The Pickled Pig Pub

Best fish taco in the area. happy hour deals make it even sweeter for an after work pick me up!

My favorite bar food in Rehoboth! The happy hour is awesome! GET THE PULLED PORK TACOS! Great beer selection.

Reluctant to give 5 stars only because I don’t want it to be further discovered. Just kidding, this place rocks! Great place. Great beer choices, great food and great service. Not your typical bar food. Excellent quality and originality. Love this place.

I wanted to try a different place than B Blues and glad I did.
But it’s different if you’re looking for gastropub. The strip mall box was decorated like a pub but the high ceiling and «home-​built» bar counter detracted from the overall experience. The lighting was a bit too bright also in my opinion. But the food was very good. Some truly unique and interesting dish offerings including beers. Presentation of the plate could use some more pizzaz. I got the PB&J Burger and I liked the flavors.
I believe this establishment will get better over time and monetary investment and enhancement. In the meantime, spend your money here at this mom & pop and keep the stars coming!

Came here on New Years Eve for lunch and it was pretty busy. However, we were greeted and sat right away. They have daily specials and when I asked the server if it’s good, he said they seriously change it daily and don’t try it apparently. He wasn’t able to give me his opinion on the food, which was disappointing. They do have a variety of drinks and food on the menu.
I got the Cuban press with fries and totally recommend it! But the pickle that came with it was not good at all. For a restaurant/​bar with the name pickled in it, it was pretty gross. The sandwich is a good portion though. I really enjoyed this place!

I was down in Delaware at the outlets in Rehoboth with my family and we were looking for a place to eat lunch. I opened my Unilocal app and saw The Pickled Pig Pub had 100+ reviews and 4.5 stars. I read a couple reviews and I was sold. My brother who is very active on Unilocal and was an Elite Member this year agreed that we NEEDED to try this place. We drove past the pub the first time because it is located in a small shopping center and the sign by the road, as well as the sign on the front of the building are fairly small. Thank goodness we turned around and came back to find it, because this place is an absolute GEM! Looking at it from the outside, I didn’t expect it to look like it does when I walked in. It didn’t feel like you were in a building in a shopping center. It was very neat atmosphere with the walls covered in different beer signs, cool pictures (Three Stooges eating pickles for example), and memorabilia. There were strings of lights hanging from the ceiling as well. We sat at a high-​top table in the bar area in the back of the pub. There were a few TVs back there, which is a plus for me because I wanted to watch some of the bowl games that were on.
We were greeted immediately by the bartender, who was also waiting on the tables in the bar area. He was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the beers on tap, as well as the food menu. They had a good amount of craft beers on the draft list, and he was willing to allow my brother and I to sample a few (which I am always a fan of).
We started with the Fried Pickle Spears, and my brother ordered the Beer, Cheese, & Crab Soup. The Pickle Spears came out first, but the soup never came (my only knock on our visit). My brother is very easy-​going and was not worried about it, and didn’t bring it up to our waiter. The soup was not on the check at the end, so it was not a big deal (honest mistake by the waiter). The Pickle Spears were DELICIOUS! I expected them to be breaded, but they were battered (like fish and chips). There were about 9 good sized pickles on the plate, which was enough for the four of us. The spicy dipping sauce was excellent. Great way to start our meal!
There were so many things that grabbed my attention on the menu, so my brother and I decided to order two different sandwiches and split them. We decided on the Lamb Sandwich and the Pork Flatliner. I would have to say we made outstanding choices as both were unbelievable. The Lamb Sandwich was made with shaved lamb, which was the first time I’ve seen lamb prepared this way, and I was pleasantly surprised. As I always say, the bread is what makes the sandwich, and this held true in this case, as the sandwich was wrapped in warm naan bread that was nice and fluffy. I HIGHLY recommend this sandwich. The Pork Flatliner was just as amazing. The ingredients say it all. This is heaven on a panini! Ham, shredded pork, pork belly, and bacon (how could you say no to that). The combination of all these different pork preparations gave this sandwich a great mix of textures. The panini was nicely pressed and had a crusty outside with a fresh, soft inside. I would also HIGHLY recommend this sandwich. My mom and future sister-​in-​law asked my brother and I which sandwich was better, and both of us said it was impossible to decide because both were two of the best sandwiches we have ever eaten (no exaggeration!). All of our meals were served with pickle spears, which were the biggest and juiciest pickles I have ever eaten.
If you are in the Rehoboth area and you don’t go here to eat, YOU ARE MISSING OUT. I cannot wait to go back the next time I am in Delaware to visit my grandparents.

I had the fried pickles and the PB&J Burger… Both were awesome! Took off one star because the water tasted WEEEEEEEIRD and my husband asked for a medium burger that came out moo-​ing lol. All in all– would return.

Nice place. Decent grub but outstanding tap beers. I will say the cole slaw is some of the best I’ve had. Had a flatliner sandwich, and it was tasty but a little coarse.
Comfortable bar to sit and eat lunch.

Love the décor of this restaurant especially the bar. I was sick so I just ordered the farmhouse chicken soup and the southwestern chicken salad. The chicken soup came luke warm but there was a lot of good shredded chicken. The salad was bomb! Especially adding the grilled chicken made it perfect ! My friends enjoyed their sandwiches as well :)

So impressed! Have been driving by restaurant that looks like nothing for years. Saw the great review on Unilocal and tried it. Was not disappointed. Will now add to our regular stop every time we come. Love it.

Everything was on point! Get the cheese board! Our group got the Retro ham and cheese, veggie sandwich with bacon, curried chicken salad and roasted veggie salad. All great!

One of my favorite Rehoboth Beach spots.
Great beer selection and lunch deals. I highly recommend the fish tacos, they are fried and have an outstanding pico de gallo.
The pork belly sandwich and BB&J burger are also very good!

Let’s talk about salad. I know what you’re thinking eww salad. Um NO! The Picked Pig has an amazing salad on the menu. It’s a roasted veggie salad with quinoa and you can add a protein for a little extra cash. I added chicken and had their vinaigrette dressing in the side. Ok let’s beak this down. Chicken was seasoned and grilled to perfection. The rest of the salad was cold but not a bad contrast to the warm chicken. Roasted veggies included carrots, red onion, asparagus, zucchini, tomato and I’m sure a few more I’m forgetting. The base of the salad was spinach and red quinoa. To top it off I had their vinaigrette on the side. This vinaigrette is amazing! Slightly sweet, slightly salty. Perfection I tell you!
My husband got the PB&J burger and full heartily agrees with other reviews about how good it was.
We also shared a cup of their beer and crab soup. He liked. I wasn’t a fan. It was pretty bitter from the beer and the old bay popcorn melted in leaving kernels that made my brain think they were shells. But it’s a popular menu item for them. I recommend trying it and seeing for yourself.

The warm, friendly rustic-​modern appeal of the restaurant’s interior was surprisingly betrayed by its sterile, strip mall façade.
Service was friendly and prompt not wasting time with social cliches.
The menu was eclectic… drunken noodles to burgers.
My husband got the fish tacos and pulled pork sandwich. He raved. I got the spicy drunken noodles with shrimp. They were everything they should be.
Our children got the typical fare and it was typical. Perhaps, a couple dollars over-​priced for what it was.
Great beer selection, fun and lively atmosphere. In all, a good choice.

OMGG! When I was deciding from all the delicious sounding dishes on the menu, I just asked myself «What Would Guy Fieri Do??» He’d definitely do the PB&J. Such a genius idea and done extremely well. The strawberry-​jalapeño jam is surprisingly savory with a hint of sweetness and spicy. The peanut butter is noticeable in every bite. I love that chalky, sticky texture it gives and the added smokiness and saltiness from the bacon! If you’re like me and need some freshness in your burger, I asked for lettuce and tomato on the side and ended up using it. It surprisingly didn’t take away from the peanut butter and jelly!
I also started with the Beer, Cheese, and Crab soup topped with old bay popcorn. The popcorn was such a smart idea! They should really cover the entire bowl with a layer! The soup was a hit as well.
The inside of this place is comfortable and much larger than I expected! It looks quite un-​established from the outside but is actually very complete, clean, and warmly decorated. The service was great too. We were greeted and sent off by a friendly bearded man. Our waitress (Renata?) was very sweet too, and dealt with all of our special requests.

After trying to get to this place for a year, my husband and I finally made it! On vacation last year we had planned to go here, but picked a mediocre place right in Rehobeth instead. After seeing that the Pickled Pig was rated the #1 craft beer bar in Delaware on Brew Dogs later in the summer we were kicking ourselves for a whole year realizing what a mistake we had made. But we finally got to the Pickled Pig this vacation and are super happy we did!
Of course to start, we had to get beers. After having spent some time at the Dogfish Head Brewery earlier in the week, I went with the Festina Peche’. They have plenty of other great beers on tap as well. When we went it was the «Bells Tap Takeover», so many good selections from that brewery.
We ordered the fried pickles as an appetizer. They must make their own pickles (I’m guessing from the name) because they tasted so much better than a typical fried dill from any other restaurant. For my main meal I had the spicy Thai noodles, which were excellent. It paired really well with the Bell’s Oberon (2^nd beer of the night). My husband had the PB&J burger, which he loved. I had a bite, and it was really good, but it was really heavy. I don’t think I would have been able to eat the whole thing!
We loved the place so much we stuck around at the bar for a few more drinks. I was so full though I had to switch to a gin and tonic, which was a shame since they have so many good beers.
We can’t wait to come back on vacation next year!

This is decent for something that isn’t in a major metro area. But that being said, I feel like if they’re charging 13 – 14 for entrees, they ought to pretend they’re competing with metro area restaurants.
I got a halibut wrap and it was just dry and bland. Not the worst thing I’ve ever had and totally edible, but I wouldn’t ever suggest this for anyone else. My SO enjoyed his PB and J burger (I would say it’s «interesting» at best.) and the bacon filled potato salad wasn’t half bad so I was debating whether or not to give this place a 3 or a 4. I had to go with a 3 because my $ 10 mango? blueberry sangria tastes like it came from some can, it was not good. I put a question mark next to the mango because I’m not even really sure what type of fruit it was– it was just really inferior wine with some fruit thrown in (not steeped) and the piece of yellow fruit inside was disgustingly chewy and bitter that I had to spit it out.
Also, service was a little luckluster. Not the worst by any means and she had enthusiasm, but she didn’t try any of the items I asked about and didn’t know much about them so she couldn’t give a good suggestion. Servers who don’t know their menu is a sign of mediocre food that isn’t worth eating or caring about. I only realized after ordering that I should probably be eating the flatliner because it has pickles and pig like it’s namesake.
tl;dr: You’re not missing out if you skip the pickled pig. Sorry!

I’m already a big fan of the Pig and Fish, so I had to give their second location a try. My best friend and I dropped in for a late lunch today and were warmly greeted by a woman at the front who also wound up being our server. We quickly decided on our meals and put in orders for some drinks: Brooklyn blast beer for her and twisted pig cocktail for me. (I should have known better than to drink at 2 p.m. The cocktail was tasty but knocked me for a loop!)
Food came out rather quickly and everything was well prepared. I got the PB & J burger, med rare, which came slathered in bacon peanut butter, with strawberry-​jalapeño jam and aged cheddar on a fresh, soft but sturdy roll. It was a delicious, albeit messy, affair. The bff had the bacon jam and blue burger, which came with bacon shallot jam, blue cheese, and red onion. I had mine with a side salad, and she got potato salad with hers. The sides were great, everything was fresh and well-​seasoned, and the toppings were generous.
We were too full for dessert, but it is more than safe to say that we will be back to this great little place hiding in a strip mall along route 1. I was glad to see the joint hopping at 2:00 in the afternoon. Here’s to a great summer season ahead and much success to the pig and fish folks!

Lunch on a Sunday, I had a tasty sandwich called the pork flatliner (implications aside), filled with pulled pork, pork belly, bacon, and ham. Crispy beer to go with it, almost made me fall asleep on the drive back to Maryland. Pretty hearty and flavorful.
My wife’s fish tacos left a little to be desired, salsa kind of bland, but the rest of the menu seemed like solid bar food, not fine dining, but good. Good beer selection, local, and a good vibe, but nothing that makes it jump off the page.

I love this place. The atmosphere has a quirky yet hometown gastropub feel to it. The staff is great — even though they are usually pretty busy every time I go in there! The beer menu is AWESOME! If you like craft beer check it out — they rotate the taps often and it is nice to be able to try something new every time you stop in. I love the fish tacos & the roasted vegetable salad w/​orange white balsamic vinaigrette, quinoa & Parmesan cheese. YUM! Everything tastes fresh and I have tried to recreate the dishes at home without luck. I don’t mind because the prices are reasonable here especially for the creativity & taste.
I’ve started to stop in here pretty often, a few times a week. The service is quick & friendly — the location is right off of route 1 near the Tanger Outlets so it is a very convenient place to stop in for lunch.
The Happy Hour rocks & they have it all day on Sunday. I’ve had the sandwiches, the beer cheddar crab soup, salads, tacos, cheese dips & the only thing I can’t wait to try is the cheese board. Always looks amazing and I will have to update the review once I try it.
Stop in here — it is great !
