The Pickle Factory

This was a cute little vibe in Pepin right on the water. Very fun environment for the whole family and the good was good. Comfort food with a little kick to it.

Stopped in on our way through town in October. We sat inside with a beautiful view of the lake and fall colors. Lunch was delicious. The bloody Mary's had great flavor and spice. The fried pickle spears definitely a winner. Service was midwest kind.

First of all the place was so inviting because of Amanda’s kind welcoming, she treated us as though we were her friends. The food was fantastic, the vibe was laid back, not to mention the view was peaceful. I highly recommend this place. My wife and I will definitely be coming back.

It's a great place to stop in Pepin. Great views, service, and food. We ordered the pretzels bits, 1/2 fried pickle spears, and the Curds Ahoy burger with Onion Rings. They use a nice light battery on their fried items, which is nice. I liked that you can order a full size of 8 pickle spears or a half order of 4. The curds ahoy Burger was wonderful. I really like the bang bang saise they have on it.

Fried pickle spears were awesome. Had the BBQ pork and club sandwiches. Both were great and came out quick. Had a bit of the cheeseburger off the kids menu and honestly, it was probably the best burger I've tasted from a kids menu thus far. Plenty of space to hang out indoors or outside. Will absolutely be back.

My first time visiting this establishment, as I rode up on my bike I could tell I was in for a treat. This restaurant sat off the St Croix River, and it had a patio that overlooked the river. Mary was our server, she was friendly, kind, and very accommodating. I ordered the grilled chicken breast sandwich and a side of their homemade potato chips. The sandwich was delicious, cooked perfectly, and the homemade potato chips were a smash hit. The bathrooms were clean, I liked the decor, and the other patrons were very friendly. I love this little honeypot, looking forward to coming here again soon, thanks, Mary!!!

Although I wish they had more of a variety of all things pickles to choose from I can't complain about the veiws and the conversations, walks on the water and service. After a fun girls day, good conversations laughs, fun pictures on the giant chair and great lunch we headed back to the cities only to find out later I left my credit card! called the next day and the owner offered to mail it back to me free of charge and was so very thoughtful throughout the entire process, I didn't have to cancel my card and am looking forward to another road trip to make a stop at this great location on the water and thanking him in person someday! thank you pickle factory! also just a great town in general!

To start things off, the location is great, the staff was phenomenal, the owner was helping out everywhere he could, the food was fantastic, and I have to say my old fashion was one of the best. Highly recommend this place. They were awesome with all the kids we had and was a delight for my grandmother. Great family place to meet.

Amazing experience. Excellent food and friendly service. If you decide to go be sure to get a seat on the balcony (amazing view). The wait staff is efficient and friendly. We got our appetizers fast along with our drinks. Can't say enough about the positive vibe this place has. 5 stars highly recommend.

We were there with 50 others on a Corvette run for the 6th year in a row and other members longer. The food and service are always great. We go back a couple of times a year because of the staff.

Great place to have a meal by the river. Our waitress was super friendly and the food was great!

Fun stop as we made a circle leaving Lake City heading to Wabasha, Nelson WI, Stockholm WI and Red Wing. Fun location on river. Fried pickled were great!

We came here because it was a relatives favorite restaurant and it truly is a Awesome place great food, great lakeside views, great building. We came here for lunch and the burgers and fried shrimp were great! Nice staff too I forget her name but I think her mom runs the place. Very clean. 5/5 $$

When traveling south along the Mississippi, we often stop at the Pickle Factory. They have good pub food and a nice view of the river. And, we were told, it was once a pickle factory!

Super busy and wait was long. But after being seated was good. My food, BBQ chicken was excellent.

Young server was very helpful and attentive.
The kitchen got behind and wouldn't let the servers put in food orders, so she was working extra hard to keep us full on drinks, etc. This is the first time that I have seen the kitchen get behind like this, so still 5 stars. The food is consistently quality.

A great local restaurant with a wide variety of options for everyone in my family, with allegies, pickiness, etc. Great, friendly service.

Ordered the fish sandwich, delish, cheeseburger with fries for my grandson, burger very very tender and tasty, cheese curds with sauce also yummy 😋, we had an awesome waitress. Can't wait to go back.

Food is always great. The fish that comes on the sandwich could be a bit bigger and actually fit the bun, otherwise it's really good! I love sitting by the window or on the patio to get a great view of the river.

Love the place Great atmosphere...excellent food....wait staff and bartenders not very friendly...
