There were pickles and mustard. That persondidn't get lunch, $11 wasted. There is no way to contact the store and get it fixed. Read more
I've only ever had the hot pastrami on "Dutch crunch" bread. It's great. Basically the highlight of the place is that Dutch... crunch bread. It's a medium firm bread with an extra crunchy crust (see photo). Adding that bread and getting "everything" onthe sandwich definitely creates a signature meal, not just another everyday sandwich. So definitely try it out. The place itselfis a tiny storefront with minimal provisions to dine in, so you probably won't want to eat there and definitely won't want tostay at all if you have a group over 4 people. There's generally a line crowding the interior... So yeah, take it to go if youhave any type of group. Prices are not terrible for what you get. You'll end up paying $10 for a full size sandwich which willbe good enough for one meal. Some people can get two full meals out of one but that's not me. So if you're an eater at all,you're getting one $10 meal. The service is fine. I've never waited more than a few minutes to get a hot sandwich. The pace inthe place is quick so figure out what you want and just order it. Don't be the problem person cramping up the line with somecrazy custom order ???? Plenty of parking in that shopping center. Overall good place. Always a place to hit while in Modesto. Read more
First time here. Staff was very welcoming. I was in and out in just about 5 minutes. Went with their specialty Got Beef sandwich... on their Dutch Crunch Roll. Total cost was just a little under $10 but I did receive a complementary cookie. Overall, reallyliked it. I would not mind dropping by from time to time. Read more
This is the worst customer service. My daughter ordered a sandwich and wanted a combo. She grabbed chips and a drink. They... charged her individually. When I brought it to their attention, thinking they would kindly reverse it and give her the comboprice, we were told they don't assume we want a combo. Lol. Who would buy a chip and drinks and not want a combo? They stillwouldn't reverse it. Every other Mr. Pickles has been great. But warning, make sure you say combo or they will steal your poor16 year olds $2. It's laughable. On principle alone, she should've said I apologize I didn't realize and gave the teenager whodidn't know to say combo her $2. I have worked customer service and helped the rudest customers all with a smile. Terriblecustomer service. Read more
