Fried Pickles!, Fish Tacos!, Pork Flatliner!, Warm Pretzel Turkey Sandwich!, A Cuban Press!, Southwestern Salad!, Asian Bistro Salad!, Evolution Beer!…at the Pickled Pig Pub, Gastropub, Restaurant, Review, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware Beaches
Gastronomy is the art of food eating. In Rehoboth Beach we have one of those restaurants that is a blend of gastronomy and pub. Connoisseurs of beers will tell you that this pub is known for having a wide variety of beers; among those, are the local brews; Delaware and Maryland.
The Pickled Pig Pub is located at 18756 Coastal Highway, on Rt. 1 Harbor Square, Rehoboth Beach. Tel. 302-645-5444. Website? http://www.pickledpigpub.com. It opens at 11:30 a.m. Dinner starts at 5:00 p.m. Happy Hours from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m. Plenty of parking available.
As I write this post I am starting to get hungry. Even though the Pickled Pig Pub offers dinner, I have only gone for lunch. My post is based on my lunch experiences with my friend, Jody, and my son Michael at different times.
As you go into the restaurant you will have a couple of seating choices. Tables and booths. You can also sit at the bar, which is located towards the end of the restaurant.
A cheese board that changes regularly will get your attention.
The very first I came to the Pickled Pig it was because I wanted to try their fried pickles. I had heard so much about them. They are home battered, Kosher-dills with a spicy dipping sauce. They are truly delicious. So far, they are my favorites in the area.
This past year I have gotten into fish tacos more than ever. Every time I see them on the menu, I will try them. The Pickled Pig’s Twin Battered Fish Tacos with pickled red onions, jalapenos, shredded cabbage, pico de gallo, cilantro and a chipotle sauce will become favorites, without a doubt. I believe the day I had these ones, the fish used was grouper.
On one of my visits, my server, suggested I tried the Pork Flatliner. It turned out to be a really good sandwich. It is also pretty big. You might not be able to have the fried pickles if you are ordering this one. It had smoked pit ham, sredded pork, pork belly bacon, smoked cheddar, southern B.B.Q. style sauce and pickles on a toasted panini.
The Warm Pretzel Turkey Sandwich was tried by one of my fellow diners and he loved it. It is a big portion. The combination of shaved turkey, red onions, and cranberry cream cheese on a toasted pretzel bread, definitely hit the spot.
I love a good Cubano. The version served at the Pickled Pig did not disappoint. It was smoked pit ham, shredded pork, pickles, Swiss cheese and a Dijon spread on a pressed panini roll.
I do enjoy salads and I order them all the time; mostly for lunch. The Southwestern Salad at the Pickled Pig has grilled chicken, chopped lettuces, pico de gallo, queso fresco, plenty of jalapenos!!, tortilla strips and a chipotle ranch dressing. If you like jalapenos, this salad is for you.
Jody decided on the Asian Bistro Salad. I have had this salad before and it is perfect on a hot summer day. Or, when you want something a little lighter. It had crispy wontons, napa-bok choy cabbages, cilantro, carrots, spicy ginger vinaigrette, and peanuts.
A little local beer from Evolution was the perfect addition to their meal.
The Pickled Pig Pug has plenty of events going on at the present time. Their Beer Dinners are worth checking into. To find out about their events, please visit http://www.pickledpigpub.com/specials.php.
