Pickle Barrel Cafe & Sports Pub - Milledgeville

Recommended by friends and did not disappoint. I had the fried grouper with fried Okra. It was so soft and flakey on the inside with crispy fried batter on the outside. The batter had an essentially good flavor (with just a hint of old bay seasoning I think). The Okra was fried to perfection, still tender on the inside. My dining partner got the Rueben Sandwich with battered fries and said it was really good. I noticed how thick it was and that the bread was pan toasted. Prompt friendly service, not too long of a wait. Friends said that it gets busy so we went at 1130 am and was immediately seated. It is a quiet sports bar feel, with a large and impressive menu offering a wide range of items. The price seemed about right for what we had. I look forward to coming back to try other things on

Nice spot overall. The food was okay—nothing really stood out—but the wings were great and definitely the highlight of the meal. The place itself was comfortable and a good spot to grab a bite, and our waitress was super nice and attentive, which made the experience better. Nothing that totally blew me away, but a solid place I’d come back to, especially for the wings.

Hadn’t been here in a while, was in the area and decided to stop in for a quick bite. The food was decent but the chicken tenders that I looked forward to had shrank in size. Even looking back on reviews from a year ago it seems they have cut the tenders in half and increased the price.

I will change my review if we go there again and it's a better day. It's bar food and it was not hot or fresh on our visit. Our waitress didn't want to be there. We should have just gone to a fast food place.

I first experienced Pickle Barrel when I visited my wife while she was on assignment over in Milledgeville. The food and service were AMAZING!! I forget the name of the waiter, but he did a damn good job taking care of us. I always order the boneless wings (lemon pepper) and two pieces of grilled fish seasoned with jerk and citrus. Oh, don't forget the islander sauce!! I'm looking forward to hitting the road visiting you guys again since I'm not from the area!!
