The Cleveland Pickle

Very Cleveland. Friendly owner great with kids. Yummy sandwiches with creative menu, unique condiments, local flavors. Fun and creative artwork. Have kids count how many Cleveland Pickles they can find. Small eating space with stool seating only.

I'm a transplanted Cleveland native, but am often back in town for various reasons. I am sad that I never found this place before I moved away. My wife and I make sure to make a point of getting downtown for lunch every time we're in town so that we can make it to the CLE Pickle. We are heading up there this weekend for a wedding, and already have plans to stop by Friday afternoon for lunch. They are by far my favorite sandwiches and I wish you could come to Kentucky and make the Louisville Pickle! See you soon!

If you find yourself in downtown Cleveland and want a delicious lunch then look no further you have found a hidden culinary masterpiece. This sandwich shop managed to get it right. I ordered some deviled eggs and got the Cardiac Kid (a reference to 'Elvis ' and it is a banana and peanut butter sandwich. The price is great, and the ingredients are fresher than most other sandwich places (think the opposite of chains like Quiznos and Subway). It may be a bit pricier but in the end your taste buds will thank you for the orgasm you gave them.

The sandwiches here are great. They are quite large and have plenty of meat and condiments. They are a bit pricey at about $10 a piece but they are well worth it.

Really excellent sandwiches, if you 're looking for delicious lunch downtown this is your place. Thankfully they 're open on Saturday 12-4pm now so even those that don 't work downtown can get a 'West-sider ' or 'classic pickle '.
