This is a good place to casual dining and the prices are also reasonable and the staff is also quick and service.
Overall it is a really good place
First time at the pickle barrel! Pictured is a Ceaser, Taco, calamari, French onion soup and pot stickers. All of it was lovely aside from the fact that I prefer smaller calamari and not the large kind. I appreciated how we could choose just one taco or a few on one plate. I choose one because I wanted to go with a few other appetizers.
I like this pickle barrel. It's a comfortable oasis in the middle of what is sometimes a chaotic mall experience.
It's located in Vaughan Mills. I the nice weather seasons they have a patio that you can sit out on. As with most PB patios it's pretty great.
This trip I was with an octogenarian who preferred to sit inside. The inside is pretty great too.
Comfortable seats, lots of really great looking lighting. Music playing at a nice volume, loud enough that you can hear it but quiet enough that you can talk. No assault on the ears.
This place has the typical PB menu, something for everyone.
I got the Thai inspired beef salad. Which I thought was great as usual. My dining companion got the toasted chicken and avocado sandwich with sweet potato fries. She loved the sandwich. It was a monster in size. I had some of the fries. They were cooked perfectly.
It's a great place to duck into when the hunger strike and you are bargain hunting at Vaughan mills! You can rest your weary feet and grab so.erhung good to eat.

Breakfast here is great! The Pickle Barrel big breakfast (pictured) is a stomach filling savoury breakfast. And at this location, a great start before a day of shopping at Vaughan Mills Mall.
Trying this place for the first time , ordered randomly stir fry which ended up being amazing and also there veggie burger tastes good . Not that expensive but the location is built good inside the vaughan mills outlets .
After reading lots of weird reviews almost turned away but I just ha two mains and an app for under 50$ and the good was good staff was on the ball ! Will recommend to the next person for sure . And I don't know how they got our food so fast !
My girlfriend and I went on a weekday! service was good and food was delicious price was decent.. my wings were huge so it was worth the price.. i did not enjoy my smoothie it disnt feel like a smoothie but a watered down drink.. but other than that it was good :)
Amazing food! But again poor service
After a day of shopping at Vaughan Mills, stopped off at the Pickle Barrel for a late hearty lunch. It has been a while since I visited the Pickle Barrel, but I had a pleasant experience on every visit. The restaurant was full and we needed to wait 5-10 min for a table even though it was 4pm on a Sunday afternoon. I guess we were not the only hungry shopper that day.
Originally decided to come by for a coffee and dessert, however after looking at the menu, we developed a savoury craving. We decided on the Buffalo wings and the Montreal smoked meat; which in my opinion is great comfort food. The wings were huge, and much larger in size than the typical wing restaurant; and it was actually meat and not all batter. The wings were deep fried like most places, and had a buffalo sauce that was not too mild not too spicy. The meat on the Montreal Smoked Meat Sandwich was cut thinly, and an overall great deli sandwich; however I couldn't tell the difference between this sandwich, and a regular corned beef sandwich. It was missing the typical Montreal spices on the bark to give it the unique Montreal Smoked meat taste.
The Pickle Barrel is always a crowd pleaser, and the atmosphere, menu, and decor always reminds me of a Canadian version of the Cheesecake Factory. Definitely delicious after a shopping escapades, however don't know if I would purposely come her just for dinner.
The Pickle Barrell at the Vaughan Mills mall is your standard Pickle Barrel - nothing spectacular, but quite a decent option for you to have a nice Canadian/American kind of a meal. The food too is standard across all Pickle Barrels, and the service is friendly and prompt with no frills - what you see is what you get!
The food is a medley of burgers, sandwiches, pastas, steaks, grilled fish and the works. And of course, their famous milkshakes - and I'm talking massive here (see the photos!!). The burger was quite nice, but the spaghetti with meatballs was quite dry. The milk shake was divine - rich, creamy, and truly lip-smacking delicious!
My Canadian friend calls Pickle Barrel a very Canadian eatery. Curious, I visited the place with him and a few others. Interiors were amazing, waitresses hospitable, overall a good first glance. I ordered the Blueberry smoothie and chicken sandwich. The blueberry smoothie arrived first. Tasted heavenly, extremely filling (thank god I ordered something light like a sandwich.) All in all, it was a very satisfying meal for a decent price.
I imagine that this location is pretty much the same as any otherPickle Barrel place you might find yourself, and I have to say that I was pretty impressed with the service in the place.The P.B. is still a chain, so don't look for much individuality inthe the digs or the food, but it's overall pretty good. The burgersand grill options are good, but some of the pasta dishes arelack lustre. They still have 'Killer Shakes', their trademark milk-shakes at a whopping 35oz.I will say that that the place was packed, a little too busy for my tastes. Doubtless this is due to the franchise's location atthe Vaughn Mills Mall. So, if you're looking for a quiet venu,look elsewhere.
We stopped by for lunch hour on July 5, 2022. Ambiance was good and we were greeted by our server Rachel. She was pleasant to talk to and indeed liked to offer us the deals that would make sense with our kind of combo.
With regards to food, we ordered Zucchini pasta, make your own balini, Southwest Chicken Caesar. Food was good but in comparison of the portion size, price was good too. We ordered creamy tomato soup which they did not have to they offered minestrone soup instead which we gladly accepted however, soup was not at par. It wasn't hearty at all - no beans, very sparse vegetables and moreover it tasted like diced canned tomato being thinned out with hot water, salt and pepper. That is the only thing that we did not like. Other than that service and rest of the food was good.
“Finally! A restaurant that serves amazing milk shakes!”
Went out for dinner with my mom last week. We weren’t sure where to eat so we decided to go to the pickle barrel. Had Marcello as our awesome server.
I am so satisfied and impressed with service and portion sizes! I was looking for a place that serves decent milk shakes for the past 3 months. I wasn’t expecting this, it’s like the size of a pitcher and it’s only $6
Not only is the portion size huge and reasonably priced, but it’s also the best milkshake I’ve had.
Also, all of the other food that we order was delicious and also had enormous portion sizes - we didn’t finish it all and it took us days to eat the take-away.
It’s so nice to see a restaurant that is fair with their portion sizes post-Covid 19. They haven’t been stingy with the level of service that they provide to their customers and that’s a really nice quality to see.
Definitely coming back and recommending others (thank you again for having amazing milkshakes!)
Our waiter was very nice and charismatic. Me and two of my friends shared a nacho platter which was not bad. I had the low and slow hot Alberta Beef which I thought had a really good gravy. The bun it was ok.
Excellent food. The restaurant follows current provincial guidelines and seated us with social distancing in mind. Loved everything we tried, service was quick and our server was very kind. We hope to return soon !
Loved my visit to location, Service was awesome and food was great. I suggest stopping by if your shopping at Vaughan Mills. Definitely will be going back in spring to check out the patio.
