“ We enjoyed our lunch here. Cute, small place with great food. Friendly staff were helpful. Good menu with a wide variety of offerings. The Chicken Pesto Flatbread was great, as was the Caeser Salad. Downtown street parking can be crowded during peak hours. ”
“ We visited on a Thursday evening in early November 2024. There was parking available on the street. We walked a block or so. The staff was super friendly and we did carry out. Took about 15 mins to prep all our food. The place was fairly busy and had many patrons at the bar as well. We ordered the Wooden Pickle Fries to share which were very good and a nice portion. We also order the Brewery Fries which were well seasoned and very good. We also got the Crab Dippers to share. They were also good. The mozzarella sticks we order for my youngest picky eater. I assume they were good as he ate them all. My wife ordered the Farm Burger and finished most of it but let our middle one have most. I didn't get a bite. My middle one ordered the Crabby Patty and did not like it. I had a couple bites and thought it was fine. Not sure why he didn't like it. My wife and oldest finished the rest of it. The oldest ordered the Confused Mac N' Cheese. I got a couple bites and 100% this was the best of all of them. I would go back just to get this one entree. The ghost cheese made it spicy and so yummy. On a whim we ordered the White-Chocolate Raspberry Bread pudding. While it was delicious we didn't realize how small the portion would be. It was a little disappointing (in size). Everyone got to try one little bite. For the price, probably wasn't worth it. We were staying at Hungry Mother State Park in Marion and if we were to stay in town again or even driving through on 81, we would definitely come back here again. Especially for that Confused Mac N' Cheese. ”
“ This place was so good. I got the confused mac and cheese. I've tried mac and cheese at every place ive been to that had it and this was definitely in my top 3 if not the best. Chicken, bacon, ghost pepper cheese, Monterey jack and parmesan. I had them do half the amount of ghost pepper cause I just like some spice and it was perfect amount. The wife got the clubhouse turkey sandwhich with sweet potatoe fries and they were both so good. She's dealing with lymes disease and they have gluten free option for the bread so it was perfect. Will definitely be going back to try the Philly Cheesesteak. ”
“ My family stopped at the Wooden Pickle on our way home from the Smoky Mountains. Kasi was our server and she was great. She asked my girls about our vacation and made them feel special. When my daughter's quesadillas came out a bit burnt, she immediately had a child approved set be made. The food itself was Delicious! The crabcake was one of the most delicious I've had. They had vegetarian options and healthy ones too. Beer was inexpensive and they have a great selection. I got to try a cider I've never had before. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping in. ”
“ Very good burgers and fries. White flat bread was tasty too! We were traveling through and was looking for a local stop for food and to stretch our legs. Staff was very nice and attentive to our table.the space was not too big, but even with other customers we weren't cramped. Got 2 WP Burgers, a Farm Burger, and the White Flat Bread. We were full when we left! Everything was great and I would recommend it for a nice stop, and if I lived near the Wooden Pickle, my family and I would be frequent visitors. Thank you for the food and hospitality! ”
“ Stopped in last week during a motorcycle trip with a couple friends. What a fantastic little gem! Scarlett took great care of my friends and I! I had the Mahi tacos and my buddies got burgers. My tacos were delicious and the fish was seasoned nicely. Next time I'm in Marion I'll definitely be stopping by to try something else on the menu. ”
“ Me and my partner went here at around 6pm on a Saturday and they where packed. We waiting for less then 15 minutes and we got our food very quickly after ordering. The wait staff is friendly and the food was delicious! We got the pickle fries and pub pretzels for the appetizers. For our mains we got the Brooklyn PD flatbread and the carnitas street tacos. The tacos where so good we got some to take home! Definitely fairly priced for the quality of the food. ”
“ This place was recommended by a friend. What a great place. Service was excellent and the food was superb. I had the Cuban Panini and Mo had the Portobello Panini. The Cuban was the best Cuban style sandwich I have ever had and Mo loved the Portobello Panini. The Brewery Fry appetizer was a perfect way to start the meal. ”
